If they aer so concerned about saving space, maybe they should get rid of the title bar and the little mozilla icon in the corner - that is a hell of a lot less useful than the URL bar.
They did that in 4, they moved the tabs to the title bar
but it really is a simple way to tell you what you are looking at.
So is the page title. One of these is redundant
Hah! Those losers! We're going to get rid of it entirely because we're awesome like that! Here's some made-up BS to justify it even though approximately zero users want this!
If you RTFA, you'd see that that's exactly not what is being suggested. He's suggesting the the URL bar be replaced with a hidden-by-default generic command box which can do much more than the URL bar (kind of like Chrome's Omnibar)
.NET code with native interop works fine in mono on windows. The main issue is the same as for native interop for Java: the native code needs to be available for the OS you are running on. If the.NET code was written well, it is possible that all you would need is native libs for your OS. Obviously, this doesn't apply if the native code referenced is part of the Win32 API, but then the problem isn't the use of native interop and is still identical to the problem of Java apps with native interop
That said, P/Invoke is vastly better than JNI. If I wanted native interop, I'd use C# over Java every time.
Until a method to break out of the Hypervisor became possible, gaming on Linux on a PS3 (via OtherOS) was pretty hard, as there was no access to the graphics hardware. Now? You need to "illegally" jailbreak your PS3 to install Linux at all.
Sony sold me a console containing their private key in its hardware. This private key is needed to run all the software on the PS3, and must therefore be distributed in some form with the console. How is accessing numbers stored in hardware that I own and then publishing said numbers somehow illegal? Don't I own these TPM modules that I bought from Sony as part of this PS3 console?
"Uncore" is (AFAIK) Intel-speak for functions within the CPU package that are not part of a CPU core (including the memory and PCI-E controllers in current-gen Intel CPUs)
So maybe this company wants developers who are truly committed to open source, or cross-platform solutions, vs. just committed to pulling down a paycheck.
If that's the case, then his elaborate explanation was not needed. A simple one like "we don't hire.NET developers because we care about FOSS, and want people working for us to care as well" would suffice.
One desirable quality of a JIT is that it will automatically use the full capabilities of the CPU, where possible. I don't know whether the JVM uses SSE, or if it's even possible for it to do so (I'd assume it is, though).
However, it is probably impossible to determine whether it is. The point of a high-level language like Java is that you don't have to worry about the underlying architecture.

Wait what? YouTube has had HTML5 fallback for some time now, AFAIK

The PS3 no longer runs Linux; I can no longer go out and buy a new one that does, regardless of whether or not I update the firmware.

Last time I checked, .NET exe files compiled on windows are able to be run on mono on linux... usually
And me having just spent my last mod point. Mod parent up people.
There are differences with this case:
Until a method to break out of the Hypervisor became possible, gaming on Linux on a PS3 (via OtherOS) was pretty hard, as there was no access to the graphics hardware. Now? You need to "illegally" jailbreak your PS3 to install Linux at all.

I was under the impression that salted MD5 (with a good salt, in a well-designed system) is reasonably secure.
They've set up enough of their own. It's good to see them getting a taste of it themselves.
Wait... the Catholic Church still thinks that D&D and video games are satanic?

That sounds more like Apple, apart from the source code part
I assume they use a different word to differentiate it from functions outside the CPU core (eg. southbridge features like SATA controllers)
Set the CPU governor to "powersave" eg.
# cpufreq-set -c 0 -g powersave
# cpufreq-set -c 1 -g powersave
"Uncore" is (AFAIK) Intel-speak for functions within the CPU package that are not part of a CPU core (including the memory and PCI-E controllers in current-gen Intel CPUs)
Where "extra work" is installing the Windows drivers that Apple provide?

Except that that doesn't necessarily apply to .NET

Mod parent up. I approve of this pedantry.
You can get vertical tabs in Chrome (albeit without the nice tree effect) via about:flags
They're part of the reason why the universe is winning.
so... you want the smartphone manufacturers to restrict something, at least?
There's a fine line between "should be able to" and "legally allowed to", but it makes all the difference.
