>>512066 There probably is I just balk at even caluculating pi even. pi formula feels complex to me
FormerRei@mobile
I just thought of some ways to do it but it'll take me a bit to type them out
FormerRei@mobile
Okay so have your program do that loop 500000 times then for the decimal digits cut it down to n digits and for the last digit Err n+1 digits And if that last digit is 5 or more increase the nth digit by 1 then drop the n+1th digit If the n+1 digit is less than 5 just drop it
FormerRei@mobile
That's probably the kind of solution they're expecting. Any formula that ta
Computes n digits of pi exactly given n is waay too complicated for it to be used here
Anno
I unlocked the solutions tab so forgoing the points I'd get from solving it myself the first solution is: from math import pi def my_pi(n): return round(pi, n)
I think I've already got a solution going to test it
Anno
>>512072 Pft. You know I was thinking that it's weird that your online course thingy was asking you to calculate pi when there's usually included functions to do that. Didn't occur to me that it wanted you to use that included function, hah hah.
>>512072 this happened to me many times when doing computer programming courses online i don't know why they even bother posing the problem if they let you just use a library with the fucking solution built in
Anno
It does familiarize you with the way basic programming is done.
Anno
It feels like cop out though, like you don't even get taught when it is reasonable to use the inbuilt function or when its best to devise something yourself or even just use the inbuilt function for a task instead of just typing the function and that being it.
Anno
But I was on easy. which has been easy so far
Anno
Well complex math would be way too much to expect of even a competent programmer. Since never mind the code writing, you'd have to know the mathematics behind the calculation. The people that wrote that pi function for you put in a fair bit of work. Or well the people that figured out the mathematic formula behind it.
Same with stuff like just using a pre-built function for getting information back from a data structure like an array. The people who originally put together those data structures made those functions for getting information out of the array for a reason! Don't let their hard work go to waste!
it's true that most advanced math and functions you could generally use are already written and possible to use in your program, it made me super butt hurt when i spent 4 hours solving a problem and then the solution page reveals there's a function to do it already in the test libraries
>>512146 Yeah, that's a good point. Probably something the online courses could improve on. Perhaps give a mini-lesson before the question that informs the user of the established functions in the libraries so they don't search around for hours trying to figure out what to do.
>>512163 your function is supposed to check for all letters in the second string matching the end of the first string, not just the last two like with "feminine" and "nine" = true
Anno
Oh I misunderstood I thought it meant check the last two letters on each word
Anno
Wow I misunderstood and it still passed all the tests on the site
https://www.express.co.uk/news/weather/968703/uk-weather-forecast-met-office-scorching-sun-june-heatwave-britain-summer-forecast Brief skim of the article makes it seem serious.
Hot and cold's all relative anyway.
Anno
>>512203 We don't have air cons and the humidty is very high. There isn't much of an infrastructure for heat in the UK
Anno
Those temperatures and high humidity would be pretty normal summer temperatures here though. At the least I'd hardly call it a heatwave.
Anno
Reading the article doesn't make it seem serious at all >>512208 26C is as long as it gets in the UK. it doesn't generally get hotter than that.
>>512210 wanna trade? you can keep it permanently actually it would be win/win >>512212 it can be pretty uncomfortable when it's humid yeah humidity makes it feel a lot worse than it is hot
Anno
Man I wish. I want to be baked alive instead of feeling cold and not wanting to get out of bed.
>>512212 I'm not really shocked, just playfully jeering. Like I said, it's all relative. I have a friend from Vietnam who would be in a warm hoodie at like 15C and complaining about how cold it is. She could go around in high thirties California summer weather in a fall jacket like it was nothing.
Anno
The heat here is really high it regularly goes over 26C but the humidity is so low it doesn't feel like much at all and the heat here is a lot of direct sunlight whereas in the UK it is trapped in the atmosphere even if it isn't sunny. it is completely different types of heat here to there
i would kill a hundred men to be able to enjoy 20C and 30% humidity every day though
Anno
I die in heat. I'm adapted to british weather, and prefer if its not sunny and hot, raining and cold suit me
Anno
If you're still considering a trip to Japan then, you might want to consider going in the fall or winter then. Their summer temperatures are insane, especially if you're mainly in their major cities.
Anno
I have no idea when I'll go I think I might go some time this year or during my uni one year abroad.
Anno
I want to go for Summer Comiket eventually. No way it would happen this year, but maybe in the future. I'd also like to go back for another Winter Comiket. That one's always tough though since I fly so long I need to leave on the twenty-sixty or I risk missing day one. Twenty-sixth, even. Christmas is always a big family event for my family so it's hard to leave so close to it.
comiket sounds really uncomfortable. it might be better in the winter at least it won't be so hot. but there's still way too many people in close proximity. If I did go I'd probably see the first crowd after standing in line and be like fuck it. Too much work.
Anno
It's definitely crowded to the point of absurdity. Even in cooler weather that doesn't change in the slightest. The experience of showing up for the opening early in the morning was a weird kind of fun though. Waking up at like 04:00 to be ready for the first train and riding the trains as they steadily got more and more packed the closer you got to the location, and then moving as a dense crowd as fast as you politely can to get as close up to the front of the entry crowd as possible. There's just so much buzz and anticipation in the air. I think it's an experience that's fun to try out at least once.
Anno
I hate being crowded in but I love being in crowds. People are just so interesting to be around.
Ko-Shi
I dislike being surrounded by so many police. Why are they all here now? Usually there's two at most, now we get four or five in here every morning.
Anno
Maybe they're anticipating people being more irritable and prone to incidents because of the summer temperatures. I'm pretty sure there's an observed correlation between the two at the least.
>>512229 Oh that's kind of neat. Really unless you -have- to have the cutting edge phone, a Pixel 2 or even OG Pixel are probably a pretty solid pick-up themselves. You're getting fairly marginal tech improvements by buying whatever's newest. But I bought the Nexus 6p within a year of its release so who am I to talk.

Oh yeah how was commie shithead weekend? I barely heard anything about it.

Rich people are fucking detacted though. I come across them all the time near the university, they legitimately have trouble understand a lot of societal issues.

