Pyribs v0.8.0 is now available! @pyribs v0.8.0 adds support for new algorithms (Novelty Search, BOP-Elites, and Density Descent Search), while making it easier than ever to design new ones 🧠 Here are the highlights 🧵

Daily @pyribs tweet #1: My favorite part of the lunar lander tutorial is how fast it became. The first version took 2 hrs to run, but by reducing the CMA-ME iterations and integrating Dask, it now runs in ~20 min! Fast runtime is important for a tutorial that all users start with
