We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge as made us cynical; our cleverness, hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery, we need humanity. More than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost. [...]

Hannah, can you hear me? Wherever you are, look up Hannah! The clouds are lifting! The sun is breaking through! We are coming out of the darkness into the light! We are coming into a new world; a kindlier world, where men will rise above their hate, their greed, and brutality. Look up, Hannah! The soul of man has been given wings and at last he is beginning to fly. He is flying into the rainbow! Into the light of hope, into the future! The glorious future, that belongs to you, to me and to all of us. Look up, Hannah. Look up!

 

Criamos a epoca da velocidade, mas nos sentimos enclausurados dentro dela. A máquina, que produz abundância, tem-nos deixado em penúria. Nossos conhecimentos fizeram-nos céticos; nossa inteligência, empedernidos e cruéis. Pensamos em demasia e sentimos bem pouco. Mais do que de máquinas, precisamos de humanidade. Mais do que de inteligência, precisamos de afeição e doçura. Sem essas virtudes, a vida será de violência e tudo será perdido. [...]

Hannah, estás me ouvindo? Onde te encontres, levanta os olhos! Vês, Hannah? O sol vai rompendo as nuvens que se dispersam! Estamos saindo da treva para a luz! Vamos entrando num mundo novo - um mundo melhor, em que os homens estarão acima da cobiça, do ódio e da brutalidade. Ergue os olhos, Hannah! A alma do homem ganhou asas e afinal começa a voar. Voa para o arco-íris, para a luz da esperança. Ergue os olhos, Hannah! Ergue os olhos!

Photographs in this collection have been produced by Aimee ODea, Justin Thach, Kenneth Chiu, Liz Dolinar, and Ashley Vink at the request of UC Berkeley Anthropology 136e class, at the request of Michael Ashley for the UC Berkeley Anthropology 136e class, Spring 2011. This collection documents the walking path from Embarcadero Bart station to Pier 39 then to North Beach area, with the intent to gain more of a spacial understanding of different heritage sites located in San Francisco.

 

Photographs in this collection were captured on Monday April 11, 2011, between 7:00 AM and 10:00 PM Pacific Time, under cloudy and overcast conditions. Photos were captured primarily with a Nikon D80 with some supplementary documentation photos by a Panasonic Lumix. The photos were developed in Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3.

  

Pier 39(37° 48’ 30’’ N, 122° 24’ 56’’ W), located between Alcatraz and North Beach in Fisherman’s Wharf , is a major tourist attraction that has history dating back to the Gold Rush. During the Gold Rush, Chinese immigrant in their Junk boats fished and provided shrimp, oysters, and salmon to the miners. Later Italian fisherman joined and fished for Dungeness Crab which they sold along the beaches. Still to the present day, Fisherman’s wharf has remained home base for San Francisco's fishing fleet. Today the area considered one of the busiest and well known tourist attraction in Northern California. Popular spots located near by include Pier 39, San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park, the Cannery Shopping Center, Ghirardelli Square, a Ripley's Believe it or Not museum, the Musée Mécanique, the Wax Museum at Fisherman's Wharf, Forbes Island, bars and restaurants that serve fresh seafood.

 

Description written by Ashley Vink, follows Alonso C. Addison’s proposed virtual heritage metadata format in his chapter "The Vanishing Virtual" in New Heritage: New Media and Cultural Heritage, edited by Kalay, et al., and published by Routledge in 2007.

Juror Statement: It’s always a pleasure to serve as a juror for such national exhibitions like the Center Galley’s Developed Work exhibition for the 2010 National Photography Fellowship Competition. The process of looking at each submission opens my eyes to a variety of exciting trends developing in the field of photography. The photographic styles ranged from portraiture to landscape, abstract to sculptural, and conceptual to dreamlike. Overall the dominant theme was a introspect view of the United States’ social political landscape. The seven artists I chose to include in this exhibition reveal the diversity in photographic theme and style seen throughout all the entries.

   

Larry Robinson’s work cleverly stood out in the submissions with its wit, absurdity and pop culture references. The juxtaposition between the projected images of food in the installations with their contrasting domestic or natural environments speaks humorously to America’s infatuation with food. Roger Boulay’s photographs of sculptural stacks of magazines speak beautifully to America’s consumption of media. Jennifer Colten’s eerie surveillance-like video stills of uninhabited places tap into the more anxiety prone culture Americans have developed since the September 11th attacks. Eric White’s examines the border between Mexico and the United States with particular focus on the security fences, surveillance stations and checkpoints. Through portraiture, still-life and landscape, Zach Abubecker observes Ethiopian immigration in the United States raising issues of assimilation and cultural identity. Mary Farmilant’s striking interiors of abandoned hospital spaces perhaps act as a depiction of the current demise of the heath care system. And lastly, Pete White conflates death notice photographs with weather reports in an attempt to illustrate the social political tension generated by death.

