I think it's really cool that you are pushing on this. I'll probably pursue the jvm for a little while longer but I can see the attraction to clojurescript for this and will check in down the road.

Yes this was my thinking on how to proceed. I'm just kind of surprised and disconcerted how little I could find on the web, specifically for minimizing footprint.

One of the things that always stops me pushing too far into clojure is memory footprint. Does anyone have any suggestions or resources for how to keep the upfront memory cost of the jvm to a minimum (and monitor that its still within bounds

https://docs.nativescript.org/runtimes/android/advanced-topi... Perhaps I'm misunderstanding your concern, but it doesn't look like js allocates for the actual object just a proxy for the java.

My next foray into mobile is going to be with this- https://www.nativescript.org/ Digging through the api it just looks much more capable in directly calling android instead of abstracted cross platform blobs.

matrix.org with the vector.im and android client have been pretty great so far. Matrix has solved the right engineering problem first which is the persistence of the chats across all of your clients.

It's particularly disturbing when his wealth makes him influential. He has the material means to not need corn-pone opinions but instead holds to them and encourages them in his followers.

Ad hominem doesn't quite mean what you suggest. The two postings are directly related and not an attack based on his wearing of red shirts on thursdays. From the wikipedia """Ad hominem reasoning is not always fallacious

Actually thanks for the web archive method I'll use that again. I was factually confused by this undated repost, but what was unneccessary or unwarranted? Does the timing in posts make this deeply self involved opinion ok?

Citation needed. Your quibble over the precise date of the post seems predictive of an inability to deal with the larger points raised.

I assume you are thinking through it's implications for WebVR+servo? I can see questioning the utility for current 2d applications but this is really critical speed when the large amount of translation and scaling of many pages in a 3d

Emacs and orgmode are probably your next step :) orgmode is really a superset of markdown with PIM markup added. It exports to markdown and a ton of other formats. Cheers.

Supporting POP3 seems like an anti-feature in 2015. It seems to me, that muddling its lack of features into the middle of an application that properly supports IMAP would make your internal api much more complex?

Yes I think you get my drift then. Based on your example, I would say that VR is even pre-PalmPilot. It's still a territory for people building the future or for those wanting to peek at it.

You seem to be somewhat conflating "mass consumer adoption" and "useful". I'm not a fan of Facebook's mass consumer adoption strategy, I don't think it's ready. I am very long VR over time but I think

"time saving" and "without taking my fingers off the home row" is an extremely shallow view of why people pick emacs and org-mode as a major portion of their computational environment. Broadly it's about creating a

Thanks for this. Over the years I've decided the gradual adjustment lat/long bits are really a negative feature. It engineer cool but it's counterproductive to the goal. I want the monitor dim between 7pm and 630am regardless

Not at all unusual. I find OSX to be genuinely dreadful for stability and a 3rd class unix at best in its userspace.

The goal is to be able to FLUENTLY edit text. Lowering the number of keystrokes can aid that but is ancillary. Fluency comes after learning it well enough that you aren't thinking about it anymore. Yes you should occasionally reevaluat

It's difficult for me to give feedback as I'm too opinionated at some level (ie see my "computational document" comment). I'm also a grumpy vim/emacs diehard in general so your keybindings are never going to be

This whole area is very underserved in how people interact with their computers, glad to see people pushing at it. You could do worse then really digging deep into emacs org-mode and learning it well. It takes what you are doing to a much h

Your project seems perfect for sandstorm. The gap between "you can run your own server" and a one click install via sandstorm is profound.

With openvpn (which is just ssl) you can simply not respond when someone presents a bad key. openssh always responds (unless I've missed a recent feature) thus exposing which port its listening on and that you sent a bad key. The silen
