But it is still being shoe horned in Scala, just have a look at the class files it produces. Jack will almost certainly get a native traits-like feature as part of the lambdas work. The idea is that lambdas are pointless unless they are used by the standard libraries, especially collection APIs, but if the new method...

The resulting class files are just an implementation artifact and not changing the fact that traits work exactly like they should in Scala and are supported in the whole language.

Not entirely sure. My guess is that at the parsing stage of the compiler, how's it supposed to know that foo even takes template args. Maybe foo returns a function and you call that?

It might perform better than HTML5 (for now), but as a whole it sucks; it feels like an intruder.

I wonder why Assembly tutorials for beginners use x86 instead of the much saner MIPS Assembly. Combine that with the excellent [MARS Simulator](http://courses.missouristate.edu/KenVollmar/MARS/) and you have a nice and easy way to start understanding Assembly. After that, you can move to x86 if you still care to.

It isn't just battery life, though that is important, it is the WinRT API not supporting any COM component that needs IDispatch. Even if they wanted to support plugins they can't do it with this implementation. They need to either redesign WinRT or reimplement the plugin architecture from scratch.

The writers of the constitution had installed 14+optional 14 (up to 28 year) copyrights, and 20 years for patents. So if they had encoded the limited time into the constitution, this is probably around the amount of time that they would use. That may be long, but copyrights are currently an order of magnitude longer....

The changes themselves are band-aids; they don't fix the root problem because the government won't consider "no patents" as a solution. Eliminating the whole system is the only solution to all the problems it causes.

I believe Squeryl (A Scala ORM) has made that claim. In fact there is no way to write a raw SQL query in Squeryl as far as I know. My information may be out of date, but this was one of the big turn-offs to me about an otherwise good looking library when I went shopping for database persistence in Scala for a project.

Exact, in Europe the patent does not hold, because no software patent does. The copyright does hold, obviously, but reverse-engineering and re-implementing in a "white-box" fashion is perfectly legal, and the resultant work can be used within the terms of its own license.

Exactly. What does multiple inheritance buy you that cannot be solved in interfaces or components? (In the component model you make an object out of parts, each of which is attached to a containing object, like a computer game character that is made out of an ai, a physics object, and a graphics object).
