[16:27] Join: willvarfa joined #corewars [16:27] Hello All! [16:29] hey wil [16:29] whats going on? [16:29] oh, bit of hobby coding is all :-D [16:29] yourself? [16:32] whatcha hacking? [16:32] Species Blossom [16:33] yeah? [16:33] how's that going? [16:34] well, trouble remembering all the loose ends :-) [16:34] I wish there were collaborators :-/ [16:35] Hi Bvowk, Will [16:37] howdy [16:37] collaborators eh? [16:39] well I just don't have the steam to get it all done any time soon [16:40] I started it a couple of years ago... [16:40] yeah, but you write windowsy code :) [16:40] oh, haven't run it on windows yet [16:40] in C++ [16:40] I'd have to port the io to gnuplot [16:40] well it is very much c with scope, rather than full c++ [16:47] I'm writing my current one in lisp [16:47] I've been spending far too much time with PK, and he's lispified me.. [16:47] :-) [16:47] I'd have guessed you'd go forth [16:48] naw.. [16:48] forth is kinda low levely for me.. [16:48] he who must not be mentioned really likes it tho [16:48] yes, that I'd picked up upon :-) [16:49] lisp tends to be quicker, and I can get alot done in not much code.. [16:50] you hack much more on your um? [16:51] well I got it to run, and optimised it a bit [16:51] how can you tell when it is fast? [17:05] hmm, collaborators [17:05] I can understand that someone young and full of enthusiasm for evolving probably doesn't want to pick up Species Blossom [17:05] or anyone else's creation [17:05] they'd want to write their own from scratch! [17:08] its true [17:19] oh well [17:19] most of the fun is writing it.. [17:19] admit it. [17:20] maybe [17:20] how would you know :P [17:20] <- is stressed having to watch optimax churn out results [17:21] well, miz would know that I've never had the welm of winning :-) [17:21] yeah, writing an evolver is more fun than writing a warrior, me thinks [17:28] whee, it rains! [17:30] well rain clouds went over here - heading your way - about six hours ago [17:30] I wish it would rain here.. [17:30] the river is too low.. its affecting my chilled water feeds. [17:31] chilled water feeds? [17:32] * willvarfa imagines the big sun being cooled by an aquarium pump [17:35] heh.. [17:35] no, this building is chilled by pumping water out to some cooling stations in the middle of the river.. and then pumping the chilled water back [17:38] got to go! [17:38] * willvarfa waves [17:38] MSG: Remote host closed the connection [17:39] * John waves, too late [18:01] hmm [18:02] when i mention two things, and then prefer to them, i use words ? and latter, what is the word i that am looking for? [18:03] former [18:03] former and latter [18:03] thanks [18:21] Wow, i am actually writing an redcode-article [18:22] It a long due one, about simple stone-improving, its probably atleast 2 years, maybe 3 when i though about it [18:23] John: Stones defeat their opponents with speed, size, and what if with something else? [18:24] like paper/stone or stone/imp? [18:24] currently just plain stone [18:24] not even bomber [18:28] If you cant say any by now, i guess there arent any else [18:29] Durability [18:30] Some stones can continue to function when certain locations are bombed [18:31] Scanners dies, papers become hoppers [18:49] whee, +.26 points [18:50] * John waves [18:50] MSG: Quit: mov.i #1,1 [19:14] hrm. [19:14] hrm, [19:16] whats up miz? [19:16] Im on a roll, i've written nice bunch of (very heavy) text [19:19] nice. [19:22] Anybody wants to be a proofreader once it is done? Multimode? [19:22] I have too much internal error correction to be a good proof reader. [19:22] I see good text where none exists, because of too many years of IRC [20:42] 4+ pages [20:56] Join: pkhuong joined #corewars [20:57] . [20:57] hi pvk [20:59] hi [21:03] MSG:
