Yep, doesn't load for me either.

#6Are there functional benefits of blurriness other than just being aesthetically pleasing or "cutting edge," as the author claims?

I think it tends to allow more color to come through in an otherwise sea of gray panels. Visually differentiating panels is not just aesthetics, but usability.

Yeah I'm not sure what machines (or VMs) they were running Yosemite on, but I haven't had issues with flickering translucent windows even on the first beta release.

#9About 10 - 15 years ago I did some tests, animations done in After Effects mostly, showing some UI concepts that used motion blur, depth of field, translucency, parallax, etc. I wanted to play around with non-planer surfaces, but at the time you couldn't do anything like that in After Effects.
I paid absolutely no attention to how "expensive" any of it was in terms of processing. I was interested in exploring possibilities. Some of the effects were pretty amazing, it seemed to me. Depth of field control particularly so.
At the time I couldn't drum up _any_ interest. Even as a purely intellectual curiosity. Several people were actually hostile to the whole concept.

I'm skilled in the art of breaking shit, I guess ;)
Try going full screen and back again quickly. Try flipping through view modes in finder. Try dragging the sidebar width on the inside edge of finder.
I'm on a Retina MBP. I installed it on a new partition.
