Every time I write a private message to someone through forums or emails, why am I so careful and take a large amount of time thinking and perfecting my response?

mınxomaτ

Why is that an issue.

Jester Tran

@mınxomaτ Inefficient use of time. It takes me on average 30min to write three sentences

mınxomaτ

Thinking is never an inefficient use of time.

Jester Tran

Maybe it’s been linked here, but: scottaaronson.com/busybeaver.pdf

> In most algorithmic study, efficiency is the primary concern. In designing [the Turing machine] Z, however, parsimony is the only thing that matters. One historical analogue is the practice of “code-golfing”: a recreational pursuit adopted by some programmers in which the goal is to produce a piece of code in a given programming language, using as few characters as possible.

Q: Sudoku Solver: Create an algorithm to solve basic sudoku puzzles

Obviously it would be unreasonable to ask for code that could universally solve all sudoku puzzles. Therefore in this case I'm only asking for something which can solve fairly easy puzzles. To define "easy", the code should be able to (at least) solve the following puzzles as well as others...
