Laughing at cyberbullying because it happens online is as dumb as laughing about school bullying because it happens in school, an environment which most adults will agree is ridiculous. That doesn't mean there aren't a few good po

Yeah we should be so happy that, instead of staying relevant and bringing the web forward, Mozilla has turned into a bastion of feels where expertise and merit is ignored. Nothing Mozilla does is remotely related to any of this, and just be

How many people would be offended at the statement "white people can't see the colour purple"? Very few, I'd imagine, because it's patently ridiculous. If you imply that women are inferior though, the statement has

I'm a low-lander cyclist who moved across the ocean. For the most part, you're right. A couple of observations though... The "right on red" seems to be a hack to address the fact that there are too many traffic lights. I

If the comment didn't tip you off, I'm a DSP engineer. I don't make music, I make software. The software I want to make, I can't make with the Web Audio API. Sandboxes are cute, but they are a shitty choice to build the

See, I'm not interested in what Flash could do. I'm interested in what Ableton, Garageband, etc. can do. With Web Audio, you can't ask for mic permissions without listening indefinitely, using up battery. You can't proce
