One thing to keep note of is that SMIL is being deprecated by Chrome. https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/#!topic/blink...

Things are changing quite a bit, especially in IT and Startup world. Engineers are being paid decent salaries, although not as much as the bankers, enough to live happily in Singapore.

It's how WebAudio works. If the tab loses focus, the callbacks to the Audio Thread are throttled so the sequencing might be a bit messed up.

Which browser is this?

Basically creates a pattern from your letters and sequences it using WebAudio. If you look at the Network tab, you'll see the individual mp3 files for each letter being downloaded.

Ah! But this chip only has a sub-uA sleep mode. So it will have the said decades battery life if it sleeps most of the time, which might be true in the cases of some kind of IoT application, but not if it's actually running often.

I vaguely remember when talking to some ICANN people that there were talks of a system to restrict the domains which the individual root-CAs were allowed to sign for. I don't remember what happened to that.

I have heard of a similar reasoning for Apple not supporting WebRTC.

If they're based on WebRTC then I believe end-to-end encryption is baked into the standard. Whether they use the standard completely is another question.

Pretty cool. Do you have source or any writeup of your techniques for the kind of phase vocoding you are doing?

If the avalanche diode is the main/primary source of entropy why do we need the CC2531? The super paranoid part of me is worried about the 802.15.4 radio being used as a vector to taint the RNG. Shouldn't an HW RNG NOT have any se

Just for that I will support you guys when it goes on kickstarter!

One of the kickstarter rewards could be the ICSP programmer HW (i'm guessing that's what you're using) so who ever wants to program it could do it.

Also it needs compressed air capsules right? Those need to be refilled. :(

How's the rok holding up? I always wanted to get one. But I read reviews that it had issues with balance and it would topple easily etc.

Have been using the Moka pot exclusively for the last 4-5yrs. Love it! The one use case where the Moka pot fails is when you don't have access to a hot-plate/stove/fire. But in urban environments (my office) I do have access

I'm pretty sure we will. At the end of the day it's the amount of each that's consumed that matters. As the old adage goes, everything is fine in moderation.

That is only applicable if you take up PR (Permanent Residence) in Singapore. Hence many expats stay here on Employment Pass which has no such obligations.

This! I am totally happy donating $10 to whisper systems for this work instead of forcing me to donate $10 to Apache Foundation (although a worthy cause) to be able to get https access to Maven Central.

I think the website compares it to BluetoothLE which is a really low energy. But typical BluetoothLE data rates are much much lower than 250Kbits/s. I'm still surprised that they can bring it down to lesser active current draw tha

"The WebAudio API does provide a ScriptProcessorNode for JS processing, but it appears to suffer from the problems I described." Yup. That is being worked on by W3C and the WebAudio committee as we speak. WebWorker based JS proces

Wait.. I thought V8 doesn't support asm.js? Or are they comparing it against a fork of V8 which does support asm.js.. Because if they're saying the new webkit jsc (using asm.js) is faster than V8 (not using using asm.js), then it&