   

The caliber of the work submitted was stellar and I would like to recognize the following artists that I was unable to include in this exhibition: Brook Reynolds for her pictures of closed gas stations; Rylan Steele for his interior office pictures, and Amanda Pfister for her typography of closed car dealership throughout the United States.

Star, North Carolina

Listed 9/9/2013

Reference Number: 13000699

The Star Historic District meets National Register Criterion A for commerce and transportation. Developed at the intersection of the Durham and Charlotte Railroad and the Aberdeen and Asheboro Railroad, the town of Star served as a regional commercial center for eastern Montgomery County and western Moore County from its incorporation in 1897 to the mid-twentieth century. The railroad facilitated the logging and agricultural industries in and around Star. Beginning in 1911, the Country Life Academy brought nearby students to the town and by the 1930s, the textile industry in Star was attracting workers from nearby communities. The railroad, school, and mills fueled Star's growth by creating a demand for services, including stores, banks, barbers, and repair shops. The Star Historic District also meets National Register Criterion C for architecture. The prosperity of the early twentieth century town is reflected in the presence of ornate turn-of-the-twentieth-century Queen Anne-style houses and Romanesque Revival-style commercial buildings; constructed from 1896 to 1915, they stand out among the most elaborate examples of residential and commercial architecture in Montgomery County. The architecture of Star also illustrates its place as a working-class town with modest, pyramidal-roofed housing constructed in the 191 Os and 1920s and housing built in the nationally-popular Colonial Revival and Craftsman styles in the 1920s and 1930s. Also present in Star are an Art Deco-style bridge built in 1929, Colonial Revival churches from 1924 and 1953, and plainly detailed commercial buildings and Ranch-form houses erected in the 1940s and 1950s.

The Rise

Regency Square Mall was originally developed in the mid-to-late 1960s. The project was initiated by Regency Centers, a now-powerful retail real estate trust based in Jacksonville that was at the time just getting started.

The mall was constructed at a cost of $12 million upon a giant clump of sand dunes, and opened its doors to the public in 1967. It featured three anchor stores – JC Penney, Furchgott’s, and May-Cohens – as well as an adjacent movie theater.

Regency quickly became a hit, owing a lot of its success to its location. At the time the Arlington area was among Jacksonville’s fastest-growing neighborhoods, and Regency Square Mall was by far the closest retail hub for its residents as well as shoppers coming into town from the beaches. It also helped that the mall was built in an era where shopping malls were quickly becoming a ubiquitous part of life in America.

The surrounding area experienced a development boom, with shopping centers, car dealers, office parks, and restaurants popping up all along neighboring stretches of Atlantic Blvd. Some of this was a result of continued growth in Arlington, but much was the direct result of traffic brought in by Regency’s success.

By the late ’70s, Regency was one of the country’s most active malls, and completely dominated the Jacksonville shopping landscape. The only “nearby” mall that could claim to compete with Regency’s offerings at the time, Orange Park Mall, was over 24 miles away.

Naturally, the mall’s ownership wanted to capitalize on this success, so around this time plans were developed to double the size of the mall at a cost of around $30 million.

Bizarrely, developers opted to tack on the additional space to the opposite side of May-Cohens, creating two wings divided by an anchor store. Ivey’s and Sears became the anchors of the newly-opened west wing.

Shortly thereafter, the east wing would get upgrades in the form of an AMC theater and a large food court.

All the while, business continued to boom at Regency Square, perhaps more so than ever.

The Fall

There’s an old proverb based on a Bible passage that states, “Pride comes before a fall.”

In the mid ’80s, Furchgott’s announced their merger with Stein Mart. While most of the chain’s stores were converted to the Stein Mart branding, Regency’s operators proudly believed the brand to be too low-class for their mall and opted to pursue a replacement anchor.

At the turn of the decade, Regency faced stiff new competition in the form of The Avenues. This new two-story mall, constructed along the intersection of Philips Highway and Southside Blvd., offered a slightly more upscale shopping experience and threatened to lure customers from the then-thriving Baymeadows area away from Regency.

