hotel occupancy counting problem The multiple-choice question:  A hotel has four vacant rooms. Each room can accommodate a maximum of four people. In how many different ways can six people be accommodated in the four rooms? (A) 4020 (B) 4068 (C) 4080 (D) 4096.  My attempt:  If there were no 'four person' constraint, the six people could be accommodated in $4^6=4096$ ways. however, this number includes combinations with 5 or 6 people in one room, which should be excluded.  If one room has 5 occupants, one other room has 1 occupant. The number of '1,5' combinations is ${{4} \choose {2}}$=12. If one room has 6 occupants, the other three rooms have no occupants, and there are four such combinations.  I believe the answer should be $4096-12-4=4080$, but am not confident. I'd be grateful for any comments on my attempt. Blocking web sites with Windows Firewall Is it possible to use Windows Firewall to block specific web sites for all browsers?

In the DC Comics Universe, What Happens to Earthlings Under a Red Sun? I am just a high school student, and I haven't seen much in mathematics (calculus and abstract algebra).  Mathematics is a system of axioms which you choose yourself for a set of undefined entities, such that those entities satisfy certain basic rules you laid down in the first place on your own.  Now using these laid-down rules and a set of other rules for a subject called logic which was established similarly, you define certain quantities and name them using the undefined entities and then go on to prove certain statements called theorems.  Now what is a proof exactly? Suppose in an exam, I am asked to prove Pythagoras' theorem. Then I prove it using only one certain system of axioms and logic. It isn't proved in all the axiom-systems in which it could possibly hold true, and what stops me from making another set of axioms that have Pythagoras' theorem as an axiom, and then just state in my system/exam "this is an axiom, hence can't be proven".  EDIT : How is the term "wrong" defined in mathematics then ? You can say that proving fermat's last theorem using the number-theory axioms was a difficult task but then it can be taken as an axiom in another set of axioms .  Is mathematics as rigorous and as thought-through as it is believed and expected to be ? It seems to me that there many loopholes in problems as well as the subject in-itself, but there is a false backbone of rigour that seems true until you start questioning the very fundamentals . I want to apply for Schengen visa, but employer NOC which is mandatory document for visa is not available with me I have resigned from my current company and will be joining a new company soon.   Hence, I cannot get a leave approval letter from my current company, and if I decide to join a new company and then request a NOC (No Objection Certificate) it will be late for visa process completion because of my traveling dates.   What can I show to the embassy as an alternative to this NOC document? Is it possible to flash a custom ROM without a custom recovery image For an un-rooted device, almost all articles/forum posts I've read say that in order to flash a custom ROM you first need to flash (or boot) a custom recovery image like TWRP.   I'm not sure I understand why. If the bootloader is unlocked shouldn't it be possible to manually flash images that make up the custom ROM to the required partitions with fastboot flash &lt;partition&gt; [ &lt;xxxx.img&gt; ], and leave the stock recovery untouched.  I realize that this may be difficult and that there is no benefit in doing it this way, but I'm curious to know whether or not it is possible, and if not, why? In the definition of , I read the following text:     Many of the act's provisions were to sunset beginning December 31, 2005, approximately 4 years after its passage. In the months preceding the sunset date, supporters of the act pushed to make its sunsetting provisions permanent, while critics sought to revise various sections to enhance civil liberty protections. In July 2005, the U.S. Senate passed a reauthorization bill with substantial changes to several sections of the act, while the House reauthorization bill kept most of the act's original language. The two bills were then reconciled in a conference committee that was criticized by Senators from both the Republican and Democratic parties for ignoring civil liberty concerns.   What does sunset mean? In which cases can the word be used with a similar meaning? Preview: PDF Highlighting & Search Stop Working until Restart A problem has recently become much more prevalent for me when using Preview to search PDFs for text (using Command + F or the search box in the upper right).  At first, everything generally seems to go fine:    (as it should be) a list of thumbnails appears in the sidebar, indicating all of the pages that contain the search term. Generally, though not always, the term I search for will be highlighted on the first page that it occurs on.   But, after this, things quickly start malfunctioning:   Generally speaking, if I click on thumbnails lower on the list, Preview will take me to that page in the PDF (like it used to).  But, it will no longer highlight the searched for terms. Instead, Preview will make a low-pitched beeping noise of the sort that occurs when one tries to perform some un-permitted action in a variety of mac situations. Furthermore, once this occurs, I cease being able to make any highlights at all in the document I am viewing with Preview.  In fact, I can't even select any text any more.   Below is a list of unsuccessful efforts to resolve this:   Closing the side bar does not work to resolve this. x-ing out the search box in the upper right does not resolve this. Selecting the "Tools" menu and then "Text Selection" does not work either, nor does clicking on the text selection icon in the edit panel. If I quit preview and then re-open the PDF, I am able to highlight again.  But, the problem will re-surface as soon as I try performing another search. Working with the same files in other PDF programs (e.g. Skim, Acrobat, etc.) poses no problems.  I'm quite certain it isn't a problem with the underlying PDFs. None of the responses to  resolve this.  (indeed, I supplied one such response myself a while ago, but that trick and the others no longer work).   I've used Preview for many years without problem.  This issue started cropping up relatively recently for me, I believe within the past 3-4 months.  I had hoped that upgrading to Catalina might resolve it, but it did not.    I'd like to think I am fairly sophisticated with computers (I have a reputation of close to 8,000 on the main stackoverflow page), but I am baffled by this.  I also don't have a good handle on how I can get diagnostic information or how I can create a reproducible example.    Any leads on how to tackle this would be greatly appreciated. I have two groups with equal variances and unequal sample size (28 and 8) and I want to run a Student t-test. Can I use Mann-Whitney considering that the variances are equal? Do you think if there is a better test to compare the samples? Question: For every polynomial $P(x)$ of degree at n we have $$\sum_{i=0}^{n+1}(-1)^i\binom{n+1}{i}P(i)=0$$  Well I was inducting on degree of the polynomial, for $n=0$ its true and I got a bit confused in the inductive step, actually I cant figure the inductive step.   Is this property (if true) a famous one?  Thank you for your help. List of all active modules used in a site Employment office encounters an alien masquerading as a human I'm looking for a story where a guy who has done job interviews for years is approached by an applicant, and because of his experience talking to people (I remember he specifically mentions having done something like 250,000 interviews), he immediately is able to tell the applicant is actually an alien in human form.  He goes on to help the alien understand human emotions &amp; teaches him how to fit in. In swimming, is there a competitive advantage to being in one lane or another? Upon observing swimming competitions in the Olympics, it is not clear to me whether one of the eight lanes is more advantageous versus another. I've seen vague claims but nothing backed up with science.  In competitive swimming, is there an advantage to being in one lane or another? Furthermore, does the stroke (ie: breast, fly, freestyle, etc.) affect this effect? How to insert strings containing slashes with sed?
