DHTML Goodness
DHTML Goodness
10/28/2003 11:08 PMI've been working on implementing incremental repainting in Safari.
With the exception of some hacks that I threw in for overflow:hidden
elements, Safari 1.0 will repaint the entire visible area of a Web
page whenever any object changes size. (Turn on paint flashing using
Quartz debug and you'll see what I mean.)
This is obviously a big problem for DHTML sites.
Anyway, I've fixed this problem in my own build (which makes DHTML
easily 5-10 times faster for affected pages), and now I'm looking for
tests. What I'm looking for are any pages/tests you've got that do
really cool dynamic stuff with DHTML and CSS. I want to know about
pages that mostly work in Safari now. The point of this exercise is
not to hear about current DHTML bugs, but to make sure I haven't
regressed any behavior, so please stay on topic.
Post links to cool demos that do anything from dynamically changing
clip to sliding elements around on screen to animating using all sorts
of different techniques (changing margins, position, overflow,
background, etc.).

A lovely article on Gaydar...
A lovely article on Gaydar...
12/08/2003 09:17 AMThere is a quite charming article on the Independent's site today -
Confessions of a Gaydar junkie - which is about one of the
world's most successful (and mostly unsung) pieces of social software:
Gaydar. Like most truly
dedicated social software enthusiasts, I have - of course - forced
myself to investigate the service, although with a certain amount of
disappointment and embarrassment I feel compelled to confess that I've
never actually met anyone off it. I suppose that means that my
dedication to the cause of computer-mediated social interaction has
some limits. Either that or I'm too embarrassed.
Anyway, the article is particularly good value, which I suppose you
might expect since Mark Simpson wrote it. Mark - you will recall -
wrote the rather irritating/insightful book Anti-Gay. He
writes of his experiences:
"Moralists who protest at gay e-promiscuity should be
encouraging the Government to provide gays with grants for permanent
broadband connections, since the internet not only keeps them off the
streets and out of the parks, it turns all that messy sexual energy
and appetite into ... typing. Gays have become the unpaid secretaries
of desire, filing and cataloguing human weakness. Promiscuity is now a
form of bureaucracy. Tedious, eye-straining, number-crunching slave
work. Don't bother feeling jealous, all you sexually frustrated,
non-online non-gays: internet cruising is its own form of
punishment."
Well obviously, I'm not really into a position to comment on all
that stuff, being at least as inadequate at pulling on a site
dedicated to the process as I appear to be in real-life (is it the
beard, do you think?). But there are some other aspects to the
piece which I think are interesting in terms of the relationship
between the internet as a place for social interaction and as a means
unto itself. I'll give you an example to end with - which although
perhaps presented in rather absolutist terms is certainly entertaining
enough to be worth reporting as fact:
"You see, the real efficiency of online dating, just as
with internet anything, is not the way it delivers you lots of
pointless sex without leaving the house, but the way that it ensures
that you will be spending more time on the
internet."

Exclusive: interview with Mr. Sun about
the OS X Weather Dashboard widget
Exclusive: interview with Mr. Sun about
the OS X Weather Dashboard widget
06/24/2005 07:20 PMOne of my favorite Dashboard widgets is the Weather widget. It's been pretty hot and sunny for the last
few weeks here in NYC so I've been seeing quite a few pictures of my
favorite yellow celestial object depicted on the widget. I recently
had a chance to sit down with Mr.
Sun, a long-time resident of both our solar system and the
blogosphere, and I asked him about his Weather widget representations.
Here's a portion of our interview:
Jason: How did the Weather Dashboard widget project come
about?
Mr. Sun: Funny story. I'm kicking back, combustin' some
rhymes, and this spacecr
aft approaches me. I'm about to throw a flare upside its
flimsy-ass hull, when I notice it is sending a message out into the
heliosphere.The damn thing is in Apple format, and I have Windows - so
I have to download a special viewer. I finally decode the thing, and
it's from Steve Jobs about an "insanely great" idea. I vaguely knew
about him, because I'd been doing some advance work for Satan on how
best to burn Gates for eternity. I'm a special consultant, basically.
Anyway, I figured -- what the heck? So, that's how it started. Look,
what network are you with again? I don't recognize you.

