Well Scala programs only get half compiled at command time, the other half is JIT at runtime.

But no not hours bad.. but say a 3 minute partial compile for a 1 line change is enough to kill your dev cycle. (Not sure it is 3 minutes bad for most projects these days, but its very hard to have a 2 second Scala compile)
For IE it's not even npapi, it's ActiveX (!) plugin[1]. Yes, Edge does not support neither npapi nor ActiveX.

9 Must Try Growth Hacks
It is extremely hard to use compared to Signal or Whatsapp and has worse cryptographic properties.
The SNES, N64, and the GameCube were not really behind technologically (they were different from their competitors, but not behind). The Wii was the first Nintendo console that was clearly just flat out technically inferior to all of its competitors.
I sleep with my Fitbit Charge 2 on my wrist, and I found that the Resting Heart Rate value is extremely sensitive to what happens with my body. Drank a little alcohol? See a change on my Resting Heart Rate value for that night. Got too much stress, or maybe spent a day at home without exercise? Yes, I see it on the graph. So my question is whether such an event as the one that is described would be clearly visible to the fitness tracker, maybe even clear enough to alert the wearer.
Last time I had my cholesterol checked about 6-7 years ago, it appeared normal, though my HDL was low. I'm 31 now and have been having a weird heart feeling. Not a pain though, but like beating issues. Depending on what I eat and which supplements I take, my heart starts beating weird and my blood pressure goes up.

The weird beating seems like my heart is either beating normally or weakly and then there's a "hiccup" every minute or so. When I lay down with my ear against the pillow when this happens, I can hear my blood flow, which seems weird, like my blood containing tubes/pump is wider than the amount of liquid in the chambers; like an echo-y water flow sound.

Part of me thinks this is the L-arginine I take (to get "swoll" as they say) combined with the amount of caffeine I take in? Another part of me thinks this is a valve issue from bacterial endocarditis, since I still have my wisdom teeth, though I brush 3+x/day, but I've had 2 splinter hemorrhages without trauma on my fingernails recently, though I like any signs of Osler nodes.

I'm 6'1", 184-ish, muscular build, so maybe it's all in my head and the above paragraphs are the result of hypochondria exacerbated by a lack of health insurance or the money to even pay for a routine doctor's visit. I mean, I eat all healthy homemade food; currently cooking black beans + garbonzo beans to make a hummus of sorts.

Hoping my anxiety stays tempered long enough for me to get back on my feet while finishing my current project.

EDIT: I forgot to mention a frequent shortness of breath, though like in Jason Scott's case, this doesn't seem to prevent me from physical activity, but it bothers me that I can't take deep breathes all the time.
Hangouts on Chrome uses NaCl for some visual processing (like hats), or at least it used to. So the NaCl code may show up as a plugin process.

BLS statistics say there are about 1.1 million "Security Guards" employed in the US. [1] (For comparison, the total of Taxi Drivers and Chauffeurs, Heavy and Tractor-trailer Truck Drivers, Bus Drivers, and Delivery Truck Drivers and Driver/Sales Workers is about 4 million in total [2].)

Is it reasonable to compare the scale of impact that this might have in the security space, compared to, for example, how self-driving cars might impact space of professional drivers?

Knowing next to nothing about the physical security world... what fraction of these roles are serviceable by a robot like Cobalt's video shows today? What further advances are required to be more useful?

>outdoors, at the gym

Gyms are usually indoor facilities.

Also, you could take your Switch to the gym. Use it between sets or watch something while on the treadmill.
They are both real problems. Anecdotally, I've seen a lot more cases of specialists failing to communicate effectively than of non-specialists ignoring well-expressed advice. It's kind of endemic among techies, unfortunately.
There are plenty of those available in the US. Check out https://www.alivecor.com/en/ for an example.
Yes, that is how I remember it as well.