Philanthropy and public service are decent future choices though.
Anno
Philanthropy is often just virtue signalling
Anno
Oh don't give me that shit. I hate it when people go "oh but it's not really them doing good things with their philanthropy because it's actually virtue signalling." Who the fuck cares if they're virtue signalling or not if they're actually providing assistance.

there was an older Puerto Rican man that was super radical though He's run a bunch of demonstrations and he came in and shouted about communism and protest for 10 minutes and then left to go protest the governor of Puerto Rico who was in Orlando this weekend that dude went really hard

Kirara 🚗
well you have to protest something like something specific you have to protest things that you can actually influence
a lot of protests are done to things people are powerless against protesting trump is worthless protesting a company working with ICE can be worthwhile
Anno
In the UK protests are easily shut down and the older population hate protests regardless of their purpose, except for the north which had all the miner protests but they got violently shutdown by thatcher

iheard some silly political things on the tv earlier and thats about the extent of it

im pretty radical so my favorite protests are riots
Anno
Whatever happened to laying off the political talk on /moe/.
Anno
I didn't know moe had any rules like that
Anno
Samu's not really fond of it constantly coming up.
I didn't know that. I don't think we focus endlessly on politics but if this board is supposed to be politic free, this is first I've heard of it.
Kirara 🚗
>>512408 i don't think this is necessarily a politics talk
Anno
I'm pretty sure it is. It's just the same anticapitalist/communitst or anarchy circlejerk that always comes up here.
Kirara 🚗
discussion of whether or not a tactic is effective isn't politics we're not talking about communism and anarchy in a way other than i was asked about my weekend there was a reporting of facts and not discussion of politics
Anno
>>512414 You honed into pretty strongly into very narrow part of the conversation. I don't think we were advocating anarchy, anticapitalist or communism.
I know there people here who get upset about politics like that but I don't think right now was anything like the discussions we had in the past and I'm not sure warning people to censor themselves in case they talk about things unsavoury to the boards is all the great an idea.
I fundamentally reject enforcing any policy, idea or anything through violent means As such riots, which are people protesting either for or against some policy or action violently, is in my opinion always the wrong way to do it Not to mention, riots damage private and public property and will lessen the support for whatever cause sparked the riot in the first place.
Maria
I always thought riots seemed like they end up damaging your own community more than whatever it is they're protesting against
>>512418 It damages your community, your case and makes everyone hate your guts

I might do Eular programming puzzles. since the maths puzzle with PI yesterday was interesting.
It was pretty amazing to take an incomprehensible formula and make into a working program. when I was younger I wanted to solve like unsolved mathematics problems even though I suck at maths
Kirara 🚗
>>512418 kind of depends there have been successful riots riots were essential parts of nearly every successful civil rights movement in the united states they have to be strategic and yeah, they have to scare people
Scared is a status that can lead to wrong actions, though Instead of thinking about why the riot happened, it might lead to "let's prevent this from happening again"

and not by "appeasing the rioters" but by making it harder or even impossible to riot or to arm riot police with even more effective equipment and so on

you busy? >>>/watch?v=U75S_ZvnWNk around 3:00 this guy is saying how the foundations of maths is currently built on set theory, and that it should instead be built on arithmetic of naturals i'm not really observant of the claim he's making that it's a currently established thing that it's built out of set theory i was wondering if you had any insights on that you seem to have a more broad mathematical perspective than me
FormerRei@mobile
Not really busy
FormerRei@mobile
>>512449 Generally yeah every thing is built on set theory. Well "rebuilt"
月
is there a granular sort of way you could explain that to me if not nbd
FormerRei@mobile
Uhhh I think its possible to do different formulations of mathematics not using set theory that are just as correct. But it just so happens set theory is really good.
月
building mathematics out of arithmetic of naturals sounds retarded imo i think this guy is quackery but i try to at least give stuff like it a listen because there's sometimes interesting threads of thought that are useful that manifest poorly
FormerRei@mobile

Rei, whats an interesting maths puzzle to make a program out of?
月
>>512456 solving a sudoku was a really interesting program to make imo
>>512466 >In graph theory, graph coloring is a special case of graph labeling; it is an assignment of labels traditionally called "colors" to elements of a graph subject to certain constraints. In its simplest form, it is a way of coloring the vertices of a graph such that no two adjacent vertices share the same color; this is called a vertex coloring. Similarly, an edge coloring assigns a color to each edge so that no two adjacent edges share the same color, and a face coloring of a planar graph assigns a color to each face or region so that no two faces that share a boundary have the same color.
FormerRei@mobile
Sudoku might be easier Although ToN could totally help you with graph coloring.
ToN
uh sure wait is that the thing where you just pick a color thats not touching you rthats pretty easy i thnk ive done it before
>>512466 yeah idk if you remember way long ago i was talking about sudoku a lot there are a ton of programs for solving them most efficiently, i was just trying to solve one at all my sense of algorithms is pretty top-notch but my actual coding senses are terrible

>>512483 i've done a lot of sudokus so it's really just implementing the strategies you already know it's a pretty straightforward game, so computers are really good at doing the 2D version we do
Anno
Oh wait, I think you shared a video about some mathematical stuff about sudoku I am suddenly remembering a bunch about it
月
>>512487 i dont remember that, unless you mean the video-stated P=NP problem which probably uses the N-dimensional variant of sudoku as an example of the P=NP problem did it have the chalkboard and the cheesy overdramatic music
my brain is a whirlwind of negativity and i don't have anywhere to outlet it or any reprieve from it i can't even really vent to /moe/ properly about it but i'm doing so anyway because idk what else
Anno
do you need something to focus on? I am still trying to figure out a 4x4 sudoku grid
I was literally gaslit into a psychotic episodde it's not very vague

by?

by /moe/ i think that was covered too
Anno
when? how?

