In C++, you get an error at runtime: https://godbolt.org/z/C_JFez Note though that C++ allows using enums as bitfields, so some form of loading non-enumerated values has to be allowed.

Inflation is influenced by minimum wage. If wages rise but people are competing for access to an artificially restricted housing market, all that will happen is house price and rents go up to absorb the increase; the only people better off

HS2 isn't about making journeys faster, it's about adding capacity. If you're building a new line, you may as well make it high speed; higher speeds mean more capacity since you can run trains closer together in time for a pa

It's legal if implementation-specified . The clause you're looking at says how implementations that add extra signatures for main are required to map the return value (if any) to an exit status. You can't just make up extra

You don't need Hawking radiation for mass-energy conversion; simply dropping matter into a Kerr black hole gives up to 42% efficiency, and is far more controllable.

Currently NIMBYs complain about changes that they perceive will lower the value of their real estate. Complaining instead about things that would increase the value of their property seems like a good change.

memset, sure, then you copy the struct (return it or pass it by value) and the compiler won't bother copying the padding bytes. Or worse, an optimizing compiler will see that you're writing to padding bytes and helpfully no-op it.

You're misinterpreting the parent. They mean that they thought data() of the target after the move would be the same as data() of the source before the move. This is guaranteed by vector, for example.
