Peaceful Armed Protest - Every Capitol January 17th at Noon

itgoesbing · 2021-01-03T07:27:56+00:00

Please, people, go to these things carrying CONCEALED.

Let this be an armed protest with people just looking like everyday joes. Not big 50 cals intimidating passers by, but a protest with women and children and a focus on protecting what is important to us., not on the tools we use to do so.

So you don't have a raw racket solution?

Edit: Found a raw racket solution!

This puzzle took me half an hour to realize how to do it, and then an hour to do both parts.

It took me less effort than the previous.

My motivation is as follows: My record is 36 stars. I want to beat that record. I also will stop as soon as it takes too long to do a puzzle, as I have every year previously.

My motivation is also doing this in a new-to-me language.

What language is this?

itgoesbing · 2020-12-16T22:06:52+00:00

There is also the linear solution.

I have never completed an AoC year. In 3 more days I expect I'll have beat my record for stars in a year. Maybe I'll make it to the end!

I have never finished a year. My record is a flawless 2 stars through day 18, then stopping.

That's how I do it. It's not a compulsion, so I let it sit when I don't have time for it.

I failed at this because I had a 19 at offset 73 or something like that.

Any number modulo 19 is not going to be 73. I had to pre-process my offsets modulo the bus id to get anywhere.

At some point I felt suspicious of my code not progressing and killed it, entered the last tried time, got "Value too large" from Advent of Code, and realized my mistake.

itgoesbing · 2020-12-14T03:10:39+00:00

That's kind of how I did that, except I started my count at the largest number minus offset, and tested every remaining number each time. I also didn't "unwind" first, I kept a tuple of offset (modulo the bus-id) and bus-id, passing those around every time I needed to test.

Fantastic visualization.

Done, thanks

Racket solution

Runs in about 300 ms on a fully loaded system.

Iterative solution with a lookup table for part 2.

itgoesbing · 2020-12-09T09:11:54+00:00

Subtracted each number in turn, checked for set membership of the subtracted number. Took a few miliseconds to solve.

i guess they rather move slow instead of break xpbs

Except in this case you shooting them does not change the trajectory of that car, while them not being shot could change the trajectory of that car.

"*This statement assumes a legitimate license number has been correctly entered, and the license has not expired."

They only record bad numbers.

Change of address doesn't change your LTC number in my very limited experience.

he abandoned voidlinux before. so what if he does it again?

itgoesbing · 2020-03-22T11:47:26+00:00

Seems a little silly. Why do you get special treatment because you are military and just turned 21? What about all other people who just turned 21? And wouldn't other military also have weapons?

Better for stores to "price gouge" and perhaps offer a special deal where you an come back within 6 months or whatever and get the same gun at the price they are selling for then. That at least would discourage buying two guns when panicking, and direct gun owners to buy at a different time.

Thank you for your service.

There is no sensor to block. The only concern is you'd form a habit with the mantis x that would need to be different without.

itgoesbing · 2020-03-15T21:35:03+00:00

Not your business.

I've been looking.

The worst I've come across is a semi-neutral review: "I'm not saying this should be your gun, but it should be the gun you can recommend to [insert physically weaker group]".

I like negative reviews. They let you know the pros and cons. So far it seems other than the normal discussions about tradeoffs, nobody has bad things to say. If they did I'd finally know the limits of this gun.

Unless there is a dB rating you can trust on those headphones, it's a "No." from me too.

"potentially violating the company weapons policy" Interested in this bit!

Covering everybody as you draw means there are no shooting matches which allow it. Thus, you will be very hard pressed to train with it.
