WebGL strikes me as a much more likely and more open HTML5/Native hybridized future. I don't doubt there will be other hybrid technologies but I think WebGL is the first one that's here to stay. To clarify: I mean open as in open web here;

Well they did say that they were working on fixing the speed of concurrent requests for rails on their platform. While that is vague it would point to them actively working on a solution. Regardless, this is a problem of web applications at

To Stratasys $10k is probably already the Honda Civic of 3D printers. To go with an entirely different analogy, Stratasys is the old, lumbering baron of 3d printing. Conversely, RepRap, Makerbot, Ultimaker, MakerGear, Type A and now Panda R

The Prusa Mendel sells for $799 on Makergear and can print at 1/10 the layer height of a Replicator 2. Thats the same price as the Pandabot (well, give or take $1), the advantage of the Pandabot is that it auto-calibrates and is excessivel

Exactly, this comment should really be higher up. Liav, the designer of the PandaBot, was one of the first people in Canada to build a RepRap Darwin. The year Panda Robotics took to develop the Pandabot is the result of many years of prior

Basic Stamps are also simple to program however if you have the choice I would recommend the Arduino. The difference being that with an Arduino you are learning in the C programming language from day one which is a very useful and powerful

What about sensible defaults? If the libraries you use are designed with reasonable defaults that have already anticipated your needs there should not be any need for anything but the most basic syntactic autocomplete functionality (closing

This doesn't seem to do justice to ruby. What about the huge string manipulation, array and hash standard libraries baked in to ruby that js simply doesn't have? Taking into account a modern stack, a fairer comparison is Ruby + ActiveSuppor
