Techniques are described herein that are capable of dynamically re-allocating computing resources while maintaining network connection(s). Applications of users are run in a computing unit. Computing resources are allocated among the applications based at least in part on dynamic demands of the applications for the computing resources and resource limits associated with the respective customers. In a first example, the computing resources are dynamically re-allocated among the applications, as a result of changing the resource limit of at least one customer, while maintaining at least one network connection between a client device of each customer and at least one respective application. In a second example, the computing resources are dynamically re-allocated among the applications, as a result of changing the resource limit of at least one customer, while maintaining at least one network connection between an interface and a client device of each customer.

A chin cup has a hard outer cup and a soft inner cup that may be removable from the outer cup. The inner cup has a peripheral edge extending beyond the edges of the outer cup. Strap guides that allow a strap to slide through. A one size fits all design includes a central indentation that extends upward toward a top central portion of the cups as well as a central narrowing longitudinally of the cups. Aligned vent holes between the cups let the user's chin breathe. The cups have an arcuate longitudinal arch shape. The chin cup includes a boss and hole design that has mushroom caps that prevents the separation of the cups when not in use, the soft inner cup imbedded in the hard outer cup.

Improved compilers recognize interception declarations in source code, and emit code that replaces invocations of specified artifacts with invocations of specified interceptors instead. Source generators proactively modify program behavior in arbitrary desired ways without introducing hidden security violations and without requiring edits by the program's developers. Interception declarations are visible in source code and development tools. In some cases, different invocations of a particular method at respective locations are intercepted by different replacement methods. Replacement methods have identical signatures, or are otherwise compatible. Some interceptors specify optional parameters. Method calls, field accesses, and property calls may be intercepted. Work to modify program behavior is moved in the program lifecycle from runtime to compile time, thus improving runtime performance and eliminating JIT compilation security risks.
