Got DigitalOcean Droplet to Cloudflare Tunnel to work well enough.

Randomly read "Stochastic Rounding 2.0, With a View Towards Complexity Analysis" today. The idea is great. Ideally implemented by hardware, though I think you could do okay in some situations by pre-generating your pseudo random sequence in memory and sliding through it as you perform your computation. Side-side idea on that: Given a sufficiently "mixed" random sequence, just cycle over that repeatedly? Once you use the stochastic rounding, you can:

If the hardware implements it for us, then I want to know more about how well documented that behavior is in the instructions, and whether you can see and/or set the seed.

Any applications I can do? Seems to apply to ML, gaming, ...
