I really like it. In principle it could be like a window kept open "into the world" while working. Given the need to interact with your site to change scenes, and that I was trying to work in another window, the constant pausing t

Given the divide you describe under BSDs, I just did a search for "nix on bsd". There doesn't seem to be very much of a nix/bsd story out there, based on my search. In principle it sounds like an interesting combination.

I'll have to look into rules for low power FM. Could you broadcast midi music with "stenographic" data hidden in variations, and not run into anti-encryption rules? Or just plain modem-like streams at low RF power? FM might g

I'm impressed by the lack of dependencies and single-file download. One of my use-cases is for offline use, and not via a web app installation -- only assets in an ordinary filesystem directory. Mega-components in single js files are

Tangent, but in the seasonal storage context. Apparently, according to a reported simulation, if you (1) take a ca 15m x 15m house thermally in contact with the ground, (2) insulate the ground outside to a radius of ca 40m, and (3) heat the

If you don't mind a question (and there is not much detail on the home page for OP), does this imply frame-based or sliding-window-based processing? If so is that as short as a byte or two and does not introduce much delay (i.e. only a
