You could track the time since you last animated; variable t = time since last animation constant x = duration of the smithing animation if t exceeds x -> if you still have supplies -> smith else -> bank else -> idle

been there done that... 28.5 times now

Pseudocode: if !got steel bars -> bank if animating -> idle else -> smith

Cool story but @Anne would never cheat on me.

Why would you swear such thing :x

Your first post was funnier

Because why not.

Don't use the list data structure for the sets. You should use PriorityQueue or another heap-type ds for the open set & something like a HashSet for the closed set.

Sigh. Everything in nature is lethal if enough force is applied or a large enough dose is administered, your point is just plain silly. However; cars, kitchen utilities, construction tools and body members are fundamentally different from guns because their main purpose is not to kill, they are not weapons designed to harm other humans. Also, directly from the FBI's site: Of the homicides for which the FBI received weapons data, most (67.8 percent) involved the use of firearms. Handguns comprised 72.5 percent of the firearms used in murder and nonnegligent manslaughter incidents in 2011. Law enforcement should always have access to the most powerful weapons to protect the citizens. Inb4 the "corrupt armed government turning against the unarmed civilians" argument: The USA government already has a billion-fold more powerful striking force (tanks, bombs, airplanes, boats, nuclear power) in comparison to all the private guns in the world, if they wanted to turn against the people they could easily already have done so (this is not a point politicians like to bring up ;)) Giving everyone a gun does not eliminate weakness or easy targets. Criminals would acclimatize quickly and would, for example, start using even more deadly and illegal weapons to keep the upper hand. Now, when criminals start terrorizing the streets with bazookas, should we then allow common citizens to also keep bazookas in their car for self-defense? How about grenades, bombs, tanks? Yes, it's inevitable. As I said before, you can't eradicate them, but you can make them much less accessible. In 2011 (USA), felony circumstance homicides (thieves, rapers, burglars, bank robbers, serial killers...) represented 'only' 23% of all homicides. 43% of all homicide victims were murdered during arguments (including romantic triangles) [extremely high percentage when compared to countries with stricter gun policies] and the remaining 38% of murders's circumstances remain unknown. Access to guns makes murder more accessible and easy for common citizens, there's no need for that. Yes people would start stabbing each other to death, murder'll always be inevitable, but homicide rates would most certainly decrease if you take the most efficient, clean,impersonal killing tools out of the equation. I suppose this is a philosophical, difference of opinion. I had to rewrite these answers a couple of time because I backspaced out of the thread (which made me really mad). The next answers will be a bit more brief because I'm getting tired and can't be bothered to retype my previous answers. Homicide rates would most certainly decrease if you take the most efficient, clean,impersonal killing tools out of the equation. But I wish we were able to make the desire to kill redundant. But yeah. If one day I get a free wish then who knows... I'm aware of that, however when correlation occurs almost without exceptions in cases distributed all over the world (which means different political systems, health care policies, etc...) I think it's relatively safe to say there's a causal link somewhere. I was thinking of Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan. Sorry for the lack of specificity :p I like to argue, thanks for this. I'm really pissed of for pressing backspace a couple of times while writing this reply though so I'm going to call it a day here and end this on a musical note.

Congratz @lilmessi! @other contestants: new contest soon! ... Quack?

It's the most dangerous killing tool available to date. It's impossible to get rid of all of them. It is very possible to get rid of the majority. Both the knowledge and tools required to create alcohol are and have pretty much always been extremely available, I actually brewed my first liter of beer with my grandfather when I was 12. How many 12 years old do you know are capable of engineering and producing a gun and bullets from scratch? Criminals will still use guns, they'll probably sell some guns too, but keep in mind guns aren't consumables (well... I guess bullets are but let's just skip that one), they aren't supposed to be used for pleasure, and they aren't addictive. The prohibition argument doesn't make any sense here. Life isn't fundamentally unsafe, especially for humans. It becomes relatively unsafe when you give almost anyone the power to kill by pulling a trigger, there's actually data to prove this. The fact that citizens are allowed to casually wear arms in America doesn't seem to frighten criminal into not committing crimes / murder at all, quite the opposite actually. Stupidity + guns = tragedy. The only way to solve the problem is to take away guns out of the equation. You shouldn't blindly trust those with power. That club includes the Gun Lobby btw. What you should trust is empirical data. Again, take a look at the correlation between gun control strictness and murder rates / capita. This clearly false feeling of safety you get for free when you buy a handgun is just plain dangerous. A few sheeps getting killed by a few wolves. vs. Turning all sheeps into wolves. The first option cost much less lives. BOTH homicides (any weapon) AND firearm related deaths decrease when gun policies are stricter, almost without exception. http://www.gunpolicy.org/ http://www.guncite.com/gun_control_gcgvinco.html http://web.archive.org/web/20061104194222/http://www.unodc.org/unodc/crime_cicp_survey_seventh.html http://kff.org/other/state-indicator/firearms-death-rate-per-100000/ Again, weed is a plant you can easily grow, you can make alcohol with potatoes and water. It's much easier to almost completely eradicate production and sale of guns (like in many Asian countries).
