https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clinical_death

"Clinical death is the medical term for cessation of blood circulation and breathing[...] It occurs when the heart stops beating in a regular rhythm, a condition called cardiac arrest. The term is also sometimes used in resuscitation research.

Stopped blood circulation has historically proven irreversible in most cases. Prior to the invention of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), defibrillation, epinephrine injection, and other treatments in the 20th century, the absence of blood circulation (and vital functions related to blood circulation) was historically considered the official definition of death. With the advent of these strategies, cardiac arrest came to be called clinical death rather than simply death, to reflect the possibility of post-arrest resuscitation."
There is a stereotype that "black people can't swim". May be local to the US.
There is a growing body of research [1] that questions the usefulness of drugs for mental health. I personally know a case at a local hospital (in Europe) where a switch off meds and into therapy brought serious improvements in elderly patients.

Spoken Binary (and Hexadecimal)
Sometimes, but not often. Cops seem to lose the in-car footage anytime it reveals something damaging to them. Also, "inadmissable as evidence" happens to damning footage as well.

Judges and DAs side with the cops because there is no real impartiality. One protects the other because it's a machine designed for domination of the citizenry and it works extremely well. Look how many cases get plead out instead of going to trial.

I don't hate cops or anything, I just see the system for what it is. I don't know how we do better, but it's tiring to watch. It's the same way I feel about our Congress--all these establishment politicians doing work for big donors and working against the interests of the public.
I wonder if, from this: He gave as one example a book from an apparently-successful author (sales of over four million and counting) who firmly believed that the terser your code, the faster it ran. The author crammed multiple side effects into a single expression, used ternary operators like they were going out of style, and generally believed that run time was proportional to the number of semicolons executed, and every variable killed a puppy.

If the described author could be identified? Perhaps not absolutely, but they do have some specific stylistic quirks combined with a particular sales level.

> Disparities were greatest in swimming pools, with swimming pool drowning rates among blacks aged 5–19 years 5.5 times higher than those among whites in the same age group.

The reason it matters is because it is a fact. If you are a lifeguard at a swimming pool, research shows that you should spend MORE time watching after the black kids than the white kids. It's not about being PC, it is about keeping kids alive. If one group is more likely to drown, then you should know about it and spend more effort on it. Not pretend to be colorblind and increase the risk of causing deaths.
Well, this event happens enough that it might be worth studying the benefit of oxygen therapy, but I'd be very careful about the conclusions you draw from this.

Maybe the oxygen had a substantial positive effect, or maybe the child would've recovered on her own. We really don't know, since there are other reports of children who have good neurological outcome despite terrible prognosis [1] [2].

I'm suspicious because of the unusual and/or stereotyped responses in the Medical Gas article and the linked YouTube videos: "doctors said she had 48 hours to live" (doctors don't say things like that) and "this demonstrates that we're inducing 8101 genes!" (ummm, OK...), etc.

Also, be suspicious when something like this hits all the pseudo-news sites simultaneously. It reminds me of the articles that go something like "16 year-old cures cancer...DOCTORS HATE HIM!".

Finally, I'm very happy this little girl has been given a second chance and hope for her continued recovery. However, don't forget that a toddler was left unsupervised and submerged in a pool for 15 minutes. Some people call that an accident; some people call it neglect.

This wisdom as a 3 year old is why I am here today. (It wasn't almost-freezing in my case, but it was unseasonably cold water, which gave me a fighting chance.)

There's a tiny bit of jealousy that I didn't have a similar treatment as a kid, but I also have to count my blessings that I was born in a time where a UCLA professor could consult from a thousand miles away and that a concoction of steroids were enough to make the brain swelling dissipate, leaving me with damage small enough that neuroplasticity could do its wonderful magic.
As a general rule do not use `this.react` inside `setState({ ... })` - this will cause you problems eventually due state updates being async.

If you need to use state to set new state, use functional callback instead - https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/react-component.html#s...
Their whole statement is pretty concerning. They do not seem to be taking responsibility for writing a very basic and obvious bug that lost them millions of dollars. That'd end most companies.
> Why do we even allow cops on duty with the camera off?

