It's hard to make photorealistic Mario or Zelda. Their consoles are primary for their own games which have very cartoony look.

- Both Chrome and Firefox remove npapi plugin support to move web forward - But Chrome leaves few plugins, including Hangouts, and makes them builtin - Now Hangouts does not work in Firefox, users think that Chrome is superior Party like it

I see "Extension: Google Hangouts" in Chrome Task Manager[1], but I don't see anything Hangouts-related in chrome://extensions/. Seems that it's good old npapi plugin, but built-in into chrome, like Flash

It's called XMPP but everyone hates it because it's based on XML and XML is not trendy.

Possibly the same thing that powers Hangouts and requires to install plugin in other browsers (as other browsers don't support plugins anymore, Hangouts works only in Chrome too).

In Russia, FM stations are as bad as TV. Mostly "Russian chanson" music — songs about jail life and "thieves romanticism", lowest grade pop music and propaganda news. Is there decent stations in US? But it would be super

All 3 examples are readable but I prefer middle, with dark grey. Pure black and pure white is not great, most displays have enough contrast to make it painful.

At least not its datastore. It's extremely weird, hard to use correctly and nonstandard. You have to rewrite all of your data layer if you're going to move from it (or if Google will deprecate it, I think it will be quite soon). I

As I understand, it's ORM, but without 'mapper'. Every ORM has querying DSL, some of them are not producing objects at all. I think LINQ is that part of ORM. Some ORMs have poor querying ability: Rails, Django (more OOP appro

I think this OS will be mostly for entertainment so there's no need for lots of UI, only "Play" and "Pause" buttons.

Because of "single responsibility principle" it's better if classes and methods do one thing. That usually leads to lots of small classes and small methods.

Looks interesting. At least it's not competition-based and more sandbox-like. In global competition you are required to use state of the art techniques, and there's no other ways to just having fun.
