09/17/2004 12:40 PMEvery now and then, I come across some news that is just plain
odd. This would have to be one of those stories.
If the military can build a missile that can fly through your window
and build satellites that can read your license plate... why can't you
get a washing machine that helps tell you how best to wash those silk
PJs? Well, now you can.
A new washing machine developed by the Dai Nippon Printing Company can
read special smart tags on clothing and instruct the user the best
method with which to wash the clothes. Not only that, but the LG-built
unit can keep track of how many times a particular item has been
washed, what material it is made out of, and can even send an email or
SMS when your load of laundry is complete.
Just what will they think of next?
(My guess is probably a smart dryer.)

protocols such as Bit Torrent.
The researchers claim download times are between 20-30 per cent
faster, using their network coding approach, than on systems that only
code at the server, and between 200 and 300 per cent faster than
distributing un-encoded information.

Quitting Smoking
Quitting Smoking
07/21/2004 04:53 PMDave Winer writes
about his experience quitting smoking, and it reminds me of my
experience quitting. Many years ago I was a smoker, and it took a
couple of tries before I quit successfully.
My first attempt at quitting was doomed to failure. See, I noticed
that my cravings were stronger when my friends and I went bar-hopping,
so I told myself I'd only smoke when I was drinking. The result? I
drank more. Duh.
So I quit cold turkey, and that was well over a decade ago. I've
smoked one time since then, about three years ago - not a perfect
record, but not bad. The thing that made it easier to quit was that I
stopped smoking right after the end of a relationship gone sour. I
figured as long as I was giving up one bad habit, I might as well give
up smoking at the same time.

just as willing to quit their job now than they were at the height of
the boom years, when jumping ship seemed like a monthly option for
some workers. Many people will jump for just a little bit more money,
but good working conditions and the belief that the company is going
somewhere helps. Of course, many companies have been treating their
employees terribly lately, believing that they have no other options -
but that may be changing.

Safari 1.2 bug seen here
02/12/2004 11:24 AMWe seem to have inadvertently revealed a bug in Safari 1.2 -- and we
think we know specifically what Safari is doing wrong. The bug
currently makes oatmeal of some of our layout elements. If not fixed,
it could discombobulate sites that are much more important than ours.
Safari RSS
Safari RSS
07/01/2004 01:46 PMI haven't had a chance to talk about this, but I thought I'd again
start by briefly clearing up a point of confusion. Safari RSS is not
the name of the entire Safari browser on Tiger. It is the name of the
RSS/Atom feature in Safari itself. If you pull down the About
information in Safari on Tiger, you'll see that the version is
2.0.

