The tripole is the barberpole of length 3.
Commonness
The tripole is about the fourteenth most common naturally-occurring oscillator in Achim Flammenkamp's census, being less common than quadpole on ship but more common than mazing.[1]
Glider synthesis
Martin Grant improved the previous 7-glider synthesis to 6 gliders on June 23, 2017.[2]
gollark: Did you know? You are now breathing manually. That's what a thing like this would normally say, except that was actually just a distraction constructed to give some time for the cognitohazards to enter your brain. Enjoy!
gollark: The "fun" thing about is that OIR is actually served from an entirely separate part of osmarks.net and just happens to pull track info from the RSAPI because that was the best place I could find to fit it.
gollark: * radii, and maybe
gollark: Anyway, I am considering overhauling the Random Stuff API Current Song Protocol™ for OIR™'s frontend to run over websocket, allowing:- somewhat better performance maybe possibly- live chat about how much you hate a song
gollark: It used to be called the amplitude processing index observation horizontal technology turnover platform.
