HTML5 Media
Flash is dead.
At least, that’s what we’re told: thanks to the introduction of the HTML5 video and
audio elements, Flash is now dead.
Of course, we know this statement isn’t true: Flash will have its place in web pages for
many years to come. However, thanks to the new HTML5 media... | | HTML5: The Missing Manual
At first glance, you might assume that HTML5 is the fifth version of the
HTML web-page-writing language. But the real story is a whole lot messier.
HTML5 is a rebel. It was dreamt up by a loose group of freethinkers who
weren’t in charge of the official HTML standard. It allows page-writing practices

Packet Guide to Routing and Switching
For a long time, I was very happy building Ethernet networks, working with switches
and then moving to 802.11. It took awhile, but eventually I realized that the world of
interconnected networks cannot be reached with Layer 2 alone. In addition, as you
spread your wings from the Layer 2 broadcast domains, you encounter the wonders of... | | Codermetrics: Analytics for Improving Software Teams
Is there a rational way to measure coder skills and contributions and the way that
software teams fit together? Could metrics help you improve coder self-awareness,
teamwork, mentoring, and goal-setting? Could more detailed data help you make better

Addictive, frustrating. Fun, boring. Engaging, repetitive. Casual, demanding.

felt by real-time strategy games players like me. I remember spending countless hours
playing brilliant games such as EA/Maxis’s SimCity and SimCity 2000,... |

Data Mashups in R
Programmers may spend a good part of their careers scripting code to conform to commercial

JavaScript has come a long way from its humble beginnings in 1995 as part of the Netscape browser, to the high-performance JIT interpreters of today. Even just five years ago developers were blown away by Ajax and the yellow fade technique; now, complex JavaScript apps run into the hundreds of thousands of lines.
In the last year,... |

THIS BOOK GREW OUT OFMY EXPERIENCE OF WORKING WITH DATA FOR VARIOUS COMPANIES IN THE TECH
industry. It is a collection of those concepts and techniques that I have found to be the
most useful, including many topics that I wish I had known earlier—but didn’t.
My degree is in physics, but I also worked as a software... | | Migrating Applications to IPv6
How badly will IPv6 break your application? What do you need to consider to make
your application “IPv6-ready”? What questions should you ask?