Around this same time, cracks began to show in the foundation at Regency. The mall changed ownership, being sold off to Chicago-based General Growth Properties.

A couple of anchor stores began a decade-long game of musical chair. Dillard’s moved to yet another new wing, vacating the former Ivey’s, which would then become a Montgomery Ward. May-Cohens would become a Gayfer’s, then later a Belk.

Most significant, however, was the rapidly-growing issue of crime. By the early ’90s, yearly crime reports at the mall reached quadruple digits. Over the following decade, the mall rapidly developed a reputation among locals as “the sketchy mall”.

The mall’s management made attempts to fix their reputation, but for the most part the damage had been done. The addition of a JSO substation in 1998 did little to curb the crime epidemic, and the addition of an aggressively-enforced mall dress code the next year only served to alienate its remaining customers.

It seemed clear that despite the mall’s shortcomings, its management felt as though it was still an elite retail hub. In other words, they let pride take the place of rationality.

Another round of renovations in the late ’90s brought an upgraded food court and theater. When Montgomery Ward left in 2001, management pursued big-name anchors rather than simply looking to fill the vacated spot. As a result, Ward’s spot stayed empty for five years.

In 2005, the opening of the St. Johns Town Center made Regency’s survival even less likely. The Town Center now catered to the upscale crowd, with The Avenues’ savvy management team rolling out renovations around the same time to keep up appearances.

Meanwhile, Regency’s crime rate grew worse and vacancies began piling up within its corridors.

By the late 2000s, it was clear that the mall was dying. Crimes at Regency outpaced those at The Avenues and St. Johns Town Center combined.

The mall’s west wing became a ghost town. Dillard’s converted their location to a clearance center. A shooting in 2008 involving an off-duty JSO officer only served to further solidify the mall’s reputation as a bad place. Many locals refused to shop at the mall by themselves, or after dark.

By 2014, the mall’s occupancy rate slipped well under 50%. Belk, which occupied the anchor space that separated the east and west wings, announced that they planned to bolt to a standalone store further down Atlantic Blvd. General Growth Properties, finally accepting that they wouldn’t be the ones to save the mall, put it up for sale in 2013, and got rid of it just a year later.

When new ownership took over, they opted to close down the west wing and move any remaining tenants over to the east wing in hopes of saving at least one part of the mall.

In early spring small maple flowers are transformed in a matter of days into winged seeds. I caught this maple tree in the action as its tiny red ovaries began to enlarge into seeds.

 

Maple flowers lack petals but they provide wonderful color when they are massed on the tree, reminiscent of the color maples provide in the winter.

The Triumph Tiger 110 was a British sports motorcycle first made by Triumph at their Coventry factory between 1953 and 1961. Developed from the Triumph Thunderbird the T100 first appeared in 1954. Although it was supposed to be the sports model of the Triumph range the Tiger 110 was fitted with the enclosed panels from the smaller twins in 1961 which earned it the nickname 'bathtub' and made it look outdated, so was replaced by the Triumph Bonneville.

The Triumph Tiger 110 650 cc OHV Twin was Triumph's fastest production motorcycle to date, developed for the American market which wanted a higher power output. The T110 first appeared in 1954. Originally produced with a cast iron cylinder block and head, this was quickly replaced with a light alloy cylinder head with special airways to improve cooling and austenitic iron valve seat inserts. The external oil fed pipes were also replaced with internal oilways via the pushrod tubes.[1]

The Triumph Tiger 100 was named because it was capable of 100 mph (160 km/h), so it was an obvious marketing idea to call the new bike the Tiger 110 - although technically the best one way speed obtained by The Motor Cycle magazine in tests was 109 mph (175 km/h) (with a strong tail wind) - but the speedometer was reading 114 mph (183 km/h), so there was a margin of error.

By 1961, the Tiger 110 was no longer Triumph's fastest model, the dual carburettor Bonneville T120 having taken its mantle. Triumph added the enclosed panels from the Twenty One which, resembling an upside-down Victorian slipper bathtub, earned the bike the nickname 'bathtub

World Speed Record

 

On 5 September 1962, at Bonneville Salt Flats American racer Bill Johnson secured the world land speed record on a heavily modified Triumph T110 with a top speed of 224.57 mph (361.41 km/h).This success led to the development of the Tiger T110's successor - the Triumph Bonneville.

