Thomas Keller and Per Se

Thomas Keller and Per Se 05/17/2004 02:42 PM

Big article in New York about my favorite chef Thomas Keller and his new restaurant in New York City, The Perfectionist Gets Burned: How Thomas Keller survived the fire that almost took down Per Se.

"Just the other day, Thomas was so proud to show me how they use painter's tape in the kitchen," [The French Laundry Cookbook co-author Michael] Ruhlman says, visiting the Per Se kitchen one afternoon. Instead of tearing the tape from the roll to, say, label the plastic deli cups that hold the ingredients at each mise en place, every strip of tape at Per Se is cut with scissors, every edge perfectly straight. Immaculate. "Because it's all one thing to Thomas. You can't be lax in one area and perfect in another.

"It's not about the sweeping vision," Ruhlman adds. "It's about the minute vision. There are no big decisions. A great restaurant is the result of a thousand little decisions. A place like this is just composed of details. It's a pointillist picture. So every night after service, you'll see Thomas down on his knees, scrubbing out the cupboards."

Ah, that sounds like the Thomas Keller who charmed me as I read Michael Rhulman's wonderful book, The Soul of a Chef: The Journey Toward Perfection. I love the minute vision, the focus on the thousand little decisions, making sure each one is as right as it can be. Of course, such perfectionism is exhausting, but I think that's just how I'm made. And reading this makes me want to take back what I said the other day about not wanting to eat at Per Se. Maybe I do after all...

Dan Bricklin points to Chris Daly's Are Bloggers Journalists? Let's Ask Thomas Jeffeson. Here's a snippet that Dan pulls out of the article: Common Sense and other pamphlets like it were precisely the kind of political journalism that Jefferson had in mind when he insisted on a constitutional amendment in 1790 to protect press freedom — anonymous, highly opinionated writing from diverse, independent sources. In historical terms, today's bloggers are much closer in spirit to the Revolutionary-era pamphleteers than today's giant, conglomerate mainstream media. Both Chris' piece and Dan's discussion of it are well worth reading... [Technorati tags: blogs bricklin...

Common(s) Sense of Thomas Paine

Common(s) Sense of Thomas Paine 01/11/2004 07:56 AM
David Richards writes, and evilsite.org says, that Thomas Paine assigned the copyright to "Common Sense" to the Continental Congress. Richards speculates he was the first to do so, and should thus be a model for Creative Commons. So at first I thought that was right (the model part; I don't know enough about the history part). But here's why I don't think so now: We should distinguish in this debate between altruistic copyright policy, and reasonable copyright policy. I'm all for altruism, and we certainly don't have enough out there. But Creative Commons is not about altruism; it is about reasonableness. CC says balance, not self-less. It is trying to find a way to restate what balance there should be "in the digital world" (how I hate that phrase). Voluntarily, no doubt, but not self-lessly. Self-lessness, and sainthood, like free and open source software, have enough models out there. CC is not yet another.

Thomas Burick on the Future of PC Bots

Thomas Burick on the Future of PC Bots 01/09/2004 11:23 PM
RoboticsTrends.com has posted a recent interview with Thomas Burick of White Box Robotics. According to the interview, it turns out Thomas got his start with the venerable Heathkit Hero robots. The interview provides some background on Burick as well as details on White Box Robotics' 912 series of PC based robots. If you haven't seen the 912 robots yet, take a look - they're some of the nicest looking robots currently available. They're based on the VIA Mini-ITX motherboard. The consumer version of the robots will ship with Windows and proprietary control software from Evolution robotics but the article suggests that a lower-cost "bare-bones" version might be available without the expensive software licenses for robot experimenters and researchers who want to run Linux and one of the more developer-friendly Open Source control systems.

Interview with Dilip Thomas from Wrox 02/06/2003 06:16 PM

about PHP 02/07/2003 09:40 AM
Interview with Dilip Thomas of WROX about PHP Ivan, of the new PHP Traveller blog, just published a good interview about WROX's direction with their PHP books: Q: You seem to have been very busy publishing PHP books. Are there any other books about PHP in the works? Dilip Thomas: There are *many* more PHP books in the pipeline. We have a solid commitment to publishing the best PHP books, and that too on diverse topics. In my opinion, Wrox == PHP in the same sense as ORA == PERL. The next best PHP book to look out for is the "PHP MySQL Website Programming - Problem Design Solutions", that is slated to release in March '03 - It dissects the creation of a complete application driven website (using PHP/MySQL/Apache) from design to deployment (using the very popular Problem - Design - Solution approach). Q: What will "PHP Web Graphics Handbook" and "PHP String Handbook" be about? Dilip Thomas: Wrox Handbook's are new way of providing in-depth information on a specific task of a technology, by documenting the options, problems, best practices (to circumvent the problems) in that particular domain. It endeavours to be a reference for life and transgresses the rather shallow task-specific coverage that specific tasks are accorded to, in our Professional books. The "PHP Web Graphics Handbook" (scheduled for March '03) is an extension of the "Professional PHP Multimedia Programming" book that was released in September '02. It will show readers how to write PHP code that will create professional-looking web graphics and images "on the fly" (using GD, IM, netpbm, JpGraph etc). The "PHP String Handbook" will take a close look at text manipulation, and use of regular expressions in PHP. It will also cover advanced Regexes and patterns. [_Go_] Nice job. Thanks man. If I get a copy of these books from WROX, I'll publish a review. And WROX also now has WROXBASE, an equivalent to O'Reilly's Safari as best I can tell.