Jason: Is this the type of work you want to be doing at this
point in
your 4.5 billion year career?
Mr. Sun: Look, I'm not going to radiate sunshine up your
you-know-what. I'm struggling. Back in the day, I had a great agent --
Nicolaus. Not
the brightest guy in the cosmos, but totally devoted to me. He made me
feel like I was the center of the universe. I remember I worked with
Frank Capra on Our Mr.
Sun. Just between you and me, that guy was a little too sunny even
for me -- ringing bells and angels wings -- whatever. Then, there was
the "Pee-wee incident" involving an unfortunate
choice I made in a public setting. I know it's no excuse, but I've
warned you people to wear those glasses. I was
in a slump. I started to get mean, sloppy, and pathetic. I wasn't combusting properly -- I
had
bad gas. So yes, I agreed to lend my likeness to the OS X weather
widget. Is it where I want to be right now? No. Is it an honest gig?
Yes, I think so. I've been thinking about starting a blog anyway;
someone needs to let those other Sun Shadys know
they are just imitating.
Jason: But do you really need any more exposure? You've got
the most prime advertising position in the world -- 5 or 6 billion
people a day can see you by just looking up -- what more are you
looking for?
Mr. Sun: Eyeballs. Is that all you Internet types ever think
about? You want to know who had a lot of eyeballs on him? Mahir. Do you want to be that guy
for even one minute? I KISS YOU !!!!! You ask me how I can want more.
Let me tell you a story that may help you understand. When I was
younger, I watched Daedalus and his son
fly just beneath me, soaring out of captivity on wings made of
feathers stuck with wax to a flimsy wooden frame. Drunk with freedom,
Icarus looked directly at me. I felt the panic of his watchful father,
but I was mesmerized by his youthful passion. I met his gaze. He moved
toward me and the rest they call myth. I made a vow that day to never
stay still. Yes, I am fixed in the sky -- but not at my core. The fire
that sustains me is fueled by the memory of what it took for Icarus to
make his way to me, and the debt I owe for my part in his fall to
earth. I can't repay that debt from 93 million miles away, but sitting
on your desktop, I can at least start. I am also told the Internet is
basically just one gigantic Porn Delivery Device, and I haven't had
any good jacking material since the Soviets from Mir jettisoned their
garbage. Did you ever say where you are from? Was it the Wall Street
Journal? I'd love to have one of those stencilled sketches of me.
Jason: The photography in this shoot looks more candid than
in past shoots by NASA, ground-based astronomers, or vacationing
amateurs. In one photo, it looks like you're crying and in another you
appear to be surrounded by a haze of marijuana smoke. Are we finally
seeing the real you?
Mr. Sun: Looks can be very deceiving. In this case, however,
they are not. Last year, I cried nonstop for three of your earth
months. I cried because I burn anyone who comes close to me. I cried
because I shine alone in the blackness of space. I cried because just
once, I'd like to feel pretty and I know that will never happen. As
for the haze of smoke around me, I am made of
gas. If I wasn't churning gas around, you'd all be as frozen as Ted Williams
head, so maybe you should think twice before demoting me from
life-sustaining star to orbital stoner. Look, I've been around the
block a time or two when it comes to humanity. At first, you were
fearful of me. Later, you worshipped me as a god. Now, you ask me
these cynical questions. Fine, no problem. I'll be around to see the
cycle repeat itself a few thousand more times. I'm just a star, an
ordinary star. Deal with it.
Thanks for joining us, Mr.
Sun.

The Rocket Widget
12/30/2004 02:12 PMNow I'm not much of a drinker, but I do imbibe from time to time.
Last night I got a wild hair and picked up a six-pack of Guinness Draught
Bottles, (when I drink beer, I like to taste beer) and cracked one
open when I got home. I didn't bother reading the label or anything...
a good beer is a good beer, right? Pop the top and enjoy. The part of
the label I did read was that you don't need a glass to get the full
experience with this stuff, so bottoms up!
But when I got to the bottom of the bottle, I found something more
than beer in there.
"What the ????"
A little plastic thingy that looked to be part of the filling
equipment was rattling around inside. By this time I'm looking pretty
closely at the label for a phone number to call and complain. (I'm not
big on product liability lawsuits, but I've got to admit, the thought
of a fat settlement check did cross my mind.) The label didn't really
say anything about it, but did have a web address, and there I got the
straight poop.
Enjoy the authentic taste of GUINNESS anytime, anywhere thanks to
another clever little invention, the "rocket widget."
Once the bottle is opened, the "rocket widget" creates the famous
surge and forms the signature creamy head right inside. Every time you
take a drink from the bottle the "rocket widget" refreshes the surge
so that you get the perfect pint taste with every sip. Ingenious.
Turns out they've had this feature in their bottled brew since 2001
(shows how often I get out!) Neat idea. And thinking back, I do
remember having a bit more froth whilst sipping than I'd usually
experience with a bottle of beer. I'll have to pay more attention on
my next one.