2013 that might sound petty to still hold onto it which i'll grant how is a problem i probably don't want to address because it'll drag it out further, though it's my fault for even raising the issue in the first place sorry
月
it's just agonizingly relevant at the moment and it's a constant distress
FormerRei@mobile
I guess I just don't understand (you don't have to explain it) what that entails. I'll think about it
all the things i was supposed to forgive people for, they dont matter now they're of no consequence and i turn out being the asshole in these days for doing something compassionate that turns out personally seeming irreverent out of context nobody's given enough of a shit about me to consider any of it i'm pretty tired i'm not angry i'm just extremely tired
Anno
I don't think you are supposed to forgive anyone. I am sorry that you are feel ignored and unconsidered. I don't think // I don't actually understand a lot going on in terms of people on moe I just turn up and random share stuff or come up here because I don't have any other outlet. I enjoy you company but I haven't properly invested in anyone even thought they have invested in me.
You know, I was on a bike trip to maine to partake in lobsterfest and eat some lobsters, feel the fresh breeze, nothing more, nothing less during that time i had an SO who was killed in cold blood by a burglar, straigh up walked into the home and stabbed them in the throat i tried to talk to /moe/ about it, tried to cope with moe, got nothing several ignored me, sam sent me a personal email to tell me to be less negative, you disappeared for a year and a half, kirara lamented me for talking about psychology, dash tried to spread rumors of me stalking him, which moe believe and persecuted me for it lobster was actually the only persont // person to offer me any consolation at the time
so here i am now in a situation years later, never having had any reprieve from it, trying to offer consolation to someone who's in distress and being also lamented for saying it'll be okay fine kirara, i'm sorry i said it will be okay god forbit god forbid i'm trying to offer the kind of consolation i wish i had received but never did, and several weeks in a row it's the same thing i'm sorry i mentioned it, and i'm sorry i'm not as good as a support circle as the rest of the people you have available, but i'm offering the sort of thing i wish i even had available at the time i'm still not over it half a decade later, no i'm still upset people didn't even give me the time of day i'm still upset for everything else that happened, yes i'm trying to be a good person regardless please give me some decency i'm trying hard not to yell or be indecent about how mistreated i was then in comparison and i'm doing my best to be decent
FormerRei@mobile
Does talking about it help you feel better? Err having talked about it now
月
no it makes me pissed off and want to complain about a lot of things that never got cleared up like the gaslighting and rumors and the hatemail i received for literally four years in sequence i know those things aren't important and i shouldn't, but i still want to
月
i'm only left to feel guilty about talking about this and making a scene now, same as i was then i feel hopeless in all regards really
Anno
You are complaining about legitimate things that anyone would feel upset about none of those things were acceptable things to have happen to anyone. hatemail for four years is really fucked up. spreading rumours about stalking is really immature and fucked up gaslighting is cruel and fucked up.
>>512568 I don't think you should conceal their name if they did fucked up shit like that. and moe is fucked up. I really don't understand what is wrong with dash.
月
yes, i was sent images by someone who was drunk and they boasted about it in a thread, which later renegged and said i stalked them to acquire the photos and purged metadata from it /moe/s response was uniform in belief of them and i got kicked out of watching anime with the group for nearly a year, lost several friends, and i still can't talk about it because some people treat dash like a fuckin goddess of some sort because they're a lying shitbag whose MO is causing drama on every forum possible started a relationship with eku, abandoned them when radio moved to /moe/, tried to hitch with me, tried to kick me out of the community when i wasn't responsive in the way they liked, disappeared afterwards now eku is fucking dead
Anno
I didn't know that they had a relationship with eku and abandoned him. thats not right
月
yeah, i could tell you how it started and how it stopped and how much of a fuck they were before ever stepping foot on /moe/ too their whole gist was to make everyone feel bad about them for everything possible eku was really committted too he ditched out on eku for having other friends, and not in any calm manner straight cold turkey stiffed him and asked /moe/ at that point to push eku aside (radio was already purged off /moe/, but eku still visited) as a result, /moe/ started treating eku like shit when he visited for innocuous purposes it's really fucking sad and disgusting and i tend to keep things like this to myself but it's true
月
they were upset that eku would spend friday nights (radio night) with other friends instead of flirting with him it was a very hit and miss thing and the entirety of the relationship was based around thirsting for attention, which eku was a generous enough of a soul to give for the most part but when it got spiteful he got fed up
Anno
thats fucked up, I feel a lot of regret for not being on moe and talking to him more and for only coming on moe to relieve boredom. I brought eku a christmas present on steam and was looking forward to playing with him, and then I had move through january and lost internet and contact it really isn't fair for things to end the way they did for eku when he put so much work into others
月
life's a shit, /moe/'s a shit, people are only going to believe what fits their narrow worldview shit sucks, and no amount of exposition is going to change that i'll probably get ignored threefold for this rant because it involves a lot of things people don want to believe it's easier to imagine that i'm psychotic and delusional than to believe that dash constructed a victimized event to label me a stalker to get sympathy from sugoi at the time and it's easier to believe i'd lie about four years' worth of hatemail than to believe he did it out of spite or anything else entailed therein i'd have to assume people believed it in some regard otherwise i can't imagine why else i was so rejeced after the gruesome death i endured when i was chronically crying for help and receiving none, and only receiving contempt and rejection from the community
that's what i mean about gaslighting a psychotic episode i couldn't cope, and i had a psychotic episode following
Anno
Whoever ignores you for say what you have said is clearly uncomfortable with shit and should deal with that. drama causing people are fucked up.
Maria
>>512568 That sounds increadibly fucked up That's not right and it doesn't sound like you were treated right at all
Anno
>>512573 Moe back then was not mature at all. It would be fair if people acknowledged their immaturity back when you need support and this community was fucked up.
i say it'll be okay because i'm okay as a result of all of that bullshit, right? or at least i assume i am? so i'm not being dismissive i'm literally offering the only sort of advice i can offer the kind i wish i had this picture in retrospect looks a little smug and i dont mean it that way
月
>>512576 i cried for support day-in and day-out until people were sick of it lobster was the only one who offered it
it made me feel like a piece of shit for continually going on about it i felt constantly repressed by moe to shut the fuck up, and i still feel like i'm way out of line doing this now, but i don't care too much atm if it causes some distress now i'm not going to feel upset by it
Anno
I don't think moe is decent place to express yourself maturely, its vent with
i really don't want to feel guilt for saying something like "it will be okay" though i didn't even have that and i would have killed for that sorry again if my idea of consolation isn't functional enough but it's more than what i had to cope with
Anno
>>512581 Fuck em, you don't have to feel guilty for a consoling someone. its not your faulty if someone gets upset for a normal expression of "I'm here for you" basic intent
I don't know how to console people. I don't think you have to care for those that didn't care for you. its not even about being fair, you can't drain yourself and get nothing back from it, thats unhealthy, that is being used.
月
i can't be there for someone who wasn't there for me i hate to sound cruel but i have to be fair
月
i tried to make an effort and i wasn't appreciated idk what i can do any further i have to take care of myself since no one else will
月
sorry that this is out of nowhere but i've been feeling pretty peculiar and idk wha to do about it
Anno
when I feel fucked up or don't know what do with feelings, I disassociate from everything and try and find something to escape to. thats not very good advice but, I don't know a suitable answer to how to deal with that feeling. I don't find it easy to deal with.
>>512587 I feel really uncomfortable rejoin things I've escaped from, you // I don't even feel properly a part of moe since I left for a year and months. and I can't reconnect with friends I've not spoken to anymore, I . I don't regret escaping. I //
月
yeah i used to watch anime with /moe/ i'm sure i could do that again now but after years of exclusion i still don't feel comfortable doing it everything got so fucked up
月
i dont feel like i'm watching with friends anymore i dont feel anything from them i haven't even talked to rika or ika since that time seriously tilde and bang are whatever i feel like a non-person ever since the incident of a histrionic liar sullying my image to everyone because i didn't like them the way they liked me it's so fucked up
Anno
I don't think moe is a healthy place for serious stuff. and I don't think you can rebuild your trust with moe without people working to rebuild it with you instead of leaving it in the past and pretending it didn't happen.
月
every attempt i made to rebuild it was met with this interpretation that i was a dramawhore idk i'm so sick of it still am i'm still treated that way
Anno
I've never thought you were a dramawhore. there are plenty of dramawhores on moe.
I am // I ignore people I don't like very much on moe and I am not don't trust people in general.
月
dash was a dramawhore and their credibility mattered more than mine it sullied everything i appreciated your opinion though
Anno
I've never thought of you as a dramawhore. If there were contradicting statements back then I wouldn't have known who to trust over the other. I just tried to either keep my head out of it or stay neutral.
Anno
Everything I remember of you, is things I've wanted to do again but don't know how to appropriately do again. Learning stuff, watching videos, thinking about things. Ive never thought you as a dramawhore or shitstirrer. You do say things sometimes I don't understand and I know I don't reply to some posts because I don't know how to reply to them.
月
well hopefully four years' of silence makes this not an unmerited vent
Anno
it doesn't matter how long since it happened, it's merited because that shit was fucked up and you are well in your rights to be upset about it.
Anno
I hope there's food at home. I haven't really had much to eat today.
月
>>512597 same i want to make a pot roast or some baked chicken but i can't get to the store
Anno
I'd settle for just some pasta. I had meat almost every night last week and I could probably do without for a couple days.
月
i only have pasta and potatoes at home not a very versatile mix
月
wish i had some ground chuck or pork tenderloin so i could make a nice dish of fucking kill myself
Not microsoft brought it. and is probably going to "improve" it like they improve everything they acquire feature locking anything they can make money out of and limiting free code hosting I guess
Anno
That's a little bit hyperbole.
Anno
its a little hyperbowl but not like in the realm of fantasy

