Abstract: A novel and useful system and method of time traveling source code debugging including several advanced capabilities that significantly improve the source code debugging process. Upon hitting a breakpoint or opening a dump file, the debugger travels to the future which can be altered by a user by modifying code on the fly (live coding) and receiving immediate feedback to validate bug fixes. Visual annotations including values of variables and expressions are provided as a heads up display effectively flattening time and space. A pivoting capability allows a user to switch the execution context of the code at any time. Point in time links that store the state of the debugging session can be created and activated. An asynchronous collaboration and messaging system enables multiple participants to share a debugging session. An optional redaction capability is also provided for obscuring or replacing sensitive private information.

Abstract: A mirror for an ophthalmic laser treatment device that is movable on an axis from a position in a treatment laser beam path to a position out of the treatment laser beam path. The mirror reflects light from a light source into the eye of a patient. The mirror is biased towards a position in the path and is moved out of the path by an actuator just long enough for the laser treatment to be applied and without noticeable interruption to viewing by a user.

Abstract: A method is described for the diagnostic determination of the risk caused by an altered oxidative balance, comprising the photometric measurement of total cholesterol, hydroperoxides, and antioxidant capacity, on the basis of which the protective index, the oxidative index and the risk index caused by an altered oxidative balance (or ‘OBRI’) are calculated. This latter index has proved to be particularly dependable and reliable in determining the status of the oxidative balance in relation to cholesterol levels, being highly predictive of cardiovascular risk.

Abstract: The systems, devices, articles, and methods generally relate to sampling from an available probability distribution. The samples maybe used to create a desirable probability distribution, for instance for use in computing values used in computational techniques including: Importance Sampling and Markov chain Monte Carlo systems. An analog processor may operate as a sample generator, for example by: programming the analog processor with a configuration of the number of programmable parameters for the analog processor, which corresponds to a probability distribution over qubits of the analog processor, evolving the analog processor with a fast ramp operation, and reading out states for the qubits. The state for the qubits may be post processes and/or used to calculate importance weights.
