Backtracking Algorithms in MCPL
Using Bit Patterns and Recursion
the point is this is actually literally the message encryption problem
The solutions to the 8-queens problem are the valid board states at level 8. Ignoring symmetries, all these solutions are be distinct.
yeah, any transformation across ordered bit strings that maintains the bit length is a valid way to encrypt or decrypt a message. the state space can be finite and the problem still undecidable.
@pndc I thought it was quite firmly established that one offers at least a tea or coffee, if able to do so?!
Perché la gente urla, PERCHÉ???
@Yaku Non so perché la gente urla "perché".
Due to ongoing disappointment with how infosec.exchange moderates racism (or doesn't, as the case may be), and a conversation with one of their moderators which very much left us disillusioned as to their capacity for taking racism seriously, we will be blocking that instance from mastodon.art in two weeks.
@Curator We've had them on "limit" for at least a couple of years now, for hosting CISA accounts (I'm not sure which of the several meanings was intended, but I gathered they're basically cops or supporting cops in some way.) I guess when there's one red flag, others often turn up.
And the next time you see someone – anyone, but *especially* “influencers,” prominent people in your life or your field of awareness, people with big follower numbers – posting about some new crisis, whether “natural” or purely and malevolently anthropogenic, ask these two questions:
What are you doing about it?
What can *I* do about it?
Encore un indice que nous sommes dans la pire des timelines. Après Le Pen qui survécut à Guy Bedos, voila que BHL survit à Noël Godin.
Il y a pas de justice céleste...
@David non, pas Noël Godin, c'est trop triste !! D'autant que Bill Gates, Sarkozy, Patrick Bruel et Poivre d'Arvor, autres entartés, lui survivent aussi 😥

It's true, we *thought* we fixed account migration in Pixelfed earlier this year, but a few pesky lines of code were to blame for breaking this migration feature.
So we disabled it until we could get it right, and after FediCon, @dansup (me) made it a priority to fix along with several other important bug and security fixes!
We are in feature freeze mode, and focused on further bug/federation/performance fixes, to make Pixelfed easier to install, more stable and more fun!
@pixelfed stop making excuses

@halcy she just looks like a touhou
@sakurina I'd probably like Reimu Hakurei better if she could alleviate my cold symptoms, too
What I hope you will have noticed is a feeling like the one those who participated in Common Ground, Occupy Sandy, COVID- and Metro Surge-era mutual aid efforts all experienced: *direct action to support communities in crisis restores precisely the sense of purpose, power and possibility everyday late capitalist life leaches away from us*.
When we organize ourselves to take care of one another, especially, the powerlessness and anxiety and sense of helplessness we’re so used to drop away, and are replaced with a feeling of our own rising capacity. We don’t have to sit there, suffused in numbness and gnawing dread, as people suffer. We can intervene – directly, materially, with the whole of what scott crow calls our “emergency hearts” – and the life changed most by that intervention may very well be our own.
What we know now, consistently and empirically, is that self-organized, autonomous mutual aid is the remedy for everything that’s been done to us. Let’s keep doing it.
Ah. You bring up a fastinating point. I will do the research and get back to you. (Jacks off for 2 hours) Ok. I have done the research,
@jpm Normally this is assumed to be common knowledge.
@hennichodernich sure, but still nice for it to be explicitly called out in a datasheet as a reminder that oh yeah you actually have to check that too while you're doing all the calculations to find the inductor and capacitor part numbers for your design.
Every major mall, train station, and airport should have a book vending machine like this:
