Single neuron neural network written in COBOL launched on September 4, 2020 with 94 votes, #431 of 3,898 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 6 years on.
In plain words
This project implements a single neuron neural network using COBOL, a traditional programming language rarely used for machine learning. It is designed for developers interested in exploring how neural network fundamentals work or those experimenting with unconventional language choices for AI tasks. The implementation demonstrates that basic machine learning concepts can be expressed in legacy programming languages, making it a curiosity for computer science enthusiasts and COBOL programmers alike.

Almost eight years ago I launched an online “Linux sysadmin course for newbies” here at HN. It was a side-project that went well, but never generated enough money to allow me to fully commit to leaving the Day Job. After surviving the Big C, and getting made redundant I thought I might improve and relaunch it commercially – but my doctors are a pessimistic bunch, so it looked like I didn’t have the time. Instead, I rejigged/relaunched it via a Reddit forum this February as free and open - and have now gathered a team of helpers to ensure that it keeps going each month even after I can’t…
