I am still waiting for Tom 7 to make dumb defragmentation algorithm that operates under assumption that hard drive spins backwards and tries to relocate all data accordingly, so hard drive platter needs to perform full rotation to read one sector.
You could double the storage capacity by having the chip bags rotated up or down, so a chip bag up and forward would be 00 and a chip bag upside-down and facing backwards would be 11
You could also use the number of chip bags to store some information too. This would not compress the physical work required, but it would compress the physical space on the shelves that it takes up.
Forward = 0 = F Backward = 1 = B Downside up = 0 = D Upside down = 1 = U FB > DU 00 = FD 01 = FU 10 = BD 11 = BU "Hello World" or "01001000 01100101 01101100 01101100 01101111 00100000 01010111 01101111 01110010 01101100 01100100" in chipbags would be as follows "FUFDBDFD FUFDFUFU FUFDBUFD FUFDBUFD FUFDBUBU FDBDFDFDFD FUFUFUBU FUBDBUBU FUBUFDBD FUBDBUFD FUBDFUFD" to show the compression i will ( ) each pair of letters that represent a single state of a chipbag.

i improved the algorithm by adding a more efficient compression system: 1 corresponds to "Hello World!" and 0 corresponds to "0". I was able to encode it with 1 bag of chips
Thought exactly the same and wondered who else noticed it. This comment definitely needs more attention. It's also probably the reason why "compressing" small files with this method actually makes them larger.
“Saw a guy at Walmart laughing to himself while flipping chip bags around today for no reason. He did this for 15 minutes straight while whispering ‘Hello World’ to himself over and over...” Great video! I probably would’ve tried to explain the concept to the person restocking the aisle to try and do it without being a disturbance and looked even more insane. And probably kicked out
the millisecond after you rotate the pringles can: Uh-oh! it appears the file is corrupted because it moved .0000000000000001 degrees relative to the world!
You're missing the new line required by Unix and null termination byte used by C. That's gonna lead to a broken shell and a segmentation fault when trying to print that aisle.
This idea can also be used to demonstrate a bit flip error like when Karen comes and takes a turned-around bag off the shelf, exposing a forward-facing bag in its place.

1:51 that tree is super broken though. 'L' (01) has two children ('R' - 010 and 'D' - 011); as a result the string '01100' can either be interpreted as [01][100] ('LW') or as [011][00] ('DO')

So glad I got out of retail but I definitely do not miss getting reamed for bad fronting in the middle of a rush where right after you front something, it gets moved/purchased.
One big problem with using a huffman tree for storing such a short string is that you need to store the tree itself, otherwise it won't make any sense and won't be decodable. Since only a few characters in the string actually repeat, the number of bags you'd need to flip would actually be greater than if you just stored it in plain text.
Flipping around a few chip bags is not the hardest thing in the world. Those 14 chip bags are divided up and organized by the actual brand route runners, so the worst it gets is that the lays guy has to move 2 chip bags... Big deal...
Walmart employee brushes _very lightly_ against Pringles can. 🍟 That Walmart now has a complete copy of the entire _Wikileaks_ repository, and the CIA are now _trying_ to drive as fast as a TGV to get there in time to contain it... 🙃
Since people remove bags and employees restock it's volatile memory, so you'd have to have a way to either do error correction or refresh the memory regularily
I wonder if you could create a pringles can neural network. The direction of the turn would be the weights of the hidden nodes. Could be quite powerful. Could use machine vision to read the weights from the cans.

2:46 , that is a very bad example as the character shown in the video is not just a lunatic, he is a known murderer, having about 86 found bodies of his murders, but it is believed that he hides MANY more bodies and people
The fact that a person found to have committed (As you say) at least 85 murders is enabled to be a lot younger looking and more physically attractive than a disabled LGBTQ+ person who has a completely clean criminal record says a *lot* of concerning things about the priorities of some common-law countries... 🔪💰📈🇬🇧♿🏚🤔

