Write a short story that describes a time when someone was faced with the inevitable destruction of their home. | A lantern shone atop a pole
Through shielded panes of glass
And brightly burned against a swollen
Cloak of smothering mass
Below it swirled, that blackened sheet
And sometimes it would climb
Along the stalk, then slip, retreat
Like now was not the time.
For all his life the flame stayed home
Atop his iron perch

Can you explain the implementation of ```std::function``` in c++?
Can you explain how copies of the ```std::function``` behave?
Do they copy the function itself? or they copy the callable?
If they copy the function, how do they do it?
If they copy the callable, how do they do it?
Do they | The implementation of ```std::function``` can differ from one implementation to another, but the core idea is that it uses type-erasure.

I am planning on using ethernet cable to connect my computer to my router, however I have heard that the cable itself can add a small amount of delay to the connection.

What is the "cards speak" rule in a poker game? Can a player say that a person has a certain hand and then the dealer awards the pot to the player who had the best hand? What are the caveats for this rule? What happens if a player deliberately overcalls his hand to induce a player with a better hand to fold? | Casinos in the US generally have the "cards speak" rule. That is, when a hand is properly tabled--exposed to everyone at showdown--it is the responsibility of all players, the dealer, floormen, and anyone else present to see that the pot is awarded to the best hand shown, regardless of what the players might say.