The Indy, code-named "Guinness", is a low-end workstation introduced on 12 July 1993. Developed and manufactured by Silicon Graphics Incorporated (SGI), it was the result of their attempt to obtain a share of the low-end computer-aided design (CAD) market, which was dominated at the time by other workstation vendors; and the desktop publishing and multimedia markets, which were mostly dominated at the time by Apple Computer. It was discontinued on 30 June 1997 and support ended on 31 December 2011.

Retrocomputing (a portmanteau of retro and computing) is the use of early computer hardware and software today. Retrocomputing is usually classed as a hobby and recreation rather than a practical application of technology; enthusiasts often collect rare and valuable hardware and software for sentimental reasons. However some do make use of it.[1] Retrocomputing often gets its start when a computer user realizes that expensive fantasy systems like IBM Mainframes, DEC Superminis, SGI workstations and Cray Supercomputers have become affordable on the used computer market, usually in a relatively short time after the computers' era of use.

 

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retrocomputing

 

Con il termine retrocomputing si indica una attività di "archeologia informatica" che consiste nel reperire, specialmente a costi minimi, computer di vecchie generazioni, che hanno rappresentato fasi importanti dell'evoluzione tecnologica, ripararli se sono danneggiati, metterli nuovamente in funzione e preservarli.

Weymouth originated as a settlement on a constricted site to the south and west of Weymouth Harbour, an outlying part of Wyke Regis. The town developed from the mid 12th century onwards, but was not noted until the 13th century. By 1252 it was established as a seaport and became a chartered borough. Melcombe Regis developed separately on the peninsula to the north of the harbour; it was mentioned as a licensed wool port in 1310. French raiders found the port so accessible that in 1433 the staple was transferred to Poole. Melcombe Regis is thought to be the first port at which the Black Death came into England in June 1348, possibly either aboard a spice ship or an army ship. In their early history Weymouth and Melcombe Regis were rivals for trade and industry, but the towns were united in an Act of Parliament in 1571 to form a double borough. Both towns have become known as Weymouth, despite Melcombe Regis being the main centre. The villages of Upwey, Broadwey, Preston, Wyke Regis, Chickerell, Southill, Radipole and Littlemoor have become part of the built-up area.

King Henry VIII had two Device Forts built to protect the south Dorset coast from invasion in the 1530's: Sandsfoot Castle in Wyke Regis and Portland Castle in Castletown. Parts of Sandsfoot have fallen into the sea due to coastal erosion. During the English Civil War, around 250 people were killed in the local Crabchurch Conspiracy in February 1645. In 1635, on board the ship Charity, around 100 emigrants from the town crossed the Atlantic Ocean and settled in Weymouth, Massachusetts. More townspeople emigrated to the Americas to bolster the population of Weymouth, Nova Scotia and Salem, Massachusetts; then called Naumking. There are memorials to this on the side of Weymouth Harbour and near Weymouth Pavilion and Weymouth Sea Life Tower. The architect Sir Christopher Wren was the Member of Parliament for Weymouth in 1702, and controlled nearby Portland's quarries from 1675 to 1717. When he designed St Paul's Cathedral, Wren had it built out of Portland Stone, the famous stone of Portland's quarries. Sir James Thornhill was born in the White Hart public house in Melcombe Regis and became the town's MP in 1722. Thornhill became an artist, and coincidentally decorated the interior of St Paul's Cathedral.

The resort is between the first modern tourist destinations, after King George III's, brother the Duke of Gloucester built a grand residence there, Gloucester Lodge, and passed the mild winter there in 1780; the King made Weymouth his summer holiday residence on fourteen occasions between 1789 and 1805, even venturing into the sea in a bathing machine. A painted statue of the King stands on the seafront, called the King's Statue, which was renovated in 2007/8 by stripping 20 layers of paintwork, replacing it with new paints and gold leaf, and replacing the iron framework with a stainless steel one. A mounted white horse representing the King is carved into the chalk hills of Osmington. Weymouth's esplanade is comprised of Georgian terraces, which have been converted into apartments, shops, hotels and guest houses. The buildings were constructed in the Georgian and Regency periods between 1770 and 1855, designed by architects such as James Hamilton, and were commissioned by wealthy businesspeople, including those that were involved in the growth of Bath. These terraces form a long, continuous arc of buildings which face Weymouth Bay along the esplanade, which also features the multi-coloured Jubilee Clock, erected in 1887 to mark the 50th year of Queen Victoria's reign. Statues of Victoria, George III and Sir Henry Edwards, Member of Parliament for the borough from 1867 to 1885, and two war memorials stand along the Esplanade.

