Thanks for the criticism. The first chorus is deliberately airy and muted to draw a contrast with the second half, but maybe I overdid it (I tend to). |

The website (tom7.org/portmantout/) has a link to the source. Will probably need some minor modifications to get it to build in something other than mingw-x64 on windows.
Aside from the heuristics (choose long suffixes first) and opportunistic improvements (remove words that are incidentally covered), there isn't really any attempt to optimize. It's a good problem (though I'm pretty sure NP-hard). For the video, I ran it in parallel a few hundred thousand times (some parts are arbitrary so I choose randomly) and just saved the smallest one. |

Nice video! Do you have a source release for that program, or do I have to make it myself? *runs* How does one optimize the output anyways? Obviously, one of the least efficient outputs would be to go in dictionary order and use that chart to link all words by just taking the last letter and going to the start letter of the next word in the dictionary. |

I like it!
Some comments:
Around 1:13, the rhythm guitar doesn't resonate enough for my liking. It feels there is not enough background resonance in this section. A good way to make this better would to be add a bass part to it. The lyrics remind me of something out of a Jonathan Coulton track. Wacky and fun, just the way I like it. I love the coda (starts 4:12), and I think that could use some expansion. Heck, I'd listen to a whole track based on that coda. |

Good ideas, though I guess I should also add that it needs to fit in carry-on luggage and be TSA approved! Then again, how could the Statue of Liberty not be TSA-approved? |

Run dressed as the Statue of Liberty. Or the Eiffel Tower? |

And... Mentioning the level editor, I have found a bug.
I've tried creating a level and so I resized it and made it a 5x5. It has a tick mark meaning it's been solved, but the level is unsolvable. I've tried uploading it, but whenever I hit "upload" the box just vanishes and does not confirm it. I'm guessing it's the bookmark, but the bookmark doesn't even touch the Exit Door. |

Fixed that, now I get a numworking > 0 error.
I know this means I am not running with "helpers". What are those, and how do I run them? |
| |
I apologize for the bother. I am new to this, and I reall don't know where the config.txt file is. I searched it, and I got a bunch of .cc files, as well as one .h file. I'm a noob at this, so help would be appreciates, thanks! |
| |
Thanks, many people have been asking for something like this so I'll send them to your video :) |
| |
I think this will help ppl

Please feel free to use this vid tom ;) |

This means it can't connect to the helpers. Run the helpers first and then run the master with the ports that you used for the helpers. Try just running one helper and then one master, to make sure you have the right idea. |

Yes, when I see an uptick in weird messages I know to check what's going on! I like his videos and it was an honor to be included :) |

Hi Tom, Likely you know you are featured in a video about human extinction, by Michael Stevens, on his YouTube channel, Vsauce. Reference begins 6 minutes in.

hey OP, so I started learnfun and it created all of the .motifs. Then I start running playfun.exe with all of its --helper and --master but once I start up playfun.exe it gives "Check Failed numworking > 0" and crashes cmd. Help? |

Ai, yai, YAI! Nice table, but stop at one while you still can. Turn back, my young friend! You've been bitten, nibbled, we might say, by the wood-maker bug. Careful! It's a bit like RH blood factors. What you do after initial exposure is critical to your future sanity, financial viability and social and emotional balance.
If I could tell my younger self something: I'd recommend selling or giving away all your wood working tools and eschewing any maker space or shop that will let you work wood there. Find and get into a 12-step woodworking addiction recovery program and stick with it! Don't risk another exposure. It's a trap.
There is something in wood now-a-days, something the military industrial complex and the Rockerfellow-Rothschilds-Banking-World-Elite Banking GMO families have had jet-chem-trail-sprayed on all forests that produce wood for building and making and working. Something sinister, something irresistible, something addictive. It will twist you. It will grab you and never let go. Beware!
I did not turn back when I could have and now my basement and garage and closets are full of table saws and planes and routers and jigsaws and Japanese handsaws and sanders and chisels and mitre boxes and clamps and drills and oil and stain and too too much beautiful raw pure bare wood stock. And my home and the homes of all my family and friends are adorned, nay, infested! with all the things I cannot stop making and then making better. Oh, my life! And, yet, I do so love the throes and thralls and fetters and lash this craft wields to entice, to compel me to the bench!
Happy making! |

This is a good post. I like this post a lot. |

Hmm, I have an idea along those lines too. I wonder if they are related. :) I look forward to seeing what you come up with!
The three different graphs are just comparing the current frame to the previous frame, then 10 frames ago, then 100 frames ago. Not sure how useful it really is. You can see how these are computed in the source to scopefun; the SaveAV function is what to look at and I hope it's not that complicated. |
