A one pager explanation I wrote after it finally clicked for me -- floating point is just binary scientific notation! Not sure why more places don't explain it like this. https://github.com/dasl-/floating-point-numbers#floating-poi...

All of your LastPass browser extensions should be updated to version 4.1.44 or higher
On firefox, the version I'm using is still 3.3.4, which is the version available from the mozilla addon store: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/lastpass-pass...
Why the discrepancy? Am I still vulnerable? In their blog post, they even note:

I agree with you that the traffic speed improvements being due to the bike lanes is poorly supported.
But still, this shows that there is room for intersection/street design improvements that do not slow down cars while making it safer for bikes.

Mr. Obama was angry at the revelations, privately excoriating Mr. Snowden as a self-important narcissist who had not thought through the consequences of his actions.
I could not disagree more with that sentiment.

To me, that is a perverse thought. I cannot justify the killing of innocents today to make the world a better place tomorrow.
