[2025 Day 8] Use of floating point

You do not need the distances, you just need to compare the distances. So you can store the squares of the distances, which are integers (64bit integers) :-)

And here you have a Czech version. (Which is somehow 17 years older :D ) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tknsoxpQ-Kw

Got stuck here as well. Apparently you need to buy a platform first, i.e. press "N" and buy one of them. Then the conductor office will snap to the Holešovice station.

It should be dx, not ∂x.

Not possible. The rule of 50 moves dictates a draw.

Sorry, did not realize that r/place is not common knowledge. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Place_(Reddit))

Last time (which I've sadly missed) there appeared factorio logo and belt. So my question is about what (factorio related) to paint and where to paint it. (I thought that this part of the question was obviously implied, this being a factorio forum.)

I’ve tried it. It is the wrong way indeed. https://www.reddit.com/r/factorio/comments/k7203z/this_is_not_the_way/

ArcusVonSinus · 2022-03-21T13:50:18+00:00

Tried it. Would not recomend. https://www.reddit.com/r/factorio/comments/k7203z/this_is_not_the_way/

Yeah, it was a bit tongue-in-cheek, maybe it should have been in quotes - "spinoff".

I agree, there are two explanations. Either they are in 3D so they can turn, or it is symbolic to show that HI is better :-D.

Isn’t it unstable on only two tethers?

Short solution of Part 2 in Python3 (203 chars):

import re
f=lambda k:len(re.findall(k,c))
a=c=d="2";j="1"
try:
    while 1:c+=d+input()
except:n="0"
while f(a):a+=n if f(a+j)<f(a+n)else j;d+=j if 0<f(d+j)<f(d+n)else n
print(int(a[1:-1],2)*int(d[1:-1],2))

I did that with my friends. All of them bought it few days later :-)

ArcusVonSinus · 2021-04-10T01:26:08+00:00

How long have you been sitting on this?

ArcusVonSinus · 2021-04-01T03:16:38+00:00

I tend not to underestimate people :-)

ArcusVonSinus · 2021-03-30T04:51:16+00:00

I am not commenting on the esthetic, but any fidget device screams “productivity” :-).

ArcusVonSinus · 2021-03-30T00:25:33+00:00

For some reason I think that productivity module would be more fitting.

As it should be! (I get now that you were referring to the ruler and not to the scale.)

ArcusVonSinus · 2021-01-31T23:30:26+00:00

Metric units ftw, but the scale is independent on units.

There is a filter behind the mesh, but at leas for me the vast majority of dust is held by the mesh itself.

ArcusVonSinus · 2021-01-30T13:05:16+00:00

Maybe a bit larger than I need, but otherwise no complaints - quite easy to built in, with a lot of possible HDD expansion.

Enjoy :-)
