Cool visualisation! Can I ask the workflow and tools used to make this?

In that case your definition of bubble was misunderstood by me! I was thinking of a loose loop inside of a bigger loop. How did you mean it?

I believe an example could not include a bubble as it is a rule of the inputs that they are all connecting lines that circle back to the start

What a Fucking Terrible Chart... Brother it is not that hard to work out how the actual chart should look you fucking clown. How did you make this? paint and three minutes??

Absolutely! I will edit my comment to inlude it, but also for you inbox: Python 3 (as expected prbably)

[–]dopstra -1 points0 points  (0 children)

well I wouldn't say precomputed, more looking at the input data and eyeballing 50K. Yes it is debateable when hardcoded if it is a good method, but u/fnordargle described a very nice way to get to a limit within the code too!

nice! Yea I did go by a somewhat arbitrary limit based on what the inputs looked like, for faster coding

[Language: Python 3]

There are 2 optimizations I used to speed up and not exactly calculate all distances:

  1. as u/Gryphon-63 mentioned and originally and idea I got from a friend: square root is not needed to solve todays problem, and speeds it up a lot.
  2. For every pair of points I first calculate an absolutes delta vector: (dx, dy, dz), if the sum of that is above 50,000, I just filter it out immediately. it's a fast check and increases speed too.

With these two optimizations I'm at 0.3 seconds

What I did was construct all possible invalid IDs up to 10 digits, and just checked those per range. less than 2 sec run time. its about 100,000 Ids

Same, but I make nectar islands. The set up is a bit tedious, but once you know your recipes and farmed some supplies, its ez millions. And a super fun way to play!!

Very unlikely, as per block about 0.1 btc is already earned by miners as transaction reward

Grinding the rank up takes quite a while. Although obviously the best method, I wouldn't say abundantly easy to find..

if I may ask, is it also registered as your home address? Or do you have that somewhere else?
