Pronounced Fossple - it stands for Fuck Off Simple Programming Language. Many years ago I cam up with the notion of VSPL - very simple programming language. The problem was that it was not simple enough! More recently I took some of the ideas from VSPL and implemented them in SFPL - Sound Field Patch Layout. Now SFPL has proven to be much simpler. It also grew in incorporate a fully immutable programming model.

http://nerds-central.blogspot.com/2011/09/i-love-chromebook.html OK, a my F***k Off Simple Programming Language ideas continue. I seem to have picked up a virus and spent quite a bit of last night running a fever. My brain being what it is - somes of the results were dreams and semi-conscious states considering programming language design. Now - I was quite pleased with FOSPL chapter 1, but is was clearly too complex. I need something even simpler and with less syntax if possible. All that parenthesis is a bit too Lisp like.

Chromebook - Dawn Or Dusk? | Nerds Central

http://nerds-central.blogspot.com/2011/10/chromebook-dawn-or-dusk.html Is the Chromebook fighting for its life or at the beginning of a bright and exciting day in the light? Chromoting, not much else matters. This is the thing which will either make or break the Chromebook. Living in the cloud is great, but jumping to the cloud straight from the desktop is just impossible for many individuals and all established organisations.

What Do You Use Your Chromebook For? | Nerds Central

http://nerds-central.blogspot.com/2011/09/dev-channel-chromebook-upates-and-log.html Today was an amazing day in the Chromebook world - especially for me. There was another dev channel update which brought some exciting new features, and I found a way to remote control my Windows machine from my Chromebook! Owing a Chromebook is an exercise in continuous delayed gratification.

http://nerds-central.blogspot.com/2011/09/chromebook-dev-channel-printing-sorted.html The last update to 15.0.874.5 has pretty much sorted out printing and also brings in a few other long awaited or just cool features. It is not just the printing, but the combination of updates to the file manager, the print preview and the PDF viewer which make this an A1 solution. OK - we still need a traditional machine connected to a printer with cloud print or a cloud print enabled printer, so I guess some people will pick fault, but for me, this is pretty much it - perfect.

Chromebook Dev Channel: Printing Sorted!

http://v8.googlecode.com/svn/data/benchmarks/v6/run.html This page contains a suite of pure JavaScript benchmarks that we have used to tune V8. The final score is computed as the geometric mean of the individual results to make it independent of the running times of the individual benchmarks and of a reference system (score 100). Scores are not comparable across benchmark suite versions and higher scores means better performance: Bigger is better!

How To Use The New ChromeBook File API « Ido's Blog

Next week, on June 15, we are going to see a new animal in town. It’s a laptop that works perfectly for the web. It got one of the best/fast browsers out there and its security model is baked really deep . One of the cool things in ChromeOS is that it gives developers a new API to play with. I worked with it in the past few weeks and I must say, it’s great (=Simple and powerful).
Email Google Chrome OS is often described as an operating system designed to run a single app: a web browser. But as the Chrome OS project has evolved, it’s started to take on features that help you do some of the things you’d expect to do with a desktop operating system. There’s a built-in file browser that lets you view downloaded media, photos and screenshots you take with a Chromebook, and a media player that can handle music and video from your SD card or local storage even when there’s no internet connection handy. But there are still a number of quirks.

Chrome OS adds ZIP file support (inches closer to being a real operating system)

I bought the Samsung Chromebook because I wanted one fast-access device, with an attached keyboard, where I didn't have constant reminders about security updates and scans, to act as a supplement to my home PCs. I'd been very interested in buying one since they appeared on the market, as I'd remarked to a colleague a few years ago that netbooks would run faster if the browser alone was the operating system, and you could probably do most tasks using this - so I had already bought into the concept, as far as I know, before it was even announced. Anyway, in the following, I've compiled some points which I hope will be useful to other Amazon users. Maximising browser speed: With all apps and extensions loaded by default, web browsing slows down. They can all be switched On/Off manually, but I found one extension, Disable All Extensions Plus, which simplifies the process.
