So following your argument you could say that it's actually Objective-C? You could put a .mm on there and it would still execute.

Parent wins the internet. Time to pack up and go home.

I was a local hire at TATA (TCS) doing software work at Apple... Treated me well enough, however I quickly came to realize there was little chance for advancement / promotion in that track. So I found another job, where the bias was going more in my favor. The racial preference at TCS in the US would be more "awful" if it wasn't just a small coin balancing a big stack of the opposite bias elsewhere in the industry.

I prefer delivery by crossbow bolt.

It would also leave the homeowner in a somewhat laughable situation... They could either toe the line and say that the earthquake is "natural" therefore getting the insurance (hush) money, or try and convince the state that it was man-made, losing their house if victorious, and hopefully changing policy enough that more earthquakes won't happen.

Shame is, this only seems like a conundrum to the type of people who place the well being of society over their own momentary gains.

Cut off one head and two will emerge!

Finally! A tech savvy individual on Slashdot who understands the state of the industry and is able to express a knowledgeable opinion. Everyone else commenting on this whole "Apple Watch" thing seems to be too heavily biased by the having used an Apple product in the last 2 decades. It's refreshing to get an unbiased opinion.

OP is me ^^^ forgot to login.

Actually... California produces more renewable energy than Portugal. It's just uses more too :)

Wind Power:

Portugal - 3,937 MW

California - 5,829 MW

Solar:

Portugal - Aprox 75 MW

California - 5576 MW

That's roughly 75 X the solar output of Portugal. Sounds like what we need to do in CA is to stop being so power hungry..

TL;DR: If you need to constantly monitor your heart rate it can be useful as any heart rate "Medical" device short of EKG.

I'm getting one for my Dad. He currently has a fluttering heart valve, which makes his heart less effective, and causes his heart rate to nearly double to attain the same level of blood oxygen. His resting heart rate is between 100-130 bpm, and that's not good for longevity. While the doctors try and sort out what surgery to try next, he's been told to try and keep his heart rate low using medication. However, if it gets too low, he gets light headed, and can't go up stairs, so they are experimenting with a good value that keeps his heart rate in a specific range.

I'll be writing him an app that lets him know when to take medication to slow his heart rate.

Yes, it's not medically sound, and I wouldn't use it for someone who might sue... but it's better than the "Medical" apparatus and procedure we have been given.

You lost me at Nazis.
