"qwe123QWE!@#" is only nice until you look at the keyboard. First three qwerty letters. First three keys just above them. Then the same shifted.

Gavin isn't the founder. He's the current maintainer of the open source software. The founder was Satoshi Nakamoto who is apparently no longer involved with the project.

For the curious I put the libevent ATS wrapper and the ATS version of the download.c program mentioned at the end of the article in github: https://github.com/doublec/ats-libevent

Wasn't functional programming with a Mozart/OZ Engine basically tried with AliceML: http://www.ps.uni-saarland.de/alice/ I'm not sure syntax is the main reason for slow uptake of Mozart. In fact the syntax can offer some advantages. See t

By 'native' they mean built for Windows without any cross-platform framework getting in the way.

A function has an effect. It can be annotated as 'impure' or 'unsafe'. Any function that is not annotated in that way is considered pure. Pure functions that return a boolean value can be used in the typestate system (ie. typestate calls mu

I consider ATS [1] a systems language and it can be used at the write-a-kernel level. It can be used without a garbage collector using linear types to ensure memory is deallocated. One of the contributed examples is some kernel development

Mozilla WebM support was developed 'behind closed doors' and 'dropped' into the open on announcement day. You're right that it's not the norm and the developers are generally opposed to that approach though.

This is the Mozilla bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=455165 I know you know this, but for everyone else, Firefox doesn't play chained ogg files. Icecast uses this feature. If the icecast stream doesn't use chaining then i

I used hg-git to convert Mozilla's mozilla-central mercurial repository to git. It did the job and the resulting working tree checked out from git was the same as the mercurial one. With another tool I tried this wasn't the case. It did use

It's not possible to include extra information like 'shipping address' in a bitcoin transaction, unless that transaction is sent to an IP address (vs sending to a bitcoin address).

Yes you can. There are mining pools that work cooperatively and share the resulting generated block. See http://mining.bitcoin.cz/ and http://www.bitcoin.org/smf/index.php?topic=1458.0 for two different approaches.

bitcoin generation is rate limited such that one 'block' is generated every 10 minutes or so. Generating a block produces 50 coins. As more computation comes on board the difficulty increases to try and keep the average around that.

There's some places listed here where you can use bitcoins: http://www.bitcoin.org/trade There are also other directories and services which you can find in the bitcoin forums.

Coin generation rate is tied to the amount of computing resource in the network. So if you bring a cluster online the difficulty to generate coins increases. EC2 machines are a bit too slow to generate coins in a timely manner. Even a clust

Take a look at iDitDahText: http://iditdahtext.com/iDitDahText.html I used this for input when I had an iPhone and it worked surprisingly well. There's also a similar android input method but not quite as well executed as this one.

I was the original author of the GStreamer patch. It wasn't developed for Fennec - it was originally developed as a backend for the Firefox desktop browser. I wrote about it here when I first developed it: http://www.bluishcoder.co.nz/2008

Use of liboggplay has been dropped in favour of implementing Ogg support directly using just libogg, libvorbis and libtheora. The WebM support is implementing using libvpx (Google's VP8 reference decoder library), libnestegg (a WebM contain

This doesn't affect your point at all, but just so you know, Firefox 4 doesn't use liboggplay nor anything called libwebm.

Safari uses Quicktime for their HTML 5 video. Any Quicktime codec works. For example you can install XiphQT and get Theora support. Opera (on Linux only) supports any GSteamer installed codec IIRC.

If you plan to go commercial while using MP3, don't forget the licensing requirements for streaming MP3 and encoding: http://www.mp3licensing.com/help/#4 (not saying you need a license, just pointing out that you might need to check)

Even if it allowed interpreters the iOS doesn't allow just in time compiling - you can't dynamically generate and execute code. This means V8 can't be used since it doesn't have an interpreter and Trace Monkey would do no tracing.

Nokia are insane. They seem to be intent on destroying any chance of success for their new interesting phones. They announce the N900 and then soon after give a confusing message about MeeGo being the way forward and it not being supported

We went for the "own half-baked media handling layer". liboggplay is no longer used in Firefox trunk btw.

One issue for you might be the license. It's GPL V3.
