E.g.:

README.cironot-readme.cirothe table of contents for index.html also contains the headers for not-readme.ciro producing:

This feature means that you can split large input files if rendering starts to slow you down, and things will still render exactly the same, with the larger table of contents.

This will be especially important for the website because initially I want users to be able to edit one header at a time, and join all headers with \Include. But I still want the ToC to show those children.

This was a bit hard because it required doing RECURSIVE SQL queries, something I hadn't done before: stackoverflow.com/questions/192220/what-is-the-most-efficient-elegant-way-to-parse-a-flat-table-into-a-tree/192462#192462 + of course the usual refactor a bunch of stuff and fix tests until you go mad.

As mentioned at Section "Computer security researcher", Ciro Santilli really tends to like people from this area.

Also, the type of programming Ciro used to do, systems programming, is particularly useful to security researchers, e.g. Linux Kernel Module Cheat.

The reason he does not go into this is that Ciro would rather fight against the more eternal laws of physics rather than with some typo some dude at Apple did last week and which will be patched in a month.

The brutality of this game, the fact that you can get killed at any point, and all players accept that, is awesome.
