Star Trek has always been a forward thinking community and back in 2005, fans tried to crowd-fund $10M to produce a 5th season of Star Trek Enterprise. $3M was put in by private donors of which one was believed to be Paul Allen. Beyond tha

This is what Asia does, they skip the consumer research and just make stuff and sell it at a small markup over cost. This is not a new product, a revolution, or anything other than a tiny PC. Some people will buy it, it might even be call

This method may allow message passing between tabs, and windows, but it does not do so between iFrames. Two iFrames on the tab will not trigger storage events on each other. In my opinion this is a bug that should be fixed, https://code.g

the larger problem with javascript linking is, the 'new tab' problem. On windows and linux center clicking the mouse on a link opens a new tab and does not focus on it. most javascript does not simulate this behavior.

Great work. It's come along way since the earlier prototype I've seen. For larger groups it would be great if you could click a link and go into private browsing mode, but still know what slide the group was on.

MD5/ SHA is designed to be slow. so it makes sense that one that is optimized to be chaotic, low collision probability and even distribution could be faster.

so data is a requirement for you too? teaching a user about a pattern is not a good enough reason?

what requirements would you have to implement a grey-ed out feature?

I am glad they are trying it, but it'a quite the molehill to climb up 4 or 5 years after Apple and Google tried it, and palm, ms, mozilla and blackberry have had moderate success or failure. It's important for the web to stay free, but we a

My gut reaction agrees, but I have seen times, especially at 'telly' where we were able to do a quick test and prove that users were interested in a feature. However in that case we were both watching data and only running the test for a fe
