Unfortunately because of the way Bitwarden works you should consider your passwords compromised when Bitwarden itself gets hacked - regardless of vault encryption. Especially if you ever used the web login. To access your account you need t

Looking at the comments and article, I almost feel like a freak for actually not minding going back to the office. My commute to the office is about a 10 mins walk - maybe that’s the difference with many others here. Either way, I like the

What? I would argue that unordered_map is nearly always a reasonable choice when in need of an unordered associative container. There is nothing particular wrong with it. Not sure what your rationale is for saying it’s only useful for extre

CMake as a library with bindings for various scripting languages (e.g. Python) would make a lot of sense to me. Have the power of a proper scripting language and let the CMake library deal with generating the build system. I once looked int

Yes, so the structure itself has padding (added by the compiler). But that is regardless of whether it is in an array or not. OP seemed to suggest that C arrays introduce padding of some sort, which they do not.

Shooting should not be the starting point of law enforcement. Shooting should be a last resort. Implying that looting indiscriminately means shooting is a call to violence.

This was an ultrasound machine. Philips would first have you import the data in their own QLab software and from there export a copy (which misses some of the data from the private fields). With GE reading the data was completely impossible
