Normally you get a new Mac if you ask for it, it it has been updated in the last 15 days. Or a big discount on your existing purchase.

I think this is quite a nice experiment in UI. However too small and simple to start charging for (but please proof me wrong!). 1) What I miss is the possibility to attach files. This would be essential in typical collaborative environments

With simpler I meant: something if you just want to do some RF within your home using Arduino. But Flutter looks very exciting if you want to do something more fancy :)

Ughhh. Just noticed that I can't install the XCode Command Line Tools because the dev center is down... no stdio.h on my system. What is this, the dark ages!? :)

Thank you, very interesting. Am I correct that the button 'Visible to: All' is basically an action button where you can use the arrow on the side to change the action within? Those are not really common on OS X. Guess that's

The dialog you've shown for OS X does not look native at all. Not just the spacing, but especially the second selector ('render') is quite odd. Also the font usage for the labels, the light-gray borders around the input field

PS: the text editor has some quirks in Safari 7 where the caret is a few characters off sometimes (so when you type the characters appear in the wrong place). Might want to switch to a default <textarea> for Safari 7 for now...

Why not simply have a bunch of JPEG's and animate through those? Something like Javascript-powered MJPEG. GIF is awful for animations.

We've been using the same method for quote some time now. Not just for privacy purposes, but also performance-wise all these scripts and iframes are a bit much. Demo and code at http://simpleshare.schuttelaar.nl/

Agree 100%. I am amazed by all the positive remarks around here. I understand the startup-vibe, but I would expect 'hackers' around here to take note of privacy concerns.

Of course :) I just think that doing it from a HTML table is best practice and it's always nice when a library promotes these. Most developers simply go: 1) I want chart 2) Chart needs JSON 3) I give chart JSON

They look quite nice. But I would prefer that the default way of initializing the dataset is by loading a HTML table. This way content would always be accessible, even without Javscript and also by crawlers like Google.

Another point to consider: I think regular users prefer a bit of textures, gradients and real-life counterparts. It gives the UI a more friendly appearance. Never forget we're just monkeys.
