That is one of the first videos I've seen in a long time where I've thought "wow we can do that now?"

A couple days ago we were posted on HN here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8353485 and we learned that people wanted shirts with actual code! (despite, in my opinion, more aesthetically pleasing blocks design) so in the spirit of iterating quickly, we've added support for actually printing the code on the shirt :).

Bravo. Ignore the haters who haven't run into thread issues and thus believe no one else can possibly run into these issues. "Just change the subject!" Clearly these people have never sent a bulk email, or considered the fact that others may use email differently from them. Really tired of this mentality of "I don't have complete information but I think I'm great thus I'm just going to assume you are clueless".

If you're a web game developer reading this you should also know that WebSockets, XHR, and anything built on top of those technologies (socket.io etc.) are TCP based. Only WebRTC DataChannels and flash are able to do UDP based communication in the browser.

Worst CAPTCHA Ever 13 years ago

You know, maybe it's because they just wanted to slow down legitimate users for some reason, and spam wasn't a big problem. Ok I'm just trying to be optimistic.

It's true that it supports binary / reliable transport already but there are some very annoying not-to-spec issues. As a library developer, if I added code to support it, it would just go to waste because in BugZilla they've already patched but not pushed changes to these issues.

[dead] 13 years ago

it's not at all. we've been working on the same thing essentially

ICE/STUN (which is used by WebRTC and thus PeerJS) support NAT traversal in all cases but a pair of symmetric NATs, which means some single digit percentage of connections will not work. For those cases, WebRTC/PeerJS support using a TURN server which proxies the data, not ideal but it allows the library to work.

I don't know why everyone is so critical of Zynga trying to hide this news among the Apple stories -- what is the argument for not doing so? "Hey guys, lets make sure EVERYONE hears that we're closing down offices and laying off employees, this is going to be important"

Would you have acted differently?
