Interested in all things puzzly.

Guess I'll be working on Katamari Damacy for a while.

"Have you ever been in an institution? You?"
"Not me."
"When you're not performing your duties do they keep you in a little box? You?"
"Me."
"What's it like to hold the hand of someone you love? You?"
"Not me."

Managed to reverse engineer the Dark Souls water shader. They use a deferred target for a water heightmap and construct the displacement normal based on that. Fun stuff.

@MarioBrothBlog Wasn't expecting to ever see an image from my map viewer in the wild. Glad to see you're back and well!

With the upcoming release of Super Mario Bros. Wonder, the Mario series will have an abundance of games with acronyms consisting of the letters M, B, S, W and N. Below is a diagram of these games.

@SamuraiApology @morrowind_rtf oh hmm, seems like a debug/placeholder NPC?

[Peter Fedak @PeterZFedak]

@DimitrisPapail From "Remove this instruction as it is redundant. We have already moved the value of P (A) to S ... if A < C. So, P already holds the value of min(A, C)" it still seems like it's missing the point. P holds A no matter what, not min(A,C). It will never hold C - it doesn't need to.

[Peter Fedak @PeterZFedak]

@DimitrisPapail It's going to be tough to conclude anything based just on this example because of the "bad" reasons that also point to this instruction being unnecessary. Having it *not* conclude this for things like swapping variables might be more impressive.

[Peter Fedak @PeterZFedak]

@DimitrisPapail The whole point of the optimization actually means that GPT *cannot* figure it out from your prompt, because the program behavior changes without that instruction. The precondition that B<C is critical.

[Peter Fedak @PeterZFedak]

@DimitrisPapail Before "mov S P", R has its final value, and we need to put min(S,Q) in P and max(S,Q) in Q. We'd need two possible writes to P for this, and GPT wants to eliminate one. Note even if P magically had S's value (without using S), cmp/cmov/cmov *still* isn't enough to sort the two

@morrowind_rtf sorry for the outage, twitter finally forced me to switch to the v2 API

UPDATE TO STORY:

@Cynderspark @JucikaDaily I was surprised at the "-ben" at first. Is this pretty common for loanwords, attempting to match endings/vowel harmony phonetically, even if the sounds aren't part of Hungarian?
