Hey Mike, I'm a huge fan of D3. As I work on multiple platforms not just those involving web tech and javascript, I've often wondered if it would be better to put a lot of work into taking a more cross language, cross rendering sy

I think the real insight from this type of an approach and from the very popular single state atom architecture is that just having all state in one object makes serialization trivial. Many projects end up doing crazy things like solving se

I like your point about having designers a the particular platforms UI tool/system. It's sad though that they can't learn a platform agnostic tool so that skills are more shared and portable across platforms. So I like this k

I'm liking their moves towards the option to pay to get rid of ads. Like with Youtube Red and I believe there is this option for Google Ads too, though I doubt in practice this means they track anything less about you. It's a dang

The problem is Chromecast requires the phone to have a Chromecast SDK using app on it anyway. Additionally you couldn't communicate without having a wifi connection, at least without proxying over the internet which is slow. The closes

Yeah, I think you really have to design your set of recognized gestures to make them have a low chance of ambiguity. Hmmm, and yeah you could add templates that are variants of an intended output. To improve the chance of matching important

Hey zik, has anyone tried getting it running through emscripten? It would be very cool to have interactive C purely client side in browser. Could make some cool c based jsbin like hosting websites from that.