In the centre of the town lies Weymouth Harbour; although it was the reason for the town's foundation, the harbour separates the two areas of Melcombe Regis ( the main town centre ) and Weymouth ( the southern harbour side ) from each other. Since the 18th century they have been linked by successive bridges over the narrowest part of the harbour. The present Town Bridge, built in 1930, is a lifting bascule bridge allowing boats to reach the inner harbour. The Royal National Lifeboat Institution stationed a lifeboat at Weymouth for the first time on 26 January 1869. A boathouse was built with a slipway by the harbour and is still in use, although the lifeboat is now moored at a pontoon.

I visited this Fort on the 4th August 2017 and was surprised by the layout and the interesting exhibits found here at this unusual and well maintained Fort. Nothe Fort is a fort in Weymouth, Dorset, England. The fort is situated at the end of the Nothe Peninsula, which juts eastwards from the town of Weymouth, and Weymouth Harbour, into the sea to the north of ex-military Portland Harbour. The fort is located next to Nothe Gardens. The coastal defence was built between 1860 and 1872 by 26 Company of the Royal Engineers to protect Portland's harbour, which was then becoming an important Royal Navy base. Shaped like the letter D, the fort's guns covered the approaches to both Portland and Weymouth harbours. The design included bomb-proof casemates for cannons arranged around the circular sides, and deep magazines beneath the straight, landward side. The fort played an important role in World War II, when the harbour was used as base by the British and American navies.

In 1956 the fort was abandoned, and in 1961 the local council purchased it. It is now a museum. The fort remains one of the best-preserved forts of its kind in the country, and the fort and its outer gateway has been a Grade II listed building since June 1974. Its fusee steps have been Grade II listed since November 2000. These are located within Nothe Gardens, linking the car park area down to the Nothe Parade – the quay of Weymouth's Harbour. The inclined tramway and steps were built circa 1860. The three flights of steps include a low flanking wall of rendered brick, on which are placed wrought-iron plate rails, forming an inclined tramway for trolleys with double-flange wheels. It was constructed for hauling trolleys transporting ammunition, spares and stores from the quay to Nothe Fort. In October 1978, the Nothe Fort, tramway and searchlight battery at The Nothe, also became scheduled under the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979 as they appeared to the Secretary of State to be of national importance

Using pioneering new technologies in Superfoods and nutrition, CFTRI has developed amazing new products which are on show at CFTRI stall at Pragati Maidan:

   

· Chia and Quinoa based Chocolates and Laddoos;

 

· Omega-3 enriched ice-cream;

 

· Multigrain banana bar

 

· Fruit juice based carbonated drinks.

 

New Delhi, 24th November, 2016: CSIR-Central Food Technological Research Institute (CFTRI), the premier national institute for food technology is exhibiting a range of new agri-products now grown in India, called Superfoods that bring health and nutrition best practices to everyday eating and living to the common man. The exhibits by CFTRI at the Trade Fair at Pragati Maidan in New Delhi both impress and surprise with the range and scope of their utility and potency.

 

The Indian population is presently going through a nutrition transition and there is an increase in incidence of diabetes, impaired heart health and obesity while there is still rampant malnutrition in the nation.

 

Keeping in mind an effective solution needed to address these concerns, CSIR-CFTRI is working on bringing Superfoods to the Indian population. CFTRI works on various facets of food technology, food processing, advanced nutrition, Superfoods and allied sciences. Superfoods are foods which have superior nutrition profiles which upon regular consumption can help improve health and wellness of the consumer.

 

CFTRI has developed the agro-technology for growing Superfoods viz. Chia and Quinoa in Indian conditions. Chia is the richest source of omega-3 fats from a vegetarian source and Quinoa has excellent protein quality and low glycemic load carbohydrates. Comprehensively, Chia and Quinoa have potential to improve population health and both blend seamlessly into traditional food preparations.

 

CSIR-CFTRI also infuses the spirit of entrepreneurship in their students. One of the doctoral students after completing her academic program started her own technology provider start-up company, Oleome Biosolutions Pvt Ltd. In a global first, CSIR-CFTRI in collaboration with Oleome, has developed a 100% vegetarian, Omega-3-enriched Ice cream called “Nutriice” using Chia oil.

