This is what I always go back to. We have so many smart engineers working on ways to interpret JS to interact with native components and try to tighten that loop to make it faster. Why is there not a large movement to just make UI developme

I mean, journalists could also see this if they employed people with disabilities that required them to use such accessibility features. Considering it took an outage to show them I'm guessing few to zero companies do.

I used to think this way. Worked at 3 different start-ups, actually. I lost a lot of my good years and what's worse when you're working so much is you can't even take care of yourself very well. Plus any type of "payout&

The few folks I knew who worked at Tesla told me it's basically 60 hours a week at a minimum. It's not uncommon to find someone sleeping in the office or folks going out to dinner and coming right back to work. The last person I t

Hmm. When I need to find a specific JS library I do a search and there are a good 20+ of them all with different dependencies, levels of support, different past issues, etc. It's so difficult to pick a good one. I mean, you can just _p

1. It's great PR. Ive is very well known and liked outside of Apple (and probably inside, depending on who you worked with if we're to believe the article is correct). You're not wrong, though. They should have included more

The common usage of the word "free" is something like "without cost" (yours doesn't work and I actually couldn't find a definition that explicitly says "money"). Placing ads in an app has various cost

I'm not sure I follow. You buy your games like you would with any console. It's just the console is "in the cloud" and you only pay the monthly subscription if you want the higher quality stream and the occasional free g

Based on some rough, early estimates the input lag with Stadia is incredibly impressive. I originally thought it would never work for many types of games like you say but now I'm reserving judgement. It's not impossible at least.

I don't think so. Google has announced it would be coming to more phones and devices in the future and they consistently say "tablets" instead of ChromeOS tablets. It's a service, it would be silly to ignore literally a

You seem to have not really read my comment, made some assumptions and created some straw-men. I'm not entirely sure why. As I mentioned before I switched entirely to Firefox about a year ago. I only switched back fairly recently (Fire

Ugh. Look, I used to use Chrome as my primary browser but I switched to Firefox like a year ago. I tried really, really hard to stay with Firefox. But it just doesn't work as well as Chrome. I get that it's not entirely Firefox&#x

Thank you. These are fair points. When attempting to talk to various folks years ago the WHATWG always made it easier for me but I see your point.

Yup. They even link to a sponsored article as an authoritative source regarding eating take out. This article is a mess.

Yeah, performance is a hard issue especially with well established applications. Experimentation is fun. Good luck, wish I could help you more :)

I mean, I get that. But if you're a business or even an individual who was an interest in how the internet is being shaped you have to either pay a ton of money or somehow get them to invite you. WHATWG seems to have found a way to man

The worst part is, it doesn't seem like they'll be able to. I'm curious what happens if they ultimate need additional / different sensors to make it happen. Do they replace those parts for free?

It's probably an unpopular opinion but I'm all for progress that may eventually lead to W3C's complete irrelevance. I've talked with folks at the WHATWG before, _Anyone_ can provide input and work with them. With the W3C

Reddit doesn't actually store the history of your edits, only that you edited it (which is why, when you scrub reddit history, people recommend editing it because then your posting is gone except for say a backup). Facebook, however, a

I guess whoever buys up that aspect of Tesla when the shareholders sell it to pay them and the company's debts off. If someone does it I would imagine they would charge for it. Considering Tesla is considered a luxury brand there would
