kaz-png: finally, Caturday
jacek: so quiet in this Caturday
kovi: hello. oh, you resubmitted from 2nd?
jacek: new model
kovi: im thinking of adding duplication check
jacek: transpositions?
kovi: oh, so that is how it is called
jacek: you didnt know? :o
kovi: i am new to these
kovi: i was thinking graph manipulation
jacek: https://www.chessprogramming.org/Transposition_Table
jacek: though i never got it working for mcts. i use TT only for minimax-like
jacek: i can consistenly win against robo, but still only single games against reCurse
kovi: yeah, that is godly
kovi: gratz for 2nd though
kovi: duplication is easier with minimax cause you eval at the same turn
kovi: uttt is mostly nonduplicate cause of forced moves
jacek: in mcts there is also issue how to backpropagate that and UCT selection
kovi: even though it is "flow" like
kovi: non-reversible
kovi: bt is also nonreversible...and simple (single piece type)
jacek: yeah, no cycles
kovi: probably lots of duplications. and no difference how to get there
_O-MEGA: can anyone pls help me with a dp problem, i can't find the solution ;-;
_O-MEGA: it's for sure an easy one but...
_O-MEGA: please?
jacek: whats the problem
_O-MEGA: so given an array with positive intgers, u are allowed to change any element to another element with a cost of their sum, u need to find the minimum cost such that the array is nondecreasing
_O-MEGA: like if u have: 4 2 3 1 the minimum cost is 9
_O-MEGA: u change the first element into 1 and the last element into 3
_O-MEGA: is the problem clear?
jacek: too geeky for me
jacek: have you searched geeksforgeeks.org?
_O-MEGA: yes
_O-MEGA: not a lot but didnt find anything
_O-MEGA: wdym?
_O-MEGA: Jacek got any idea?
jacek: nah
_O-MEGA: rip
_O-MEGA: anyone else?
jacek: try discord
_O-MEGA: ok
_O-MEGA: true
Rocky[K.G.F.]: hello
Teddy.py: hi*1/0
Wexouv: Hi * nan
Rocky[K.G.F.]: HI reCurse
jacek: :scream:
TBali: Freecell puzzle: "Community success rate: 0%" 3 approvers: you are caught red-handed...
jacek: maybe they solved during approval and forgot about it later
TBali: yeah, very likely
uri1love: https://www.codingame.com/clashofcode/clash/1580119d3e95cf8466560346362f2d94c8427f4 guys goin pls. it's shortest mode only
TBali: There is a channel for this, no?
jacek: oO
3ataja: TBali, where? on Discord?
jacek: on Celestia
AntiSquid: uri1love https://www.codingame.com/multiplayer/bot-programming/paper-soccer join fast! gogogo ! NOW!
MSmits: before I discovered paper soccer, my life was empty and hollow. Now I feel revived and energized. Try paper soccer today, free!
reCurse: How much did you get paid?
reCurse: For the right price I might join too
MSmits: I am not at liberty to disclose :P
reCurse: Shame
darkhorse64: Play fireworks and enlight your nights
kovi: i heard that euler pay double for tryangle
MSmits: ohh
jacek: even ceg survived paper soccer
jacek: and he doesnt even read statements
struct: after he did paper soccer he was never seen again
struct: keep that in mind
jacek: he pruned himself away
kovi: talking about disappears, what is with dbdr?
struct: He was here 1 week ago+-
jacek: AutomatonNN where is that other guy?
AutomatonNN: eulerscheZahl is there a way to do that in the referee to add a replay of the community puzzle
jacek: yeah, where he is oO
s464913: hi I have a little problem. I defeated the boss but I'm still in bronze. And I dont know what to do ;d
struct: Are you above the boss?
jacek: you need to be above the boss in leaderboard
jacek: if your submit is over, wait for next promotion window
jacek: and? you promoted?
s464913: but is says that: Those better than the Boss will be promoted to Silver League at 18 H 17
s464913: So I guess that I must wait
jacek: eeyup
s464913: but idk what time zone it is
jacek: just 5 more minutes
jacek: yes :scream:
s464913: zaczalem w to grac niedawno wiec nizebyt jeszcze ogarniam zasady XD
jacek: coders strike back?
kovi: jacek you "packed" the 6-10 group
Papaver: I am also trying Coders strike back. Sometimes it doesn't show any pods moving in the game window when I press Play, although the console returns normal outputs. It works again if I refresh, but it's kind of annoying ;) Do I overlook something?
kovi: can a browser restart solve it?
jacek: packed?
kovi: 2x37.51,3x37.49
jacek: compression eh
Wontonimo: please give me some feedback on my clash-of-code contribution "Code Breaker" https://www.codingame.com/contribute/view/615955355e81da150427fbc22030665ef811 it has received several downvotes and but no actual feedback.
Wontonimo: is it too difficult, too easy, poorly described ... ?? The basic concept break a ceaser cipher. Computationally simple, but it is clash-of-code
Uljahn: it's simple when you're familiar with cryptography
Westicles: There are already at least 6 other Caesar cipher clashes, that might be part of the problem
jacek: do the double rot13 puzzle
kovi: play of bandas is quite complex, i dont like it
jacek: oO
kovi: also no debug msg... what kind of playout count can i expect?
jacek: pure mcts? ask MSmits
kovi: you play jacekmax?
jacek: yes. NN of course
MSmits: not sure kovi, i use an endgame book for bandas
kovi: i c
jacek: he's like bible, alpha and omega
MSmits: my random rollouts cut short pretty early
MSmits: well just omega for bandas, no alpha
kovi: :)
kovi: no opening because it is random
MSmits: yeah
MSmits: btw, if you're looking to generate endgame book for bandas, max size is 12 (so 3x4 or 4x3, 6x2 etc)
MSmits: and you can only generate it offline, then put it in codesize
MSmits: bigger endgame books wont fit and it is quite expensive to generate them
jacek: how often 6x2 occurs eh
MSmits: dunno
MSmits: didnt matter to me anyhow
MSmits: for oware you would generate it in the first 1 second
MSmits: because you can get bigger books that way, than when putting it in codesize
MSmits: it's all about computing vs memory
MSmits: well code size instead of memory, in this case
MSmits: anyway, gtg, promised my wife to watch a quiz thing on tv , ttyl
jacek: https://oeis.org/A212693 - good idea for reverse clash
MSmits: so, you would look at the numbers, then write a program to calculate these numbers?
MSmits: in 15 mins
MSmits: I don't see a problem with that
DJSchaffner: is there something in java by default which is like a signum function in other languages? copysign only returns + and - but not exactly zero
DJSchaffner: or do you have to code it yourself everytime?
DJSchaffner: in python by default*
3ataja: bots shouldn't be allowed around this hour in CoC :)
[K]Gabor: is the platform dying just for me?
3ataja: it's dies every day around this hour
[K]Gabor: oh :( i see
[K]Gabor: its time to sleep than
ZQWhiting: Any idea when the site usually resolves its issues?
3ataja: i don't think it takes too long
3ataja: may be all right in half an hour
brand: hey how is everyone doing t
