While it's a nice thought, it didn't actually close to even attempting to answer the question.


i apologize about not specifically addressing the question.

developing a rapport doesn't happen overnight. i don't have a great specific example to point to, but i'm confident the relationships that i've cultivated on twitter will prove fruitful when i need them the most.


There is also the Austin Javascript meetup that @getify puts together. Anybody else planning on going?


jQuery sells.


odds are, in this instance its because it looks nice on a resume.


demand a full refund.


Bazaarvoice is hiring in Austin, TX.

They just rented out a movie theater (alamo drafthouse) for all of us to see the Social Network.

Also it's a cool company. http://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2010/10/01/bazaarvoice-ramps-up-...


I hardly call the IMs "Damning" considering how he's continued to grow into one of the most powerful people in the tech industry.


If you live in America then yes, you are fortunately out of touch.

*edit, cannot type


Europe, nl.


It would probably be pretty confusing, especially considering most people don't read much text on the page(like the text that might say "Correct this...")


I'm not sure about the mechanics of Chrome, but aren't new Chrome windows different processes? thus having their own share of CPU?

Trying to cram everything in a single thread of execution seems like it would have been a mistake.


Now that would be clever.

Though playing the demo with one eye on Task Manager shows only two processes (for the whole duration) - one hovering mostly around 50-60% CPU load, another at 0-5%.

Checking this with my CPU intensive demos, this looks like normal Chrome behavior (two processes, one with high load). New process seems to spawn only for new tabs.

So it doesn't seem like such optimization was used.


I think it's something like one process per "connected" set of windows/frames (those which can talk to each other and thus are expected to be single threaded), plus one per Web Worker (V8 is not threadsafe)


Do separate iframes have the same characteristics as separate windows?


While I agree with your second statement, your first is misplaced. There is a huge difference between "I'm an engineer, can't design, here's my resume(even my HTML5 resume)" and using oddly timed fade-ins, slides, text reflection, etc. etc.

If you try to put that much design in a resume, you get judged as a designer.


2 days late; not sure if you'll still get a chance to read this. But, I'll bite.

As someone who's hired (good and bad) engineers in both UI/UX and back-end disciplines, my first impression of it was "Yeah, it's not pretty, but he does not allege to be a designer." At that point, I checked out the source code. It was not spectacular, but he did communicate an working grasp of the technology he professed to understand.

If this resume was judged in a biased lean towards UI/UX, my opinion is that you'd be passing up a potentially hard-working and dedicated employee. With a little help from a designer, this guy could possibly do great things.


thanks. I originally built it so I could ditch Firefox for my personal browsing. Looking forward to any feedback you might have.
