Yeah, but when developing it ends up being confusing sometimes since we're often targeting Mozilla Aurora, it is also why I prefer to call it Aurora.js.

Yeah, but it had the name before Mozilla called their stuff Aurora, and it stuck. But yes, it is slightly confusing, we know; we're just out of imagination and if something as nice pops up, we might rename Aurora.js to lessen the confusion.

It is 128kbit in the MP3 demo, I think I used LAME to encode it, but I am not sure, could have been the one in OS X. It plays 320kbit files fine though.

I tried doing this before the rules were public, the reasons why I stopped 1. Two-letter TLDs are reserved for countries. 2. The $200k isn't the actual cost, it is only what you need to pay for an initial review, you won't get the money bac

The problem isn't in rounding or floating-point, these implementations won't be good enough to get even close to have to consider the issue of having to round correctly. You really need to reduce the argument to a sane range, otherwise the

It should be relatively trivial (mechanical) to implement a JPEG encoder in Javascript compatible with most browsers. More so if you don't care about IE < 10.

Yeah, that is actually a pretty awesome bit of engineering. I would never have thought of this, and it is exceptionally clever in some exciting hacker way.

Yeah the switch in the bottom left corner was not obvious. I thought the demo was broken at first.

Well, they are standard enough to fit into a MacBook Pro (even the 13") so I think they were quite popular, I have one, and know quite a few other people that do.

I think you need the talk to be able to understand what they meant. Because I for one haven't heard any rumors that forEach is faster than a for loop for example, and a lot of the other stuff. There is also a lot of things that are true in

It would be interesting to see how much money was lost or gained by Bayer based on this. I assume that usage might go up by at least a factor 20 in India (and their production costs go down) so those 6% might actually be a fair deal in the

Schematics for the chips are not available, but you can boot them without any non-free software or firmware. Which is why RMS prefers the platform coupled with gNewSense.

Because compiling jquery etc. is not expensive compared to the cost of downloading the script. Each version on Google CDN is already only downloaded once if the cache in the browser works correctly, so the cost is minimal.

It could be useful to be able to remove the Apple root from trust as well, only running locally signed applications. (Could be useful for public environments, schools, libraries, enterprise etc.)
