If Tom could change the ad company, maybe earning money here would be easier (and more flexible), then the better talent wouldn't consider this site, just another advertising pool for their YouTube channel.
I agree, only people who get front paged get a chance to earn some real money.
... what do you think it will be in 5 years?
I would be like "meh...".
No - seriously - Newgrounds is pretty good!

It's a great place to find help, don't get me wrong, but it's just not somewhere I want to go to help people; I prefer having a one-on-one approach where I can have a discussion with the person (such as on the NG BBS).
But talking about StackOverflow is wayyy off topic. :)
Stackoverflow (in my opinion) gives a wide range of answers. The reputation points are there just to make it more encuraging for people to give good answers/research. The person who asks picks out the one that helped them :) People can also change and update answers in the future to make them more up to date.
Anyways... how about these?

What if he needs to stop the sound in the middle of playback? Or adjust the volume?
This is pretty irrelevant either way because the OP asked about playing music and not sound effects.
He can call stop playing the sound... and I know it was irrelevant to the question, but I'm just adding it to be nice. I remember having a lot of trouble finding a way to play sound effects in my recent HTML5 and this was the best fix I found.
As a reference material (e.g. for things like compatibilities, like what you linked to) I sort of agree with you as it's pretty much impossible to get wrong, but everything they may reference is done in an inferior method when compared to modern tools (e.g. the Can I Use website I linked). The problem with W3Schools is their tutorials which are outdated and contain laughably terrible coding practices (look at their JavaScript or PHP tutorials for examples).
If you genuinely believe W3Schools to be a quality resource then you're either a beginner programmer, never actually looked at W3Schools, or are an incompetent fool.
I can agree on that :-) share some tips if you want to tutorials and Q/A sites like Stackoverflow.

Because then he can play multiple sound effects without delay when a new one is played :)
Also please don't link to W3Schools; that place is absolute garbage. It's unlikely that even they could fuck up something as simple as referencing support for HTML5 features but you still may as well use Can I Use because it's easier to read, more comprehensive, and isn't W3Schools.
There is nothing wrong with W3Schools.
To OP: try asking questions on Stackoverflow.com - good quality answers!
I agree. People who are obese/fat/chubby just eat too much food. And maybe they splugre themselves with a little candy/cake etc. every other day. Nothing wrong with eating unhealthy, just keep it to the weekend. I have friends who are extremly skinny and they just eat smalle amounts of food. People who are fat have the urge to eat more to survive.
I used to be a little bit chubby myself, but I just started working out, walking to school, eating more healthier foods and kept candy and stuff to the weekend.
note: Excluding people with fast metabolism and those who works out a lot. Also, people with some kind of medical condition.
If you're going to play multiple sounds, use this code...
function playSound(name) {
var sound = document.createElement("audio");
sound.src = name;
sound.autoplay = true;
}...and just call it like this:
playSound('soundname.wav');Also, have a look at the file support for the diffrent browsers!

Opinions?
Beautiful. Very minimalistic and nice. A clear and straightforward design.
Is this something you're looking for?

This one is real simple:

If you have prior experience with programming it should be fairly easy to start with. Just start by getting to know the languages by starting some fun projects. This is one of the best ways to really get to know a programming language (in my opinion). When you hit problems etc... you learn more. And yeah, read tutorials online.
Probably WIndows 7. I haven't tried Windows 8 yet, though.
Haha, old people hate smartphones ... and tablets... and computers...
You can look taller by wearing shoes that lift you a little bit up, become lean, keep your head upright and stretching. Heard that jogging, swimming and basketball wil strech you out a bit, too.
dont stress
Lol, I think probably small guys will prefer small girls and tall guys wouldn't care much.
I think Simpsons have gone out ideas and just it's just become old... they're trying, but most of the episodes today are mainstream stuff with no quality.
I'm not saying every episode nowadays suck, but you know what I mean.......

Would love to play that game!
i don't think stressing will make you taller. many tall people i know is lazy and they sleep a lot. might be a co-relation? honestly i don't know, but eat normal and get enough sleep and be social... go out and play with your friends - enjoy being being young :P
also, 5'9 is not small. be glad youre not 5'7 or smaller :D you will probably become 5'11-6' :):)

The season finale of The Walking Dead airs the exact same time as the season premier of Game of Thrones. What a goddamn pickle that is.
Watch the one with the highest priority. Record the other and watch it right after :)
Running, playing games and watching a good movie.
Mac.
Probably the best and problem-free computer/OS I've had...
Love it... but it costs a lot where I live.

Even if you came close to being able to convert AS to JS/HTML5 it would never be perfect, and it would no doubt be buggy and have awful performance issues. The examples they provide are incredibly basic examples (aka, detect a key press), nothing more advanced than that.
Writing things in one language isn't interchangeable with another by running it through some convertor.
I agree, but it works pretty good and it's still in a early developer phase. It does not support many of the elements Flash has. Hopefully it will become much better. (They add more and more...)
Though, games work really good afterward - I haven't seen any diffrence. Just some lag on older smartphones, but on iPad and newer it works great :)

@smulse
Ok? What do you mean? There's an app online called Swiffy by Google. You can convert Flash games into HTML5.
I know about Swiffy, but will you guys release a version where you can convert Flash games into HTML5?
Any spesific music you like?
Ah, well... listen to Avicii and Deadmau5 :)
