09/03/2004 09:26 PMPhiladelphia is
considering adding WiFi boxes to all street lights, making the
whole city WiFi alive. What I like best about this idea is how the
link to street lights suggests how we should think about this
resource:
(1) Is it free? No, just as street lighting costs money, it will cost
money to put Wifi boxes on street lighting.
(2) Is it free. Yes, like lighted streets, and air conditioned city
hall, you won't have to pay to enjoy the resource.
(3) So it is free and not free: yes, as all great public resources
are.
And as with all great public resources, this will benefit Philadelphia
in ways we cannot begin to imagine. Let the city provide a platform,
and watch the entrepreneurs find a million ways to make it valuable.
Did anyone have any clue about all the ways the GPS would be used once

Thirteen, Hooking Up
Thirteen, Hooking Up
12/30/2003 12:09 AMRob points us to CBC's series on kids Hooking Up. In the post he
mentions the film Thirteen, which I saw Thursday night. Thirteen is an
excellent movie. The fact that Nikki Reed, one of the two teenage
actors, cowrote the somewhat autobiographical story at the age of
thirteen makes it even more remarkable. As I commented on Rob's site,
if my daughter Abby were 12-15 (thankfully she's only three) I would
take her to see the movie then go for a long walk on the north shore
to talk about it ... or maybe just quietly think about it...

Acid2: Row Thirteen Revisited
Acid2: Row Thirteen Revisited
04/15/2005 04:16 PMOk, I now pass row thirteen. In strict mode I just made comment
parsing flip a canClose bit as it encountered pairs of --. For
an even number of --, you can close when you encounter a >. That
fixes the rendering. I'm not sure this is correct, but hopefully it
is. :)
The Acid2 Test, Row Thirteen
The Acid2 Test, Row Thirteen
04/15/2005 03:20 PMI must admit that I am completely baffled by row thirteen. The row
includes a comment that Safari appears to be handling incorrectly, but
I have no idea why. There is apparently something I don't know about
comment handling. Can someone from WaSP clarify and explain what the
heck I'm supposed to do with this line?
<!-- -- --->ERROR<!- ------
></div></div> <!-- two dashes is what delimits a
comment, so the text "->ERROR<!-" earlier on this line is
actually part of a comment -->
This particular comment test seems particularly esoteric and
pointless to me. It's clear that I'll have to limit this parsing rule
to strict mode anyway, since I doubt other browsers make you count
hyphens when constructing comments.
I'm a bit perplexed that a test that is supposedly testing features
that WaSP considers "essential" for the future Web contains data URLs
and esoteric SGML comment rule tests. What about inline-block?
I consider that far more essential than whether or not a browser can
handle some obscure comment parsing rule.

World Robot Declaration Issued by Japan
World Robot Declaration Issued by Japan
03/06/2004 02:03 AMThe International Robot Fair
2004 started off with a "World Robot
Declaration" yesterday. The declaration states three specific
expectations that future robots must meet and declares 5 resolutions
on
what must be done to bring the next generation of robots into
existence.
It puts into words the Simak-like Japanese philosphy towards robots
that we've been aware of in a general sense for years. Basically
robots
will be the companions of the human race and assist humans physically
and psychologically while helping to keep the world safe and peaceful.
The full text of the declaration is included below.

