If anyone can figure out what acid this represents then I will start to release all of my games. Good luck.

the answer is no

i was hoping you would see that did you say funfair? i could go for some fun.

It's clearly sulfuric acid Probably not, but why would I care even if it were?

Because the guy actually has some pretty cool programs.

It's a zoom-in on Pac-Man's mouth, rotated at 90 degrees with added teeth and pixelated then put into BW and stretched. Obviously.

XD, Obviously

HAH! I TOTALLY KNOW WHAT THIS IS! What foreign classification system is this?!

I noticed the grid is exactly 8*8, so I tried turning it into binary with black square=1 and white=0. Both 11001101 11001111 11000111 11001110 11000110 11001110 11110101 11111111 and 11111111 11111111 11000000 11000000 10101011 11111111 10111110 11000111 yielded nothing significant in a binary-to-text. It's not acetic acid, is it?

I tried binary already, couldn't get anything meaningful. this isn't the notification I want.

If you search "8x8 grid representing an acid", you get a few results about amino acid identification using said 8x8 grid. don't know if this helps, but still interesting

I read the abstract of the paper on that, it's just about looking for patterns of codon usage. It's interesting research though.

I got this from going from left to right then top to bottom. 00110010 00110000 00111000 00110001 00111001 00110001 00001010 00000000 The last two are nothing, so I came up with 208191. I googled this and came up with a page for pyruvic acid, which had a catalog number of 208191. That's my guess. Without knowing what the pKa(s) are or what definition of acid he used...then it'll be hard to know what it is.

I was poking at it some more about translating two-bit sets WN->ES to nucleotides, but since codons are pairs of 3 the numbers don't really match up.
SpoilerEither way, it came out like this 0302 0300 0320 0301 0321 0301 0022 0000
inverted3031 3033 3013 3032 3012 3032 3311 3333
I think this would map to 0=T 1=C 2=A 3=G but I don't remember what the one thing said. Anyway, I think this is the wrong direction now.

Spoiler Also, for whatever reason, I got a yeah too
