This happens more often then you might think. A lot of people are adding padding when they need to store IPs. So they can be easily sorted using alphanumeric sort: 192.168.001.001 192.168.001.002 192.168.001.003 ... 192.168.001.254 And then

I am so late to the party I feel so ashamed but here is my 2 cents. Please, please, travel, and by that I don't mean doing a full a world tour. Just explore what exists outside of your surroundings. Exercise yourself to questioning. Ma

I have dabbled a bit with it quite a few times and was quite happy about it, but my main issue is that AFAIK there is not "pure" Java API for Realm. It seems there have been attempts at removing Android dependencies but it seems t

X can always by devided by 2, meaning the condition will always be false thus returning "a" unchanged. "xor eax, eax" is a shortcut to "mov eax, 0".

Short answer is "no". Long answer is, actually these changes already happened quite a while ago. Most of the time, we tend to forget IPv6 is in fact more or less 20 years old now. Support for IPv6 in OSPF (OSPFv3) was introduced i

Please listen to this advise. Having the proof or maybe only some hints is very important. That might sound far etched but this anonymous person could very well be an insider employee trying to blackmail your company for personal reasons.

I really do think the same. Actually the crime sera drama "Columbo" worked that way as we knew beforehand who the culprit was. The point of the whole episode was to discover why the victim was killed and not how or who by.