Samurai Lal'C !KW2DbpWwls
microsoft poisons everything they touch fuck em open source is not going to stand for this
Anno
I think that's a little bit hyperbole.
Ko-Shi
Yeah, open source is probably going to sit for it at the worst
loops are a pain. I can't figure see why this is an endless loops It probably something obvious
月
is the third else supposed to be three layers deep? second else*
月
yeah nvm that's not the issue
Anno
>>512711 When I was trying to debug endless loops in my code I'd put in some kind of text output at different shell layers to see where the infinite loop was starting.
Anno
>>512721 Yeah I usually try and do that. ah its stuck at len(box_line) = 1 this is a paaaaaiiiiinnnnnn
Anno
I wrote this terrible code and I have no idea what it is doing
月
>>512722 is it because you have an if for len != // len -1 != clues but no else on that level for when len = 1
Anno
>>512729 I wanted it to test each wait the whole line is fucked up why does my brain ignore obvious things fuck

not enough choline
Anno
Sudoku generation is way harder than I thought It is probably super simple but I keep super focusing on one part and losing sight of the whole point
月
i think i just fed in sudokus, not have a generation i may have manually input them i dont remember
Anno
This part was supposed generate a 3 element list as the first line in a 3x3 box from which I'd made the rest of the box and then from the first box make the rest of the 9x9 grid of 81 elements
月
i don't think one 3x3 box is enough information to complete a 9x9 grid from there would be many solutions
Anno
I meant like having X 2 1 3 X 5 8 7 9
and generating the next box along while trying ob ey the rules. but I think it either won't work is a super round about way of doing it. maybe I should make a 9 element list with the whole top line filled in for //
make a filled sudoku thing, eliminate random positions in it by replacing them with X might work?
月
not to sound rude but why are you trying to generate the same sudoku you're trying to solve it seems like reading or feeding one in would be more ... useful
Anno
>>512745 I wanted to try writing a generator for one and then make the computer solve it blind the generator and if I do it with the make a filled one uh wait. if I make a filled one its solving it in the first place. what wow I am dumb
月
it's okay, but making an accurate generator is straight up harder than a solver
Anno
I have no idea, they are both pretty hard for me to get my head around. I've deleted that nonsense piece of code.
So without that I have my code that produces 30 clues. random numbers from 1 to 9 I need to fill in a grid of 9x9 with these clues such that it obeys the rules of sudoku and is solvable.
hm, if 30 clues thats a 7x5 grid that needs to be solved. right? is my thinking right?
Anno
I don't really know what the current method of creating sudoku for general use is, but I could imagine that an automatic sudoku creation function would populate the grid with all the numbers and then "solve" the sudoku backwards. So essentially in making a sudoku creator you're making a sudoku solver.
月
>>512751 defining a solvable sudoku is really complicated much more complicated than solving a sudoku
月
>>512751 >hm, if 30 clues thats a 7x5 grid that needs to be solved. right? is my thinking right?
oops that should all be green text but, uh, i dont know what that means
Anno
I do that sometimes. its okay
well if there 30 clues they can't interfere with each other so they all have to solve. is my brain being retarded agian probably
月
well a 7x5 grid would be 35 clues, but more importantly, i dont think a 7x5 sudoku works it's gotta be 4x4 or 9x9 or matching square dimensions so i dont know if i'm following what you mean
Anno
I mean 6x5.
I just thought oh right I don't think things through
i'm not sure about python, but i used C and just made the arrays which mapped from the board layout then wrote in the comparisons that came from the rules, like elements from the same 3x3 grid couldn't be the same, from the same row couldn't be the same, from the same column couldn't be the same then tried out a few different strategies for how to find the missing elements efficiently rather than brute forcing it brute forcing it is still very quick for a computer though, but it's not very strategic to the game that's where you'd pencil in all the possible solutions to one space and then erase them as you progress until there's only one solution left for that space, fill it in, and then erase that solution from the other possibilities in that row/column/square, which some people do
i don't think i'd know how to go about making a sudoku generator i'm not a very good coder
Anno
>that's where you'd pencil in all the possible solutions to one space and then erase them as you progress This is always how I ended up doing the sudoku I got from newspapers when I was in high school, hah hah. I'd resolve all the obvious and easily-observable boxes but by the end of it I just couldn't keep track of all the possible directions a possible conflict could come from in my head alone. So I'd jot down the possible numbers in suuuuper tiny font in each box and work from that.
Anno
I will give on the sudoku generator. and make the solver.
月
>>512770 i think that's a wise step, since generating one is kind of an expansion of solving one anyway the intuition from the latter might help you make the former if you wanted i made mine to feed in manually because i have no idea how to have it read in from a different program or a website but if you wanted to use websudoku.com, all of its puzzles are confirmed solvable and you could feed those in manually maybe
I don't know if you saw my solution to find the largestnumber in a list of numbers.
I made this abomination which actually works.
just so you can see how stupidly my brain works
月
next time you could make a scrabble solver =]
Anno
A function to calculate the most points you can get given a tray of Scrabble pieces and a board situation would be kind of neat. But that would be an INSANELY difficult thing to develop.
>>512777 Yeah I think I have a general idea that it's absurdly difficult.
月
>>512776 oh god do you have any idea how ridiculously complex that would be i think that's bordering on lifetime-scale calculation times
Anno
I think it would depend on a couple of variables, but yeah, worst-case would be insanely long to calculate.
But like, given simple board states, or even an empty board, would simplify matters. If it just has to determine the best point configuation from...seven? random letters, that would be more simple. Aside from, y'know, considering every possible word created from those letters.
actually i can think of some quick strategies it could use, but actually verifying that it yields the highest points is very much more complex
月
>>512778 i think step one would be to read open letters (available to play off of ) from the board, add each of those uniquely to your 7 letters, calculate ideal words, then check if it could actually be played off that spot without obstruction that's a pretty simple strategy
for it to actually be comprehensive and thorough, it'd have to check strings of open letters that could be played in parallel to make possibly 7 two-letter words, etc, you know? and that, as they say, is fucked
Anno
Yeah. And also comparing possible options like getting doubled and tripled points from squares on the board.
月
>>512780 even that simple strategy i just came up with didn't account for appending a word e.g. PLAY -> PLAYS x STAMP
Anno
Or like TOOL -> RETOOLED I think that's a word at least.
Anno
Or wait that's not a Scrabble rule is it. I haven't played in so long, I'm fuzzy on the particulars.
月
or if BOT x BOG is played orthogonally and you plop an X down to make OX x OX for a double play on the X
Oh that's neat, I wasn't aware. My mother loves Scrabble-like games. They pretty regularly come up as suggestions for things to do when the family's at the cottage. Not that I'm up there often these days.
月
you have a cottage
Anno
Well, to be nitpicky, I don't. But yeah my family loves cottaging. My parents love getting out of the city and heading up into cottage country. My imouto and I are really the only ones who are more preferential to city life than a more woodsy location.
