Re: Smaller Pi Calculator Challenge

I'm not sure what 'r' does. The program reaches HALT immediately after I press 'r' (it's already ended?) with ADD R0 R1 code. With the original code for Osqrtlogt, the program doesn't HALT but some mysterious living cells appears. What does it represent? It's a binary counter arranged into an infin...

Re: Irrational slope pseudo spaceships

A while back there was a post titled: "does there exist a 60 degree pseudo spaceship?". This was interesting, but it leads to another question. Can a pattern approximate an irrational number with a ratio? There exist algorithms which calculate square roots and transcendental numbers, but could some...

Re: (Engineered) diehards

How is the machine designed and how large is it? Hi, I am lumi from Discord. The way it will work is it uses a GPC to run a googological notation called the primitive sequence system (for which I have already made APGsembly code), and once it terminates, it activates a self-destruction mechanism.

lumi (on the Discord) is building a machine with a lifespan of f_ε0(n) in the fast-growing hierarchy, which is vastly greater than Graham's number. How is the machine designed and how large is it?

Re: Binary slow salvos

Meant to post this as a suggestion: hotDogPi suggested on Discord a couple of days ago that "just a shillelagh" might be a good example pattern to get the RCT building a sample of something. I've built this example pattern, and done so without any 'cheating' or emulation -- just an honest 17-glider...

Re: (Engineered) diehards

In the future I wanna make an improvement to this though (the primitive sequence system). This will be more efficient given the bounding box we should try to fit in.

Re: (Engineered) diehards

If it's that big, how in the CGoL universe would it be compacted? Someone would need an idea brighter than the Sun to do that. :idea: 1. I know that the main goal is to fit under a 100 x 100 bounding box, but someone mentioned the potential of larger ones, e.g. 20k x 20k, so I made something out of...

Re: (Engineered) diehards

What if we used a googological notation, implemented it into a GPC and attached a self-destruction mechanism that will trigger once the program terminates? I made this APGsembly code for Ackermann's worm, the strength of which is comparable to that of Knuth up arrows. Unlike recursive filters, you d...

Hey, that might even make Rob's p16 a little cheaper to build. It currently costs eleven gliders, so it's an improvement if this constellation can be built with six gliders or less: x = 38, y = 51, rule = LifeHistory A.A$.2A$.A21$24.A.A$25.2A$25.A2$21.A.A$22.2A13.A$22.A12.2A$ 36.2A8$17.2A$17.2A$23....

I just thought of a new world order where you have to rickroll someone to advance in the hierarchy. Your score is how many rickrolls you've done + the number of rickrolls that people you've rickrolled have done.
