Henri Sivonen?s Unofficial Q&A About the Discontinuation of the XHTML2 WG

blogdig.net — 2009-07-06T18:39:00-04:00

Like Simon Willison, I very much enjoy Sivonen’s distinction between “marketing” XHTML and technical “XHTML”: There are two meanings to XHTML: technical and marketing. The technical kind (XHTML served using the application/xhtml xml MIME type) is a formulation of HTML as an XML vocabulary. The marketing kind (XHTML served using the text/html MIME type) is processed just like HTML by browsers but the authors attempt to observe slightly different syntax rules in

blogdig.net — 2009-07-06T18:31:00-04:00

Matt Mullenweg responds to Daniel Jalkut’s argument “that the GPL does more to harm collaborative development than it does to help it”: I?ve never encountered a serious client who chose not to use WordPress because it was GPL-licensed, and I think it?s hard to argue that WordPress?s license has had a dampening effect on its adoption, given its success over competitors with widely varying licenses. I think we have an incredibly strong third-party extension, plugin, and

Snow Leopard in Depth: Grand Central Dispatch

blogdig.net — 2009-07-06T18:30:00-04:00

At the beginning of the decade, Intel was imagining that by 2010 it would have processors with over 1 billion transistors running at a clock speed of 20GHz. As we move into the second half of 2009, the reality is that we will soon have 3GHz mobile chips with four cores on them and 2010 will likely see 4GHz desktop chips with six and eight cores. Ultra-fast processors running at clock speeds over 4GHz have just been too expensive to power — and to cool off. So the other solution is to have

Apple’s Tilt to SD Cards Looking Smarter Than Ever

blogdig.net — 2009-07-06T16:30:00-04:00

Last month I commented that Apple’s substitution of Secure Digital Card (SD) slots for ExpressCard slots in the 15″ MacBook Pro made considerably good sense. It would be nice to have both, but the ExpressCard support wasn’t being heavily used, according to Apple, while SD was growing more popular. The 13″ MacBook Pro also gets an SD slot where the preceding unibody MacBook was slotless, so it’s pure value-added there.However, as I learn more about the Secure
