User: whats a better word than "hacking" when it comes to cybersecurity and programmers hacking into apps
Assistant: A better word to use in the context of cybersecurity and programmers accessing apps might be "exploiting" or "testing." If you're referring to ethical hacking, you could also use "penetration testing" or "vulnerability assessment." These terms convey a more constructive or analytical approach rather than the often negative connotation of "hacking."

This round is a fast-paced competitive programming event in which participants will solve five questions, ranging in difficulty from easy to hard, presented in no particular order. The grading will reflect the difficulty of each question, and while there will be no negative marking for incomplete questions, participants will incur penalties for any points related to questions they do not fully complete.

User: how to completely reset all my npm packages downloaded on my system (delete all of them)
Assistant: To completely reset all your npm packages and delete them from your system, you can follow these steps:

### 1. Remove the Global Packages
If you want to remove globally installed npm packages, you can use the following command in your terminal:

```bash
npm list -g --depth=0
```

This will list all globally installed packages. Then, to uninstall each one, you can run:

```bash
npm uninstall -g <package-name>
```

For a more aggressive approach to removing all global packages at once, you could use:

```bash
npm ls -gp --depth=0 | awk -F' ' '/ / {print $2}' | xargs npm uninstall -g
```

### 2. Delete the `node_modules` Directory
For local projects (i.e., those with their own `node_modules` folder), navigate to your project directory:

```bash
cd /path/to/your/project
```

Then, delete the `node_modules` folder:

```bash
rm -rf node_modules
```

### 3. Clear the npm Cache
To clear the npm cache, which can help resolve potential issues or leftover files, run:

```bash
npm cache clean --force
```

### 4. (Optional) Remove `package-lock.json`
If you want to reset the package versions as well, consider deleting the `package-lock.json` file:

```bash
rm package-lock.json
```

### Summary
After following these steps, you will have removed all global npm packages, deleted all local project dependencies, cleared the npm cache, and, if chosen, also deleted the lock file. You can then reinstall your packages as needed.

### Note
Always exercise caution when running commands that involve deleting files. It's wise to back up any important project files or configurations before proceeding.
