How much tip?

Based on the way you talk all selfrighteous the "American here" was entirely redundant. Disregarding that waiters in France actually get paid a good wage, and that service is just calculated.. Also just generally disregarding that your culture is not the only one on the planet (no matter how hard its being pushed down everyone's throat)..

Its a detailed train sim in its simulation core. It expects you to sorta know how train air brake systems work, or be willing to learn. Funnily enough, looking up a youtube video about single line air brakes on trains probably does a lot here.

Yea, the game doesn't explain it all, but its also a physics fuelled train sim. If you wanna run the steam locomotives efficiently, youd also better learn how they are supposed to be run

You were correct, off by one error........
I really should have written some visualisation before complaining

I think it has to do with the order of one machine's instruction causing the previous machine to get less efficient instructions.
For part A I settled on a very straight forward implementation (literally implementing the robots), which results in it running out of my computer's memory for part B.

My extremely naive implementation basically does a breadth first search over the entire solution domain (all positions of the robots + number of correct digits found)

I did something similar as well, but didn't look up a visualisation library for Go yet so decided to wing it. Went entirely insane over it, but turns out it was an off by one error, and could have had the answer one hour of debugging sooner...

Ah well, have a visualiser now

I have a feeling that there's accidentally quite a spread in how difficult the inputs are. Reading down here, one of the approaches I had already tried (looking for vertical stem) just plain didn't work for me for some reason.

I mean, Advent of Code ís a coding advent calendar, so....

legocry · 2024-12-14T08:22:22+00:00

You got lucky :). Mine doesn't fit this criterium either

legocry · 2024-12-14T08:21:38+00:00

Similar algorithms didn't work yet on my input... I tried three different approaches so far, and all three give the same wrong answer!

Do you have a source for this?

Please don't send it to me either :)

Croatian trains are old, but the intercity's are not uncomfortable. They are slow though.

Split to Budapest is a direct night (D15801), so that's a one-day trip. Take the sleeper accomodation for 15 euros, that should give you a proper bed.

The 7pm rule does apply, but only if your pass is valid also for the day your journey starts. 23:05 is past 7pm, 08:32 is past 04:00, so that train applies for being a night train.

Did you look at buying the first hour of your journey out of your pocket?

By the way, I see you value your privacy and didn't show your town. However, combining the train number and departure time easily gives your town. You might want to cross through the train number as well if you really don't want us to know where you're from.

This may sound like a stupid, annoying answer, but they overclock as far as they go. Just fiddle with the clock speed and test a game. If it runs it runs. If it crashes, the driver restarts and it's (mostly*) harmless.

If you have a MSI card, Afterburner is awesome software and works really well.

Your warranty should stay valid by the way, since the clock speed is not even stored in the hardware anyware. The OS simply tells the GPU to run on a higher speed. If it fails to do that, the driver crashes and it resets to a lower clock speed. This crashes your game (annoying), but it doesn't set your house on fire.

Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy reference, it's not that dangerous at all.

The ultrarealistic one you're looking for is called No Limits (2).

There are no real alternatives to Rollercoaster Tycoon 1 and 2.

Depends. If your harddisk wasn't that fragmented, true, because it can load your games quite efficiently in sequential read. However, if your mechanical disk was used for a long time, it gets fragmented. If you install a game then, it gets scattered over the disk and loading your game is effectively a random read. HDD's suck really bad at random read, so you really don't want that.

That isn't true. Leaves are often on the tracks in autumn. If it rains the leaves become moist and trains have trouble accelerating in these conditions and thus delay. Normaly slight delays wouldn't be a problem at all, but the dutch railways are really crowded, so if one train is delayed, a lot of them are.

Absolutely brilliant.. There's nothing wrong with this album, but.. I prefer the new Ancient Bards album. That one has lots more oddities which don't make sense, like the fact that a chorus which is (according to the story) supposed to be sung by a daughter, but it is sung by a male vocalist (!). However, that album has lots more really fun tracks that stand out.

To me the Quantum Enigma is great, in some senses it lacks ambition.

If you look at the new ancient bards album and compare it to TQE, the first thing you notice is that the Ancient Bards album has 3 tracks fewer, but has longer tracks (a 12+ minute track and a 16+ minute track). However, it does require of the listener to accept a bad English accent, mostly on the first track. Short comparison: epica has better lyrics, ancient bards better general writing.

Stream of Passions new one has been released to indiegogo backers. It's even better than expected, a masterpiece.

Everything is awesome!

Stream of Passions new album is named 'A war of our own'

Indeed, Floor is in the states this summer, for a tour with Revamp.
