Yeah, MP4s are the tool to go now, especially since you can autoplay them almost anywhere (I'm looking at you Apple).

But still, we still can't use them in mail yet. So having an image to play is definitely interesting - for email - for now.

This is awesome! Love the equal size comparison. I've wrote a few years ago an article about BPG which also had support for animation - https://eek.ro/why-bpg-will-replace-gifs-and-not-only/

Does AVIF have any support for animations?

Glad to finally see an royalty-free format starting to get traction.

Nice! Good job! A bit too long to read everything, but liked the intro.

One issue though. I've reached the end and had no idea what to do from there (aka you don't have a scrollbar OMG). First time I've used Page Up to go back up on a site :)))

How did this get on the home page?

Bigger companies also do that, Vodafone was compressing all images that went through their 3G service, and a ton of ISP inject / redirect HTTP traffic to tell you to pay the bills

Instead of the Youtube video, I think a step-by-step guide and feature introduction would be way better. Something like http://introjs.com/ but otherwise the game seems interesting.

:D

Also, 12h turns seem incredibly long :(

Re:Show HN: JSON to JSDoc Converter on Wednesday April 06, 2016 @08:22AM (#11438248)
That's an invalid JSON, and I didn't manage to make the validation and notify the user if the JSON is invalid or not. That's why it doesn't do anything :)

For surely but unfortunately no one tried to manually optimised the code, the current javascript decompiler is compiled from C using emscripten
Hi Dan, thanks for the feedback! Unfortunately Twitter's permission scoping isn't the greatest in the world, the only thing we can do is be either Read Only or Read & Write. We have a feature on our platform that let's you invite friends, and that feature needs the Write Privilege, since we can't be Read on Sign-Up and Write on Friend Finder, we have to be Write from the beginning.

Same invite friends feature uses the google contacts, but Google allows us to ask for additional privileges when we need them, we just forgot to take them out of the request for the Sign-Up, we just fixed that. Thanks! :D

We'll also look into Chrome's password manager issue, and fix that as well :D

Besides all of this, what do you think of the site? :)

Oh, this is really cool, have you thought of packaging it for mobile with motion events? :D