Because nobody in their right mind is going to snitch while obviously on camera. You can call them "informants" or whatever, but cops rely on community sources for what's going on all the time. Those are informal relationships and documenting them on camera erodes trust of the folks giving up info.
I found this after coming up with my own #spokenDSL for binary at https://github.com/ttobbec/rubble (pt-BR).

I found mental math became a lot easier after practicing it a little bit.

Might be a good way to teach kids binary. Tell them nothing about bases, conversions, or anything, just give them decimal numbers with a different name, wait for the phonetic patterns to take hold, then show them what's behind it.

Urbit's Hoon also takes the approach of coming up with phonetics for ASCII symbols, which I find great. https://github.com/cgyarvin/urbit/blob/master/doc/book/3-syn...

Whoa there, slow down.

Unless you know the particulars, be very careful about tossing around words like 'neglect'.
This is why I've started to think about () as the Invoke operator. Seeing it should always make the programmer assume that whatever that operator is to the right of will likely be invoked with possible side effects.

Prove it, then. What are these "internal differences"?

Let me reiterate: there is literally nothing that relies on a proprietary or private API in the former Chrome merged apps and tabs implementation. Any app can do the same thing using completely public API's.

I've already linked the API's required to do this. I've linked a third party app that provides the exact same functionality. Which part is unclear to you?

Drowning is from a medical standpoint more complex than the simple notion I grew up with which was in essence "water fills your lungs so you can't breathe air".

In fact drowning does not require filling the lungs completely. Even a volume of a few milliliters/Kilogram of body weight is enough to cause drowning. Additionally, drowning can cause serious damage to the lungs themselves even if the patient survives initial attempts at resuscitation. The alveoli (functional unit of the lungs) are lined with a surfactant that is critical to the exchange of air to the blood stream. Water can severely disrupt the surfactant and impair function not just while the water is present but until the body is able to restore the surfactant layer. Damage to the patient's lungs in this case seems to have been mild enough that the oxygen therapy could do it's job.

Also notable is the 5 degree celsius water temperature (41 degrees Fahrenheit). This water temperature compared with the temperature of an olympic practice pool (~76 degrees Farenheit) is cool enough (though not as cold as many other reports) to trigger the so called "diving reflex" where stimulation of thermo-receptors in the skin triggers a vagal response that shunts blood away from the periphery and to vital organs.

Minimal surfactant damage and the diving reflex (as well as the patient's age) seem likely to some degree to have facilitated successful treatment of the patient.
4: -> Give to someone else to repair...
The few articles I read on the subject are actually quite clear that the current crisis is due to the increased control on prescriptions, and some talk about the side effects on people with actual needs:

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/jul/12/prescription...

https://www.theguardian.com/society/ng-interactive/2016/may/...

"The simplistic idea was, 'Oh, this is all about prescription opioids, and therefore that's all we need to do: reduce the supply of prescription opioids and we'll reduce all these deaths and people won't become addicted,'" said Alexander Walley, a physician and director of addiction consultation services at Boston Medical Center.

"Well, what we're seeing now is that even as you reduce access to prescription opioids, you're seeing an explosion of heroin use and heroin overdoses ."

Still, it's hard for someone that has not experienced these conditions to understand how prescribing these highly addictive substances could be justified.

Is it the only form of treatment ? How is treatment handled in other countries ?
All of the above. More specifically, correct meaning that it's doing what it's supposed to be doing (and figuring out what it's supposed to be doing will take a few brain cycles too), and nothing more.

My opinion is that code should be written in a way that makes it possible for an intern to read and update. I work with interns and fresh-out-of-college grads, and I need them to be productive too.
How exactly are startups supposed to get the best engineers without paying market rate for labour? Given the emphasis on only hiring rock stars, you would think that startups would offer higher salaries than megacorps. Relying on your prospective employee being too dumb to notice the raw deal that she is getting is not a recipe for hiring good employees.
For those who have never heard of OpenVMS they might want to get themselves a copy of this book:

http://theminimumyouneedtoknow.com/app_book.html

VMS was the OS of choice when it posolutely absitively had to work. It was even banned from the Black Hat conferences because it never gave up the flag. THEN they started adding OpenSource components and it became just as insecure and unstable as Windows and Linux. It is now, once again welcomed at Black Hat conferences because every piece of OpenSource on it is the same 8-lane wide security breach the other platforms have.

