Yes, i am familiar with libraries, but since i will have physical access to all the user's computers (it's an app for a school's teachers) i though i might as well just support the newer browsers and don't support older ones at all. And i a

The only difference, that i was able to make out, is that it disables the bar. But it does say "Will show the new downloads UI as it is implemented." as you point out, so it may still be a work in progress, although i have been seeing it fo

I have been using input type date a lot recently. My app is chrome only and has to serve not very tech oriented people. And telling them to add date in a specific format is a huge pain in the ass. So input type date and even color to some e

I don't claim to be a "hacker" but would just like to say that there are smart people here. They are not just as vocal as these people who, as others have said in this thread, are good at selling themselves to the media.

What will they show in the live feed? It makes me sad we can't have a (near) live feed from the delivery case or even the sky crane. Except for the understandable 19 (or so?) minutes or lag due to speed of light, the bandwidth is not nearly

Most with desktop have a broadband and the ones with laptops have a 3g USB dongle. The tarrifs and limits on dongle are even more ridiculous. Some have 300 mb limit. Who the fuck would use 300mb per month on a 21 mbps connection? (HSPA+ has

That wont be a problem. No one is stupid enough to block these sites. What worries me more is that they may put a limit on data that can be downloaded from these sites per user. (throttling) This is far more dangerous since this does not gi

Can any one explain what they mean by simulate? Like to what depth? Do they define different types of cells and their functions and then let them work? Or molecules, atoms? particles?? I strongly believe a "proper" simulation is impossible

I remember reading about some twitter dev who apparently hated semicolons and went far and beyond to avoid putting semicolons. He was a bootstrap dev i IIRC. I tried googling but couldn't find anything again. maybe this is related?
