Building Your Own Dynamic Language
February 14, 2007 lecture by Ian Piumarta for the Stanford University Computer Systems Colloquium (EE 380). Ian describes several significant aspects of the design and implementation of a programming environment that, along with a programming language, exhibits the properties desired of the system at large; he finishes by describing the remaining components of the programming system (from parsing to code generation) developed by Viewpoints Research Institute.

Developing DSLs with Eclipse
Talk by Peter Friese, itemis. Domain Specific Languages (DSLs) are becoming more and more popular, allowing developers to express their intent more precisely and with less syntactic noise. DSLs can be built on top of a host language (like Java or Ruby), which are referred to as "internal DSLs". External DSLs are far more flexible in terms of language design: you can define any desired grammar, you can define domain specific constraints and error messages, and you can process the DSL in a concise manner because it can either be interpreted or transformed into the code of any language by a generator. TMF Xtext, which is a part of the Eclipse Galileo release, is a framework for developing textual domain-specific languages. Given an EBNF-style grammar, Xtext automatically generates an Ecore meta model and a rich-featured, fully configurable text-based DSL editor including features such as syntax highlighting, hyperlinked reference navigation, reference look-up, code completion, formatting, an outline and so on. The default implementation can easily be customized. In this session Peter will explain what DSLs are and why you should care about using them. After a short introduction, he will show how to develop DSLs with TMF Xtext, which is a part of this year's Galileo release. You will learn how to define a grammar for a DSL and create a full-blown editor for this DSL, featuring code completion, syntax highlighting, hyperlinking, a semantic outline and more. Peter will also ...
Life's Too Short - Write Fast Code (part 2)
Google Tech Talks Web Exponents presented by Steve Souders March 5, 2009 blog post: google-code-updates.blogspot.com This is the second talk based on Steve's next book, Even Faster Web Sites, the follows-up to High Performance Web Sites. The first talk presented three new best practices: Split the Initial Payload, Load Scripts Without Blocking, and Don't Scatter Inline Scripts. The most important of these is loading external scripts without blocking other downloads and preventing page rendering. One complication is this may introduce undefined symbol errors if inlined code uses symbols from the external scripts. Luckily, there are several techniques to workaround this problem. That and other topics will be covered in this presentation of three more best practices: * Coupling Asynchronous Scripts * Use Iframes Sparingly * Flush the Document Early Speaker: Steve Souders Steve Souders works at Google on web performance and open source initiatives, and previously served as the Chief Performance Yahoo!. He also co-founded Helix Systems and CoolSync, and worked at General Magic, WhoWhere?, and Lycos. Steve is the creator of YSlow, the performance analysis extension to Firebug, which has over 700000 downloads. He serves as co-chair of Velocity, the web performance and operations conference from OReilly, and is co-founder of the Firebug Working Group. He recently taught High Performance Web Sites at Stanford University. The topics from part 1 can be seen here: sites.google.com

Wide Range of Sex Toys from a Sex Toys Store
While the market for sex toys has always been constantly rising, it should be noted that the industry for such toys is mainly unregulated.

David Pollak has been developing commercial software for 28 years. He founded Athena Design and wrote Mesa, the first real-time spreadsheet. David wrote Integer, the first online, collaborative spreadsheet. Since 2000, David has been developing domain specific languages for security and general web development.
ABSTRACT David will describe a framework for developing DSLs which includes: * Identifying the constituents in a development project; * Determining the costs and benefits of a DSL for a particular constituency vs. hand-coding functionality for that constituency based on interviews and specs; * Identifying the 'thought leader' in a given...

This talk was a HUGE disappointment. He droned on far too long on a few key theoretical points, and then when it came time to show a practical example, he shows XML that he ADMITS IS CRAP and NO RUBY!! Why the hell did you mislead everyone by titling this talk RUBY! Thanks for wasting my time.
Interesting talk. ...
Interesting talk. Only too bad this guy can't get over his silly anti-ms sentiments.
