And it's precisely this type of hacking that a large portion of Dell's user base won't be able to tolerate. What Dell is probably most worried about is tech support, and it's not from the customers who know how to hack that they'll be receiving most of those calls.
If by "look at" you mean "compile" your statement makes sense. The source code itself is on the order of 100 MB if I remember correctly, but compiling it does take up much more space due to the intermediate files created, and it does take a few hours on a decent PC.
I've adapted my camper-spotting skills from Counter-Strike to spotting lurking cops while driving, for example. I think game skills definitely transfer to real life, if not always in obvious ways.
Sounds like there's nothing great about being intelligent. Aren't the simplest solutions generally the most desirable? (IOCCC is an exception) And isn't intelligence regarded positively because it allegedly leads to more desirable solutions?
To elaborate: the solution is easy. Since 1 and 8 are on the ends of the spectrum, they're the most versatile (they only have one dangerous consecutive adversary each), so they go in the middle. The rest is just details.
If two integers are the same, they're certainly not consecutive!
If by "consecutive" we really mean "the same", then this is unsolvable, as any cell that's not on the border has exactly eight neighbours (in case you're not playing Minesweeper at work right now).
BTW, I'm assuming that "8 cell grid" means "8x8 cell grid", where the cells are squares. Am I wrong on that one?

Ha! Maybe now we'll evolve new diseases to counter-balance all those man-made medicines!
If you had six fingers, and you wanted to give something the middle finger, which one would you give?
On second thought... typing would be awesome though!

>> "A lot of things have to change, like our automobile usage, suburban lifestyle, and the excessive packaging of one time use products."
You can say that again!
Jeez, but if you looked at the source code you'd know exactly how to use it! Whiner ;-)
Don't use ACCEPT_KEYWORDS! Use /etc/portage/package.keywords!
(sorry it sounds off-topic, all non-gentooers, but this command is evil and can break your system!)

There's eustress, e.g., an interesting challenge. There's distress, e.g., gotta finish the test in 5 minutes and you're only half done.
It simply doesn't make sense to lump those two distinct phenomena into a single "stress" and put a negative label on it.
Jeez, go have some coffee already! :)
Oh, I got the feeling the cops in GTA just don't care as long as you don't actually *hit* them of steal a car right before their nose ;)
WoW! Who coulda thunk?

Just mildly anonymous, eh?
Damn!

Real Men (TM) also don't ask on /. about how to do this ;) So let's keep the Real Men (TM) out of this.
Yeah, the thing is symmetrical. Whether or not you consider those distin ct solutions is, IMO, a matter of preference.
I don't see how higher mathematics plays into this... 1st grade starts with counting 1..10 (for those who missed out on it before that).
:)
Also, this would be a very poor way to show off intelligence
Oh, btw, the answer to the rose problem is posted anyway. In the javascript itself:
Result = 0 ;
for (var x = 1; x=5; x++) {
if (DieArray[x]==3) {
Result = Result + 2 ;
}
else {
if (DieArray[x]==5) {
Result = Result + 4 ;
}
}
}
I wonder what takes longer, reading my solution or deducing it from scratch...

Consecutive means e.g., (1, 2).
If two integers are the same, they're certainly not consecutive!

By his job you really mean his brain, right? ;)
There are no other rules? What if you fill the whole grid with the same number?