月
i'll go to a cottage with your parents and play scrabble if you don't want to i dont mind
Anno
Hah hah hah. I've been a little tempted to go up recently. But it's a 2.5 hour or so car ride and now I'd have to ride up with a dog in the car if I was going with my parents. And not only can I not drive myself I don't really have much of a reason to go up on my own volition.
Maybe someday some people will visit me and I can convince them to drive me up to the cottage. It can house like a dozen people if it needs to.
月
that's crazy big for a cottage i'd come visit if i could i'm p poor and need my passport renewed regardless or else i wont be able to go to mongolia though or canada
Anno
It probably sounds kind of big but I think it's just good at compacting people. We've got like two bunkbeds and one small detached bunkie building that you could cram like four-six people into if you absolutely had to. More comfortably it could probably hold half a dozen to eight people. The whole cottage I mean.
I'm a little remiss I'm not as enthusiastic about cottage life as the most of my family though. My parents are thinking of selling it within a few years or so, they say it just wasn't quite what they endedu -ended up having in mind for their retirement place. They'd like to get out of the city and live full time out in those parts of the province once they retire. Lately they've been looking at more larger estate-style properties as options instead. I haven't really said anything about it to them since I don't think I've got much of a right to opine since I've never really taken advantage of it, but I'd rather they have a cottage on a lake than some sprawling chunk of land.
I spent all my childhood summers on lakeside cottages and even if I'm not big for cottage life I can't deny there's some sentimentality there.
月
half a baker's dozen
月
i've lived by lakes most of my life i do not fancy them mosquito hell, way too many critters everywhere's got critters but lakes got it wore
Anno
Yeah, I can't deny that. And especially with cottages there's some weird insistence that things have to be "rustic". Outhouses and no local water infrastructure so you've got to truck in huge jugs to have easy access drinking water. The first cottage we had was water-access-only too, so you had to park the car at a lakeside dock, cart everything down to the dock and load the boat up, and then unload and haul everything into the cottage. A lot of lakes in cottage country tend to be pretty bowl-ish too, so there's almost an inevitable slope you have to climb to get up to level ground to build on. So there's always a fleet of stairs from the dock to the cottage.
月
worse*
月
septic tanks too don't forget have fun spendin 150 bucks to get it pumped every time, limiting your flushes, not having curbside trash pickup such that you have to now haul all your bags up to the dump site, but until then having to keep the trash bags nearby which attracts more critters
Anno
At the least we've never had septic tank issues, I think? Taking trash to dump sites was always a "thrill" though. Plenty of bears up in cottage country, ayup. They sure love their localized conglomeration of trash, they do.
it's a flight of stairs lol a fuckin fleet of stairs
Anno
Right yeah. On the other hand, the cottage we have now, you wouldn't be wrong calling it a fucking fleet of stairs. It's like nearly two-hundred steep steps and like three landings to get through before you're at the waterside. Once you're down there you might as well commit to being there all afternoon because the trip up and down again just isn't worth whatever you forgot or neglected to take with you on the first trip down.
Anno
I hate the seasonal maintenance part of cottaging too. Lakes freeze, so you've got to take your docks in and out of the water every spring and fall. If you've got a boat, that's got to be brought out of the water and stored up for winter too. At least our current cottage, the building, is proofed for year-round use. You can get drinkable water in the winter and the heating's godo enough that you're not frozen to death the moment you take five steps away from the fire. For a few years we'd always go up as a family for Christmas. That was nice, I do miss that.
月
it's the management of those lakeside communities which break the camel's straw for me it's always being traded off between new owners and management and they're always "figuring it out" each time and fucking it up screwing up the lake, common grounds, "roads" if they can be called that, sewage/electric/gas lines etc they're just always tryna do shit and fucking it up because everyone's profiteering except they're bad at it because they're country af
>>512804 I never paid much attention of course, but I don't think the lake associations on the two lakes we've cottaged on were particularly miserable. At the least I don't recall my parents being particularly frustrated with them at any given time. It might in part be that that "home owner associations" aren't really a huge thing up here. Culturally, the way they aggressively councilize things isn't common. All I know is community utilities like common-use docks and parking lots were maintained, and roads were...eventually cleared of snow once it started piling up.
My family's pretty low-key too, so if there were any nonsense like not being rowdy or trashing the lake, it was never something we had to consider as affecting us.
月
>>512807 did you ... hard code that specific puzzle into the program?
would have taken a fair bit of time coding in something that would query you for inputs anyway so for an exercise, i don't see any difference >>512809 i wouldn't call it a homeowner's association development of those areas are still a vested commercial interest though roads to pave, docks to build, electric lines to run it tends to be horribly in shambles too, all the infrastructure
if it's a popular retreat location then it can be a little bit better in that regard, but then it's not as much of a retreat either, yknow?
Anno
My brain keeps wanting to solve 1 box wait you can solve 1 box ... rgith
Anno
wow I don't trust myself
Anno
>>512814 Yeah I don't really see it as much of an HOA but I think there's definitely parallels between the two. I think a lot of those things are handled by the local county affairs. Canada has a lot of what we call "crown land", land which is owned by government and not privately owned. It's probably a lot more straightforward to run services like power and roads through this land and not have to worry about which cottage owner you're treading ont -on the land of. Again, I'm not familiar with how this was all handled but my assumptions were that the broad strokes stuff is handled by municipal authorities and institutions.
Though I do know that the lake we currently cottage on has an association that collects dues for keeping the gravel roads...gravelly and to hire ploughs for snow. And probably to maintain public utilities like common-use docks.
月
"crown land" reminded me that there's a place in canada called cuckold's cove lol
>>512818 Was Cuckold the founders last name or something?
Anno
>>512818 Yeah but that's in Newfoundland. They're all nutters out there in the Maritimes.
月
i wouldn't mind going to nova scotia
Anno
Yeah, no, tomfoolery aside the Maritime provinces are really lovely. My family did a camping trip tour out that way one summer and it was a lot of fun. I'd like to go back and see parts of those provinces again on my own time.
>>512819 Looking on a map, it's not really all that far from St. John's, the provincial capital. It might've legitimately been a place for lovers in a tryst to meet up away from the prying eyes of their spouses. I can't seem to find a history of the cove though.
Anno
I really want to travel more. But I'd need some kind of vehicle. And money. Money for the vehicle, money to be allowed to legally ride the vehicle, money to travel on. Time's kind of crucial too. I've kind of given up the easiest time of my life to travel. The older I get the harder it is to escape the responsibilties and obligations of real life.

