.NET reality check

.NET reality check 01/27/2004 02:51 PM
There's been some pushback recently, in the .NET blogging community, about Microsoft's habit of living in the future. For example:

It is abundantly frustrating to be keeping up with you guys right now. We out here in the real world do not use Longhorn, do not have access to Longhorn (not in a way we can trust for production), and we cannot even begin to test out these great new technologies until version 1.0 (or 2.0 for those that wish to stay sane). I know there's probably not a whole lot you can do, but this is a plea to you from someone "in the field". My job is to work on the architecture team as well as implement solutions for a large-scale commercial website using .NET. I use this stuff all day every day, but I use the 1.1 release bits.

Here's my point, enough with the "this Whidbey, Longhorn, XAML is so cool you should stop whatever it is you are doing and use it". Small problem, we can't. Please help us by remembering that we're still using the release bits, not the latest technology. [Michael Earls]

In the spirit of Michael's plea, I'm working on an upcoming article in which I'll compare what was promised for the .NET platform (er, framework), two and three years ago, with the current reality as it exists today. Examples of the kinds of issues I want to consider: ...

Every now and then, I like to sit down and write a list of all the things I’m doing, marking down deadlines and making sure that all the development lines intersect nicely where they should. Of course, I also keep a daily to-do list–as I mentioned in an earlier post, I tend to use old-fashioned paper [...]

Is A Google Background Check So Odd?

Is A Google Background Check So Odd? 04/12/2004 03:27 PM
Earlier this year we spoke about how the old "references available upon request" line at the end of resumes was incredi bly out-dated in an age when most references are available by Google. It appears that not everyone has received that memo. Over at E-Media Tidbits, they're surprised that a newspaper needed a reader's suggestion to Google the backgrounds of three candidates for the local school superintendent job.

Google Background Check On Date Catches
Fugitive 01/29/2004 02:49 AM
Thanks to John for submitting this story about just how useful it might be to Google your dates. Of course, this has been known for years. It's been more than three years since we first posted stories about Googl ing dates as a poor man's background check. While, for most people, it's just an amusing and quick way to find out a little more about the person you're meeting up with, sometimes you can turn up quite a bit. In this case, a quick Googling turned up the fact that the guy a woman was about to meet was a wanted fugitive who had eluded authorities for over a year. Once again, it appears that Google really is your permanent record. Of course, you have to wonder... if you're a fugitive with the FBI trying to track you down, why are you going to use your real name on a date?

Adesso's Cameras: Mini? Check. Assy?

Kyocera isn't the only camera company taking hot fashion tips from Apple's iPod mini. Adesso has a new line of new cameras that seem to match, at least superficially, the green, pink, and blue colors of the mini. However, in an interesting break from Kyocera's form, the Adesso cameras seem to be exceptionally, well, crappy, with the high end model rolling in with a 1.3-megapixel sensor. I guess hoping for an LCD on the back of these is asking too much, huh? I think this is one time when following the 'smaller is better' ethic is probably a misstep.

Even worse? They're not even out. (Thanks, Justin!)

The Reality of Bugs

The Reality of Bugs 11/13/2003 12:38 AM

As some comments in my previous blog entry illustrate, I think people simply don't grasp the magnitude of the Web. There are (conservatively) 10 million Web sites on the Web. Let's say (conservatively) that each Web site has 50 unique Web pages. That's 500 million Web pages that the Web browser has to work perfectly on.

Let's imagine that the browser has done a fantastic job of emulating all the quirks of WinIE and Netscape 4, and that it is really good at laying out malformed HTML. An awesome browser would be (conservatively) 95% compliant, which means that it would have some sort of bug or problem on 5% of those 500 million Web pages.

5% of 500 million Web pages is 25 million malfunctioning Web pages. Let's now assume that only 10% of those Web pages are even seen by someone using Safari itself. Now we're down to 2.5 million pages seen by Safari users.

If only 10% of those users even bother to report a bug, that's 250,000 unique bugs that have to be screened.

This is the reality of the Web. People are constantly shocked and amazed that their pet bug hasn't been fixed in subsequent releases (e.g., in Mozilla or Safari), but those people simply don't understand how many hundreds of thousands of bugs their particular problem is competing with.

After a lot of war talk last night, the Republicans are getting back to the "compassionate conservatism" theme -- a clever and probably necessary strategy for Bush two months from Election Day when more Americans think his opponent understands people like them. Helping to make Bush's case: Education Secretary Rod Paige. (You may remember Paige's outrageous comments earlier this year likening the nation's largest teachers union to a "terrorist organization.")
