🇺🇦 haxadecimal<p>A few months ago I tried to write a Binate Covering Problem (BCP) solver, and haven't yet gotten it working.<br>But today I realized that writing one is a waste of time. BCP can be solved by a Max-SAT solver, and a huge amount of effort has been invested by very smart people to make those work efficiently. My feeble attempt at a BCP solver couldn't possibly do better.<br>Here's Python code to solve BCP using Z3's Python bindings:<br><a href="https://github.com/brouhaha/bcp-z3-python" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">github.com/brouhaha/bcp-z3-pyt</span><span class="invisible">hon</span></a><br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BCP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BCP</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BinateCoveringProblem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BinateCoveringProblem</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/SAT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SAT</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Z3" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Z3</span></a></p>

EpiscoGrrl<p>How were you taught to <a href="https://episcodon.net/tags/pray" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>pray</span></a> ?</p><p>I don’t recall ever being taught HOW to pray. As a kid, I recall being taught <a href="https://episcodon.net/tags/prayers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>prayers</span></a> (God is great, Now I lay me down to sleep, Hail Mary &amp; the Lord’s Prayer, among others). By the time I became a teenager I was memorizing swathes of the <a href="https://episcodon.net/tags/BCP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BCP</span></a> including prayers. But being taught how to pray or even the parts of a prayer? Not so much.</p><p>I was taught to mediate (it was the 70’s &amp; mom was into TM, so I have a mantra I basically repeated while walking around in a dim room since I wasn’t old enough to actually sit still). I found it similar to the contemplative prayer as taught by a Benedictine monk during a prayer workshop a few years ago. That’s as close as I’ve gotten, which probably explains why I feel my <a href="https://episcodon.net/tags/prayerlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>prayerlife</span></a> is lacking. My prayers come from memories or books because I lack the confidence to “just pray” outside of dire circumstances.

EpiscoGrrl<p>My time alone is important to me. Solitude doesn’t scare me as I often feel I need more of it than most people. I’m also a very early bird, so today’s verse (Mark 1:35-38) resonates with me. I just never thought of sitting around (or, more commonly walking) &amp; thinking as <a href="https://episcodon.net/tags/prayer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>prayer</span></a> In fact, I’ve always felt as though my prayer life, well, sucks. I don’t really pray at all in the sense of poetic elocution. I sometimes manage a quick Thank You, God or a list of names of people I hope God will touch with grace but honestly, most of the time, I’m just thinking random stuff or making up stories/scenarios in my head. To me, that’s not prayer. But…what if it is? <a href="https://episcodon.net/tags/TheDisciplesWay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TheDisciplesWay</span></a> raises the questions of what did Jesus do in his solitary place? &amp; how did he pray? I’ve never really thought about it. Part of me wants to think his prayers were more like what I see in the <a href="https://episcodon.net/tags/BCP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BCP</span></a> or just conversations with God where God talked back. What if they weren’t? What if they were more like mine? (Edit: SP)</p>