How old-fashioned. It's really endearing how some parts of the Internet never change. History is just frozen in time there.

>>512823 i wish i had travelled more when i was a fresh adult and had some hard-earned money saved up from underaged working, i wanted to go to the mediterranean for a couple years then join the peace corps got involved with someone who i guess was lusting for some senior-year romance and wasted all my money on having a place to live with them for the following four years instead i was wary about my decision then and i still regret it now and now i'm a huge ball of anxiety and it's hard for me to travel to the store, much less across seas
Anno
I like how there a lots of really old websites on the internet still like homepages not updated since the 80s
Anno
>>512826 Yeah. I yearn to do some kind of spontaneous, travel to a destination and figure out the details when I get to them sort of travelling, but on the other hand I know I'm a perpetually terrified and cowardly creature. I mean I can barely even drive a car on quiet residential roads, let alone highways and major throughfares. I just don't know how to conquer my constant terror and anxiety over stuff like that.
I guess at the least I got to travel to Japan and do the road-trip with the money I saved from that previous bank job. But I still wish I could just go somewhere. Just drop life for like a week or two and go somewhere else. It's so hard though.
kannagi, you still up? you might enjoy TIS-100 and Shenzhen IO they're games that are really built around the kind of thinking you use when programming, so it might be a fun complement to your learning
Anno
This cold front fucking sucks. It was mid-twenties or something late last week and now it's 12C outside. I want to be warm again.
Anno
>>512830 Oh ta, I have played a little of TIS-100. I haven't heard of Shenzhen IO before though
I'm still trying to work on this sudoku all you need to fill in a line in sudoku is all the numbers on the row of that missing number and all the numbers in the colomn of that missing number AAAA its more complex that that
>>512833 Yeah that'd be cool, I don't know if you get fustrated with my terrible problem solving skills *you'd
infinifactory too, though it's a little less so shenzhen IO seems really cool if you ever wanted to play those i would be very interested in watching, if you'd like to stream i have some difficulties playing games these days but i still enjoy them vicariously through watching
yes I am not even good at effectively solving sudoku I should have looked up about good ways of solving sudoku, although that feels like cheating.
What I do as a human, is check the row and column of the missing number, put in a number that isn't on the row and column, try do that for each number in the box while making sure not reuse numbers from the box lemme just check that I said something sane Yeah I think I do it like that.
huh, like pencil them in until you find the correct one? sudokus should only have one solution, so there's a bit of trial and error sometimes
what's your structure look like? are you storing the space variables as anything special, or are you just doing a lot of if statements to compare them?
one thing that might be interesting to do is have each space already contain nine possibilities, then take a given space, look vertically, horizontally, and around its local square to remove all certain spaces from its array of possibilities when it only has one element left in the array, its value is certain and can be filled in that would be a deductive sort of way if that's how you intuitively play sudoku
inductive reasoning seems like it might be quicker but more complex i'm not quite sure how i'd program that, but it's how i play sudoku i see which numbers there are most of and try to get those cleared up in various boxes first, because if there's 5 or 6 squares that all contain a given number, it's often possible to find where that number is in the remaining boxes, and every number you clear up restricts hiding space for the other numbers it seems really complicated to try to program that though; i dont know how it'd be done
>>512836 Sorry for slow reply. It took me longer than I though to make somethings more sensible.
I know that there is a 9 on line 2 and a 9 on line 3 so it must be a 9 in line 1 maybe that is a better way to solve things?
Its hard for me to think it all up in my head a once. I have to work it out and fuck it up before I get to something sane.
月
yeah, the top-right zero of the first square is the only place the 9 can go, because it's blocked off by the 9 in lines 2 and 3 maybe playing some sudokus would help bolster some imagination of how to do it i would point out though, in addition to numbers missing in row/column, you'll want // oh nevermind you've got that right above it i didnt see that
can you set each 0 to a variable and, for each variable, have a corresponding array of 1-9 and do an if check to cross off what is already in that row/column/square? i know that's potentially 81 variables and seems like a lot of work but you should be able to do like a loop counter or whatever it's called to do it procedurally? i'm not really familiar with what all python can do it's probably got all sorts of cool stuff
I'm doing this in a really ugly way just to solve the first square and then I'll try to clean it up a bit if that doesn't involve rewritting everything. because of how shittily I wrote it
Anno
so the above I've got all the information solve one square in the first box. so I just need to rule out all possibilties and make it into 9 so 2nd line has a 9 in it 3rd line has a 9 in it row is missing a 9 and column is missing a nine eh wait
Anno
yes that right
月
>>512840 Yes, and that's what I was referring to about an inductive process it seems really complicated to approach it that way and i have no idea how because im a dumdum if you do it deductively, at this point, the program can only know that that space cannot be a 5, 3, 2, 1 4, 6, or 7
which imo is easier logistically if you've got an array 1-9, it already performed a check for numbers it can't be so it'd look like [8, 9] from the original [1, 2, 3 ... 7, 8, 9] as it removes one element for each check and you can leave it at an 8, 9 and move to the next square by the time you loop back around for a second pass, a lot of it will be cleared up and you can figure out if it's an 8 or a 9 then solving it square by square is definitely not going to work because not all squares are going to be solvable until you parse the information out of the other squares
Anno
oh right this is going to have do it all over again each time I fill in a square too, thats a pain dammit
Anno
>>512842 oh dammit, you are right. I can't solve it square by square
Anno
moon I'm going insane
月
what is wrong
Anno
I wrote 200 lines of nonsence code again. I'm going to over your post carefully and try and work out an algorithm instead of focusing on a small part of a big problem.
