RMS falls ill
Richard Stallman, suffered from health problems during a talk he was giving this afternoon in Barcelona, eventually suspending the rest of his talk.
This is counter to some reports on social media that he apparently had a heart attack.
Stallman, 59, speaking today at the North Campus of the Polytechnic University of Cataluna on the dangers of a digital society. He was about halfway through his talk when he began to feel the effects of what was reported in the Spanish press to be high blood pressure or hypertension.
Modern Developer's Weponry
What is your first thought when someone mentions Internet Explorer? No, I'm not going to write that here... Anyway, if you are in any kind web related business, you know what I mean. Due to it's troll-like nature, M$ has managed to cripple standardisation and progress of the Internet by several years. That being said, I'm not going to lament anymore but instead, I will try to give you a brighter outlook. With HTML5 already out and CSS3 at "almost there" stange, we are anxious to use all the new stuff like gradients, shadows, tranformations, etc... Majority of modern browsers have accepted HTML5 standard and are already catching up with fast CSS3 development. However, we know there's that old ball-n-chain called Microsoft Explorer. So, what do we do? Worry not, my friends, if you haven't found these modern weapons already, I strongly suggest you to check out these links:
