This appeared on Makezine last month. And it got me thinking: what would be the best way to do this with a webcam?

pixel = (added pixel value of all frames) / total frames?

All that we see or seem. Is but a dream within a dream.

I'm not talking about Apple being right or wrong here. I just noticed that the Apple fanboy's are fans because of the quality of Apple products. And it learned me a lesson...

In all the Apple fuzz there is a good lesson about quality I guess.

Apple fan's love Apple products because they are good. They look great. They work great. They feel like they were made for you.

For me the lesson is: create better products. Make people love your product. Make it for them.

Earthshaking like the Segway promise?

Do you use Buzz and Chat? Slow for me (Netherlands, Buzz & Chat turned off).

Does anyone know if there are cheap laser engravers on the market? Most of them I've seen are 5000 USD or more.

Wiki page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-end_audio_cables There is a nice quote on it: "no other product is as shrouded in hype and mystery as the audio cable!"

I also like high quality audio. But most of the time just a good thick electric copper cable will do the job. Also saves you a lot of $.

If we are lucky they will fix it before 2011. http://www.php.net/~scoates/unicode/render_func_data.php?x=0 Complete 70.70

I'm wondering: would it be possible for a compiler to check if parts of the javascript code could run on another core?

For fun I created a 3D-render-engine in javascript + canvas (path tracing from lightsource). And I'm amazed how javascript speed differs in different browsers. Opera 10.50 and Chrome are like 3 times faster than others. But multi-threading would increase the speed even more (improving my program skills also...): www.thuijzer.nl/jsrender

I agree. But that's not the case with this PHP framework (as far as I can tell). They use 'MVC' as structure for there code (or as you call it: prescriptive). And then suddenly a lightweight framework is not that lightweight anymore. So again I agree with your descriptions of the web as MVC, but MVC in a PHP framework only... I still believe that's just a hype word.

BTW I don't want to start a flame war about MVC. I just got some question marks about using a PHP 'MVC' framework.

You can, but it will not update the view directly as MVC does. You always need to refresh the page for that. In Java or Flex (or with Ajax) the view is updated by the model. That is MVC. In PHP this is just not possible. So imho it is a hype word people don't understand. Most (PHP) frameworks that use 'MVC' are just more bloated than Apache + PHP (a single handler with .htaccess could be nice!).

Another framework based on MVC. But MVC is just not possible in PHP. Maybe with Ajax it is, but mostly it is a hype people don't understand. Let Apache (or any webserver) be the controller and you have the most lightweight framework there is.