 

CSIR-CFTRI is also in the process of the final phase of testing of diacylglycerol (DAG) oil, a unique cooking oil that has “Anti-Obesity” functionalities. One can consume it as part of daily regular diet and while the oil is available as energy but does not get stored as fat in our bodies. The final phase of human clinical trial is presently under progress.

 

CFTRI has also designed and developed snacks with advanced nutrition designs to support the nutrition needs of growing children. These have been implemented in the aganwadi levels to complement the existing government mid-day meal and will be scaled up soon. The products, such as Nutri Chikki with spirulina, rice beverage mix, high protein rusk, energy food, nutri sprinkle, seasame paste and fortified mango bars have been well received by the children and the anganwadis alike. Multi-grain Banana bar is a new addition to in this product portfolio.

 

Another exciting area of multidisciplinary research being done at CSIR-CFTRI is on nanotechnology, food technology and nutrition. Nanomaterials are known for their characteristic properties and CSIR-CFTRI is working on the use of nanoparticles for various applications. One of our interesting developments is the design and development of food packaging material with nanoparticles with antimicrobial and antioxidant properties to improve shelf-life of processed foods.

 

CSIR-CFTRI is also working on “Smart Foods” to answer specific needs of the consumer.

On December 8th, 2012 P4K and EPN launched the Farmers of the Future program officially in Gueriguinde.

ZoomCharts at DevClub.lv: Developing a Javascript SDK

 

On January 15, 2015, ZoomCharts Co-Founder and CTO Viesturs Zariņš presented at DevClub.lv - a community of Latvian IT specialists that gather monthly and host free talks, presentations, and events to allow the local IT community to share knowledge, network, and communicate. Zariņš discussed the unique challenges faced in developing JavaScript SDK.

 

Here is a brief overview of his PowerPoint presentation on ZoomCharts, the world’s most interactive data visualization software that will support all your data presentation needs with incredible speed.

 

What is ZoomCharts?

 

What defines ZoomCharts advanced data visualization software? It is NOT another HTML5 charts library. It is:

 

- Interactive

- Fast

- Touch enabled

- Supports big data

 

A long time ago

 

DOS 6.2 allowed for:

 

- 320x240x8bpp

- Direct access to pixels on screen

- Assembler for performance

 

Today, the Web has finally caught up in the graphics department. Now, we have access to:

 

- Multiple browsers and rendering technologies

- Multiple resolutions

- Performance that varies by browser and device

 

Development setup:

 

- We write in JavaScript

- Commit to GitHub

- Build system in JavaScript

- Debug in Chrome

- Run automated tests

- Like WebStorm (and Vim)

 

Graphics:

 

Canvas (fast)

SVG (slow)

WebGL (>50%)

 

Interactive animations:

 

Zoom in and out of the graph, drag and drop data, all with your mouse or trackpad.

 

Graceful degradation:

 

High FPS (frames per second) lets you scale graphics with low image degradation.

 

Third party libraries:

 

- Raphael

- Hammer.js

- Leaflet

- Moment.js

 

Challenges:

 

- Responsive design: layouts can shift and look nice on desktop screens vs. not so nice on vertical, mobile screens

- Big screen resolutions: uses devicePixelRatio for sharp rendering, but no hardware acceleration beyond 2048x2048

- Safari compatibility: with 100% CPU, input events are blocked and browser locks up; strange code offers fixes

- HTML on canvas: DOM is slow; basic HTML markup must be parsed and rendered manually; text caching helps

 

Support:

 

- Process: TrialSupportBuy

- 1 day issue resolution

- #1 Tell me what I did wrong

- #2 Can you do…

 

Testing:

 

- Automated tests on every GIT push

 

Automatically:

 

- Compare images

- Record performance

- View errors in console

 

Interactive testing:

 

- Next step: record and playback

 

BrowserStack:

 

- Interactive mode

- Automated: Selenium API

 

Debugging:

 

Chrome Developer tools (F12)

 

- Debugging

- Profiling

- Timeline

 

Remote debugging available: developer.chrome.com/devtools/docs/remote-debugging

 

Future:

 

- More charts

- Extension API

- Memory allocation tracking

- WebGL

 

We are looking for statically-typed language:

 

- Error checking

- Performance

- Superior minification

 

- Easy to write and read

- Easy to call from JS

 

Building

 

Custom build script:

 

- Compile

- Minify

- Extract documentation

- Embed customer data
