An early birthday present: The Gmail Javascript compiler was just open-sourced! http://code.google.com/closure... (it compiles JS into smaller, faster JS)

Well, thanks :) But for a verbose API I'll stick with YUI :P Have to inspect the power of templating and compiler, though.

I wonder what happens when you apply it recursively -- can you get down to 1 byte of code that takes no time to execute? ;=)

- Onur Gündüz
if you were starting a new site today, would you use this over jquery (which friendfeed uses)?
- Karl Rosaen
Karl, jquery is a library, this is a compiler. I would use them both.
- Paul Buchheit
well, i mean closure library :) but yeah, they could be used together
- Karl Rosaen
ah, i see this is a link closure compiler, not the broader closure tools.
- Karl Rosaen
Refactoring, JS style.
- Gabe
Now, this is a good news
- Ozkan Altuner
@Paul the Closure project has three components: compiler, library, and template language. Looks like the Closure/library might be competing with jQuery.
- Shakeel Mahate
this is sweet!
- Jay
I think jQuery does a lot of stuff that might confuse the compiler, e.g. iterating over an array of string function names and creating new function wrappers (look at the way the parent/child/next/prev/etc functions get installed) The Closure library is also full of type annotations that help the compiler make better optimization choices, so you're likely to get a better compiled outcome using Closure than jQuery + fixes + compiler
- Ray Cromwell
@paul -- I know you've been wanting this opensourced for a long time. sorry it took such a long time. Nick Santos and the jscompiler team has finally done it! Cheers!

Congratulations to the team (and @Paul & Jing) -- I know everyone's been waiting a long time for this. For anyone considering whether to use jQuery vs Closure, consider that they're meant for largely different purposes. jQuery's good for enhancing static web pages; Closure's much better at building large apps. And as Ray points out above, Closure the library is going to get much better results from Closure the compiler than an arbitrary js library would, because of all the type annotations.

Functional Elegance: The Small Haul by Frances Cycles : TreeHugger - http://www.treehugger.com/files...
Seth, Michael R. Bernstein, The Bohemian Penguin and 2 other people liked this
"The Long John in April’s recent post on Five Cool Cargo Bikes reminded me of the wonderful looking Small Haul. This is an exquisitely detailed, hand-made bike frame that includes a vast cargo-hold right under the handlebars. Joshua Muir, who crafts them in his workshop in Santa Cruz, Calfornia, describes them as “quick and surprisingly light.” The front basket is rated to carry up to 80lbs (36 kg) as indicated by the above pic of the Labrador. The Frances Cable Steering System is employed to ensure turning is nimble. Should you need to hump 200lbs (90kg) about the place, Joshua can rustle you up the heftier Cycletruck. Frances Cycles sounds like a very TreeHuggery sort of business: “Bicycles are an argument for localism. I don’t own a car and drive little, riding frames out the painter’s in Watsonville. Most all of the materials I use are sourced within the US, and some in the Bay Area. My framesets are built by hand, one at a time, slowly. Bicycles offer a way to move around in the world without sacrificing the beauty and safety of our neighborhoods or the quality of our air.”"

The Madsen looks like a real beauty, thanks Cee Bee. Frances is local, so that has a lot of appeal as well. I'm also liking the idea of the cargo being out in front. What would be awesome is a way to test drive both styles... something that might be easier to achieve in Portland than Santa Cruz, so I might just have to make a point of checking some bikes out when I'm up there for the Pickathon next month.

The ’80’s were a magical decade for gadgets for kids. Computing power and display technology were evolving and cost effective enough to penetrate the toy market in a big way. Purely mechanical toys evolved into electromechanical toys and gave birth to the digital toy revolution.

Daimler Takes 10 Percent Stake in Tesla - http://www.wired.com/autopia...

"One of the oldest automakers joined one of the newest Tuesday as Daimler took an equity stake of “nearly 10 percent” in Tesla Motors, a deal that will bear fruit later this year when the German company launches the electric Smart ForTwo. The deal provides Daimler with batteries and the know-how needed to bring an electric car to market “at the highest possible speed,” company officials said. In exchange, Tesla gets a big pile of cash and, perhaps more importantly, the parts and engineering expertise it needs to build the Model S sedan. “Tesla brings expertise in the battery electric front,” Tesla CEO Elon Musk said during a press conference carried live via webcast from Daimler’s headquarters in Stuttgart. “Daimler brings expertise in everything else. This will be a very productive relationship where both Tesla and Daimler benefit.” Neither company provided specific details of the deal, but Daimler officials said its investment is “a double-digit million sum for a nearly 10 percent stake in Tesla Motors.”"

And here I was waiting for netbooks to get better performance and instead we see the same low performance spreading from the mobile world, where it made sense, to our desks. Crud. It's nice that it's got low power requirements, but that seems to be it.

When do they start building the computer into the keyboard?
- Brian Sieker
I need a small, very low power consumption system with two ethernet ports to replace a home server. The fit-PC2 is so tantalizingly close; I'd have to add a USB ethernet dongle, and those are teh suck.

"Want" is a serious understatement. I could do some evil, evil things with that!

Very sexy! I can imagine having three or four of these with SSDs around my house.

With more HDMI ports and built-in blu-ray this would be an excellent choice for HTPC. Here's a better link to the data sheet http://www.compulab.co.il/fitpc2...

For the right (low) price, even with it's flaws it could be a great little media server. And here I was wishing upon an eee-box-star.

sɹǝɥʇɐǝɟʞɔɐןq: Thanks for those helpful pieces of info. Please consider using punctuation and capitalization in the future. I know it's not cool, but it serves a purpose (e.g. it helps knowledge transfer, the supposed reason for commenting in the first place) :P.

I doubt that 1080p H.264. is watchable. Need some proof. It would be a key factor for me.

Umm, to watch HDTV Sat, you need 3GHZ Dual-Core and a good graphic card. That's the minimum requirements for most of the sat-cards or usb-boxes. I don't think you can play FULL-HD with a Atom 1.6 GHZ, unless it uses some kind of hardware acceleration. More info ?

coldbrew, are you from Germany?
- Ryo / Fuck Facebook
I want one of these.
- Robert Gregory Browne
The newer boards use a dual-core Atom and NVidia 9400M chipset. Even has CUDA support. I believe it could decode 1080p. http://mini-itx.com/2009...

Looks great. I want also. I'll wait for Windows 7.

Smaller than a MacMini. I'll wait for Windows 7 too.

I wonder how well this will run Boxee.. Is it the perfect boxee box?

I'm always skeptical about the 1080P claims for nettops.

Who remembers Microsoft's CDF Channel Definition Format, or Vignette's ICE? I think Dave's insight here is good. Netscape kick started the market by giving people an opportunity to get a slice of their portal traffic. Many of the other syndication formats started from the trickle-down premise of some "Content is King" publisher pushing their content to smaller sites, rather than smaller sites pushing their content to them.
