a way to get an easy synthesis of loaf siamese loaf?

Code: Select all

x = 6, y = 6, rule = B3/S23

This can already be synthesized from a mere 4 gliders. Doing it from the barge and two domino sparks would take 9.

The wiki says 8 gliders...
P.S. Oddly enough, using a long barge creates a beehive at beehive.

The original synthesis was the 8-glider one devised by David Buckingham (who did most of the work on synthesizing small objects). I think most of the small object syntheses on this wiki came from my web site (currently down), which in turn came from his synthesis library. The last time I updated that was in 1998, and there have been many small improvements since that time. Dean Hickerson found a 5-glider synthesis, and more recently. B. Shemyakin found the 4-glider one.

I guess this means that, at least from your own perspective (and likely also for most other people who are on this site), Life is prehistoric!

That is totally new. Your "sneaking suspicion" may derive from the fact that the hook-with-tail/snake stabilisation is a rock, just like this well-known hat cap:

Hello to all

I not find this p5 oscillator and this still life in lists of known objects of life. I wondering if it is something new , not discovered yet.

thanks for you feedback!

I not find this p5 oscillator and this still life in lists of known objects of life
the oscillator is a harbor but the still life still unknow for me. :(

P.S. : I'm still in doubt about these two still lifes, if they are not discovered yet. if someone can tell me I am very grateful.

Is this methuselah known? I found it in a 10-cell form, but the following generation is only 9 cells, and it's hard to believe anything with a single-digit number of cells isn't known by now. It's definitely not an acorn derivative (found a couple of those earlier) and its lifespan isn't in the "longest-lived methuselahs" section of the wiki.

Code: Select all

#C "Jaydot" stabilizes at generation 6930 and fits in a 5x5 bounding box.
#C Following generation is 9 cells and fits in a 3x6 box.
x = 5, y = 5, rule = B3/S23

All still-lifes up to 24 bits have been counted, but there has not, as yet, been any attempt to systematically list or count larger ones. Still, since there are over 4 million 24-bit ones, and each bit added increases the number by approximately 2.45, there should be around 6 trillion 40-bit ones and 11 quintillion 56-bit ones, so you can understand why nobofy takes great note of them unless they have some particularly notable features (such as occurring spontaneously from soups, or being useful as eaters, etc.). The 40-bit one with the four large loaves looks like it should be fairly easy to synthesize (there are a few other large ones with similar structures). I'm not sure abot the 56-bit one with the 8 bookends - I'll have to look into it when I have some time.

Back in the '80s (I think), Thompson ran all objects up to 10 bits, so he must have come across this at some point. Still, I don't recall ever seeing it, so it should probably get added to the wiki. I'll add it to my own lists once I figure out how to synthesize it from gliders (which looks like it shouldn't be too difficult).

sorry... i had no idea it was so hard and that there were so many still lifes.
if you can tell me something about the 56 bit pattern when you have some time I thank you very much. :-)

Blinker + 3 gliders makes bakery + blinker. Give just the right period/speed rake, and this makes a strange puffer, where the debris goes off in another direction and period. Is there a name for things like this? Specifically. how it diverges in direction.

I don't think there's a name per se, but this concept has been discussed a couple of times.

Hmm, I see. Per the second link, part of the flying wing can be isolated as another example easily:

Code: Select all

x = 27, y = 28, rule = B3/S23

Maybe "smoker" or "nimby puffer". Heh. I wonder if anyone collects these.

Conversely, you can build a flying-wing-type growing spaceship out of your original example:

x = 445, y = 138, rule = B3/S23

I was thinking maybe "tethered spaceship", by analogy to "tethered rake", where support for a moving active reaction turns a gun or multi-glider shotgun into a sort-of-rake. In this case an expanding stable object turns a simple rake into a sort-of-growing sort-of-spaceship.

Nice.

Hmm. How about this for a horrible pun: Call the ones in front "Unicorns", the structure the "Unicorn Horn", and the one at back that eats them "Red Bulls". This is stretching the analogy, but for a good reason. Red Bull gives you wings.
