HexInverseFire is a very interesting rule! I recommend using my rule tree generator, which produces hashlife-friendly rules that avoid the limitations of the LtL algorithm.

It feels odd that there are no previous occurrences of 'lifehack', 'lifehacks', 'life hack', 'life hacks' on this forum.

I believe the two terms have different meanings. In my understanding, in Life/CA-related discussions the word 'tick' usually refers to a step between two generations of a pattern (for example, going from a phase of an oscillator to the next phase), while the word 'generation' usually refers to just...

edit by Haycat2009 to Grin reagent changed "iteration" to "tick," with description "use less jargon" The standard term is "generation". "Tick" typically also means "generation" in this context, but "iteration" does not, so I think Haycat2009 was right to change it; however, I think "generation" is ...

Conjecture: All types of still-life can appear from a single row of cell.

[...] Actually, I believe that the first reaction is a transparent catalysis. In the Transparent object s page, it explains that keeper reactions count as transparent.

[...] The block transparently catalyzes twice . I'd argue there's only one transparent catalysis here. The first time it's basically a non-interacting spark created while deleting the block (if the block was present), rather than a transparent catalysis: x = 39, y = 28, rule = TripleLife .F$2.2F$3....

Hey, does anyone know the glider synthesis for a glider? I couldn't find any.

Easy for someone who knows the history of past interactions. And of course off-topic. See reply viewtopic.php?p=184586#p184586

[...] The only difference between the tags is that when you quote the posts, you see which tag they are using. Therefore, it's sort of a private decision about which tag to use. Therefore, there's no point in telling people to use pattern tags instead of code tags, for it changes nothing for the pe...
