Maybe pig colons are next up on the transplant list.

The real reason it takes time is because we try not to harm people even in experimental drug testing. It would be much faster to simply toss shit at the wall and see what sticks, but that's not exactly humane. So we have to find analogues that hopefully mimick humans will enough, but they don't really work well. So it takes lots of time to build up enough evidence with those preliminary tests to convince the safety board to allow human trials. Then trials have to slowly scale up to limit the amount of people harmed by unforseen effects with a lot of time between as the safety board reviews the previous results before allowing the next test.

It's all good to do, but it does make development frustratingly slow sometimes. Especially when people are actively dying waiting for the new drugs.

Hopefully they'll actually use an active dock with cooling this time rather than the simple stand that comes with the Switch 1.

No but it does need enough performance to be capable of running games in low quality modes. The Switch is so anemic that many big budget games are simply not even trying anymore as performant running can't be achieved without complete rewrites of engine code. So a better Switch that is at least a low spec gaming computer will enable more big games to many the effort of trying to support it.

Probably no where. They likely just left Twitter and carried on with whatever else they were doing.

Yes but the support is very recent and hasn't been fully accepted yet. Therefore, I can't use it in enterprise. I have to wait for full adoption.

There are some cases where this is a serious issue that can't be solved through pure CSS. Once container units are finally approved though, that will solve quite a few problematic layout issues in CSS.

The fact that you're doubling down on your ignorance is quite problematic. Typescript is not an enterprise system that forms arcane JS. It's literally JS with a slight adjustment that allows you to say "also this is this type". You write JS the entire time and can "disable" the typescript at any location you need to not be typed.

I'm amazed to hear people actually used word pad. It's such a horrible editor with extremely poor file type support.

There's no political or social will for mass community measures. It would take a 1000 percent uptick in deadliness before we could even begin discussing sweeping shutdowns and masking. Like it or not, reality is that we can only do what we can on a personal level.

Yeah, the could release the best game ever made and I'd still avoid it.

How wonderful that it peaked at 420.
