I completely believe him. Even though XML is really verbose I saw quite a few folks adding these types of things in XML comments. So this wouldn't surprise me one bit. Would be interesting to see some real-world examples though.

That looks pretty neat! I'm always a little wary about the keyboard scratching the screen but overall it's nifty. I just hope it becomes a real product after the kickstarter stuff is over.

The OP claims it's real. After dealing with some SOAP systems I would entirely believe this is possible.

Interesting. I never thought of that. It seems almost silly that you're bringing insecure content over a secure channel like that but then again it is only images.

They use quite a bit of HTML 5 so they should be able to do this client-side I would imagine. But I dunno.

I'm pretty surprised Google didn't have the client download the images instead. Wouldn't that be a better solution or am I missing something here? Pretty interesting though and if this becomes a big enough story you can bet Google will be c

You're cherry picking statements to make this bill sound like something positive. I'd suggest just doing a Google search though; it's been debated to death.

When you're able to take Dart and reliably, run it on both the server and the web client then it may be interesting. Right now I don't see a good use case for it right now. For one, debugging client-side code is going to be annoying especia

Not sure what the point here is; this is all relative. Sure, .14MB isn't a big deal but if you're uploading 2.14TB of data, I need to know about that .14.

I would have expected that cost to be covered by those seeking to establish a standard rather than the people who want to implement it. Does that mean submitters and downloaders pay or just downloaders?

I think you mean charge back as the payment has already occurred.

This was a really stupid article. Basically, by the use of the word "lazy" the author meant "not lazy" in certain areas and by "dumb" the author meant "not an asshole". That was a 5 minutes of my life I won't ever reclaim...

Title of post: Gmail Down Opened up the article: :Less than 2% of gmail users can't access gmail. Hype much? Though email is one of those things that you never want to go down. I couldn't give two shits if any website goes down for a little

I've tried it along with virtually all of the other chat apps and none seem to work very well at all with Google Talk. I am constantly disconnected and never get any push notifications which makes it entirely useless. I wish there was somet

I agree with Crockford.

GMail isn't just a mail client though; it's a web server and a client with push email, calendar syncing, etc; it's basically a simpler version of Exchange. Are there any good alternatives? Are their any alternatives at all?

Data representation is great in JSON. Actual layout information? Well it's doable but it's not as easy to see. This is why HTML is NOT XML and also why you wouldn't want to convert HTML to JSON. So I'm not really sure what your point is. Ar

>For example, there's a problem with coupling between JSON and application data structures in that they must be the same basic shape. So to give your JSON format the ideal shape for consumers, you need to translate into a layer of objec

What do you mean by "built in"? I don't see how or why an ID couldn't be used in the same manner; the implementation is just a little different because they store data differently. XML is only a series of nodes and attributes. There isn't r

There are things that seem "natural" when using XML? News to me :)

by Yarnage 14y ago
I don't really understand your point here. Those JSON data dumps don't make any sense...and wouldn't make sense as XML either. Why wouldn't you enforce a schema? I've never worked on a system that didn't do validation and schema enforcement

This "article" is odd. I've worked with multiple systems and I don't see a reason why one data model can't be bound to XML and JSON without being awkward. It's so incredibly EASY to output and input with both, why not? Personally I prefer J

I guess I'm trying to figure out if they're shipping them immediately or not. It almost sounded like they were. I'll skim over the page some more. EDIT: Nevermind. I figured it out. Reading...

This looks really cool but I'm so very confused about it being a kickstarter. Is this basically operating as a store front or are you still in the fund raising stage?

People. It's missing people.

That is my understanding as well. The person at our local post office recommended putting the township but wasn't aware of exactly why. My suspicion is that it doesn't matter one bit but I don't know anything about the USPS system.

I'm actually impressed it came back with my correct information. On major websites including Target.com, they do not see my zip code as valid even though it's close to a decade old. Sure, it's knew in the grand scheme of things but that's c

Manufacturers about 6+ years ago used to allow this. Almost every Windows Mobile phone I had had the ability to do this with a custom application. I would suspect the manufacturer wouldn't be liable if you put a disclaimer on it but IANAL.
