The blog post is about `requestAnimationFrame`. I found the code had problems and posted the following: [BEGIN] Your code works in two browsers and modifies the global/window object by assigning to `requestAnimationFrame`. It';; probably break forwards compatibility. What happened to "don't modify objects you don't own?" Also check out the draft <a href="http://webstuff.nfshost.com/anim- timing/Overview.html#introduction">"Timing control for script-based animations"</a>. Your code uses `Date.now` which is not backwards compatible, either. Why not just use `+new Date` or `new Date().valueOf()` ? Elsewhere: http://paulirish.com/2011/requestanimationframe-for-smart-animating/ "Note: I am using 'requestAnimFrame` here because since the spec is still in flux, I don't want to make a straight polyfill, yet." [END] I posted casually like I'd do with Asen or Kangax or anybody, really. I linked to relevant docs and blogs. It's the sort of thing that I shouldn't have to be complaining about on a forum. It's silly, but I just can stand for this sort of elitism where I'm banned from posting a purely technical comment on a blog. And again, this is not the first time it's happened to me. -- Garrett -- To view archived discussions from the original JSMentors Mailman list: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ To search via a non-Google archive, visit here: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected]
