PeterWood 6-Feb-2007 [1772] | From my observation Rebol calculations are much faster than JavaScript especially for integers |
Volker 6-Feb-2007 [1773] | And: AFAIK DOM means other plugins to. IConrtol the viedo :) |
PeterWood 6-Feb-2007 [1774] | I'm sure that parse is faster than Javascript's Regex engine too |
Volker 6-Feb-2007 [1775x2] | Isimply have more rebol-skills than javascript skills^^ |
for speedi would still try javascript+java, but for comfort.. | |
Pekr 6-Feb-2007 [1777] | ok, now I understand ... I know that current DOM-via-js is not very much powerfull, but we have at least something. Or we need proper XML parser then? |
Volker 6-Feb-2007 [1778] | I have no big clue. AFAIK javascript can call everything, and rebol can call javascript. And javascript can be generated. |
PeterWood 6-Feb-2007 [1779] | The main issue with javascript+java is if java isn't installed on the cleint's browser - you then ahve a big download - as Petr has pointed-out a rebol plug-in would be smaller than some JavaScript downloads..... |
Volker 6-Feb-2007 [1780x4] | Drawback is, AFAIK javascript can not call rebol. which would be nice for buttons and such. |
Yes, butthe jitwould be better, and ifiaim for speed.. | |
And with googles compileri may beable tohave a pure javascriptversion from the same source. | |
Hmm, shouldchange the keyboard.. | |
PeterWood 6-Feb-2007 [1784] | ..so you really want a Rebcode plug-in ;-) |
Volker 6-Feb-2007 [1785x2] | Naa, native is still faster. |
A raw hotspot withoutall the libs, and rebolon top :) | |
Pekr 6-Feb-2007 [1787x2] | uh, it looks like you talk in some cipher :-) |
rebcode plug-in? Well, I hope, as new rebol will be mostly a .dll component, that we will be able to link it, call into it, etc.? | |
PeterWood 6-Feb-2007 [1789] | It's just that Volker's space bar isn't working :-) |
Volker 6-Feb-2007 [1790x5] | hotspot is the jit which makes java that fast today. 1 mb i guess. |
oh yes, and its the spacebar.. That or back to a keyboard with cable. | |
the rest of java is lots of libs. nice to have but big.. | |
Which is written very oopsy. rewrite that for size and its 1 mb more. | |
how big is a flash-download? | |
PeterWood 6-Feb-2007 [1795] | Just under 2 mb from what I can tell |
Volker 6-Feb-2007 [1796] | Would allow 3mb uncompressed. |
Maxim 6-Feb-2007 [1797] | I tried deploying a commercial tool in the brower and its very effective. hehe it allows people to circumvent their sysadmins :-) |
Volker 6-Feb-2007 [1798] | But needs lots of knowledge about the internals. Maybe if based on ME . butall speculations.. :) |
Maxim 6-Feb-2007 [1799] | I only wish there where a safe way to implement local file sandbox within plugin. AFAIK, the write and save commands do nothing... |
Volker 6-Feb-2007 [1800x2] | AFAIK they work like desktop-sandbox. in another folder. |
run a script and show what-dir | |
Maxim 6-Feb-2007 [1802] | moving to plugin group. |
Henrik 6-Feb-2007 [1803] | http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughtsonmusic/<-- Steve Jobs encourages the removal of DRM from music. |
Graham 6-Feb-2007 [1804] | Anyone tried this http://www.siteadvisor.com/.. plugin for firefox and ie that tells you about a site's safety rating in terms of spyware, popups etc |
Alan 7-Feb-2007 [1805] | firefox warned me not to install,it's a McAffee product |
Graham 7-Feb-2007 [1806] | It was created by some guys who were then bought out by Macfee ... |
MikeL 7-Feb-2007 [1807] | Site advisor works for me. |
Oldes 8-Feb-2007 [1808] | http://www.break.com/index/awesome_folding_chair.html |
BrianH 8-Feb-2007 [1809] | I want one, or a whole set! |
Graham 8-Feb-2007 [1810] | Looks like an overgrown Xmas decoration |
BrianH 8-Feb-2007 [1811] | I thought a Slinky. |
Graham 8-Feb-2007 [1812x3] | those Xmas decorations that are flat, and you unfold them to form a cylindrical decoration |
this is also known as "prior art" | |
ok, that was a bad pun | |
BrianH 8-Feb-2007 [1815] | :) |
Graham 8-Feb-2007 [1816] | Have a look at http://mail.rebol.com/ |
Sunanda 8-Feb-2007 [1817] | What should it be? The ML is at http://mail.rebol.net |
Graham 8-Feb-2007 [1818] | Ahh... |
Sunanda 8-Feb-2007 [1819] | Which was not to say it shouldn't be something other than it is, just that it isn't not what you thought it ought to be. |
Maxim 8-Feb-2007 [1820] | how to properly load windows vista: http://www.break.com/index/how_to_properly_load_vista.html?playall=1 |
Pekr 9-Feb-2007 [1821] | Apple's iPhone has got a competition. It it in no way revolutionary. Eugenia from OSNews has some nice blog about it. First there was LG, now there is Samsung - those companies surely had such products in development for quite some time. Here's first look at Samsungs machine. And it got keyboard! http://www.akihabaranews.com/en/en/news-13261-When+the+Korean+GOD+awake%2C+he+gives+us...+the+Samsung+Ultra+Smart+F700.html |
