I plan on including other specs there; notably ReSpec-based ones using PhantomJS.

If she gets elected it'll be two with @JeniT!

Replying to @rgarner

glad you like it, don't hesitate to ask your own!

Replying to @mnot

well, if the four horsemen get in it could be a new TAG, and less of a waste of time.

Replying to @julien_igel

There are four seats and four horsemen - that's who you vote for!

Replying to @rgarner

The JSON case is simpler, and avoids the versioning of document formats issue, which IMHO is solved.

Any suggestions to replace Calendar.app and Contacts.app? I'm just about at the end of the leash with those.

Replying to @null and @graouts

Thanks, I'll give it a shot!

Replying to @consttype

Replying to @null and @karlpro

I need a simple calendar with reminders. Calendar: ugly, I can't read the contrast in the small left calendars...

Replying to @null and @karlpro

reminders can't be snoozed, create events full of bugs, broken shared cal integration, slow, unusable edit UI.

Replying to @null and @karlpro

Re Contacts: so slow it's unusable, ugly, stubborn in bad defaults

Replying to @null and @karlpro

Not just the leather, the animations hurt me, the contrast is unreadable, the form controls are… bizarre.

Replying to @null and @karlpro

You manage not to hit the bugs?

Friends of Anglophonia: any suggestions for a magazine subscription for a 3 year old?

Replying to @vambenepe

I think it's mostly because those are the needs that have been ignored most at the architectural level.

Replying to @vambenepe

But if you are interested in a different focus, I encourage you to make yourself heard loud and clear!

Replying to @vambenepe

It's not just browser tech — the Web also has a server component; HTTP matters an awful lot for instance.

When what? The <main> element will be implemented? It's too early to say, but with a tiny shim you can start using it!

Replying to @SbnMn and @SebastienMenu

Une <section> d'élite même! @diou

Replying to @domenic

At this stage they are few — the snapshots are just a couple weeks apart. The diff is one will stay that way, the other grow.

Replying to @tobie

Hasn't someone already done that? The hard bit is printing the cartridges :)

Replying to @LauraKalbag

Is relying on JS really a problem in this context?

Replying to @tobie

That's what I meant — full cartridges. Also xkcd.com/924/

Replying to @LauraKalbag

JS doesn't affect mobile performance on its own — it really depends on how it's used. Dunno about gists.

Replying to @cham

Does it really use document.write? That would be bad here. @laurakalbag

Replying to @tobie

As in 3D printer ink, right?

Replying to @LauraKalbag

If it uses document.write, you could write a better lib that's async and just looks for data-gist or some such. @brianleroux

Replying to @tobie

That's what I meant too!

Replying to @cham

No, it blocks parsing on JS execution — a bad idea! @laurakalbag

I wouldn't be so sure about that, doing it async is rather trivial. Perceived load matter far more than actual load, too. @laurakalbag

Replying to @kruy

La différence est que 5.0 ne bouge plus alors que 5.1 va évoluer. A cet instant précis, la différence est minimale (qqs attributs).

Replying to @kruy

Mais ça va changer vite!

Replying to @Kevin_Ellen_

Yes you could — just add CSS to make it display:block, and the shim for IE to parse it right. That's it!

Replying to @brucel

It's published man, w3.org/TR/2012/WD-htm…
↺ 1

Replying to @Kevin_Ellen_

If you use it, tell us about it!

Replying to @cham

Keep in mind that it'll block parsing not just for exec, but while the script loads. If above the fold, it'll feel long @laurakalbag

Replying to @ElieSl

On ne pourra jamais empêcher les mauvais ergonomes de sévir!

Replying to @brucel

Yup, FPWD. The diffs are small — for 5.1 mostly a few attributes, for canvas it's mostly HD.

Replying to @brucel

The important diff is that one will grow, not the other. But the snapshots were taken just a few weeks apart.

I don't know of a syntax highlighter, but I can give you a parser if you want!

Replying to @athibaud

So @github support replied really quickly, confirmed that it's a caching bug, and fixed it for me. They rock :)

Replying to @really_bz and @bz_moz, @davidbruant, @rik24d

Yeah we've strayed far enough from OMG IDL that I've given up on using anything targeting that.

Replying to @really_bz and @bz_moz, @davidbruant, @rik24d

I know :) I was just kidding, a full-fledged parser is probably the worst thing to use for syntax highlighting.
