| 02:05 | <jamesr_> | man. i really vividly remember a fairly long email thread with some mozillians about the element parameter in requestAnimationFrame but can't find it |
| 02:08 | <jamesr_> | ah! found it. had a pretty bad thread title |

| 03:36 | <ZXY> | sorry to ask this here, but on certain sites, the font for forms seems to have changed to my browser's serif font |
| 03:36 | <ZXY> | Trying to look for firefox's default css file but can't seem to find it/them |

| 03:48 | <MikeSmith> | Rob Glidden hath awakened |
| 03:53 | <zewt> | because clearly "royalty free" is basically the same as "open standard", right? *cough* |
| 04:02 | <MikeSmith> | “It seems every few months a patent pool or some one manages to spin up wishful thinking that there will soon be a “new deal” that will answer the needs of royalty free communities, only to cleverly leave the hopeful twisting in the wind." |

| 05:25 | <Hixie> | is there a sane way of seeing if a variable is an integer (in JS) without doing string manipulation? sites seem to suggest using parseInt(), which as far as i can tell is silly. |
| 05:27 | <zewt> | Math.floor(i) == i? |
| 05:29 | <Hixie> | yeah i guess that's as good as anything |
| 05:29 | <Hixie> | thanks |
| 05:30 | <zewt> | though it's true for Infinity |
| 05:30 | <Hixie> | not an issue here |
| 05:30 | <Hixie> | i just want to find where in my !$#@%$#@& code i'm passing a fraction for something that much later gets used as an array index |
| 13:12 | <gsnedders> | Hixie: If you only care about int32, i | 0 === i, uint32 i >>> 0 === i, otherwise round and compare works. |
| 13:46 | <annevk> | oh |
| 13:46 | <annevk> | 2d context spec is unforked now |
| 20:25 | <Ms2ger> | annevk5, I figured out why web-apps-tracker was broken |
| 20:25 | <Ms2ger> | The editorial changes checkbox got turned off somehow |
| 22:22 | <smaug____> | it is sad what Google is doing to the web :( |
| 22:39 | <Taggnostr> | smaug____, what is Google doing? |
| 22:40 | <bga> | making web binary |
| 22:41 | <fjkeorjer> | You mean this: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Chrome/thread?tid=062b5ce9408431aa&hl=en ??? |
| 22:44 | <smaug____> | I was thinking about NaCl, Dash, and making some of their services available only to their client software etc.. |
| 22:47 | <fjkeorjer> | You mean you cannot hook-up an app written in Dash to a php backend? |
| 22:50 | <gsnedders> | Dart, if it makes it into Chrome, will give a better UX than in any other browser. |
| 22:51 | <smaug____> | Dash, Dart, whatever |
| 22:52 | <fjkeorjer> | So what's different between the two? |
| 22:52 | <gsnedders> | They're the same. |
| 22:52 | <gsnedders> | Dash was the internal code name pre-launch, announced as Dart. |
| 22:53 | <fjkeorjer> | So how does it work with server software? |
| 22:53 | <gsnedders> | It doesn't. |
| 22:53 | <gsnedders> | It's no different to JS, it doesn't. |
| 22:54 | <fjkeorjer> | That sucks, this makes it useless for me |
| 22:56 | <Dashiva> | Damn Dash, I'm going to have to change my highlights |
| 22:58 | <smaug____> | Sorry Dashiva :) |
| 22:59 | <fjkeorjer> | Indian goddess Dashiva? |
| 23:00 | <bga> | gsnedders ppl want native types and syntax for classes |
| 23:00 | <bga> | thay tired to invent class sugar for js |
| 23:00 | <bga> | thay want real private fields |
| 23:01 | <bga> | etc |
| 23:01 | <Ms2ger> | Those are coming to JS, obviously |
| 23:01 | <bga> | those was in js |
| 23:01 | <bga> | as es4 |
| 23:03 | <Dashiva> | fjkeorjer: If you're referring to Shiva, god not goddess |
| 23:03 | <Dashiva> | Square has a lot to answer for there |
| 23:05 | <bga> | Ms2ger anyway in future nobody will use js in web. js's jit allow write erlang/jvm/... vm over js |
| 23:05 | <bga> | ppl now have choose |
| 23:07 | <bga> | as result js will outdated thechnology and web will switch to NaCl |
| 23:07 | <bga> | only node.js same some community |
| 23:07 | <bga> | *save |
