Thanks! I'll run some hauls on flashlife tomorrow, it's nearly 9 PM here.

Currently searching b2c3aei4ajnr5acns2-ci3-ck4in5jkq6c7c and I might need some help. Some very neat patterns coming up. Search speed around 800 soups/second (soup Hertz).

That's a great one! I never thought about it that way before, but you're right, we do measure search speed in soup Hertz.

Let's coin a new SI unit: "spHz", perhaps.

Since "soups" isn't a unit but rather a semantic annotation, wouldn't search speed just be measured in hertz, though?

Posted: **February 19th, 2019, 4:03 am**

By writing soup searching speed in Hz (per core), we can compare it to something else written in Hz: processor speed. Specifically, we could define the dimensionless (!) constant [processor speed / soup searching speed] as something proportional to/indicating the difficulty of apgsearching a rule (higher constant <=> more difficult).

The problem is, it probably won't be consistent between processors, also depending on things like the architecture used...

Well one soup is 256 bits, and Boltzmann's equation defines a kelvin to be 9.57×10^-24 joules per bit. A joule is 1 kg m^2 s^-2. So in SI units Rhombic's search speed is 1.96×10^-18 kg K m^2 s^-3.

B2e3-ae/S1c2-a3. According to AlephAlpha's searching, the search speed is 1Hz, will take a long time.

It's actually much, much quicker. (almost same speed as B3S23/C1 on my machine with profiling!)

Anyways, here's a spaceship that was marked as PATHOLOGICAL:

According to that, and assuming it is some kind of unit per second (as it measures speed or frequency), the correct terminology for a given haul is "entransy"- a physical property that measures heat transfer ability, with its variation wrt time being equivalent to soups per second. Alternatively, it can also represent the integration of kinematic heat flux along an associated force, whatever that would physically mean.

Yikes, on hacked apgsearch FakePiShipLife runs at 1soup*hertz = 256bits*hertz. I'm not going to go any farther because it kind of loses the practicality of the units after that. It's time I get apgluxe (Can someone give me some code to execute in terminal to do that?).

EDIT: 512bithertz

Can someone else search this rule?

Wow, apgluxe is fast! At least 7x as fast as python stuff. Would anyone like to help contribute to searching fakepishiplife? (Just for the record, my name is [REDACTED], so you can recognize my contributions.)

Macbi wrote:So in SI units Rhombic's search speed is 1.96×10^-18 kg K m^2 s^-3.

Hang on, shouldn't it be K kg^-1 m^-2 s^-1, seeing as K = J bit^-1 and not K= bit J^-1?
If so, it would be equivalent to the differential of temperature gradient wrt moment of inertia.

Anyway, back on track, I think exploring B2c3aei4ajnr5acn/S2-ci3-ck4in5jkq6c7c in different symmetries could be useful; C1, however, should still be searched. I think D8_1 (which has already started to be explored) and D8_4 are interesting. D2 and D4 groups might give some guns too.

Posted: **February 25th, 2019, 2:14 pm**

I'm doing C1 and D8_4

I was also waiting to make the leaderboard! By the way, would you mind submitting larger hauls? I can go up to 20-30 million soups and it works alright, it's because otherwise each haul takes loads of space for the same number of objects. So would you be able to do say 6 millionat a time at least?

Posted: **February 28th, 2019, 8:55 pm**

I submit 1 mil soups/haul and my Google Compute Engine VM submits 628318 (first 6 digits of tau) soups/haul. GCE VM is single-core so it's rather slow even with profiling but I can increase that to 2 mil since it's always on. I'm just afraid of it running out of memory; I took the least amount of memory possible. (I'm using the $300 free credits.)

On my home computer I'll submit about 3 mil soups/haul then and gauge it from there.

search

Code: Select all

It's pretty cool. Also very fast. Search ~higher numbers of soups, it runs about as quickly as searching life.

How many times can we find

Code: Select all

x = 7, y = 7, rule = B2ikn3aijn/S23-ckqy

I vote we call the rule creperie, because of the fake griddle things being so common.

Search with at least a million soups/haul.

I kinda want this rule to make the leaderboard, too-- I want 16P5H1V1 to appear as well.

I did in fact upload hauls to rule XVI or whatever and also as an anonymous contributor uploaded hauls to many rules.
