It's natively compiled, just not statically compiled.
If compiles optimised versions of your functions as needed. So you can define a function that works on any supported numeric type, and when you call it with doubles, it will compile and cache a version of the code optimised specifically for doubles.
As a result, it is very fast for numeric code, without having to create separate function definitions for each supported type.
Twitter have multiple APIs. The Gnip API is probably what's meant here; it's a paid API that provides a filtered feed of the entire stream of tweets.
The regular Twitter REST API is more limited, but it's available to anyone with a working Twitter account, so it's basically impossible for Twitter to block access by technical means.
Suppose you want to go to a concert, in person, rather than watching it in your personal holodeck or whatever. There are a limited number of seats. Who gets those seats? That's easy: tickets cost money.
That exact situation is a major plot thread in Iain M Banks' Look to Windward. Banks' "Culture" is a galactic post-scarcity civilisation (and far more technologically advanced than the Federation in Star Trek), but that doesn't mean that they don't need money.
Maybe we need to describe a model where the use of assets changes from the trade for other assets, to their use as resources for creating more assets. Once we describe a provable or falsifiable process, we can determine if it works better or worse than alternative processes.
If the "regime" to which I refer were purely a democratic state, ideally with many unproductive committees, that's be a good start to a right-wing tale, but it's far more likely to be an oligarchy or dictatorship where a very limited number of people abused their individual liberty to get more power for themselves.
If I remember correctly, that line came before we saw that it was a pretty accurate summary of how things really were in Harry Dresden's world. It annoyed me at the time too.
And also, as death rates from cancer go down, the number of incidents goes up, because you survive to get it again. My father got cancer, was treated, made a full recovery, lived to enjoy his retirement another decade, but eventually died from a different type of cancer.
Did any of the visionary Sci-Fi authors of the 20th century see this coming?
Isaac Asimov wrote a short story - 2430 A.D. - wherein all the problems of hunger and war and disease and poverty had been solved, and as a result the world population was 15 trillion. Quietly horrifying.

You have just been banned from Twitter.
No, it doesn't use a template library. Or in a sense, all your code is templates.

i sleep like a baby.
That is, I wake up every couple of hours screaming.

Let's play Spot the Crazy Person!
He's an anarchist. Which these days means an emo kid with internet access.
We used a rocket crane to land a nuclear-powered robot the size of a Buick on the surface of Mars.
Nonsense.
What you're opposed to is government corruption. Blaming the "free market" is dishonest and, frankly, idiotic.
So what you're complaining about is government intervention, not capitalism.
Which makes you a conservative, or maybe a libertarian.
Welcome!

So... Capitalism?
If it were capitalism, government would be largely irrelevant. If the government has no power, corruption doesn't matter.
If it's the government's fault, you're looking at something closer to socialism than capitalism.
Capitalism is about self-interest. That's why it works - it expects people to act for themselves.

So, communism.
The story is about military service, but the book clearly states that any public service counts.
Look for books that win both. Blackout/All Clear by Connie Willis (2011 Hugo & Nebula) is excellent. Looooong, but worth it.

Also, that character lives in a world where science is often wrong and in denial of the evidence.
That was something of a theme in the early books, less so after Murphy left the Chicago PD.
No, the universe where the simulation is running just needs to be larger than ours.

It would make them 21.6 times as careful. Which is nearly twice, from the other direction.
Yes. It's now easy to scale to a million or more IOPS on a single server. That makes the CPU the bottleneck again.
C is ideal if you value raw performance over getting the job done.
Wut?
If they simply put more storage in the damn thing, app sizes would stop being a problem.
