Muxtape rewritten in HTML5 is about a quarter of its previous length (and complexity) and uses no plugins. Other than Firefox requiring ogg versions of the audio all the assets are the same; it detects iPhone-like devices and turns on the requisite extra features. Add it to your home screen and relaunch it, when it runs full screen and responds to rotation (especially on the iPad) I bet you can’t distinguish it from a native app. It even eats up that YouTube embed. Running in Mobile Safari has other advantages, too. Since it’s privileged by Apple to run in the background, you can listen to music and use pretty much any other app simultaneously. For now this is only possible with HTML5. Enjoy the album, it’s really great. Francis plays at Bowery Ballroom tonight. I love this. Finally someone understands the real benefit of html5.

I was trying to remember this the other day for a friend who is a new Mac owner. Could not do it for the life of me. Thanks.

That’s a new one for me.

Insight: So much complexity in software comes from - (37signals)

This is why I try and code with loose coupling and high cohesion. Which basically means that one module doesn’t affect another one and yet they are allowed to work together.

The separation of model, view and controller in most frameworks is an excellent example of a highly cohesive system with loose coupling. It’s understanding high level concepts like loose coupling and high cohesion which separates good programers from great ones.

You can learn more about loose coupling and high cohesion here.

So much complexity in software comes from trying to make one thing do two things.

Sadly I think your right. I love disqus.
