Browser integration for KeePass is non-existent. What I found a few years ago when I tried, is that you install a plugin to KeePass that basically exposes your database to queries from other approved applications. The browser plugin will

I feel like a lot of the complaint here is why logging systems typically have levels? I use the following philosophy. Typically PROD would run at WARNING or maybe INFO, and never at DEBUG unless there's something happening that we ca

I think the constraint of expanding the house prevented a build like you're suggesting. I personally think it's a silly constraint when the plan is already 3000+ sqft, which is larger than anything used as non-communal shelter by

Is it not fraud to claim a scientific backing behind the concepts, when no such backing is provided, and likely doesn't exist? Is it not fraud to claim to be an "expert" in a field in which you have no formal training and li

I guess "teaching" can be done passively, though I feel like the context of my comment made it clear that I meant "teach" as a purposeful action. Maybe you can read it as, "we never instructed him to", if bein

Probably relevant to note that Minecraft stores the entire chunk once it's generated. (Of course it has to -- it's malleable.) And that's a lot more information than a height map and texture. It looks like Star Citizen did

That's like saying that the tendency of wolves to eat prey can't be used to describe a maximum capacity of wolves given an amount of prey. Maybe we could support more wolves if they starved a little? Or if they started eating pe

I thought the article was very direct and fair about the fact that the system in question seems based on DiSC, and that there's not enough evidence to really say one way or the other.

It is. Myers-Briggs has four axes: I/E, N/S, T/F, P/J. There's also a whole sub-layer of dominant and auxiliary functions.

Except, there's not really a clear signal of "Hey, a bunch of people want this!" unless they all just hop on the torrent and hope for a seeder to join. If I go to a store and they don't have bread, I'm not waiting

I'm pretty sure that longer messages still generate multiple "packets" or whatever you want to call them on the backend. Which is important if you're paying per packet. It's just that every modern phone knows how

You don't call the bank, check whether it's legitimate, then wait for them to call you again . You call, confirm that they were attempting to contact you, then complete the issue on that same call.