sometimes you gotta do a lot of nonsense in order to get a little bit of sense sorted i do it all the time it's part of the thinking process and it's good that you're doin it though i worry that you haven't gotten any sleep
well, did you write some row/column/square checking thing that compares the square to what's around it? then you've gotten some useful code out of the nonsense
Anno
I did help me out thinking about it but it is essentially 200 lines of code to solve one square on single box in a sudoku puzzle somehow I got lost in my process of writing of the code that it went from solving the sudoku puzzle as a whole to solving on square of one box of the uzzle.
You might facepalm over this I am not sure I did things very usefully but it was fun. fun in very fustrating way I don't approach things in sensible ways.
月
>>512851 even things that seem simple aren't very simple when you have to define a granular way to do it don't feel discouraged by any means it took me a long time to make the one i made like i think i worked on it for several weeks
Anno
I might be able to make the col and row checking sensible. I don't understand how people figure things out quickly, I zoom in one part of a problem and try and solve it and keep iterating and throwing away solutions until it fits which is a pretty inefficient way of doing things. but it is what is natural to me.
月
people do things quickly by having done them slowly before what you're doing is completely natural i do it all the time with everything, even maths still today i'll have something pretty simple that i'll spend a long time wrestling with from all different angles stuff just takes time to sort out once it's sorted, it's much quicker >>512855 that mindset is the only thing keeping you back it's so incredibly natural, but people don't usually showcase their struggles, only their achievements, so you never see it in other people e.g. a ballerina's goal is to make the most difficult things look effortless
Anno
It doesn't feel natural, It feels like I'm an incredible imbecile.
Anno
I think it doesn't feel natural to me, because my mom and the people around her were PhDs, really smart people and they // my mom would try and teach me stuff and I'd have trouble grasping it but my mom would solve it so easily and quickly and the it would make sense. like in hindsight I can't even understand why I would do something when if you think about it properly it would never work. but it never occurs me to me.
It was fun, I enjoyed talking to you about it. and I learned a few things.
月
eh you're really overcriticizing yourself as someone who TA'ed in math and tutored, i've seen people struggle for hours with stuff that, once they got, took them seconds to do later i've done it myself when i was trying to learn functions, which are fairly simple things, and this was after high school i had to go back to such fundamentals in math because i was so confused and clumsy and i had to re-sort myself took me forever, but once i got it, everything was smooth after that i think you might just ... i'm not sure the word when you're biased towards only what you see 90% of people's struggle is hidden and they went through that part already, so what you see is the polished result
your code i'm looking at in pastebin looks fine as far as developing an approach you'll probably rework it and try a different approach idk what you think is weird about that. that's like the definition of problem solving and how everybody approaches any puzzle try stuff, get a feel, if it doesnt work then try something else especially with something like coding or math, where you're only working with certain "tools" that you already know how to use and are still learning, you want to explore how to implement them. and inevitably you'll often realize, "Oh man, why'd i just spend two hours building this up this way when i could have used this other tool i forgot about and rarely use" that's so common in coding
>>512857 Thanks, I just not used to the idea that everyone works through things like this. I have in my head I guess that most people solve things easier ways and I'm doing it incompetently.
I dunno, I don't have a lot confidence in my abilities at least in comparison to others. anyway
I updated the pastebin and this is the final product before I give and scrap it for the next version I guess.
It solves one square on the sudoku grid. I could iterate it horribly by. putting the solved place in and drawing up the new grid and then doing the whole process again and again? I think
月
how did you get the solution to be 9? i mean, how did you get the program to arrive at that solution i understand why it's 9 but how's the program doing it
I gather all the numbers in box1 I know what is already used up in the box1
then I get all the numbers in the row and all the numbers in the column and then in the 2nd and 3rd row of box1 I get all the numbers for those
I then test for all the numbers in box1 are any not in row, column, and the 2nd//
missing from the 2nd row and 3rd row. and that leaves the only possible solution which is 9.
so missing from row 2 is: 1,5,6,8 missing from row 3 is: 2,3,5,6,7,8 row = 4,6,7,8,9 col = 1,3,4,5,8,9 actually row and col are wrong backspace not being avialble here is annoying. row = 5,2,3,1 col = 2,7,6
the only missing number from all those is 9 It doesn't properly work though to be honest. I think? who the fuck knows.
Well at the least with row 2 and row 3 having 9s in them and only one space in row 1 it has to be 9.
月
>>512862 that works in that square but if the 5 or 3 weren't there it wouldn't i'm only talking about that specific line and not what you posted above, which looks a lot more comprehensive you should get some sleep though!
>>512871 sometimes all you need to figure out a problem is to sleep on it trying to wrack your brain to figure out a new way to think about it while you're tired is difficult

inuyashiki is about the ultimate edgelord vs the ultimate carelord as immortal robots it's actually a really good story blue and i followed it closely when the manga was going
it has a man with a mission track so you know it's good though
i tried a big person dose of adderall today, 20mg, the normal size i'm not feeling anything more stimulating tbh i'm just more tired, groggier feeling idk
i'm not sure if i would notice a difference between like 10mg and 20mg but there seemed to be a significant difference between 20mg and 30mg for me i still feel really sleepy after 7 or 8 hours either way though
idk man just crush up 100mg and snort it

or like this: >>>/watch?v=qDVNYo2Jw3A like, i've seen this pop up in my recommended a ton, despite not using youtube to watch any cartoons or have anything related to it on there every time, i say "Not interested" with the reason "I don't like the video" so today i was so irritated with it that i opened it in cognito and watched it and everything about it was exactly as terrible as i thought it would be like precisely so i can't stand it

