looks at code, sees safety closures, function assignments, sequential var declaration Ahh I see you are one of the old ways, of the lost knowledge :) I am very nostalgic for this style of development, even though I do not miss it in a tea

I've heard of Plan 9, but I honestly have no idea what this is. But it sounds interesting... could you give a briefer to someone that is not familiar with Plan 9?

Something that struck me from your comment is that yes, there are more serious repercussions than others. The problem here is that the pressure and feedback from those repercussions is relative, and knowing this makes it especially difficul

I agree, this article feels like it was written in 2006. While the analysis of Obj-J is spot on, does anyone actually use it anymore? I would never consider it a viable framework, especially with the proliferation of top-notch, extremely ac

This is absolutely fascinating, but how do we actually interact with eve? How does she actually work? Where is she running?

If you really want quotes and things to be presented in the same formatting as the site, you might want to try Citational. It fills a different role than GimmieBar, in that it's meant for one-shot sharing instead of an archive. But it does

This was my exact thought as well. Just because the ad industry doesn't want this to happen, doesn't mean the apps implementing it should get slammed. IE has done great strides in the past few years.

My completely non-scientific observations have found that OS X needs plenty of RAM, like any modern OS. However, any disk I/O task has a huge performance impact on the rest of the system, as described by this article. For example, something

Firefox 12 does this too, on both my MB Pro and iMac. I think it has to flush so many caches that disk I/O just takes forever. This is purely conjecture, though.

You won't be surprised, but checkout Project Bikeshed, which was just demoed at JSConf: http://bike.sh/ Pretty cool stuff!

Ah, my mistake, I should have looked first. Honestly, it was a beautiful screen.

Any chance you have a Motorola Droid (1st one) hanging around? I'd love to see how that screen compares. It was near-retina, at least by the look of it, and I think was AMOLED (since you mentioned the Nexus One).

I thought some weird cache from Oink's Pink Palace was found! Hadn't heard of this Oink until now.

The view source is not a non-sequitor. What would prevent a server from refusing to stream the source? It would have to be part of the VM spec that the source must be made available, and that seems unlikely. I look at Flash, which I used to

Yes, you're right. Sorry, I was mistaken, confusing how Dart has its own VM, and how the browser has to have explicit support for said VM. (And yes, I know Dart can also compile to JS, that's not my point).

by kirbysayshi 15y ago
Brendan Eich has talked about why bytecode + VM is a bad idea for a browser: http://www.aminutewithbrendan.com/pages/20101122 If you really want a VM, it already exists. It's called JavaScript, assembly language of the web. I would hate f

Yes, Git does. For text files. Not for something like a PSD. A PSD absolutely requires some sort of visual diff tool that can interpret a diff of a binary PSD, just just a binary file.

Picard states this several times, almost explicitly, when explaining to alien cultures why the Federation doesn't use money. The pursuit of wealth was superseded by the pursuit of the betterment of the fellow man/member of the Federation.

Keep this in mind too: Star Trek, while originally attempting to portray humanity in the future, inevitably created canon. Thus, there is a world war 3 in the star trek universe that occurs around 1999 (I can't remember the exact time frame

I would discount any performance/benchmarking discussions unless it uses jsperf, benchmarkjs or a similar suite.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. Basically, this article should be retitled, "jQuery Good Practices", and only then after most points are either removed or revised. Is it worth an itemized address? It's nice to have a list of good things to d

There was mention of a performance overhead of _ as a suggestion as to how to improve... How does JSPP, in its current state, compare with V8 execution speed?
