lol. According to Larry Wall, there are three great virtues of a programmer: Laziness, Impatience and Hubris (no, not that Hubris).Quote:

You've been a good friend of the clan for years, and helped us out when we wanted to get a COD team together with some really useful training (not your fault that we were never particularly good at it!!). You have my vote.
good answer regarding graffiti.Quote:

You a programmer? Geez dude, why did you not say so, I have a ton of great puzzles designed specifically for programmers and logically minded individuals... but I'll let you have a go at the current ball bearing one first.
Not sure whether this is a good or bad thing... :blink:Quote:

Working out using the center points as a base and doing triangulation... I make the assumption that if the spheres are perfect that the distance between the centers of two touching spheres will be exactly 2r. I work out the second stack's height to be 1.7071 if you place a sphere on top of a 2x2 square layout of spheres, or 1.75 if you place a sphere on top of a triangle of spheres.
This is dusting out some really old cobwebs. Haven't touched this kind of math in years :|
I'll post my working out if needed.
I bet you can fit a 1000 in there if you grind them up into a powder.
Nimbzy,
So you played COD 4 competitively? If so for which clan?
Favorite band of all time.
Seeing as you read a lot, favorite series of books and author.
Why is whiskey yellow/gold?
PS. Nimbzy should be accepted regardless of how many balls he can fit into a container, as he is the best medic, IN THE WORLD.

From there on the few of us who still kept going joined iMg and played at MPLD. There was a heck of a lot of clan rotation in CoD since people came and went so frequently. I also had no interest in joining one of the bigshot clans because of the total arrogance some of them showed.
Favourite band: Dream Theater
I don't find time to read fiction. I think the last fictional series I read was Harry Potter when I was still a kid. Most of what I read now is technical and relates to my profession; in which case Bob Martin's Clean Code series is my current favourite.
Whiskey: Food colouring.
And dude, medic whoring on Guilin Peaks ftw! :P
