I remember Dani posted something like this before:
I think it was like "is 58 a number"
Why is "edible" more popular than the one below?

I feel that "easy to get out of clothes" should have been more popular a search than "edible"


Is mud edible?
It depend on what's in it, but it wouldn’t be terribly pleasant a meal. It's like eating really wet dirt. With probably a lot of insects, weeds, maybe some fungi, and other stuff. I’d say if you had to eat mud don’t do it near buildings or lawns since those may be full of fungicides/herbicides/insecticides.

f(3,1,4)=

Code: Select all

6f(6,0,4)
144f(4,6,3)
144*(4!*4!!*4!!!*4!!!!*4!!!!!*4!!!!!!)f(4!!!!!!,0,3)
864*(4!*4!!*4!!!*4!!!!*4!!!!!*4!!!!!!)f(3,4!!!!!!,2)
864*(4!*4!!*4!!!*4!!!!*4!!!!!*4!!!!!!)*(3!*3!!*3!!!...3!!!!!!!!... where the last one has 4!!!!!! !s)f(fact^4!!!!!!(3),0,2)
1728*(4!*4!!*4!!!*4!!!!*4!!!!!*4!!!!!!)*(3!*3!!*3!!!...fact^4!!!!!!(3))f(2,fact^4!!!!!!(3),1)
1728*(4!*4!!*4!!!*4!!!!*4!!!!!*4!!!!!!)*(3!*3!!*3!!!...fact^4!!!!!!(3))2^(fact^4!!!!!!(3))
Which is big, but not THAT big.

ggç_3,3,3(3,3,3) is much much much larger (~f_w^3(3) as opposed to a petite tetration of something), so it far exceeds something petite like f(3,1,4). To be fair it also exceeds, say, g_64 or σM(2).

Define CAboundingmethuselah(a,b) as the longest lifespan of any a x a stabilizing pattern in any b-state, range-b or smaller (it doesn't have any restrictions beyond that) rule.
It's provable that
1: CAboundingmethuselah(a,b) is uncomputable since it is essentially a generalized version of the maximum shifts function.
2: CAboundingmethuselah(1,b+2) >= max_shifts(b) since TMs are a subset of CAs. CAboundingmethuselah(1,b+2) > max_shifts(b) if there is at least one time before stabilization where the TM doesn't change state.
2: CAboundingmethuselah(a,2) is strictly less than CAboundingmethuselah(a,3) for all a if the winner would not be a B0 rule since in the worst case you can always use that state 2 as a state 1 parent, meaning that you can add 1 to the lifespan. This can be generalized to show that CAboundingmethuselah(a,n+1) < CAboundingmethuselah(a,2n+1) if the winner would not have any birth without neighbors.

Are there any other upper/lower bounds for CAboundingmethuselah(a,b)? CAboundingmethuselah(3,2) >= the lifespan of the R-pentomino by definition, since the R-pentomino is a 3x3 object in a 2-state rule (actually there are quite a few methuselahs lasting longer than that but whatever.)

CAboundingmethuselah(a,b) must be finite for all natural number inputs >0 for a and >1 for b.
There are finitely many patterns fitting in an n-by-n bounding box for finite n and there are finitely many n-state CAs for finite n-- thus there are finitely many n-by-n objects in m-state rules for finite n and m, thus there are finitely many that stabilize, thus the maximum time to stabilization is defined and finite. (Unlike with population, where at latest it becomes undefine at n >= 35)

I vote that an ordinal Calcyman mentioned once (n such that Xi(x) ~= fgh_n(x)) should be called "a whack" since a = w_a^ck vaguely resembles that.

You are neglecting neighbourhood. If there are no restrictions on the CA rule other than that it has b-states then there are infinitely many of them.

Yeah, red cabbage is infinitely superior to green cabbage for some reason.
Also whoever named red cabbage clearly never heard the word purple.
