It renders most major websites fine, it's similar to WebKit with a few rendering quirks. Here are a few screenshots: - https://ultralig.ht/screen1.png - https://ultralig.ht/screen2.png - https:/&

There's actually a great write-up on how Herbie was used in the real-world to fix and improve math.js: https://pavpanchekha.com/blog/casio-mathjs.html I've personally used it for improving some distance-field

The OP copied only half my tweet, full title should be "...to minimize floating-point precision errors". This tool is specifically for improving the numerical accuracy of equations when translated into floating-point code-- "

Hey Brad, sorry Awesomium didn't meet your needs and that you eventually found something that worked. PollAnywhere looks pretty awesome now, grats! Sad to see you felt I had zero empathy to your plight, a full refund was approved just

Thanks for this, we'll work harder to have more upfront, prompt responses in the forum. Admittedly, the biggest issue has been a complete lack of enough developers to handle support during heavy development phases. PS. for anyone readi

I agree, we done f*cked up on the support side of Awesomium and most of the blame rests with me (we're understaffed, underfunded, and _extremely_ ambitious). Sorry! For what it's worth, we have made huge progress on R&D these

You're reading my mind here. (4 AM here so please excuse any ill-formed logic) Excellent points regarding the exceptional breadth of requirements necessary to effect change. I don't think this precludes my earlier belief concernin

Yes exactly. Though I call into question whether or not that responsibility (to coordinate action towards the advancement of human civilization) should be left solely with our heroes. I believe this narrative will never truly change until e

Yes indeed, I believe every man, woman, and child born on this planet has a responsibility to participate in its exploration and advancement. I actually see plenty of ambition in the valley and elsewhere— ambition to be the next billion-dol

I agree some progress has occurred since 1970, but the pace of totally new ideas has slowed considerably. We're in the Age of Moderate Improvement. I have often wondered what made the West so great during its golden age of innovation (

Thanks for the link, their whitepaper [1] is pretty interesting (they've put a lot of thought into the "network of trust" optimization I mention above). Seems they use the bitcoin block chain heavily as the basis for trust an

I wrote earlier that information must be transmitted with a "paper-trail" for it to be independently verifiable by every node. The bitcoin block chain is essentially a single, massive "paper-trail" that could potentially

Has a nice UI (albeit cloned from Photoshop). Save/Export doesn't seem to work on my machine (Chrome 37, Mac OSX). Would be nice to see some kind of SVG export instead of raster formats.

When I request a ride, the _system_ gives me... To explain what you're missing, I have to talk about how decentralized networks are actually implemented. Think of the "system" as a large crowd of people in a room. On

As much as I love the idea of true peer-to-peer decentralized marketplace, it's a pipe-dream and I'll explain why. - Every node is potentially untrustworthy therefore additional verification must be performed on the results of any

There's actually a few other alternatives if you want to interop with straight-up C++ interfaces: 1. Use SWIG [1] to generate the C-API from the C++ headers (you are limited to a subset of C++: no STL, no templates, all interfaces must

Two words: Universal Identity. That's the killer use-case that everyone is missing. The Apple Watch has an NFC-chip, internet connection, and an API-- this is going to happen. (They've already announced a partnership with W Hotels

I might be able to give some insight, I helped found the RO emulation community back in 2003. Along with AppleGirl, I (AjS15822) made some of the first English NPC scripts used in all Athena servers, participated in YARE, contributed code t
