@Andy_Makes Yeah, this is a classic problem. You can ensure the playability by either
1. Generate and test, aka rejection sampling.
2. Post-processing: dig tunnels, draw ladders with custom rules.
@Andy_Makes 3. Pre-processing: generate connected structure in advance and use it as constraint for cellular automata/ConvChain/WFC
@Andy_Makes 4. Use a special heuristic to maximize the probability of generating a solvable level
@Andy_Makes 5. Use a general constraint solver adamsmith.as/papers/wfc_is_…
6. Or simply pick a genre where global properties aren't essential

Have you ever needed to generate a random number in code? whether it's for rolling a dice, or shuffling a set, this tweet thread is here for you! There's no reason that it should be easy or obvious, very experienced programmers repeat common mistakes. I did, before I learned ...
O.k. let's start with the most common problem, and the most common mistakes: how do we pick a random number between 0 and N inclusive, let's say N = 5, so like a dice that starts at zero because we're nerds.
A common solution is to r = rand() % (N + 1). Easy, right? Wrong! This solution is biased. To see how, imagine that RAND_MAX is "15". 0 % 6 == 0, 6 % 6 == 0, and 12 % 6 == 0 , so there are three rand() values each that return 0. Same works for 1, 2, 3 ...

Brexit seems to have run completely into a wall. This will be a thread on how to leave the European Union.

It's written by someone who thinks the idea is ludicrous so before you attack me leavers, instead think how objective that makes me, and how honest I'll be on the issues.
There are a number of significant hurdles associated with leaving the EU so we'll move away from the politics and divide them into bite sized chunks that everyone can understand.

When we've done that we'll look at what we have at the end and decide how we approach it now.
There are some principles to establish. The thread won't indulge in revising history. When you're in a 40 year relationship, signing article 50 without a plan was clearly an act of extreme stupidity. But sign it we did. So we build from where we are now, not where we should be.

Post inspired by @jeannette_ng — shout out to her in the post and also to @ann_leckie and @DelilahSDawson.
As I note in the post, the opposite of KILL YOUR DARLINGS is KNOW WHAT HILLS TO DIE ON. Sometimes you don’t wanna slay your darlings — you wanna stand up for them, protect them with tooth and claw.
One of the things I failed to mention in the post is that the only way to really get clarity and context on this stuff — to “interrogate” them as @jeannette_ng says — is to just, well, write a whole dang bunch. The act of writing changes the writer you are.

There’s a horse named “My Boy Jack” at the Kentucky Derby today and my head is spinning with AU possibilities
Gabriel Reyes, owner of Talon Stables, named the horse himself with a smile on his face. He wished he could be there when Jack found out the name he’d dropped on his new colt, but the satisfaction of knowing it would infuriate Jack would have to be enough.
“He’s going to kill you,” Jesse drawls, spinning one of Gabe’s kitchen table chairs to sit in it backward. There are dark circles under his eyes, as he’d spent the night in the stables watching over the birth, but fatigue can’t stop the grin on his face. “Like. Literally.”

Afternoon twitterverse! Let’s talk about AI in Radiology, which is the main focus in my research.
Any talk of AI begs for a definition of AI, and there are as many definitions as there startups that are “AI-enabled”.
#AI #phdchat #deeplearning #cancer #btsm #postdocalypse #podcast #ECRchat
For our purposes we'll just call anything that performs one of the higher level behaviours associated with animals e.g. learning, planning, problem-solving, creating etc.
