Where was he years ago when this sort of 2-factor auth was starting to get popular? Don't you have to actively defend your patent? Sitting on it for 15 years and then deciding to sue on a whim can't look good in a court's eyes...

The web (and WebKit in particular) is on track to catch up w/ native frameworks in terms of tools at the disposal of developers. Albeit in a slightly more rough form. The next 5-10 years are going to be interesting.

It sure didn't when I was there three years ago, but maybe they moved quickly.

AWS tech maybe, but you can be pretty assured that the data centers (or at least networks) are are almost completely segregated.

Judging from alpb's post, they either currently work there, or did in the past. "retail website" being the key phrase used frequently internally to Amazon.

You should check for any root level file with all caps LICENSE in it. Other common examples: LICENSE.txt LICENSE.md MIT-LICENSE MIT-LICENSE.txt etc.

Is that legally binding? Many licenses have an explicit clause that they are to be duplicated with the source. Here's the clause from the MIT License, for example: > The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be includ

That's kinda surprising; WebKit's has had support for this for 6 months now: https://trac.webkit.org/browser/trunk/Source/WebCore/inspect... (I thought chromium was pretty quick to bump webkit revs)

This is a bad idea - forcing every DOM node to become a hardware accelerated layer is going to introduce a huge amount of memory overhead (webkit doesn't release composited layers when they scroll off screen, in many cases) A bette

And that won't help you get around the fact that DRM is security through obscurity . If DRM were cryptographically secure, we wouldn't be able to read the books at all. The fundamental difference from PKI is that "attackers" have both t

I can understand why they're frustrated by the big 6, but why Amazon? Amazon does not mandate DRM on ebooks. All O'Reilly ebooks are DRM-free on Amazon, for example...

You can't do smart things on each frame (for ex, subbing in new content as the user scrolls) You also don't know for sure when a scroll ends w/ the current impl

There's a significant amount of effort put into touch handling on the native side of the world. Browser-based apps shouldn't be in the business of emulating the native behavior unless absolutely necessary. (Unfortunately, it's painfully f

This is a great overview about the two interpreters! However, I think you're being a bit inaccurate about how flexible the Rubinius VM is. It is certainly more than flexible enough to support a wide variety of non-Ruby languages. The core