Slay Also “weird looks from others” is really something you create in your own mind about what you think the other person is thinking of you. You have no idea what they’re thinking or feeling about you so, practice that and eventually it won’t bother you so much
You could theoretically install doom if you used the chip isle in every Walmart in the US I looked it up the original doom is 2.39 MB. So we have to get a bit creative here. I saw one of the top comments on this video suggesting the storage capacity could be doubled if the bag could be rotated on its sides as well. So this would bring our total storage capacity to 1.2 megabytes. In order to up our storage to have doom we may have to also use the cookie isle. Assuming we use a similar system to the chip isle and the cookie isle stocks a similar amount of cookies and we are to use the same system of both rotating the cookies on an axis and using the front and back of the package we could theoretically up the Walmart chip and cookie storage to 2.4 megabytes leaving us with enough space to install doom with 0.1 megabytes leftover. As for actually playing it I don't know I didn't think that far ahead.
As a walmart employee as long as you aren't making a mess or disturbing people we don't care, usually when people filming get asked to leave it's teenagers doing stupid things
If I was asked to leave a Walmart, my first reaction would be to pull out my passport and say _„Too late...We already have!“_ 🇬🇧💨🇪🇺😉 (Definitely not my choice, mind you...But that's what happens when a country allows its entire media system to fall into the hands of one side of the house. 😔)
If we really wanted to fuck with the future survivors that will find our failed civilization, we should encode strings on large physical objects that won't move for really long time periods. Like huge boulders in the middle of nowhere or something, or pit mines.
I was totally expecting the data to be stored by the depth, colour and orientation of the chip bags, and I'm sure you could squeeze an error-checking bit into the sauce jars or the positions of the labels. But that compression is super cool!
the pringles plant produces more than 1 billion cans of pringles per year, if every pringles can is rotated by some random number, there is a solid probability that at least one cans rotation could be decoded into a playable game or readable text file. Think of how many times over hello world mustve been written by pringles cans Using this same thought process, every wheel ever put into use has seen the code of every game that has or has not been made ever

Chalkboard IDE is great because it comes with probably the biggest screen I've ever seen (more room to code) and the time it takes to write lines gives you time to think and incentivises clean and short code
yes, but this isn't a long enough text to be compressed if you also store the tree. Longer texts get compressed enough that you can store the tree too and still have a smaller file, but here if he were to store the tree, it would be longer than 88 bits
On one hand I really enjoyed the explanation and the concept of storing data on a shelf is very neat. On the other hand, oh god I can see this becoming a trend and I pray for my coworkers sanity.
So all the chip aisles in all the Walmarts have about as much memory as like an early 3.5-inch floppy disk. We've come so far! Also very much feel the anxiety of undertaking harmless mischief in public. Well done, you. This was hilarious and awesome. ^-^

Chalkboard IDE is great because it comes with probably the biggest screen I've ever seen (more room to code) and the time it takes to write lines gives you time to think and incentivises clean and short code
Aslume leaking again
Cheaper than a smartboard

don’t you also need to store the tree so you can decode it?
This was a fantastic idea and executed very well. Awesome!
Don't you need to store the tree so that someone could decompress the text?
yes, but this isn't a long enough text to be compressed if you also store the tree. Longer texts get compressed enough that you can store the tree too and still have a smaller file, but here if he were to store the tree, it would be longer than 88 bits
Thanks for this. You made me smile at the end of a long day.
But can it run Doom?
😂
You should have more subscribers, for someone with around 20k subs, I actually learned from this video and was entertained
Sheeesh we making it into weight watchers with this one 🔥🔥
Did you just secure erase the disk?
On one hand I really enjoyed the explanation and the concept of storing data on a shelf is very neat. On the other hand, oh god I can see this becoming a trend and I pray for my coworkers sanity.
So the huffman decoding would only work if you already know the precise tree that was used?
Yes, usually you store the huffman tree within the file you compressed with it, but I wanted to flip as few bags as possible
So all the chip aisles in all the Walmarts have about as much memory as like an early 3.5-inch floppy disk. We've come so far!
Also very much feel the anxiety of undertaking harmless mischief in public. Well done, you. This was hilarious and awesome. ^-^
0:16 Well... Brazil mentioned, I guess? Not the greatest Brazil mentioned, but... sure ig
Come to Brazil
Feel like I accidently walked into the sorcery class and the wizard professor is teaching his apprentices the basics of alchemy
2:40
Are you sure 14 > 44 😂
yes
Seeing him actually do it was really funny. Happy april fools my guy
I really love videos about computer science also playing out as an unconventional or funny way of storing data like the walmart chip aisle and I'm all for it
Now the question is… what’s a soft drive?
I don't know anything about computer science, but 1:50 looks a lot like morse code to me.
Or morse code just looks a lot like computer coding.
The video was also really fun!
the most polite april fools prank ever
the world will never be the same after this
New to this channel but that was really amusing and interesting!
Thanks!
absolutely insane
I noticed a bit of a problem in the Huffman tree, there is a node that has 3 children theoretically
