Suggestion Details

The documentation states that

You'll need a compatible GPU to run the examples.

As someone, who was interested in the puzzles, but don't have a compatible GPU, I had to look for a workaround and apparently Google Colab can be used to run and debug the examples.

The free tier gives access to a T4 GPU, which is supported according to the FAQ. So far I haven't faced any problems while working through the puzzles with it either.

Also, someone with a subscription has access to L4 and A100 as well, which are both supported too.

I wonder if it worths mentioning this in the docs to help those who find themselves in a similar situation. Like people who are intersted in the puzzles, but don't have access to a supported GPU.

Thanks for creating the issue! I'll include a section specifically for running the puzzles on Google Colab and the limitations of Mojo in older GPU architectures like T4.

Actually, Kaggle also offers 30 hours of free T4 GPU each week, so it is another alternative next to Google Colab.
