Very cool feature I wasn't aware of because I'm not a true Chime Head.

Sound advice otherwise, but you could have left this part out of the comment :D

For most apps just use SSE and the built-in code for making HTTP requests (Fetch) instead of hacking up your own client side JS to make requests over a WebSocket. The latency is the same because modern browsers multiplex HTTP requests over a single TCP connection that is left open.

Maybe if you are making many client requests per second there is an advantage to not sending full headers/cookies/etc... on each request but not if you're sending requests in response to user clicks/touches.

Any sufficiently complicated SPA contains an ad hoc, informally-specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of half of Fetch.

I'm guessing the watches sold poorly and the chip packages are still large compared to a watch movement, so no new designs.

I am curious as to why not Lua or JavaScript? Lua is what Roblox uses and JS needs no introducton.

IMHO there are a bunch of reasons

* Scala 3 was a Python 3-esque disruptive event

* Perception as an overly-complex kitchen-sink inclusive language

* Kotlin took up the "better Java" mantle

* Rust became attractive to devs not committed to the JVM

* Go became less sucky

* SBT is disliked and Metals was buggy and unstable (and still slow)

* Suffers from the "we won't be able to find devs" problem where Kotlin, Rust and Go don't

* A bunch of community drama drove some devs away to Rust

I say this as someone using Scala 3 with ZIO effects system and Mill build tool and thinks it is fantastic.

I'm not saying brains are the only way to produce consciousness, just that the evidence shows that they are the way animals do here on Earth.

It is extremely unlikely that there is something else involved.

> There is certainly much of physics remaining to be discovered, but in the specific regime covering the particles and forces that make up human beings and their environments, we have good reason to think that all of the ingredients and their dynamics are understood to extremely high precision (Carroll 2021a). Modern physics, in other words, provides evidence for what philosophers call “causal closure of the physical”: physical events have purely physical causes (Loewer 1995, Papineau 1995), at least in the regime relevant to human life. Without dramatically upending our understanding of quantum field theory, there is no room for any new influences that could bear on the problem of consciousness.

I look forward to more precise definitions.
