Informative. Would that Environment Ministries worldwide were cognisant of scientific facts and use the power invested in them to progress #climate actions. #BanFossilFuels #NoMoreCoal #NoMoreGas #MoreForests #Ecology

THe adds in this are very very annoying. I understand why they are there but if Climate Research was funded adequately, this kind of info would be free to all without the need for commercial support.

it seems for now you need a french VAT registration to register (?) - or is my french zu schlecht?

the good people of the internet have poured forth a fount of #OpenDoc resources

@marianoguerra shared "Why OpenDoc failed, and then failed 3 more times" https://instadeq.com/blog/posts/why-opendoc-failed-and-then-failed-3-more-times/

@crabl resurfaced "WWDC 'Janus' Demo" from 1996: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vGcVH6qyoqA

And @andy_matuschak gathered gems from @Gregmaletic and @geoffreylitt

any good resources out there on #OpenDoc particularly it's successes and failures and any "design language" innovations?

not-so-secret #masterplan: we're re-building #OpenDoc

@daringfireball

#Platforms, not #Tools

Unless tools start to take a life of their own and threaten the platform itself. True since the early days of #Apple when #Borland, #Microsoft, and others overpowered #MPW and threatened its #Mac platform in insidious ways. Ill-fated #OpenDoc is another example where #X #fileformat #compatibility was critical. Yet another — #Netscape and #IE #browsers until they threatened the #Mac by #neglect or #incompatibility. And of course, #open #web on #iPhone.

@billstclair @spolsky Are you thinking of #Apple’s #OpenDoc from the 1990s?

#JXR
- https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/project/jpeg-xr/
- 1999년에 내놓은 HD 이미지 포맷
HD 이미지 표준 논의가 산으로 가고 Nvidia가 HDR 스크린샷을 JXR 이미지 저장하기 시작하면서, Microsoft도 그제서야 자사의 JXR 규격 지원 위한 개발을 시작했다. 몇 년에 걸쳐 이제 Microsoft 사진 뷰어에서는 제대로 잘 보인다.
전세계의 프로그래머들은 더 나은 #JXL 혹은 #WebP2 써야 한다며 갑론을박 하고 HD 이미지 지원에 관심이 없다. #OpenDoc 보는 기분이다.
전세계의 컴퓨터 이용자들은 이러지도 저러지도 못하고 드라이브에 고용량 이미지 쌓고서 혼자 보는 중이다.
오픈 소스 커뮤니티는 JXR 그것은 아무것도 아니라며 JXL 얘기한다. 크롬은 둘 모두 미지원이다.
#HDR 쓰지 말란 얘기지?

📝 Why #OpenDoc failed, and then failed 3 more times?

Summary of reasons found around the web and comparing them with other implementations of the same concept:

* #ActiveX
* #KParts
* Bonobo

And a short mention of #WebComponents
