There is a bright side to this - you're also rather important to the company. You're in effect the 1 in "bus factor 1" of several key activities that nobody else wants to do and nobody else is really qualified to do. Thi

I am confused how having read access to the registry allows local privilege escalation. As a Linux user, having read access to the registry sounds like having read access to /etc, which every user already has. What sensitive data is st

I guess this just shows how backwards and racist Chess terminology is. It may have been fine back in the day, but I want my children to grow up in a world where Blacks and Whites aren't at war. The sides should be switched to much more

The way I've heard it, they don't bother arresting people who are not almost definitely guilty. After all, if someone is proven innocent, that's a black mark on the judge, the prosecution and the entire police department.

If it doesn't work right in Firefox and Chrome, it's probably not standards-conformant and thus at a high probability of breaking when Chrome updates its layout engine. That's how I'd present the argument - making sure i

The promise isn't for the content to be free, but for access to be unrestricted. I want to pay money and get a DRM-free file. Bandcamp delivers on that promise, so that's the only place I buy music from. Media you get via torrent

Doesn't really bother me. Vim has had tags support for decades, so adding another very common source indexing service is fine.

That's how e.g. Python and Go do it. It's not pretty, but it is reliable. Going the other direction - calling programs with non-ASCII arguments is also a pain. I remember having to manually encode everything in the "mbcs"

It's fairly trivial to make one by dereferencing a pointer that just happens to be null based on user input, which the compiler can't check. There are several acceptable ways for the compiler to deal with it: 1. Require the progra

If it returns a temporary, you'll get a compile-time error, as the temporary cannot be bound to a non-const ref. I would prefer "const auto&" as you shouldn't be modifying temporaries, or "auto x{std::move(myWid

Won't the object be destructed though? So while the memory for the object is kept, the memory for the object's heap-allocated members is not. I.e. if you have a 100mb string, after only weak references are left you won't have

For sure, the fact it cannot support shared memory is one of the biggest drawbacks. Maybe catching shared memory setup and marking the pages as not readable, then catching read accesses would work.

This looks a lot like the quincuncial projection applied to a cube map render, with some custom logic to subtly warp geometry in a stable way so as to make certain details pop based on distance. You can try for yourself by downloading blink
