I don't think it can be solved without origin specific permissions - to allow using local fonts and whatnot used on the canvas, at the same time I don't think that would be an issue.

Tesla is operating at a loss, but Model S and Model X are sold at a high margin comparable to other cars in their category. Source: share holder letters.

Wouldn't Let's Encrypt offset any significant benefit of this change? Is it somehow difficult or counterproductive for these sites to add a certificate?

Is Mac support planned? Not really familiar with the internals, so I can't tell if the Linux branch is a generic (enough) branch for Unix and alike.

Well they did have Opera Beta with webkit as a separate app in the appstore for quite a while, that's a good solution for not-liking-thus-downgrading issue.

Also, on the Play Store publishing page, there are features for beta and alpha testing, not sure what they do, but I feel they are relevant as well.

it's funny how nothing changed in the last 5 years. Just replace ie10 with ie9 or ie8 in the comment and not too long ago those were true.

>> I find it sad (to annoying) that these projects still use actual form elements instead of `contenteditable`, even though they're quite obviously full-JS (and probably not going to be submitted through HTML forms), given the difficulty of correctly styling, integrating and interacting with form elements.

I think this is because of performance. form elements are rendered differently and actions mostly result in a limited repaint and a couple events fired. contenteditable DOM elements are a lot more work to update.

when setting the recipients, at the right there's a "cc" and "bcc" link, next to them is a "from" link as well. few more clicks then with the old interface, but that's fine for me. my only problem with this new UI is that reply cannot be popped out into this separate window

In service discovery is just convenient. With SOAP libraries, using a web service is as easy as 2-3 lines of code. The library handles loading the wsdl file, generating functions with appropriate parameters, sending requests and parsing response and exception handling. Without this ability, it's a lot more code.

It's not necessarily harder, but it's more code nevertheless.

having started my programming career with web stuff, i just cant stand the full blown IDEs because of their slowness and bloatedness. sublime text feels like having my cake and eating it too. it has most of the required features but its still amazingly fast and extendable.
