I've only seen the new WRs on WCA live and read the whole Yiheng drama on Reddit.

Tommy Cherry got the 3BLD WR average (14.15) and Hill Pong got the 5BLD WR single (2:18.78) Excited to see the videos!

Posts from this community still don't show up on the mobile app I use :s
Fortunately I can still see them from desktop.

So uni started and I've been a lot more busy, but I'm still trying to practice my 3-Style with Anki. I've switched from having 1 card per commutator to 1 card for both a commutator and its inverse. This will speed up my learning but very likely slow down my recognition for when I encounter a letter pair that corresponds to an inverse. I'll try to practice that when I've finished learning all the algs first.

The tool I was creating is a little simpler now. It only fetches a few sheets (an old one by Jack Cai and Elliott Kobelansky's). I use Jack Cai's algs mainly as that's the one I found first, but since it has many typos, I replace (via code) the ones I dislike with Elliott's. Then I generate the Anki cards (with both comm and inverse). Right now I'm learning 378 corner commutators via 189 cards.

What I've really grown to like is a mix of Elliott Kobelansky's notation and standard notation.

  • Standard notation: [D' U': [R D' R', U2]]
    • In English:
      1. Set up with D' U'
      2. Do the insertion R D' R'
      3. Do the interchange U2
      4. Undo the insertion with R D R'
      5. Undo the interchange with U2
      6. Undo the setup with U D
  • Elliott's notation: D': U' / R D' R'
    • In English:
      1. Set up with D'
      2. Do the pseudo-interchange U'
      3. Do the insertion R D' R'
      4. Do the pseudo-interchange twice U2
      5. Undo the insertion R D R'
      6. Do the pseudo-interchange again U'
      7. Undo the setup with D'
  • The mix I like: [D': [U' / R D' R']]
    • Exactly the same as Elliott's notation, but I find it easier to read.

What I do is I have both the standard notation and my modified Elliott notation on each card. That way I can try both and use the one that's easiest to learn (it's not always one or the other).
Parsing Elliott's notation and generating the mix is all automated, of course ;)

Oh, nice! A clean page that links to the collection instead of the unreadable .com

That's GPG, not SSH.

I think the comment you're replying to is not talking about late Reddit refugees but early FOSS enthusiast that were on Lemmy before. You're missing the point.

Who audits niche closed source apps like Sync?

Sounds fun. I still don’t completely understand commutators so I never learned 3-Style. What method did you use before and what were your times?

My PB is 3:07 with M2/OP. I'm going against the usual recommendation of "practice a lot of memo before learning 3-Style" but I've also read a few comments against doing that saying to just start with 3-Style immediately. Also knowing full 3-Style just sounds amazing.

Do you do BLD too? What are your times and method?

What's the issue with it?

[-] SeerLite 3 points 2 years ago

Is it not open source? I can't find the source code anywhere.

Check out Amaranthe - Digital World!

Edit: I was looking for new music the other day and came across this gem. Now I'm addicted to the whole album (but I'm not sure if it's all like what you're looking for, it's mostly heavy metal I think? I'm not good with genre names)

Enabling downvotes is specific to the instance's own communities, no?
