I imagine one could generalize on the knight-pattern that is required of any solution to solve any n-sized board, to find at least one solution. I'll ponder it, but one of the things these people love to do is spout permutations, which look daunting, but there are ways to solve problems other than by "smart" permutations. Finding required patterns is one of them.

since we are on this subject...
The smallest board with a possible solutions is 4x4 right?
I don't think it is possible to solve a 3x3. 
I'm sure a 2x2 is unsolvable.
Why does google say that it took 1ms to solve a 1x1 board?
Also, their grid makes it look like it took 0ms to solve the 3x3 and 4x4 but I believe they are trying to say they're unsolvable. They really should've been more clear:

Look at their chart all the way at the bottom.
EDIT
Oh, I stared at the chart longer...
It is actually just that the data is unaligned with the headers at the top of the chart.
They are actually saying there are 0 solutions for board sizes 2 and 3.
I'm using Chrome, you'd think their chart would look right.

I have added the modifier UPDATED because there are some add-ons that come up in a search, but they all seem to be outdaated.

Who manual edits cookies, and why?
I once wrote a cookie browser, and even having done this, I have no idea why you'd want to edit them.
|
|
|
|
|
Maybe it's for some QA testing.
|
|
|
|
|
I don't know either, but evidently, there are a lot of apps out there for this.

OK, the reason is that when I go to the Yahoo Finance page to look at the ticker symbols that I have a position in, they are contained by default in the Recently Viewed section; the problem is that sometimes other ticker symbols get put in there that I don't like - e.g., the cancer stick maker Altria  - and I'd like to be able to remove them. Now, I could get around this by selecting my Watchlist, which has only the symbols that I want, but a lot of times I'm not in mood to dig around. And I figure that I could also make some changes to other cookies to get rid of behavior that I don't like, without blowing up the cookies, which would force me to enter passwords, etc.

|
So...once the cookie for the Yahoo Finance site contains certain information, you don't want it to change from that point forward?
Couldn't you change the ACLs to essentially remove all write permissions on the cookie file?
(I have no idea if Firefox uses separate files for individual site cookies...so this might not apply at all)

What's wrong with the Storage Inspector in the built-in developer tools?
You can edit cookies by double-clicking inside cells in the Table Widget and editing the values they contain.

Storage Inspector is out of date.
|
|
|
|

What does that mean? It's part of Firefox, so it's not like it's incompatible with the latest version or anything.

If there are two fat ballerinas, are they the pirouette too much?
