    Good to see another contender in the C++/D space. Shame they will build another utterly broken browser on top of it.

    And she quit? We've become an oversensitive society of weaklings. When I was in school I was physically harassed daily. I had to fight people because I was into computers. People w…

    The fact that an IQ test worked favourably for someone from a disadvantaged background doesn't demonstrate anything about their appropriateness as an assessor of intelligence. IQ i…

    "So much better" in what sense? What are the technical merits of HTML5 above the Flash runtime?

    It looks like you're using the PS/3 as an analogy for Flash in your post.

    HTML is a terrible way to build applications. All these complex approaches have failed miserably on a technological level. Why are Mozilla even bothering to "solve" all these suppo…

    I feel you on the hate for Flash, but HTML5 is only marginally less stupid. Javascript as the bottom layer of a platform? Give me a break. And a bloated pile of standards is worse …

    So.. you agree with me? HTML5 is basically a pile of poop, except that it's got a big install base. Great. Welcome to the future of programming.

    Please at least reply if you down vote. I would like to know what I'm mistaken about.

    Why down vote? Web babies seem to get very upset when the abject technological failure of the browser is pointed out to them. It has failed comprehensively: 1) security 2) computat…

    Not trying to bully you, but what part of this is impressive? There doesn't seem to be anything here that wasn't done better decades ago. Why does everything become impressive once…

    Please, stop doing things like this. You people are destroying programming! Why does everything have to be so complicated? Because people keep fucking everything up with stupidity,…
