As I mentioned on the Discord, displaying 8 in that circuit can be accomplished by sending no signal at all. This could be used to simplify a full thing with a bcd decoder. Anyway, 2 days ago Blinkerspawn came up with an AND gate that splits the AND out of the two signals, leaving them intact: x = 2...

A002260 , because it's incredibly simple to compute algorithmically. I tried to implement it for Dick, but I never actually got it to work. Here's an RLE of an older version of Dick that was supposed to compute the sequence (it actually just counts up): x = 457, y = 480, rule = LogicLand 3$11.J$11....

Here's an RS NOR latch. The set and reset wires are at the top and bottom, and the output wires should be obvious. You can move the two horizontal guns closer, but the extent to which you can do that depends on the circuitry around the latch (the outputs have to be able to go somewhere), so I have n...

8 bytes of RAM. #C 8 bytes of RAM, using loop-based memory. Data is inserted into the loop using an XOR gate, and as such you could perform a logical XOR on a word of memory simply by writing to it without first clearing it. x = 206, y = 386, rule = Wire2 91.B$89.A2CA$88.C2BAB$89.3AC61.BA$50.BCA36.C...

Here is a 3-bit dmux. #C 3-bit demultiplexer by blah, based on p12 technology, because p12 is big enough to allow simple crossovers and has a lot of divisors. x = 71, y = 368, rule = Wire2 $18.AC$17.BAB$16.A2CA$6.ABC8.2B$5.BC2AC2.CAB2C$6.CBA.B2CAB3C19.CA$6.ABA3C4.3C18.BAB$7.C2.2C4.3C18.A2CA$10.2C.AC...

Wire2 is Wireworld, except inactive wire only becomes active if exactly 2 neighbours are active (as part of this rulespace ). That is to say, wires can simulate Brian's Brain (/2/3), similarly to how Wireworld simulates /12/3. It has been investigated since 2018-04-28 by me, Blinkerspawn, danny, sak...

I finished version 0.3.1, which supports these rules, so maybe some people might be interested in playing with that? To use the program, copy this into an .html file and run it. Changelog: 0.3.1 2018-04-26 +A snake. + Generalised Wire Automata . "WireWorld" and "Bliptile" are interpreted as their eq...

something in random posts

The QFT computer can be compiled to GOL (hypothetically). Yes, but if I make a B3/S23 Wireworld metacell does that mean that the Wireworld Computer is a computer in the game of life? I think that there's an unavoidable level of subjectivity in the finer details and distinctions here, and in my subj...

Cool. My last birthday wasn't mentioned in this thread

I hope this isn't off topic, but would non-totalistic two state rules with computers in them be included? I ask because I may build a computer in Snowflakes , and I think you would like it, but the only non-ruletable rule here is Star Wars so I am wary on whether it would qualify I included Coban's...

This is intended to be a list of circuit rules, computers, and other things pertaining to digital logic in cellular automata so that people can see the prior work. It is not a list of turing complete systems; this is more about practical computation. The systems are marked as HIGH, MID, or LOW depen...

HPP has previously been demonstrated to allow for the construction of logic gates: viewtopic.php?f=11&t=2443&p=37140

Cool. This rule is very much different from what I'm used to; it's closer to this flash thing by Jack Eisenmann than the rules I've worked with, in terms of the concept of using gates for turing-completeness. Anyway, here's an SR latch thing: x = 5, y = 10, rule = Pulse2 Q.Q.Q$Q.Q.Q$Q.Q.Q$C3HC$QKQ.Q...

This is awesome. When I saw the title, I didn't expect this to actually be a multicore processor in a CA, but it is. When are you going to put out some documentation? Identifying the ROM is obviously pretty easy, and I'm assuming the weird tower thing that they're outputting primes to is a kind of w...

If you would like to work on a small machine (maybe 2000*2000 at most) that counts to an incredibly large but provably finite number, like Graham's Number or something, before reducing itself to 1 cell, I would then (presumably) be able to use this idea to create a 1-cell predecessor to that machine...

Yeah, I would say so.

I added this account as a foe, because that feature never gets used.

Happy birthday Clark Gable!!!!!!!!! The only birthday that really matters.

Please share! Sadly, it requires quite a bit of minimal configuration and tweaking , and it would take a while to explain, so I might as well spend that effort writing a program which is simpler to use rather than explaining how to use the hacked-together .c++ file that I wrote over the course of ~...
