My cat has food available all day long, we let her manage herself. European cats usually prefer 10-15 small snacks over the day rather than two-three large feedings.
Despite that, she knows we refill her kibbles at 7 AM so she will meow for food despite still having it available.

Hi All,
Time for a rant we have a 'Zero Trust' policy introduced today, I have committed my password so it's muscle memory I got to habit of typing it before the monitors had worked out what they were at wake up. Now, we have to use a PIN code to unlock the keyboard to allow the password option (3 times your out!) So can't log in that way anymore, If you use your ID card to unlock your PC it works(!) the old way was card in unlocks the PC, card out locks PC. Now take your card out PC's remains on unlocked open to all to use. Passwords for all systems have to be different, great in theory, in practice people write them on Post It's which end up stuck to the screen. Hacker proof if you can't read... It gets worse...

creator probably anointed manager of the year for acute technology skills. Probably a former specialist.
Specialist: a person who knows more and more about less and less until he knows everything about nothing. Then, he is ready for management.

As a senior network security specialist, I would recommend folding post it notes for more secure system. I will require unfolding process which can be tracked by security personnel who will be standing behind you all the time. If you people do not have one security person each, then you are far behind rest of the secure world.

The Gathering - When We Fall[^]
Somehow I completely missed The Gathering's new album, Beautiful Distortion, which was released in April.
The Gathering is a legendary Dutch band who started out as a doom metal band, pioneered in the gothic metal scene, and made a style switch in 98 with their fifth studio album.
What we hear today is alternative rock with shoegaze and even some trip hop.
They went on a break in 2013, which was also the year of their last release.
But apparently, they're back!
I'm not a big fan, but I do like their music and I always give their new albums a listen.
In this case the album really caught on and it's on repeat, with this track in particular.

My hubby is in the backyard building FSM only knows what for the chickens.
I'm in here trying to work out a problem at runtime that I solved at compile time already in spades.
And I realize how spoiled I am by template metaprogramming. Some problems are actually *easier* to solve at compile time using the aforementioned technique. That kind of caught me by surprise, actually, until I ran into it.
I'm having to convert digital audio samples from one bit depth to the other, one sample rate to the other, one channel config to another and composing something to do so efficiently at run time on a tiny device.
I do something similar in my GFX library at compile time no problem, because I can pseudo-dynamically manipulate types themselves, which can make things much easier, particularly when you don't know the size of your data ahead of time.
I was thinking of making a daisy chaining jump table to do each of the conversions in turn, and build that table at run time. Each function in the jump table would a read buffer to a write buffer, performing one of the conversion steps but it seems rickety and complicated.
I'm not looking for solutions here - I'm good with the challenge - just vent/praising C++ compile time vs anything else (including C++) at runtime.
I did like being surprised by a compile time problem being much easier that a runtime problem using metaprogramming techniques.
To err is human. Fortune favors the monsters.

I cannot believe it.
To me, C++ metaprogramming is just hieroglyphs. 
Anyway, error reporting should make you feel better.