Safari 1.3
Safari 1.3
04/16/2005 01:24 AMThose of you running Panther can now update to 10.3.9. This update
includes Safari 1.3 and new versions of WebKit, WebCore, and
JavaScriptCore that contain thousands of improvements we've made to
the engine since Safari 1.2.
What you are getting is all of the new standards support, new
WebKit capabilites, site compatibility fixes and performance
optimizations that are also present in Safari 2.0 for Tiger. The
layout engines for the two are virtually identical.
Here are some of the highlights:
Page Load Performance
Safari 1.3 loads pages overall 35% faster than 1.2 as measured by
IBench. In addition to improving the overall page load, Safari 1.3
will display content sooner than 1.2 did, so that subresources don't
hold up the initial display of the page.
JavaScript Performance
We have substantially improved the performance of the JavaScript
engine in Safari. I encourage you to check out Safari 1.3 on this
benchmark for example to see the improvement relative to 1.2.
HTML Editing
Safari 1.3 supports HTML editing, both at the Objective-C WebKit API
level and using contenteditable and designMode in a Web
page. The new Mail app in Tiger uses WebKit for message composition.
You can write apps that make use of WebKit's editing technology and
deploy them on Panther and Tiger.
Compatibility and Security
Compatibility and security are our number one priority in WebCore, and
Safari 1.3 has many important compatibility fixes. For example,
percentage heights on blocks, tables and cells now work much better in
Safari 1.3. min/max-width/height support has been added. More of the
table-related CSS properties are now supported. DOM methods like
getComputedStyle are now supported.
The DOM Exposed
The entire level 2 DOM has been exposed a public API in Objective-C.
This means various holes have been filled in Safari's DOM level 2
support. In addition to exposing the DOM to Objective-C, the JS
objects that wrap DOM objects can also be accessed from Objective-C,
allowing you to examine and edit the JS objects themselves to inject
properties onto them that can then be accessed from your Web page.
XSLT
Safari 1.3 on Panther now supports XSLT. 10.3.9 includes libxslt, and
Safari uses this excellent library to handle XSLT processing
instructions it encounters in Web pages.
Plugin Extensions
For those of you writing WebKit apps, a new Objective-C WebKit plugin
API is supported that lets you put Cocoa widgetry into the Web page
more easily. In addition enhancements to the Netscape Plugin API
(made in conjunction with Mozilla Foundation) have been implemented
for plugins that require cross-browser compatibility.
Did I mention it's really really fast? :)
In case you're curious about differences between the Tiger and
Panther versions of the engine, they mostly have to deal with
frameworks that changed underneath WebKit. For example we have new
faster image decoders on Tiger (that also handle PNGs correctly), so
you'll find that Tiger fixes some of the PNG gamma issues that will
still exist on Panther. In addition the new decoders are incredibly
fast and are now run on a separate thread on multi-processor machines
on Tiger.
The network layer has also been improved on Tiger, so this may be
another source of differences in behavior between the two operating
systems. Overall, however, it's likely that content and applications
you develop with WebKit will behave identically on the two operating
systems.
Let us know what you think.
Safari 1.1
Safari 1.1
10/28/2003 11:08 PMSafari 1.1 is here. Those of you who picked up Panther can take it
for a spin. This release is big step forward from 1.0, chock full of
bugs fixes, improvements and UI refinements.
As far as new WebCore features, here's a few highlights:
(1) Better standards support. You'll find fixes for positioning bugs,
overflow bugs, floats, tables, gzip support, generated content using
::before and ::after, DHTML. You name it, we've improved it.
(2) Speed. We're still fast, and we're only going to get faster.
(3) CSS2 support. In addition to all of the bug fixes to be more
standards-compliant, we also added support for CSS2 properties like
text-shadow and new display values like inline-block. Try using
text-shadow in conjunction with ::selection. It's cool. :)
(3) Safari on Panther supports rgba values in CSS for specifying
border, background, foreground and shadow colors.
(4) Support for the CSS3 opacity (using -khtml-opacity) property.
Make entire blocks and inlines transparent without resorting to
transparent PNGs.
(5) A complete implementation of the XUL box model. Safari on Panther
supports the complete XUL box model, including horizontal and vertical
boxes, the ability to flex, and the ability to reorder content and
reverse content. If you're building canned content that you control
using WebKit, you'll find a whole new range of layout possibilities at
your disposal. Need to create dynamically sized headers and footers
and flexible center content? The XUL box model can do that. Need to
center an object within the viewport? The XUL box model can do that
too.
And in case you're curious, here's what we've already got working
post 1.1 in WebCore that you can look forward to:
(1) Support for the title attribute using tooltips
(2) The ability to tab to all controls in a Web page and to manipulate
them from the keyboard.
(3) Support for table border collapsing.
(4) Support for the CSS cursor property.
... and a whole lot more ...
Enjoy the upgrade and as always send us your feedback (trackbacks
preferred). We're listening.

10/29/2003 12:12 AMSafari 1.1 is included with the new release of Mac OS X, Panther.
From Dave Hyatt's list of Safari 1.1 features:
A complete implementation of the XUL box model. Safari on
Panther supports the complete XUL box model, including horizontal and
vertical boxes, the ability to flex, and the ability to reorder
content and reverse content. If you're building canned content that

do that. Need to center an object within the viewport? The XUL box
model can do that too.
With Microsoft's alternative to XUL seemingly a few years away, are Apple looking to
beat them to it with an implementation that's compatible with
Mozilla?
