I completely agree on Chuck Moore being one of the computing heroes of the last 4 decades or so.
As far as I can see it, he (or Forth or GreenArrays) needs proper communication/marketing/lobbying staff that ensures that his ideas are being understood by the politicians, decision makers and investors.
Power consumption and processors has always been an issue, they get to warm and need cooling,
server parks consume huge amounts of energy,
batteries wear out to quickly etc...
Wouldn't it be nice if the surface of a tablet (I am talking about 2015-2020) contained a 10" solar panel,
and the processors inside the tablet would need only the energy provided by this solar panel?
that would be a nice start.
- claystu 13y agoI have an interest in forth, the insights of Chuck Moore, and GreenArrays, which is why I was (1) so excited to watch this talk and (2) so disappointed in my in-ability to follow it. I'm not sure what kind of background you need for his talk to make sense, but whatever it is, I don't have it, which causes me to wonder how many people do. I'd guess less than 1 in a million. Simply put: this speech was a marketing disaster... If Chuck Moore really wants to sell these things, he needs to go back to "this is colorForth" and start at the beginning. I hate to say it, but right now GreenArrays looks like an awesome solution in search of a problem.
