WebGL is enabled for ads published through iAd, but disabled for anything else.

I'm not sure if you're intentionally glossing over the "this happens with or without virtualization" point, but I'm glad you're happy with the tools you're using.

I don't imagine it to be an easy problem to solve, but it's good to hear your experience with it. Thanks for chiming in!

This is great dogma for people that control their work environment, but keep in mind that not everyone has that luxury. Hardware upgrade cycles and/or upgrade budgets can prevent people from working on the hardware they'd like, gr

I was referring to Team Explorer which, as of VS2013, doesn't appear to be included out-of-box. Apologies for the confusion. Virtualization is kind of a red herring here, because as mentioned before, this happens on an array of worksta

Interruptions to flow are indeed high on my list of annoying issues. Blocking the UI unexpectedly to poll an external service for an indeterminate amount of time is frustrating and worthy of resolution.

I'm not sure where you pulled SharePoint and SQL Server from, and running the TFS client is a far cry from running the TFS server. That said, my experiences with Visual Studio only serve to underscore the point that my peers would pref

Wouldn't that be nice? I'd be inclined to agree with you if it were just me or one machine, but these are characteristics that I'd use to describe Visual Studio across a number of machines, projects and teams over several yea

Not running into those issues must be really great for you, but does very little to make the experience better for me. I tend to run VS under virtualization with TFS, which is far from a pleasant experience, even on modern hardware.

That's an optimistic world view. Getting a web app built on .NET/MVC4/IIS running on mono isn't a trivial endeavor, and the open source implementations rightfully tend to lag behind the closed implementations.

I think it's less about not wanting to use Visual Studio and more about not wanting to have a Windows VM thrashing resources. I've worked with teams that have migrated to ServiceStack just to avoid running Windows. Assuming that r

Skype doesn't allow screen sharing or video chat for 3 or more participants without a paid premium plan. Once you've got that, Skype's screen sharing leaves a bit to be desired. Hangouts allows for screen sharing of individua

Not sure what you're getting at. Feature support doesn't mean there aren't inconsistencies in implementation, and caniuse's documentation on that delta are very much surface-level.

Transitions didn't end up being supported until IE10, which wouldn't jive with the IE8+ baseline the site proposes.

SVG performance on mobile is exceptionally abysmal. The desktop browser performance delta isn't bad.

by gisenberg 13y ago
In my experience, you can see noticeable performance losses pretty quickly on mobile devices in as few as 9 on-screen icons, especially in cases of animated elements. edit: caveat for animated elements.

YMMV. There's no argument that it can or can't be done, only that the time and cost to implement is equal to or greater than implementing N native apps. Wouldn't mind a contradictory citation for apps that have taken the plun

One thing to keep in mind is that targeting a browser is not the same as targeting an API level. API levels guarantee consistent behaviors across different targets, but if you use the WebView, you'll encounter different behaviors acros

In my experience, implementing a sufficiently complex app in PhoneGap targeting Android, Windows Phone, iPhone and iPad is absolutely more work with lower quality result than doing native versions of each app through Xamarin. HTML apps have

On a long enough timeline, HTML wins and posts like mine look dated and short-sighted. There's no doubt that things are getting better, and I can't look at at an in-browser demo of Epic Citadel and say that HTML isn't good en

There's a bit of irony in that the strengths of HTML5 shine through when confined to a single environment. If the best experience comes from targeting a single environment, then why go web at all? Further, HTML is considered a strong c

Even looking at the side-by-side shots of DOM Explorer, I have a hard time telling which one is new and which one is old. The parts that are most important to my work have largely gone unchanged, and the debugging tools I use most from Chro

For my taste, the Web Developer Tools haven't improved at all. What have you found that is an improvement?
