Ruby on Rails and your single-origin latte is calling. C is the most performant for years now, a large part of the kernel is in assembly. Remember to download your gems tonight, rude boy.

I see, makes sense - it is easy to multiply big nums together but insane to factor the bignums out of them. You explained it more succinctly than I've ever understood it, thanks a ton!

Couldn't a cross-comparison be used, encrypting different known blocks and observing certain key properties? I would imagine that any kind of reversible operation would be able to be deduced if it can be applied to specific data that r

This pattern is egregious and shows a lack of knowledge of the architecture and language. All these private methods are going to be duplicated for every object created. The whole point of the 'this' magic in javascript is to allow

Emscripten is far more worthy of the phrase 'saved JS dev.'

Yes, render,reflow,timeouts,event handling, etc happens.. You might need to set a CSS property and then animate it. In this case you'll need to wait for a render in between the two steps Also useful if you need to wait until after all

CoffeeScript is a debauchery of JS. With ECMAScript 6 you won't need CoffeeScript for anything except maybe it's inline printf-like string substitution.

Timeouts are not checked on every event loop, hence the 4ms delay. And no, setTimeout is asynchronous and processed during the event loop. Basic event loop is; timeouts, js execution, repaint, reflow, etc

This article is great because it doesn't argue for piracy or against it. I do feel that it is missing a discussion about the colour of bits being amalgated by other bits. IE, if I buy a movie and then I torrent that same movie, is the

While it may be cool that Kal compiles itself, unless there is a source tree for the Kal binaries themselves, there is a indubitably huge issue of trust with distributing binaries. Relevant: http://cm.bell-labs.com/who&#x2F

That was a great video, thank you! Knowing basic gear mechanics helps a lot in understanding how cars function. This 1937 video about differentials is also enlightening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYAw79386WI Why is it

You're wrong. The relationship is different, the graph of the speed limit vs velocity would also be different, for the same masses/cars.

An operation queue where dependencies can be set is also very relevant. For example, if you have to do 2 different json requests, followed by a render - but they are mutually exclusive, you can do a 2->1 dependency. If they do depend on

Microsoft pretty much let their c compiler rot. It doesn't support dynamic allocation, ie, int arr[numElts];, it doesn't even support var declaration anywhere but at the beginning of a function. Making code I've been writing
