Fire GL Mod


Fire GL Mod 06/17/2004 10:42 PM
Do you have an ATI Radeon video card? If so, Adrian's Rojak Pot has a story up that shows you how to convert your Radeon based video card into a Fire GL card, with no physical modification through a process which modifies the video BIOS. The difference primarily between a normal Radeon video card and a Fi re GL card is (drum roll.....) $120+ dollars, and enhancements designed for CAD and rendering programs. (entire list of certified programs that take advantage of Fire GL are in this PDF, including Adobe Premier) Video BIOS images are available here. Of course, modding your video card is certainly nothing new, as hacking ones BIOS can be an easy (if not somewhat dangerous) way to get more power from your investment. (Note: Although you can save a bad flash, the process is somewhat difficult. Attempt mod at your own risk.)

Out of the fire, into the frying pan


Out of the fire, into the frying pan 08/02/2004 05:05 PM

Well, it certainly has been an incredible past 3 weeks. It's almost hard to believe, but it has only been 20 days since we got the initial call from CNN, and the entire team here has been through a firedrill the likes of which I've never seen. In three short weeks, we had to completely revamp and fix a number of core scalability issues with the Technorati service as well as roll out a new site redesign ahead of schedule, not to mention the new politics site as well. I'm amazed that we weathered the storm. Site traffic grew by 8x to 10x over or previous levels, the site is now valid XHTML 1.0 strict, is completely CSS driven, more cross-browser friendly, and we added 60 more servers to handle the increased database demand. We now have far fewer single points of failure, which will allow the service to grow more smoothly in the future.

Unfortunately, we also broke a bunch of things. First off, user logins got broken when we switched to a new load-balanced front-end system. This new system allows us to put as many web servers out there as we wanted, but in the rush, we broke the code that performed user sessions - which meant that user logins don't work correctly. We put in a new caching subsystem which wasn't fully tested, and sometimes service results went awry. Weblog claims aren't working right for a small segment of our members, a nagging problem that we've got to get working as well. And worst of all, email watchlists for some of our paying subscribers have been broken, and we haven't been on the ball in fixing it.

I apologize.

For as much progress that we've made in the last few weeks and months, with all the increased visibility and traffic, we've been so focused on the trees, that we've lost sight of the forest - which are you guys, the bloggers and users of the service. We've gotten offtrack, thinking about new features and enhancements before handling and fixing the known issues we already had (gosh darn it, there are so many cool features to do). We lost sight of the fact that we're here to be of service to you.

There's no good excuse for that.

All I can say is that we're committed to fixing the issues, and to building a rock-solid infrastructure and bug-free service. The first thing we're doing is fixing the session/login issues, so those of you who weren't able to log in will be able to log in. Responsiveness and customer support is also a top priority.

Over the last few days, I've gotten a lot of email and pointers to blog entries that commented on the service - both successes and frustrations. Thanks for the criticism and feedback. Some of it was brutal, but that's the best kind - the stuff that hits closest to the heart. Like how we were being unresponsive. That's just unacceptable. And we're going to fix that. We're taking this week to go back and take a serious look at what we did right, what we did wrong, and how we can better serve all of you going forward. Thanks again for using Technorati, and for all of the time, attention, and feedback. We're committed to making things right, and providing a great service to all of you.

Firefox on Fire


Firefox on Fire 09/24/2004 07:22 AM

While it's cool to see that Mozilla Foundation has met their goal of 1 million Firefox 1.0PR download in 10-days, it's sad to see that they achieved that by doing it the Old Fashion Way, delivering every byte to everyone themselves.

Instead of the irrelevant, so called, RSS Support, they could have added BitTorrent support to the Firefox, enabling Mozilla servers to share the download frenzy stress with network download clients and enabling every Firefox installation to be BitTorrent-ready at the same time.

But then it's a puzzle why AOL, Mozilla's former patron, didn't add BitTorrent support across it's product line (AIM, WinAmp, etc.) to make it easy for people to download multimedia.  IMHO, the best way to control illegal sharing of copyrighted goods is by controlling the client.  And lets not forget all the legal ways to leverage P2P technologies.

One example is peer to peer education.  Recording video or audio is so much simpler than writing books.  Why not ask people to share amateur How-To videos?  Time/LIFE made a bundle selling How-To books and market interest is clearly there.  Turn on those Visa/MC logos and let people make money off teaching others how to fix things.

The best time to embrace a technology is when everyone is scared of it.  Grab it by the horn and flip it to your advantage.
