Of course it's vague since there is no absolute correct time unit tests should run. What I'm describing is a "smell" test--that unit tests should take up some noticeable percentage of your compilation (or even checkout) time. Except for the smallest of projects, unit tests should take long enough for you to remove your hands from the keyboard.
Put another way; from my observation, most unit tests aren't comprehensive enough. Even saying that you have line coverage is a piss poor way to ensure sufficient testing. Have you covered the full logic of the object being tested?
(I ran into the last point this past week. The functions in question had full line coverage. Out of habit, I added some nonsense data to the tests. The newer function passed. The existing function, which I didn't write, faulted. This behavior wasn't documented.)

Sounds like they take up [human] measurable time.

Introducing small, but noticeable changes, can make the alerts more useful and harder to ignore. Because everyone appreciates stuff popping up and dancing on their screens

Until the user gets used to them.
OTOH, I haven't seen a security alert in so long, I honestly have no idea what one would look like.

Don't know since I always turned it off, but if I hadn't, I probably would have eventually tuned it out.

Although ransomware is the favorite attack method used against business, ad fraud malware is growing fast and poses a substantial threat to both consumers and businesses. 400 variants of ransomware? Did the Pokemon designers get involved?

For the past couple of weeks I've been working on an IL (Intermediate Language) Viewer for Visual Studio Code. Because sometimes ildasm is just too far away
Besides, I can never seem to type that without an error.

Does ildasm run on a Mac? I think what he's saying is that since it works in VS Code, it'll also run on any platform.

Ah, very true. Also, they seem to have pulled it out of the main .NET install? I can't seem to find it anymore. Glad he wrote this anyway.

I think it's available in the Windows SDK now. At least it's in the WinSDK folders on my machine.

Ah, there it is, thank you.
Still, it seems to be such a waste to have to install all that for ildasm. One may as well just install dotPeek, or this.

Google today announced that the code for Chrome for iOS is now part of its Chromium open source project. Does that mean they're cancelling it soon?

If you were about to start playing a game of online poker, you might want to think again. Humankind has just been beaten at yet another game, this time Heads-Up No-Limit Texas Hold'em poker. This is a milestone moment for artificial intelligence (AI). At least we're still masters of "Go Fish"

This helps demonstrate how *unlikely* it is that there are other intelligent civilizations out there in the galaxy.
Life is known to have existed for about 3 billion years on Earth, but only in the last few million did it become truly intelligent. And then only by chance.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

When considering the estimated number of galaxies and Earth-like planets within those galaxies I'd rather take the bet there's an intelligent civilization out there somewhere. More or less intelligent than humans I can't say. Within our galaxy alone it's somewhere in the range of 1-40 billion planets depending on if you count red dwarf stars.
These[^] links[^] give some data and estimated numbers.
