HTML 5 is oddly abscent. Though speed tests are kind of cool-relevence and
what used in the reel world might be slightly more telling--though I
think someone had put a few numbers up on the list a few months ago.

Not clear what you mean. HTML5 is a markup language, not a programming
language. You can't use it to perform computations.

Larry Lessig apparently has two interesting views on AE
1 - Anonymous contributions: He's not bothered by them, mainly because
not even the AE candidates will know who they are, thus not having power
over the candidate.
Re: Lessig's anonymity
Nice. It is commonly known that interpreters are slower than compilers but
it is interesting to have measures and a ranking.
Thanks

Came across this a few weeks about exploiting QR codes. Somewhat
entertaining cat and mouse story and something to be aware of when scanning
them with your phone...

From the link, it seems that C is the fastest programming language by
a very wide margin.

C's in third spot, just behind C++ and Fortran. There shouldn't be
much difference between C and C++, and there isn't. Fortran has almost
always produced more efficient code, although one should be able to
approach Fortran performance in C and C++ with a little care.