Sign onto the Geneva Declaration, change
WIPO!
09/23/2004 09:26 AM
Cory Doctorow:
Last weekend, I represented EFF at a meeting in Geneva of several
disparate activit and non-govermental orgs, working to draft a joint
doc called "Future of WIPO," (or, more formally, "Geneva Declaration
on the Future of the World Intellectual Property Organization"). This
doc is a call to arms to orgs that would see WIPO revisit its role in
the world, to take into account the public interest when formulating
and promulgating IP policy. The doc has been finalised and is online
-- we're collecting signatories for it, and you're invited.
Humanity faces a global crisis in the governance of knowledge,
technology and culture. The crisis is manifest in many ways.
* Without access to essential medicines, millions suffer and die;
* Morally repugnant inequality of access to education, knowledge and
technology undermines development and social cohesion;
* Anticompetitive practices in the knowledge economy impose enormous
costs on consumers and retard innovation;
* Authors, artists and inventors face mounting barriers to follow-on
innovation;
* Concentrated ownership and control of knowledge, technology,
biological resources and culture harm development, diversity and
democratic institutions;
* Technological measures designed to enforce intellectual property
rights in digital environments threaten core exceptions in copyright
laws for disabled persons, libraries, educators, authors and
consumers, and undermine privacy and freedom;
* Key mechanisms to compensate and support creative individuals and
communities are unfair to both creative persons and consumers;
* Private interests misappropriate social and public goods, and lock
up the public domain.

For a team of collaborators, Groove synchronizes both the sets of
applications available in a given context (or "shared space") and the
data written by those applications. If you drop your laptop on the
floor you can effortlessly recover everything into a fresh instance of
Groove on a new machine.
Of course this works only for native Groove apps. Browser history and
bookmarks, Outlook settings, and a million other things are handled in
a million other ways -- or not handled at all -- because desktop
operating systems aren't Groove. A general solution would require OSs
that work like Groove, and applications that send messages rather than
write files. Well, come to think of it, why not? [Full story at

Still Dependent on Independence Day
07/03/2004 03:13 PMDid you ever have one of those moments where you just wanted to haul
out the old 12-gauge and blow grapefruit-sized holes through enything
even remotely digital in sight?
It happens all too often. If I could have found the shells before I
cooled off…
The bottom line is that my digital dreams of lying around on the porch
entertained by streaming audio coming over the Wi-Fi airwaves went
kaflooey in spectacular manner.
It all started innocently enough when I got my hands on some money.
I’d been planning this part of The Grand Upgrade for some time.
I’d just go out and buy a Linksys broadband wireless router and
a matching ‘.g’ card for my antiquated IBM Thinkpad and
I’d be flying high. Right.
First up was to get the router in place and running the part of the
network that is to remain wired. That only took a 20 minute call to
their tech support. Their people are rather obviously of Indian
descent, but are capable people with a good deal of patience. I did my
best to understand and together, we finally got the thing working. It
wasn’t hard, but what I still fail to get is why neither the
Quick Start manual nor the main manual had this set of instructions in
them. Being quick on the trigger, I took notes on the provedure. I
figured I’d better, since the sequence of steps took no logical
sequence.
Suddenly, it all clicked. I now had every system independently sucking
down bytes from the Internet without the chance that taking one down
would trash the others. Wonderful.
Then I got stupid. Or optimistic, though the two are very close. I
decided I’d try setting up the notebook card. Boom! Brick wall.
File errors every time I went through the setup. Then I took a look in
the Hardware Manager, since I had a good power light on the thing,
just no ‘Link’ lights. More bad news- a yellow and black
exclamation point. Further investigation revealed that “The
device cannot be enabled because IRQ Steering is not enabled on this
machine” or words to that effect. Worse yet, the message
encouraged me to change the settings in the “machine BIOS”
in order to enable IRQ Steering. Since the machine is old enough that
it originally came with Windows 95, I leave it to you to guess how
effective that would be. Oops, sorry, last BIOS update released by Big
Blue was in 1998 and had been in place for quite some time.
Another call to the good offshore folks showed me that without IRQ
steering, there just wasn’t going to be any fun stuff like a
Wi-Fi connection to the Internet. End of story.
So, the card was reluctantly returned to the retail wonderland it came
from and I gave up (for now) on my digital dream. Some day when I get
the needed cash and there isn’t any domestic disaster lurking in
the wings, I’ll do what I need to, which is to ditch the old
clunker and buy a newer old clunker that can support my need for
surfing.
So ends the tale of failed Independence for Independence day.
