Sorry, I meant the code for this .app specifically

Is this open source?

I would love to play with this

I think you've massively devalued an entire people based on the actions of their government...

Let's not forget the great value and results of CS education in the US:

- spying for pretty much everybody, regardless of location

- drone guidance systems to kill people unlawfully

- missile systems for air strikes on countries purported to have WMDs

- millions of $ spent on silly apps that arguably do nothing to improve quality of life, whilst millions suffer and die of starvation

Do you really know enough about North Korea's tech community to say that "More likely, these students will go on to make software for less-than-ethical purposes"?

Though looking more closely, they're not quite the same project.

Here's a similar project by a colleague of mine:

If you're OK with screwing over Safari/IE users, you'll have pretty good support. You could engineer a browser-based fallback to gif, but honestly I wouldn't bother.

I'd imagine we can create an impetus to support it if we actually used it more

I don't follow your comment, but I should have been more explicit:

gif is a waste of bandwidth compared to a soundless webm

Why bother with gif these days, and why in the browser?

I really love the diagrams; very beautiful and good palette.