By all indications, you should be able to pick some up from walking into stores. While there is probably not a huge supply, there seem to be a lot of units available for walk-in customers. YMMV though.
People used to need weeks to travel across an ocean, toughen up.
It's absolutely a true statement, and it is absolutely and completely an inappropriate tone for the CEO of a company to take toward someone that just got fucked over by his company's changing policies, after his company pushed people into taking out loans they can't realistically afford.

It's like Taleb's stuff about skin in the game--Kalanick pushed the risk of his business model onto drivers like this one while keeping the upside for himself. When the driver got screwed by Kalanick's pricing changes, he comes back with technicalities and finally blames the guy for not taking responsibility. Talk about projection!

That's the reason why this is disrespectful to the driver. Kalanick minimizes his loss and refuses to take any responsibility for it himself, despite the fact that the only real mistake the driver made was trusting Uber.
It’s been almost three years since Flint’s water crisis began
While a low reading on one of those meters (coupled with symptoms) is likely a good sign that something's wrong, I think it's quite possible for the pulse oximeter to read normal even if you're having a heart attack. There's a saying in medicine that "time is muscle" because the longer you wait to "fix" an obstruction in a coronary artery, the more likely that region of heart tissue is to die. However, tissue death is not (usually) sudden, so even if you're experiencing a significant heart attack, the heart may be pumping sufficiently and the lungs functioning normally to give you a normal oxygen reading

(this is not medical advice)
I don't think this is anything particularly new. There's a pretty old saying (that is constantly mis-attributed[1]):

> If you're not a liberal when you're 25, you have no heart. If you're not a conservative by the time you're 35, you have no brain.

Within a capitalist society, young people on the whole have less, but have to work for everything. After a decade or two working to earn stuff, you feel like other people should do that too. You can chase the reasons why down a million psychological rabbit holes.

That said, there's no reason why this would not be more true now than it ever has been before. Adjusting for inflation, we're paid the same as our parents but houses and rent is 10× what it was for them. (At least in the UK) the post-war decade-long housing boom flooded the market with cheap but good stock. Councils used to build for their own social care, and these eventually went on the market too. Now we only get mega-developers holding land until they get approval for high-density crappy houses.

That's a very distinct shift from socialised building projects to capitalist building. And it's skewed our entire economy, and really hobbles anybody on a lower income without a house to inherit.

The only thing I'd add from Chris's blog post is that in the workflow we tend to see is that most of the transformations tend to be done after loading into the destination. For example, in Redshift the transformations could be defined in SQL or Python UDFs.

But a game ships with a runtime, not an SDK. If you can build the game's content using proprietary tools, but ship that content backed by a FOSS engine compatible with the output of those tools, I think that gets you 90% of the way to being able to claim that your game itself is FOSS. Sure, people might not be able to alter and "recompile" the art assets from source without proprietary tooling, but they can alter the game mechanics, the scripting, the levels, etc. freely; and also introduce their own assets using whatever tooling they like.

Nintendo can't really afford to sell hardware at a loss, for years, just to build-up market share, like Sony/MS can. Sony/MS can just do some Excel accounting magic to hide those losses under the giant umbrella of all their other businesses, but Nintendo - they have to make a profit, period.

Also, yes, gameplay is what matters. I have a PS4 Pro/VR combo and I can't say the games are that much more exciting than what I played on the PS3. Is Open World Game XYZ so much more incredible than what Rockstar pulled off with GTAV on the PS3? Eh....

We're plateauing quickly in terms of graphical fidelity. The PS3 was an easy sell, a huge upgrade over the PS2, but the PS4 - not so much. "It's kinda like the PS3, but crisper!" is how I'd describe it to a non-hard-core gamer.

Give me 60 fps and 1080p and I could give a rat's ass about how complicated the shader that renders photo-realistic ear wax in my RPG protagonist's ears is - that's not going to make me shell out another $400.
Unity is opening more and more of the engine up.

Have you actually used godot? It has "read" 2d mode, that makes it interesting enough - and there are multiple commercial titles built in it.

