07/25/2004 02:44 AMThis piece in today's
New York Times outlines a number of the
presumed truths about 9/11 which the 9/11 commission report
effectively debunks. Among them:
The commission's report found that the hijackers had repeatedly broken
the law in entering the United States, that Mr. bin Laden may have
micromanaged the attacks but did not pay for them, that intelligence
agencies had considered the threat of suicide hijackings, and that Mr.
Bush received an August 2001 briefing on evidence of continuing
domestic terrorist threats from Al Qaeda.

05/15/2004 08:45 AMIf you've tried to comment on the site in the last few hours then
you'll probably already have noticed that I've upgraded to MT 3.0 and that I've turned on
most of the draconian comment features. In the last couple of days I
have had the better part of sixty comment spams from various hardcore
pornography, bestiality and rape sites and quite frankly I've had
enough.
Anyway as a result of the upgrade there are a few templates across
the site that have broken and look a bit crappy. I'll try and get that
stuff sorted over the weekend, once I've ploughed through my new book
on Illustrator. I'm so far behind in my various obligations outside
work that I can't really imagine I'm going to get everything done I
want to over the next couple of days, but I'm going to give it my best
shot. In the meantime, I can recommend Troy - it's long and
it's not particularly accurate, but it's mostly pretty compelling and
has a few ridiculous Classics jokes which appealed to me in it. Back
in a bit.

Maybe women wouldn't want to get married
if they knew how time-consuming it was
03/17/2005 03:24 AMA 40ish friend he told me about life with his twentysomething
girlfriend:
- "I plan the dinner, shop for all the ingredients, choose and buy
the wine, cook and clean up."
- "We were staying at a friend's house. When it came time to
leave she was relaxing while I cleaned up and put the sheets and
towels in the washing machine."
- "We earn about the same amount of money and yet I pay for
everything."
- "She seems to think equality means doing less than
half the work so she won't ever have to feel mid-twentieth century
housewifelike."
At the same time we know a huge number of women who seem to be good
at everything except holding onto a guy long enough to get married,
something that they claim to want. Could it be the case that in
the old days mothers sat their daughters down and explained to them
how selfish and spoiled most men are and what they needed to do to
keep the guy happy? Whereas now young women are exposed to
wisdom from Jada Pinkett Smith, a popular actress:
“Women, you can have it all—a loving man, devoted husband, loving
children, a fabulous career,” she said. “They say you gotta choose.
Nah, nah, nah. We are a new generation of women. We got to set a new
standard of rules around here. You can do whatever it is you want. All
you have to do is want it.” (speaking at Harvard, a talk that got her into
hot water for being too "heteronormative")
The implication of Pinkett Smith's remarks was that a Harvard
girl, in virtue of being bright, well-educated, and ambitious, was
entitled to these things without doing too much work except
maybe on the career part. She never added "if you're
willing to do the laundry, plan and pay for half the evenings out,
straighten up the house in between visits from the cleaners."
Some of our women friends do seem to have figured out what
compromises and efforts are entailed but they suffer through many
inexplicable (to them) dumpings and are into their late 30s by the
time insight is acquired. This wouldn't be a problem except that
by this age they are past their best reproductive years and are often
rather embittered toward men.
A potential solution:Find couples where the man is satisfied and
not thinking about walking out. Do time-and-motion studies of
the female partner in these couples and figure out how much effort
they are putting forth. Report the results so that single women
can decide if it is worth the bother. Perhaps when they see the
data they will come to agree with Isabel Archer in Portrait of a Lady, who,
when all around her were trying to marry her off, thought
"she held that a woman ought to be able to make up her life in
singleness, and that it was perfectly possible to be happy without the
society of a more or less coarse-minded person of another
sex."
[Update: Some (married) friends pointed out that
there are quite a few books targeted at women who want to get married,
offering advice. However this advice is anecdotal and not based
on hard numbers gleaned from surveys. A friend in her 40s
pointed out that perhaps by coddling our kids we've produced an entire
generation too selfish to make a marriage succeed. This afflicts
both young men and women equally with the difference that men have the
biological luxury to wait until they are 40 or 50 to figure it
out.]

Interview with Dilip Thomas of WROX
about PHP
02/07/2003 09:40 AMInterview 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.
