We embrace Daylight saving time with a special call-in edition of Coder Radio. Topics include a chat with one of the developers behind the online JavaScript assembly emulator, the encroachment of DRM in everyday life, and why Mozilla’s Persona has been put out to pasture and the difficult problem that creates for developers.

The post Persona Non Grata | CR 92 first appeared on Jupiter Broadcasting.

Some have called JavaScript the “Assembly Language for the Web”. Is this an insane argument, or is there some truth that we should acknowledge?

Plus we lay down the first blocks in our new open source Jupiter Broadcasting community app.

Then Michael shares a great tool for beginners or longtimers looking to refresh their skills.

And we’ve got a big patch of your feedback, and much more!
