Every year I'm left in the lurch wondering when tea will get its due.

The <model> element will provide a way to easily present 3D content in a web page without any scripting.

<modelsrc="asset/example-3d-model"width="400"height="300"></model>

New WebKit brings easy 3D-models to web.

Как же японцы читают китайские стихи? По-китайски? Самое интересное, что нет.

Японцы читают, конечно же, по-японски - переставляя слова согласно японской грамматике и добавляя японские окончания, которые пишут азбукой. Если китайский текст длинный, то сбоку приписывают специальные символы, которые подсказывают, в каком порядке нужно читать иероглифы по-японски.

Electron and React Native Desktop are supposed to be a revolutionary new way of making desktop applications. Except they are not, and they eat up all the memory you have and still ask for more. They constantly crash and have no value over a native desktop application what so ever - well, perhaps with the only exception that now a 2 year old baby can make something shiny that you can click on with your mouse.
