I have a <link> element pointing to some CSS, I can't seem to find a way in modern browsers to get the CSS content without XHR. Ideas?

iframe has similar limitations that prevent accessing file:. I need something that works online and in dev.

Plane delayed, pants cracked open from belt to crotch as I sat in the taxi, not on the guests lists — the day can only improve from here!

Already left :( It was mostly to attend Kjetil's beautiful wedding south of Oslo

Thanks, so far it's going well — people are just wondering why I have a sweater constantly around my waist when it's pretty warm :)

Do you have Address Book entries with the same names? Maybe they got merged.

Tout livre est "hyper" par définition. Mais centraliser les liens qui en partent semble peu intéressant.

Is there a good and simple to use proxy one can run on OSX? I mostly want to permanently cache some URIs so they keep working offline.
Replying to @fgeorges
Heh, and one that works from within any context, especially browsers :)
Replying to @null and @marcosc
Gee really? And said files keep the same URI that stays available offline?

No, but I wouldn't be surprised if told that this guy is :) http://bit.ly/2LCOy5
Success of a #lazyweb search requires the distribution of one's social network to be sufficiently less lazy than one is. Which is hard work.

Wait — I'm confused, I thought Hitler liked white people?
Replying to @kiphampton
Why, yes, indeed — that makes perfect sense. I guess we should get HTML5 to include euthanasia support.

Airplane mode? Stuffing them in a microwave oven usually works too (without switching it on naturally :)

No — it prompts to tell me that I should turn on Wifi, and sticks to "load event fired"

I gave up and bought Office Mac. I'm afraid it's the only serious game in town to communicate with our pointy haired cousins.
Replying to @hsivonen
Alas. I think that we could help a transition based on widget technology, but I don't quite have the bandwidth right now.
Replying to @abcoates
Just MS Office. It's pretty horrible, but nowhere near as unusable junk as OpenOffice.

Not hate you, but "badly" is an opinion. Open Web vector graphics are more important than syntax.

It's only inconsistent in spec until the spec is changed to make it consistent.

"crippled", "broken" — just words. After ten years of ardent dedication to SVG, I'm happy to see it finally with HTML.

The worst part is when you're on the receiving end of it, and it makes sense.
I wonder how long it is reasonable to wait for a PAG to report its findings?
Replying to @null and @shelleypowers
I haven't seen documentation of those problems — pointer?
Replying to @null and @shelleypowers
That only hurts people who already use SVG, but helps newcomers — I care about the bigger group.
Replying to @null and @shelleypowers
I think I made that case several times when the discussion cropped up some months ago, but IIRC you weren't active there then
Replying to @null and @shelleypowers
It provides for consistent authoring within an HTML context. SVG is open Web vector graphics long before it's XML.
Replying to @null and @shelleypowers
I have the unread thread about this handy, I'll read it and discuss there — might be simpler :)

That's not mobile, it's all Flash!
Replying to @Cutlass
Yeah but then it doesn't run on any mobile device that I have...
Replying to @null and @amyvdh
I just came back from inbox 666...
Replying to @Cutlass
So... why duplicate in Flash and HTML? The exact stuff that your SWF does for desktop can be done in HTML that works on mobile too.
Replying to @Cutlass
But unfortunately in this case the HTML version you make is poorer, even though it's the format with the greatest capabilities.
Replying to @Cutlass
Hahaha, that involves too much beer for productivity I'm afraid!
Hmmm, Dopplr acquired by Nokia. Cool, I hope it helps it grow. Kudos @mattb!
Whoa, the new ITMS UI rather blows, a lot less room for useful information.

Could it be due to them running in a text/html context?

At BarCamp Paris, surprised ~20% still think Java is relevant to the Web.
Replying to @hsivonen
Mostly GWT, and not knowing that you can do "serious" code in Javascript. But France is technologically backwards, usually.
Replying to @michaelhkay
They're using Java to do stuff in the browser — mostly GWT, with a little talk of applets. Feels like the 90s all over again!
