Umm this is amazing! The company I work for displays large engineering drawings in the browser; right now we have to choose between manual png conversion and loading the vectors directly (each one has its own problems). I tried the snippet

There is a newsletter called 'The Rundown' but it's more on the consumer side of gen AI; rather than hard academic research https://www.therundown.ai/

It could still be quite buggy with Oculus and Vive hardware. They have only enabled WebVR in "Cardboard" mode on mobile which has a much smaller surface area.

TL;DR is for people who forget "statement, explanation, example". Usually, they write some poorly formed paragraph and put a "TL;DR" at the end. Often, that TL;DR is simply the "statement" part of the paragraph that should have been at the

If anyone's interested in how the exploit works, here is my humble interpretation of the pastebin link: jsaxton86's comment sets the scene nicely so I'll just copy it here: "This family of JRE attacks is far too common. Basically, when an u

When I first saw this post, it was greyed-out from down voting. Now, it's at the top of the thread. This place is strange.

"Dr." is a title; "doctor" is noun which only ever refers to an MD.

When I'm doing front-end development, I love having a back-end guy who can flip the switch and turn it on.

It's probably related to a recent change in policy - http://www.kickstarter.com/blog/kickstarter-is-not-a-store "-Product simulations are prohibited. Projects cannot simulate events to demonstrate what a product might do in the future. Pr

At that point, you were way past the idea stage.

Just drag the tab out to its own window. Then you can minimize it and Chrome doesn't consider it to be in the background. Random aside: I just noticed that after you drag the Gangnam tab out to its own window, then you can open other tabs i

Hey there, I'm the developer of a browser based IDE called pixelJET. I was researching visual JavaScript debugging concepts to integrate into pixelJET when your post came up on HN. It's not really a real world applicatoin yet, but if it hel

I know there are a million and one people offering arm chair suggestions, but IMO it's about time that HN got sub-forums and moderators. I'd like to see a /startup or similar, moderated by entrepreneurs to set the tone of what posts or comm

Nice work, it looks really good. One minor (and I mean really minor) design thought: in the section near the bottom "Selected Projects", there are grey buttons and blue buttons; in the close proximity of the blue buttons, the grey buttons

Do you mean that it would be too much of an engineering burden, or that they wouldn't trust Kaspersky? In any case, such a thing could become mandatory one day, if the so-called "cyber war" on oil/utility/manufacturing continues.

Yeah I'm in Australia too :). Melbourne. I saw "Underground" on TV and became bored very easily. I read two paragraphs of the text version that you linked and I was hooked! Makes me wish I was 20 years younger. I suppose we have our own mov

I think I down-voted you by accident. I meant to upvote! Clumsy mouse movements. Great link.

You're being a bit disingenuous by not mentioning the inbuilt protections that the HTML5 Fullscreen API offers. "Also, any alphanumeric keyboard input while in full-screen mode causes a warning message to appear; this is done to help guard

Thanks, we'll increase the timeout. Clicking a menu item on the slider will stop it from moving :)

It might not sound like much, but the differentiating factor is pretty much that it's all inside the browser. You get a professional live coding setup, and instant hosting environment, and all you need is a browser. You can access it anywhe

That's definitely the sort of vision we have for the product. Full iPad support is not ready yet but should be coming soon. A bug is currently preventing the code editor from loading on the iPad browser. Quickfire (the panel down the bottom

Wow, the paul irish! Hi... That's totally right and it's a very cool feature, although that will only help you if you are using Chrome. One of the things I wanted was for the product to work on any browser, and without any plugins.

Thanks. We have a text editor though; not sure if you saw it. If can operate from a separate window, and it hotswaps all the HTML/CSS/JavaScript you code, without any lag. Our code editor is actually the open source "Ace editor" ( http://ac

That's something we're still trying to work out ourselves. As for professionals, the aim is to replicate a certain existing workflow, but move it to the web. That workflow is design file > HTML template > ??? (cms template, etc.) A

That's a really good question, one that I spent a lot of time thinking about before I started. Basically the way that they deal with changes to the page is fundamentally not suited to persisting the changes back to text. It would take a lot

Hi, thanks for the comment about the editing. The main problem this solves is that the Chrome Dev Tools/Firebug don't save your changes back to your source code. For people who do alot of front end development, they code some adjustments (s
