Very interesting, I would definitely like to play with this later. I wonder how long it runs for before something significant occurs?

We only have a few privileged tasks (scheduler, hardware, visible app). We ask that apps finish their processing within a certain time, otherwise we kill them [1]. Ideally we would have the ability to pause and restore them at will. Our sys

We're still working out the exact process, but apps return a dictionary when they are put to 'sleep' to allow them to return to a previous state. The app state is stored in RAM currently, but could also be saved to disk. They

This is exactly what we are investigating, to record audio locally (minimal processing) and process it off-device. I think it's definitely possible.

I just now checked out my theory of switching to a keto diet - this appears to be terrible advice. There appears to be some initial idea of using keto to control cancer [1]. My working theory is that cancer is a high-replication cell, and t

I think it should at least warn that it is not used by default, or recognise that unused labels within switch statements are likely to be a mistake. Anyway, the point was, my tired eyes did not easily grep the spelling mistake, hence the pr

Honestly, it's just about doing what is easier at the time. Re-compiling an application in debug can be a pain sometimes, or getting back to a specific state within the application to inspect what is going on. Some have mentioned about

In this case it makes a lot of sense to open-source the product, at least the non-proprietary parts. It would be extremely cool to provide a build process, a framework and drivers for each actuator/sensor. From there these devices coul

Good point. There was a technology shift in portability and cost which meant each individual got a personal computer. They went from the common areas to personal spaces like bedrooms. Maybe a lot of issue could be resolved by just having a
