50% of what?
Is there a way to just kill an offending tab? Pages like this take over my old-ish hardware so completely that trying to close a tab in the normal way is impossible. It is a design flaw for Firefox to allow any webpage to have this much power. Maybe a setting that forbids any page from consuming more than X% CPU for t time without explicit permission? Killing the whole FF process is far from ideal. I'd be willing to switch browsers if another better handled this issue?
A group of people engage in N rounds of betting, where there is one winner per round. Each round winner is entitled to $X from all other participants for that round. Find simplest (ie fewest number of) settle-up payments at the conclusion of the N rounds. It's always harder to figure this out in real-time than it seems like it should be. Mobile app ftw.