In general I agree with you - but saying that "you should use Unreal/Unity" on every project is not the right answer in my opinion.
How the Theory of Sponsored Mobility Predicts Your Career Success
I'm currently on anticoagulants for my second run-in with pulmonary embolisms, and they were fairly different experiences both times. The first one started out as what felt like a sore shoulder, which "migrated" down to my chest over a few hours, and then felt like I had a cactus in my lungs. The second instance felt more like pressure than pain, but was similar enough to the tail end of my previous encounter that I was able to recognize it.

In the first case, a clot dislodged and traveled through my heart about an hour after I arrived at the hospital. I had debated waiting until morning as I wasn't sure an ER visit was necessary, but if I had waited any longer I likely would not have survived.
so I guess that means QEMU always does full translation instead of just translating the privileged ops? (ala what vmware's innovation back in the day was)
How Domino’s Became the Pizza for the People
If your daughter wants a 3DS to play portable games (with nothing specific in mind) then waiting for a Switch instead of getting a 3DS is probably worthwhile.

If, however, your daughter wants a 3DS for specific titles, you're still better off getting her the 3DS. For example, if all of her friends are currently playing and trading on Pokemon Sun/Moon, getting a Switch will basically have her feeling left out.
At first I looked for information on the Internet about the pain in my arms an saw that, among many other things, it could be a heart problem.

A couple of weeks later I started feeling pain on the left side of my jaw (much like a toothache) at the same time I felt the pain in my forearms. Searching again on the Internet I saw that now it was quite probably a heart problem.

About 48 hours after that, the pain in my arms wasn't letting me concentrate on anything (it wasn't stronger, but it felt different, it made me feel that something was really wrong with my body), that's when I went to the emergency room at the hospital.

I wouldn't count on it. During a heart attack, it's the blood flow to the heart muscle that's blocked, but the lungs are still working and oxygenating the blood. So these oxygen meters will show a normal value, since your finger is still receiving the normal amount of oxygen in the blood.

For a pulmonary embolism, on the other hand, I'd expect them to be useful. And always keep in mind that they can't detect carbon monoxide poisoning, even though the blood oxygen is low in that case.
Any sufficiently complex data model will run into an issue where you need a mechanism to selectively render resources differently for different purposes. Putting new routes in place is a heavyweight way of doing this, and query-parameter mechanisms is a real pain. GraphQL started because RESTful APIs at FaceBook were causing great pain for their mobile clients (multiple round trips for data, full data sets, versioning issues on server and client). We experienced the same problem for similar (but smaller) datasets.

I did a quick look for the fishworks commentary, but I can’t find the discussion (this was from before the Borgacle consumption of Sun) about how much of a mismatch it was to implement VM controls through a REST interface. Is it legit to POST /vm/:id/restart or should it be a PATCH /vm/:id with a payload of { "action": "restart" }? Or…

Many advocates of a particular programming style (OO, REST, TDD are some of the more vocal, but FP advocates are right in there, too) seem to adopt the view that it is appropriate for everything. There’s definitely some impedance mismatch if you try to be REST “pure“ between that and the real world, the same as there will be if you go “pure“ for OO or FP for the same sort of things, but there will be different impedance mismatches.

I really tried with HATEOAS, because it makes sense, but the overhead has turned out to outweigh the costs for everything we’ve needed.
Something along similar lines, I am not very comfortable in using cuss words in my native language whereas I feel less compunction in using cuss words in languages I have learned. In general I swear rarely, but when I do feel like swearing I feel it easier to do so in learned languages. Probably with my native language the cuss words trigger a stronger emotions, and making their usage repugnant (for me).

The article seems to meander. I'm not sure what the author is trying to convey. It goes into tangents and seems to be extremely wordy and hard to read in general. Half the article seems to be about living outside of a car and the rest is about photographic guitars (why these aren't in two separate articles I am not sure).
