Maybe it's just me, but from time to time I try latest Servo build and it never survives more than few minutes of usage before crashing. Last time I did it was 3 days ago, I opened a website and it crashed with "RefCell already bo

I think Servo's killer application would be a mobile-first browser for postmarketOS/Mobian/other mobile Linux distros. It's a weird vacuum because Firefox has its Android port, but when you run Firefox on small linux (to

I was wondering if one could build an alternative Electron with Duktape and Netsurf's rendering engine and what the memory footprint would be? Most Electron apps don't even use animations and they could be "backported" t

This reminds me of Elchemy ( https://github.com/wende/elchemy ) which uses the Elm compiler to output "readable" Elixir. I wonder if anyone has played with both and can compare them?

What's even worse is that the install script at https://www.opscode.com/chef/install.sh is also unavailable, which is the default way of getting chef installed onto newly provisioned server.

Does Google actually allow you to use the tiles, as long as you credit them? Could I do something similar in a commercial app?

The author of the article seem to think that a good iOS icon is a one that uses a perspective trick to produce a faux 3d effect. I'm not sure these are very usable when sized down to 57x57 pixels which is default iPhone icon size (double th

For now, it will show only the first page. Swiping between Fireworks pages is something we have on our roadmap.

Red Laser is doing something similar, and being on the other side (we were developing an app that needed to use barcode scanning) I strongly disliked the idea that I have to share my sales data with them. There are also cases where agencies

This behaviour is implemented with few lines of code in the sample app, but we should probably make this the default behaviour in the framework itself with an option to override it.

Good point. I haven't really thought about this, but one problem that I see with distributing source code is avoiding that it appears on piratebay after a while, on the other hand I can understand that it's a must for some developers. Could

I'm not sure Mark is the smarter one in this one. If the thief has been able to auto log-in as him and fill his browser history, this probably means that he can also read Mark's history and the rest of his home directory is lying there unen

Off topic, but it always surprises me how someone with all this knowledge can ..well, use Comic Sans for the presentation. While I understand that it's about games and that Comic Sans is supposed to be perceived as a "fun" font, this is rea

I know this fits probably better into separate tool, but one thing I still miss about TortoiseSVN are the statistics. Although these were very basic, still it was fun to see from time to time how long the project has been going on, how many

I don't know if they allow that, but I was thinking of getting one of the advertised-as-unlimited-storage dreamhost account and using rsync to do my backups. Anyone using this already?