If you show me a nice program you coded, I'd say "that's cool".

If you show me a nice program you coded and tell me that you've been inspired by John Backus, Richard Stallman and Linus Torvalds, I'd say "yeah well it's still a program".
Since everyone agrees, I'll disagree :).

Seriously though, there's nothing in ternary operator that says it should only be used for side-effect free code. Especially in C++ (or Java), which doesn't even differentiate between stateless and stateful code on the language level.

IMO ternary is a perfect solution for the case where you want to assign or return a different value based on a boolean condition. Whether or not the code in branches is side-effect free is irrelevant.

Personally, where I try to avoid using ternary operator, is places where I don't care about returned value. So "yes" for:

auto foo = [condition] ? possibly_stateful_then() : possibly_stateful_else();

no for:

[condition] ? then_statement() : else_statement();
Wow there's very little need to be an asshole.

I'm not sure why everyone is piling on Solidity. At the end of the day, bugs happen in all languages, to all programmers eventually, and if you want to point the finger, it has to be at Parity.

If anything, it shows there needs to be a better process for peer review and some defaults in Solidity should be changed for security.

If you have no options left, I suppose it's the only sensible thing to do. Either you're 100% sure you die from cancer, or you take an unknown chance that might save you.

When you're living with the threat every day, and mostly every day you're fine and no one you know typically dies from the threat, maybe for years at a time, it's pretty normal for humans to dismiss that threat as not worth worrying about. Most people in the west don't take influenza seriously because most people don't get it, and even fewer people know someone who died from it. It's actually to the point where people don't really know what the flu is anymore, and attribute all sorts of other things colloquially to flu; stomach flu, 24-hour flu, etc.

Malaria is this foreign, exotic, tropical disease. Malaria is a disease somewhere else, not in mid-Michigan. When all you have to go on is news stories and statistics, and no personal experience, it's easy to go off the deep end without personal experience.

People do this with everything. Dangers you live with and manage are fine, foreign threats, un-experienced threats, unknown threats are magnified regardless of the actual threat. People are pretty bad when left to their own devices at relative risk management.

I mean how do you think driving in a blizzard sounds to someone who lives in a place where they only see snow on TV and in movies? Compared to a person who lives in a place with 3-5 months of winter driving every year. Or hurricanes for people who live through hurricane season and people who just see it on the weather channel. Drastically different experience certainly color a lot of worldviews on every sort of danger and threat.
Why Single-State-Tree patterns will take over Software Engineering
I was worried this would be a case of neural plasticity, where the brain just rewires itself around the damage (which is a thing, and it's super cool). But then I read this part:

> An MRI scan a month after the 40th HBOT session showed almost complete reversal of the brain damage initially recorded. Researchers believe the oxygen therapy, coupled with Eden having the developing brain of a child, had activated genes that promote cell survival and reduce inflammation—allowing the brain to recover.

We can reverse brain damage. Wow.
Does Rust/Julia/Python/Perl/R feature ternary operators?

The classic languages with ternary (C, C++, Java, PHP, JavaScript) all have the deficiency of distinction between statements and expressions. When everything in your language is an expression, the need for ternary disappears.
Async Hooks

* Multiple improvements to Promise support in async_hooks have been made.

Build

* The compiler version requirement to build Node with GCC has been raised to GCC 4.9.4.

Cluster

* Users now have more fine-grained control over the inspector port used by individual cluster workers. Previously, cluster workers were restricted to incrementing from the master’s debug port.

DNS

* The server used for DNS queries can now use a custom port.

* Support for dns.resolveAny() has been added.

npm

* The npm CLI has been updated to version 5.3.0. In particular, it now comes with the npx binary, which is also shipped with Node.
