Some results from the Ioke experiment It’s been a bit over 18 months since I first released Ioke in the wild. During this time I’ve always been specific about Ioke first and foremost being a language experiment. I changed many things to see what would work and what would not. I thought I’d take stock and take a look at a few of these decisions and how I feel about them now. Ioke never got a huge user base, of course, so most of these impressions are based on my continued working on the language, ... #Ioke #Experiment #Language #ProgrammingLanguage #Results

Former Facebook Executive Adam D’Angelo Confirms New Google Social Networking Effort Shared by louisgray
Yup.

He said so last weekend, but his tweet has since been deleted. Now early Facebook executive and Quora cofounder Adam D’Angelo says — on Quora, of course — that Rose was right.

Facebook Snags the Guy Who Built Google's Chrome OS Shared by Rav
:O
The battle between Facebook and Google just got even hotter with the news that the social network has hired Matthew Papakipos, the man who started and lead both the Google Chrome OS project and the Chrome WebGL GPU hardware project for hardware-accelerated graphics. Both projects "are in good shape," Papakipos said in a Tweet this morning, so he's leaving to join the project team at Facebook.

Rumor: Google to Take On Facebook With “Google Me” Shared by louisgray
Of course, sharing this via Google Reader to Google Buzz exposes the discussion to people within Google who can confirm or deny parts of this rumor... so that seems silly. All I know is that Google has a lot of pieces, and it would be great to tie them together in a fantastic way. Rick Klau is working hard on Profiles (or this?) and Buzz needs to be out of GMail... the sooner the better. We shall see.

Apple patentuje powierzchnie zmieniające swój kształt Pisałem już jakiś czas temu o wniosku patentowym Apple opisującym obudowę z mikroskopijnymi dziurami, w których zamontowane miały być równie małe diody, pozwalające na wyświetlanie wirtualnych przycisków na obudowie urządzenia, czy to iPoda, iPhone czy np. MacBooka. Tym razem Apple zgłosiło do urzędu patentowego pomysł podobny w idei, jednak jeszcze ciekawszy, powierzchnie zmieniające kształt z płaskich na wypukłe.

Google: Trzeba poprawić protokoły sieciowe Urs Hölzle, wiceprezes Google ds. technicznych stwierdził, że wszelkie wysiłki mające na celu przyspieszenie działania Internetu będą daremne, jeśli nie wprowadzi się zmian w używanych protokołach internetowych.
Według testów Google, typowa strona internetowa ma średnio 320 kB, a średnia prędkość połączenia internetowego to 1,8 Mb/s. W tej sytuacji czas ładowania strony powinien wynieść 1,4...

Do LESS with Less.js Dmitry Fadeyev has a great writeup of less.js, the implementation of the LESS styling language in JavaScript itself.
Traditionally you would write a less file such as:
PLAIN TEXT
CSS:
@brand-color: #3879BD;
.rounded(@radius: 3px) {
-webkit-border-radius: @radius;
-moz-border-radius: @radius;
border-radius: @radius;
}
#header {
.rounded(5px);
a {
color: @brand-color;
&:hover {
color: #000;
}
}
}

and then you... #CSS #FrontPage #JavaScript

SeaMicro drops an atom bomb on the server industry Coming out of stealth, SeaMicro is dispelling the Silicon Valley myth that you can’t innovate in hardware anymore. The startup is announcing today it has created a server with 512 Intel Atom chips that gets supercomputer performance but uses 75 percent less power and space than current servers.
It sounds impossible. But if SeaMicro can deliver, then it will deal a big blow to server vendors such as Dell, Hewlett-Packard and IBM. And it could del... #VentureBeat #Chips