Letter to Thomas Kean from Sibel Edmonds

Letter to Thomas Kean from Sibel Edmonds 08/02/2004 10:52 PM

On July 21 Jim Hough posted the transcript of a radio interview with Sibel Edmonds on AxisofLoic.

Jim Hogue

F ormer FBI Translator Sibel Edmonds Calls Current 9/11 Investigation InadequateINTRODUCTION: Sibel Edmonds and Behrooz Sarshar, beginning in December of 2001, began filing reports to their superiors at the FBI. These reports could lead to the collapse of a corrupt power structure that has a stranglehold on the very institutions that are obligated to control it. We cannot excuse these institutions, for while they fiddle, they pass death sentences on their own troops, and on the people of Afghanistan and Iraq.

On April 30th, Sibel Edmonds was my guest for 50 minutes on WGDR radio. What follows is an edited transcript of the interview. The editing is for the sake of a more readable piece.

Sibel Edmonds is a former FBI translator. She blew the whistle on the cover-up of intelligence that names some of the culprits who orchestrated the 9/11 attacks. These culprits are protected by the Justice Department, the State Department, the FBI, the White House and the Senate Judiciary Committee. They are foreign nationals and Americans. Ms. Edmonds is under two gag orders that forbid her to testify in court or mention the names of the people or the countries involved.

Aparently Edmonds has not been able to get this message out and has written a letter to Thomas Kean, the Chairman of the 9/11 Commission.

9/11 CitizensWatch

August 1, 2004

[...]

Dear Chairman Kean:

[snip]
Unfortunately, I find your report seriously flawed in its failure to address serious intelligence issues that I am aware of, which have been confirmed, and which as a witness to the commission, I made you aware of. Thus, I must assume that other serious issues that I am not aware of were in the same manner omitted from your report.
[snip]

Considering what is at stake, our national security, we are entitled to demand answers to unanswered questions, and to ask for clarification of issues that were ignored and/or omitted from the report.

I just che cked on Google News and there isn't much about this letter yet. I'm interested to see how the mass media picks this up and whether they dig into this accusation of a massive cover-up.

Thanks to Richard for the tip

Studying journalism - stalking Thomas
Crampton

Studying journalism - stalking Thomas
Crampton 01/23/2004 02:18 PM

Introduced Thomas to Sergey. Joi helping his fellow "journalist"...

Thomas Crampton is a fellow GLT and journalist for the International Herald Tribune. I've been hanging out with his a lot this trip, trying to learn more about how journalists work and think. For instance, I asked him about how he deals with issues such as global warming where it is so difficult to understand the first sources and we have to rely so heavily on experts and reports which often conflict. I've also been watching how he interviews people and teases out quotes and threads and focuses his discussion in a way that tries to gather evidence for a story that's developing in his head while at the same time keeping open opportunities for new ideas. (Just like good bloggers do. ;-) )

He's now working on a story about bloggers and he's been interviewing the bloggers at Davos. He's been asking a lot of questions about how we view ourselves, our ethics and what blogging means. It's very interesting on many levels because I'm interviewing him about journalism, he's interviewing me about blogging and I'm watching him interact with people, efficiently gathering information to construct a story. I'm looking forward to seeing how Tom's article turns out and how he manages to take the spaghetti of conversations and turns it into a piece of journalism.

In the process of developing the story about blogs, he quickly picked up the importance of Google and asked me to introduce him to Sergey. We both asked him questions about Google and blogs and I am happy to report that Sergey thinks that blogs may highlight some general issues with page ranking that need to be dealt with to continue to increase the accuracy of page rank, but that he didn't seem to think that blogs were "noise" or that they were getting artificially high page rank. Sergey didn't seem think think that blogs should be treated any differently than any other type of web page. This concurs with the opinion that Larry Page gave me the when I asked him about this last year.

So sorry Andrew, it doesn't look like blogs will be filtered from Google any time soon, and until the media starts to become more permalink friendly, I think the role of blogs in providing information and opinion on the Internet will continue to increase. The good news is that I realize that the questions that many bloggers are asking themselves about ethics and justice are the same questions that editors and journalists are asking themselves.

I wonder if it is ethical for me blogging about Tom's article? ;-)
