I once listed to a talk about a "new" JS (don't know witch one. I guess it never was adopted) It started with explaing all the ugly part of the DOM: Variables that are constant, variable that are more like setters, variables

JavaScript even has "int" and such as reserved keyword. A hole lot of stuff could be fixed using them without breaking any compability.

I feel this will do more for the open web than apples non-support for flash. I think it's fantastic.

I hope so. That's why it's great that it's enabled by default.

I just found out that my laptop has a signicant longer battery life if I use dwb instead of firefox (vimperator). It's a bit crude, but i start to like it.

In other news: If you create a IP connection the other party knows your IP-Address. With WebRTC some parts of this ugly NAT madness are gone. Nothing to see here.

Java-applets in the internet are not used anymore as i explained. And if quite a few poeple use it in their intranets they don't care particular for a 0day. If their intranet is used to deploy these, everything is already lost. Even if

Flash has become subject to retrocomputing. There are plenty of PC Emulators aviable that run Windows XP and flash just fine. You shouldn't connect them to the internet though.

IMHO these (and their failures) are an argument it's indeed somewhat crazy.

So far I know NPR and Spiegel (german tabloid). All these sites work fine without flash if you set your useragent to that of a iDevice. Somebody implemented the switch between html video and flash in a foolish way.

But almost all of these end-users have admins. People that activated java in the browser form them. And these can take care of the updates.

by 1ris 11y ago
Yes, that's way I said "end-user". If you don't know what java is, this does not affect you.

I need java support in the Browser. Have you ever tried to use it? You have to do no less then 10 clicks with lots of warnings and restart the browser in order to activate it, and that's only for one site. And you have to repeat that f

Who says that "Mostly functional programming" sets out to control side effects? How the hell do you get to the conconculsion that's it's no more useful than standard imperative programming? That implies that e.g. first

In Germany there is connection between electrosmog advocates and the tobacco industry in the person of Franz Adlkofer, Mersch-Sundermann and others. Here is a german-language text that deals with that connection: https://www.psir

If you own every house in town I should have that right the insult your mother in one of these. The idea that one has not rights if one is on property one does not own is absurd. In 1939, Justice Owen Josephus Roberts stated that "use

What I think will really start the network effect is the fact that apple requires APPs for the new iOS to work in a IPv6 only environment. That means if Twitter wants to use the latest and greatest features they will have to make their serv

Of course the US or the Imperial System are a way worse, I never meant to imply otherwise. But SI is not particular good and it's not a non-brainer to choose SI. Units should be used because they are elegant to use. Like Angstrom and n

I don't know much about Infero, but this VM alsways seemed odd to me. On the one hand inferno clearly has a plan9 background. In Plan9 IPC is done via files. But in Inferno IPC is sometimes done with files (there is /dev/scre

The metric system is a "worse is better" approach. Why is Kg, a base unit, even if it has prefix? Time in the SI is based on seconds, that relate very odd to the duration of a day. The same horrible base60 system is used for angle

I use Opera Mobile on Android since it is available. The only reason for me is that the zooming and reflow works like I want it to.

And it's as retarded as always. Of course no one should try, because it might not work. Also, as others pointed out, this is the wrong context.

Nothing more? That all you need to know in 99% of the time. Just in case you didn't get the memo: ‘We Kill People Based on Metadata’. http://www.nybooks.com/blogs/nyrblog/2014/may/10/we-kill-peo

No, not at all. It's nice, but not cubism. Cubism can, for example, look like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Juan_Gris_-_Portrait_of_P... A cubism app could 1) detect edges 2) distort the image in a way

Seems to be the same thinking that lead many people to believe that vice can be purged from the internet with a real name policy. If you look at facebook you can see it clearly does not work. For your idea, this sounds very similar to &quot