trying to look up videos about new complement inhibitors used in oncology since asco just happened and everything is like "What are complement inhibitors? All you need to know!" and there's nothing that i need to know in there i wish i could have gone to asco fuckin rich people
Anno
I am watching a video about KFC in Japan and just noticed that it as ASMR in it and I was wondering why the person was whispering. how annoying!
>>513080 asco is the american society of clinical oncology they just had their annual conference, during which i know a lot of keynote sessions and information about new clinical spaces for complement inhibitors in oncology, that is, so treating cancerous tumors there are some interesting new small molecules [sic] compared to other immunologics out there and i've really wanted to hear updates on some research and see the actual research data but it's all behind a paywall and there's not even access to the information on the kinds of studies being done or by which organizations not because it's specifically not public but because it's not deemed interesting enough to the public for anyone to make it publicly available
i just wanted to see some live footage like it said i guess it was live footage of a television broadcast with some three-second clips narrated over? idk i get really inpatient when there are videos about a topic and then the video opens up and is like, "So, what is [topic here]? Well, I'm gonna tell you in a minute, but first I just want to thank you guys for coming here and give you a brief update. So next week I'll be going to .... and it'll be a ton of fun and I'll be sure to make a video on that, so keep your eyes peeled!" like, i dont even want you to start off with explaining what the topic is if i'm looking for it i must already know what it is, much less the four minute blog i know it broadens user appeal and reaches out to more people to make it very accessible, but it becomes so formless and indistinguishable from the rest of the noise because nothing's being said of substance
i know i'm just being really nitpicky but whatever it's more a concern about the world that i'm living in that that's what is most important than what the people are doing
no, i think it's something more acute than that it's frustration that the way we're personalizing data is geared towards certain personalities moving forward with the organization of information, it's increasingly going to become a barrier for outliers to access information because personalization will be broad instead of accurate the way most people feel and behave is going to dictate the kinds of information personalization that's available to everybody which has always been the case really, but i don't feel comfortable with how it will play out with the increase effect the information we're exposed to will have on our lives in the current era and the future
so yeah, i was being nitpicky i guess, but it's because companies are currently bent on personalization and the scope of it is marginalized

I don't like the fact that nearly every video about a topic is about the reaction of a personality to that topic rather than specifically the topic in neutral manner

i feel like the integrity of information and processes is crucially important going forward and that we're being incredibly reckless i also feel that it's important to voice that and fight against it because that's how the world works, nature red in tooth and claw the importance of it to an individual or group makes that individual or group the voice that has to fight for it the longer i go without my sedatives the more irritated i've become with my longstanding mentality that whatever factors contribute to the future are the deserved ones and feeling like i'm separate from the system i'd normally scoff off the agitation as an effect of not being on my medication but i'm seriously feeling differently now it's definitely not easier though

I'm thinking about how I store the sudoku numbers. in my previous code, I just stored each box of 9 numbers in a list of 3 e.g box1 = [[5,3,9],[2,4,0],[0,0,0]]
Which is 5 3 9 2 4 0 0 0 0
0 being the empty parts, since 1-9 are only used in sudoku. I wonder if that is the best way to store the information.
to reference the first line I have to do box1[0]. second line box1[1] and third line box1[2] and inside those lines for 9 in on the first line I have to: box1[0][2]
and the for each box i need to make a list labelled box1 to box9 which is a lot manual work. and you can 't reference the box because the number is non iterable because it part of the variable name.
what I could do is a 3 layer list called box: box = [[[5,3,9],[2,4,0],[0,0,0]],[[2,1,0],[0,0,9],[4,0,0]],etc] so the first box is box[0], the first line is box[0][0] and the fist number of the first box of the first line is box[0][0][0] I think that would make more sense or maybe thinking in terms of boxes is wrong, and it should think in terms of lines top and bottom *up and down
Anno
and instead of search for the first empty cell (i guess?) I am going to search for rows occupied with the same numbers to find positions where numbers cannot be anywhere else and fill them in, I'll see how complex that is to do.

>It Gets Better is an Internet-based 501(c)3 nonprofit founded in the United States by gay activist, author, media pundit, and journalist Dan Savage and his husband[1] Terry Miller[2] on September 21, 2010, in response to the suicides of teenagers who were bullied because they were gay or because their peers suspected that they were gay. Its goal is to prevent suicide among LGBT youth by having gay adults convey the message that these teens' lives will improve.[3] The project has grown rapidly: over 200 videos were uploaded in the first week,[4] and the project's YouTube channel reached the 650 video limit in the next week.[5] The project is now organized on its own website, the It Gets Better Project,[5] and includes more than 50,000 entries from people of all sexual orientations,[6] including many celebrities;[7] the videos have received over 50 million views.

>>513136 >living termites are used to suture wounds How does that work?
That really fascinated me so I looked into it. Apparently there are some termites with very large mandibles and they get the termites to bite the wound which kind of pinches it closed, and then they take off the termite's body, so the head has its mandibles locked in place and can't release the pressure. They do it with ants apparently, too.
ToN
that actually dors sound kind of cool if a little horrifying
>Soldiers have a medicinal use. For surgical purposes, they are used to suture a wound (Rwanda: Toro). The mandibles of the soldiers are applied to the edges of the skin which are drawn together over the wound. When the soldiers bite, their bodies are snipped off. The row of mandibles is left in place until the wound heals. Ground soldiers are also rubbed into cuts made in the forearm in order to make somebody a good boxer (Zambia: Tonga). https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5270236/
It's really an ingenious method, albeit probably horribly unhygienic. Maybe the people that use that method are better at fighting off whatever terrible bacteria the ants carry.

>>513163 you can replace organic with emergent if that makes more sense the developing signalling landscape of emergent systems the term language isn't about human spoken language, but the signalling functions that evolve organically from a system's entropy progression dynamic in that the signalling patterns expand from local systems and are influenced and changed throughout the global environment through feedback with other systems

By the way, using an armored unit doesn't really matter anymore. A low BST mage with a unique weapon will contribute more to your team BST than an armored unit without one, unless the armored unit is like +2. A low BST mage with a unique weapon at +2 will contribute far more than that armored unit.
My V Hector/Grima/Fjorm/Seliph team gets up to 718. Hector and Grima are +2, Seliph is +3. My Seliph is very powerful. Unfortunately, he's not done yet, though.
ToN
the julius lene valter fgrila combo is only missing one unique weapon
also valter with 40 speed before buffs and swift sparriw is whew
I play defensively so speed isn't important for me. I just hit hard with counter attacks. If you don't kill my Seliph on your first attack, he's hitting you twice with 51 atk, and then he gets +7 atk and +7 def going forward. If he doesn't kill whoever attacked him with the counter attack, they get =5 atk /// -5 atk and def, so they're dead pretty much no matter what. I don't have Divine Tyrfing on him yet, though. So he's not full power yet.

I like that julius and valter can be mixed phase
julius laughs at anything ranged exepct powerful arrows and valter with def tactics can tank some melee hits and slam them back with a special usually

>>513211 Yeah, familiarity with the method is an important step in creating a programmed method for solving them.
Anno
like I can see that position can only be either 7 or an 8. but I can't decide if it is a 7 or 8 until it I get more information maybe I can use that? Like store that it can either be a 7 or 8 and when enough information is found fil l it in. but I wonder how you store that sort information while then moving on to the next one. the brain does a lot of stuff when you think about it.
