Just wondering what you guys did. I mostly worked as a sailing instructor. It was fun, nothing too exciting happened.

I played on my computer and stuff the whole time. Boring.

I went to Germany, Rock climbing, Camping, worked out, skated and a lot more. This is the most I ever did in a summer. Usually I would go to summer school and play on the computer all day.

Good for you, Echo. It's a good thing not being on the computer.

I went to Mallorca with my gf and her family, messed about on the computer, read a book about Islam, and I'm currently working driving vans for a supermarket chain (ASDA/Wal-Mart...)

I'm now waiting for some more books to arrive which I need to read by the end of September.

Relatively ancient and inactive

I can beat Germany. I was in Russia for 4 weeks, Sweden for two days, Finland for two days, Denmark for one day.

I didn't really have much of a vacation. I worked on a movie that was shot in June (16 hours a day of heavy lifting), and then I immediately hauled ass (usually 12 - 16 hours a day) until my cartoon was finished on July 27th. Then I had a couple of weeks to fart off before the semester started. And fart off, I did.

Ha. Ha. Ha. I don't get my summer vacation until December. I hope to do something worthwhile, instead of my usual routine of get up, eat, sit at the computer for ~16 hours, eat, sleep, rinse, repeat.

The first five weeks did I mostly play WoW (rather unstable weather, so the water never got any good temperature, means no point going out :P). Exceptions were when my mom got tired of me and I had to go with my dad on work (he's a lorry driver(<--would never have guessed that's what it's named if it wasn't for online dictionary)). That means two quick trips to Sweden, I think...
The last three weeks my parents also had vacation. We went to the Netherlands the seventh week. There we were on a huge truck festival (Truckstar. Was 3000 trucks there! :omfg: ).
The last week me and my dad went to Sweden (yeah, again, love the country <3).

There is no such thing as progress in the computer.

In rough chronological order: Stayed in close proximity to the computer, had a birthday, got a Wii, played it for 13 hours and 36 minutes straight the third day I had it (UGH!! I WAS SO CLOSE! I didn't even mean to get so close to 13:37 though. :)), went camping, read Rocket Boys for homework, did more homework, rejoiced when SeN came up, started highschool band with my older brother, became friends with his friends, did tons of backflips, got a kink in my neck from the first one, and here I am. I plan to go bowling tonight. Liberally sprinkle hanging out with friends and computer time and you have my summer. :P

Oh_Man -- Like it doesnt even bother to build a comsat unless it sees a lurker or dt, etc
[05:15 am]
Oh_Man -- Hope that makes sense. Also artosiscast just dropped a 1 hour vid he analayses a bunch of its games. The TLDR is the maphack is responsible for a large percentage of its wins because its just hard countering zerg rushes
[05:14 am]
Oh_Man -- It's EMULATING the behaviour of a control group select and move without having the actual functionality to do that
[05:13 am]
Oh_Man -- Vrael
Vrael shouted: yeah but it looks like pluto's eAPM is still 6000 based on issuing all those orders
k the APM is inflated because it issues 12 identical orders individually. Its not 12 unique orders
[03:02 am]
Vrael -- which does reduce down to the same tradeoff I mentioned below, aka trading APM for time, but still interesting
[03:01 am]
Vrael -- and while the reaver was reloading it used that time to aggregate enough marine/tank to fend it off
[03:01 am]
Vrael -- like its micro vs one of the in-base reaver drops was pretty insane, basically it made the reaver spend 1 scarab per unit instead of 1 scarab for many workers/units
[02:58 am]
Vrael -- all the stuff I've said below is based on the actual gameplay vs some strong human performers, seems like the bot just has unfair advantages, but its also doing some cool stuff
[02:57 am]
Vrael -- NimoStar
NimoStar shouted: If its any consolation, the human brain would still mop the floor with this bot if it wasn't limited by the mechanical interface
I mean human brains trained the bot too, its not completely infeasible for the bot to actually be strong in certain scenarios

Oh_Man -- No APM in chess. Computer just outthinks the human by seeing more moves ahead and more permutations
