Whoa, I had to look up the word "polyfill", since I had never seen in in this context before. Extra confusing since the topic was close to the filling of polygons (a common operation in vector graphics rendering). Turns out the word was coined by Remy Sharp, and means "replicate an API using JavaScript (or Flash or whatever) if the browser doesn’t have it natively" (quote from http://remysharp.com/2010/10/08/what-is-a-polyfill/ http://remysharp.com/2010/10/08/what-is-a-polyfill/). Interesting, but depressing to be so "out of touch". Cue shouting about lawn, et cetera.
