It's not meant to be a competitor to JSTOR, as much as this is a statement in honor of someone.

A framework like that would be awesome, but that has a different meaning from the collection of personal pdf posts/uploads each individual on Twitter contributed.

Speaking of which, how is the KHTML (not webkit) code now?

Heh. Judging from the URL of this post, it might be Half Life 3.

It's a .png file of the code...

I don't see what's going on. Anyone care to explain/give some context?

Does this work? There's a lot of removed code in that commit, does this replicate the old behavior?

Are we seriously considering otherwise? Obviously the PR department managed it. Obama seems pretty lighthearted, so he has a bit of leeway in responding wittily, but much of it has to be planned.

They're not meant to do anything other than exist. It's used as a low end way to make a PC actually have a graphics card, you know, that can display Microsoft Word prettily enough with Aero. That's what Intel cards started out as.

Moving forward, they're giving the cards enough power to help render movie times, playing games such as League of Legends casually at low (think 1366 by 768, not 1080p) resolutions and medium settings, etc that can satisfy 90% of user needs.

Maybe in a few years Intel will make their own graphics cards that can compare in power to current Nvidia and ATI cards. Until then, these cards serve as cheap stuff that can be found on every computer.

That's the worst MBA vs Real life thinking ever. I hope the actual investors aren't nearsighted enough to think that kicking Zuck out will make facebook's stock value improve. As much as everyone loves to hate on facebook, it's not going anywhere without him.

No. 1080p is 16:9, or 1920 by 1080.

I don't find it unusual. He's building rapport with a reader base by referencing american pop culture, and possibly knowing that many linkbait-y blogs will jump on this as a hook. Nothing too weird, but imo more of a way to bring publicity to his rebuttal than an actual argument point.

No love for Berkeley? I would argue that if you were a perspective student reading USWNR, simply due to proximity to the silicon valley makes the average student get much better chances at jobs and experience in tech.

I'd suppose that if the stock is worth $20, and becomes $20 after a few months, the employees don't really care. It's the independent investors who were shafted for the most part.

Let's get another definition. This one is from wikipedia: Proprietary software is computer software licensed under exclusive legal right of the copyright holder. The licensee is given the right to use the software under certain conditions, while restricted from other uses, such as modification, further distribution, or reverse engineering.

As far as I am aware of, any user of WebM are NOT restricted from modification, further distribution, or reverse engineering. The beauty of the current licencing is that it can't be revoked; it is already free. Google can develop future versions and lock it down (suicidal move, though), but as it is the community has its hands on it.

Nitpick: It's not drag friction as much it was compressive heating. I suppose if you can avoid the compression, it wouldn't be as much of an issue...
