Re: Any already known archives of a very common B356/S23 puffer?

Looking at Catagolue also reveals versions of this puffer that are just interacting with one another. I don't think any of the currently-searched symmetries would actually allow for a lone puffer to appear.

So while the puffer isn't widely known, it certainly has been found before. This is also a good reminder to keep working on a userspace guide-disclaimer thing that I have planned.
I could've chose a better username, but oh well.

I think I've learned the ropes of cellular automata. My current interest is range-two LTLs.

This puffer:

I don't think that it is so weird: it's an 18c/72 glide-symmetric puffer. It was first discovered by Harold McIntosh in March 1994.
