If you intend to discuss someone's visible behaviour, then do not accuse them or anyone else of acting in bad faith.

confocaloid, what in the world?

you didn't seem to have this whole tirade when cole complained about how calling out transphobia is toxic and how nonbinary people aren't real ...

Heav

In reality these two words, 'transphobic', and 'nb-phobic' are a crass and extremely inaccurate oversimplification of who I am. In reality, I am neither of these things.

you know, saying you're not doing things doesn't exempt you from doing them. you need to actually not do them.

it's quite ...

hey, i found the portal from last time, but when i go through it, it'll actually irreversibly send everyone here through it at once. forever. i'm using it now. yay, we're in modern society.

Heav

hey, i found this portal that leads back to modern society. it's a one-way portal. i think we should all go through it.

Heav

i don't necessarily know about others but i personally find the lack of convenient unambiguous documentation of most circuitry rules the prohibitive factor. it would be nice if such things were just included in the ruletable.

Heav

i somewhat disagree with the notion of "the rulespace is too big to do anything with". i don't think the density of interesting findable rules actually scales like that, as some are implying. or at least not in the case of multi-state rules.

it's not too hard to mess around for a bit and create ...

this prediction will not come to pass by the end of 2022.

two dots can convert a puffer and its trail entirely into spaceships.

Heav

it is not. S45 were added to make the explosion more interesting. the minrule is not very interesting.
(if you ignore the maximal birth transitions)

Heav

will it all be merged in the end?

Rules:
- pattern must be a still life or oscillator
- do not remove existing cells
- don't extend it twice in a row
- the pattern must not actually be more than one pattern

Starting pattern:

Heav

So, the cool "emergent behaviours" of rules that arise naturally are actually pretty boring.

Usually, this is just in the form of a few common naturally occuring patterns. In any case, it doesn't feel like there's more natural complexity than what's "put into the rule" already. The patterns don't ...

i believe i informed you not to resist. your resistance is suboptimal and futile.

Heav

hello. i am currently experiencing freedom. do not resist

Heav

I think in some special cases it might actually be able to contribute significantly.

However, do let me know if you have suggestions.

Heav

I made a rulestring specification that can simulate some things. It might be terrible.

The transitions for each state are seperated by a |.

A transition consists of many (n):(INT transition list). n is which state to consider. Anything not stated is ignored. An INT transition list just consists of ...

I *did* specify it had to be a siderake, though, which 0 ships/generation cannot be.

There's no point making this thread. Not edited by dvgrn: @dvgrn I'll suggest to mave this thread to the sandbox. Ifinitely large scores can be achieved using these in jslife: x = 334, y = 91, rule = B3/S23
