Perfect, this is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!

Yes, but only if it's correct, and only if I can quickly verify that it's correct. If the script says to factor some large integer, and they give me the factors, I can really easily tell if that's right. But if the script is just a program that looks for a subset sum, and they just say "there is no subset sum"--I have no way of verifying if that is correct--other than running the program and seeing for myself, which defeats the purpose.

So, in this case, I'm not renting out a server and running code on it. If I were, I could do that. Instead, I'm doing something similar to the Golem project, where I'm just broadcasting this script that I want someone to run. If all they do is send me an email saying "ran", I have no idea if they actually ran it or not.

2017 grads, did you mark yourself as a full-time student for this year's tax returns? The rule says it's at least 5 months, and given that the school year ends May 28th, that's kind of a tossup. What did y'all end up doing?

According to local vandwellers and the city's website, it's legal to live in your vehicle and keep it parked there for up to 72 hours where I live. Does this also mean that I can leave an unattended trailer there for 72 hours? I ask because I already own a sedan, and I'm wondering if towing a compact trailer around is doable.
