As a regular user of Chrome dev tools, they're nice, but it's no Visual Studio.

Tooling is a big boon with TypeScript: Go to Definition, Find All References, Refactor->Rename, debug your TypeScript in Visual Studio. You're right that if you don't use the tooling, TypeScript is of lesser value. Using things

While baking TypeScript into Visual Studio isn't a certainty of its future success (e.g. Silverlight), it is a good indicator of Microsoft's commitment to the language. As a former CoffeeScript user, I love TypeScript: it's a

This is a smart move. Crapware vendors have started installing Chrome extensions bundled with their crapware installers, hijacking browser home page and search page. The end result of this is that many of my non-technical family members end

Pardon my asking, but is this really a new language? The website looks like it was designed in 1998, complete with scrolling marquee, Flash banner, and visitor count ticker. If this is really new, may I suggest removing the Flash animation

I just moved from Android to Windows Phone, went with the Lumia 925 as well. Having used it for a month now, I like it. Maybe missing some apps (Sonos was one I was looking for and disappointed, for example.) But on the whole, I am happy wi

Pollution levels are not at their highest [1]. And even if they were, it would not mean we should stop saving lives. Gates' post shows that saving lives actually helps overpopulation, historically. And through technological advances, w

Bill Gates just addressed this [1], showing the faulty thinking behind this idea that saving lives is ultimately bad for the earth. "It may be counterintuitive, but the countries with the most deaths have among the fastest-growing popu

What's your question, exactly?

by judah 13y ago
Agreed. It's time to obstruct these money-making corporations. We can slap their hands with lawsuits brought against them for making money, or we can shut down their greedy, wealth-building schemes. These money-loving fat cats have it

Strange, because I am able to play native HTML5 MP3 audio on other sites just fine.
523.
by judah 13y ago
Yeah, it is not possible to please every person. MP3 has native HTML5 audio support on web browsers (Chrome, FF, IE, Safari) for Windows XP and up, modern Macs, and any modern Droid, iOS, or Windows Phone sold in the last 5 years. It makes

by judah 13y ago
As a side note to web developers dealing with audio: MP3 is really the "plays everywhere" audio format for HTML5 audio. Firefox was the last holdout, and they capitulated last year [1]; FF for XP and up and FF for Mac now support

by judah 13y ago
Hahah. I just tested this on my Windows Phone, Nokia 925, and yeah, not only does it not vibrate, but it doesn't play the audio. The audio was a surprise, since it runs my HTML5 radio software just fine. I'm guessing the demo used

This is really a limitation on iOS, see my blog post on the subject here: http://debuggerdotbreak.wordpress.com/2012/06/12/apple-pleas... It's a limitation that makes it quite annoying to build HTML5 aud

I'm running IE 11 here and couldn't get it to crash, despite clearing the forms, focusing one of the text boxes, and beginning to enter data.

Yeah. I figured I wouldn't do it for the money, since authoring tech books brings in pennies for the author. I'd like to do it for career sake. "Hey, I love JS so much, I wrote a book on a popular JS framework."

I was contacted by Packt yesterday to write a book on KnockoutJS. I am an expert in the subject matter, however, I'm currently working a full time dev job, a part time dev job at nights, and my startup on the weekends. So, I declined.

I use CoffeeScript in my day job for the last 2 years. I've been using TypeScript in my startup the last 6 months. They are definitely not the same. TypeScript is JavaScript + types, whereas CoffeeScript is a new language, a mashup of

FWIW, there is talk of adding async/await like features (C#, Python) to TypeScript in a post 1.0 release.
