Mike and Robert

Mike and Robert 05/20/2004 05:34 PM

I met some folks yesterday whom I haven't seen for a long time: Peter Yared, whom I worked with at NetDynamics, and Mike Boich, whom I worked for at Radius.  Peter Yared was CTO of Sun's Liberty division and Mike, founded and headed Radius, Rendition, and Eazel.  He is now a VC at Alta Partners where Robert Simon, a long time friend, also works.

I forgot to take Peter's picture but here is Mike and Robert.

Robert Kennedy, Jr.


Robert Kennedy, Jr. 11/25/2003 08:39 PM

Robert Kennedy, Jr. - Interviewed at Salon.com...

I remember where I was when THEY killed his uncle.I was a freshman at the University, playing chss in the student union, and I distanced myself from the horror by declaring "That's politics."  I dropped out of school and went to San Francisco a few months later.  I read Ayn Rand, drank chianti, ate bread and cheese, hung out in North Beach, and later in the year I hung around the edges of the Republican convention, celebrity spotting.  I was appalled by Goldwater's nomination.Even then, before the CO and CO2 had risen to levels that threaten human survival, I was pretty well convinced that nuking the DMZ would be a bad thing for the enbvironment and every living thing on the planet.  I wasn't yet 21 so I wasn't faced with the choice of voting for Johnson (who many of us suspected had a hand in the dirty deed on 11/22/63) and voting for Goldwater (who many of us believed was crazy as a loon).

I don't remember where I was on April 4, 1968 when THEY killed Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.I was in school, I know.  Two months later when THEY killed Robert Kennedy the whole thing was at such a bizarre level that reality was suspect.  And I watched and I protested and I made loud ineffective noises.  There were optimists among us who went "clean for Gene" McCarthy. It was a lost cause. 

From the day after King's death through the end of 1969,  the Black Panther Party was decimated by the FBI.  There was no effective news coverage of the events.  It wasn't until the National Guard killed white students at Kent State in the spring of 1970 that our national consciousness began to shift.  And even then, people were reluctant to call Richard Nixon a liar. 

We were saturated in the truth and nobody would print it.  Today, conditions are a lot worse.  Robert Kennedy, Jr. is doing what he can on the environmental front.  Here's some of what he has to day in the Salon.com interview: 

Why isn't the media being more of a watchdog...

The consolidation of American media over the past decade or so has dramatically diminished the inquisitiveness of our national press. There are now only 11 companies that control virtually every radio outlet, every TV outlet and every newspaper in our country. And because of that media consolidation, the news bureaus are no longer run by newspeople. They are now corporate profit centers. Most of these companies have liquidated their foreign bureaus, because they're expensive to run. That's why you can't get foreign news in this country; you have to go to the BBC. And they've liquidated their investigative journalism units, because that kind of reporting is also expensive. So news has become the lowest common denominator, which is why you see sensational crime coverage, you see Laci Peterson and Kobe Bryant all the time, you see celebrity gossip, which is really just a form of pornography. And you see murders, which is really just another form of pornography. You just see notorious crimes, and you don't really see much substantive news anymore.

The Tyndall Report, which is the service that analyzes what's on TV, recently surveyed the environmental content on TV news and of the 15,000 minutes of network news that aired last year only 4 percent of them were devoted to the environment. And this is at a time when we have a president who is dismantling 30 years of environmental law, and when we are going through a global environmental crisis, including mass extinctions comparable to the disappearance of the dinosaurs. Global fisheries have dropped to 10 percent of their 1950s levels, the ice caps and glaciers are melting, sea levels are rising, and one out of every four black children in New York has asthma.

Today, while hundreds of thousands of britons protested the presence of George W. Bush, American media focused all its bandwidth on Michael Jackson.

Mike Linksvayer


Mike Linksvayer 04/05/2005 02:09 AM

(Next in a continuing series of blurbs about Commoners I'm thankful to have worked with.)

If there is one person whose heroics are most unsung at Creative Commons, it could very well be Mike Linksvayer. Mike has been the CTO for about two years. He came on at a crucial time, when CC was growing jerkily from a loose network of contractors to a real organization, and he brought stability from the get-go. Stability isn't sexy, and it's not very visible from the outside. If CC is like a band, then Mike's the drummer. People not in bands rarely ever get how much a tasteful, subdued drummer matters. But people in bands know that they're impossibly valuable. And CC, when you boil it down, is all about the drums.

Mike is the force behind, among other things: the vibrant cc-metadata mailing list (our most active), our membership at the W3C, our amazing multi-language license interface and Commons Deeds (have you taken a good look at our stuff in Suomesk i?, Dutch? -- amazing!), the discovery and harnessing of the mighty talent called Nathan Yergler (profiled here earlier), the move to leverage CC Search off Nutch's open code base, countless tech developments and deals, a huge chunk of our blog posts, and who-knows-how-many other technological things that I don't know about (because I simply don't understand them). Something else you may not know: He also knows the the nitty-gritty of our licenses as well as anyone.

Mike's got a fine, bleak sense of humor, which I for one appreciate. This year he sported the best, most efficient Halloween costume -- shorts, and a tshirt declaring a single phrase -- that I've seen in a while. Maybe the same fearlessness that fuels his humor also drives his ability to call anyone on their b.s. -- a skill and a will that are rare and crucial in this "space."

Another thing I love about Mike is his taste. I'm a firm believer in the notion that the more stuff you hate, the better taste you have. Mike, I can testify, hates a lot of stuff. Which means he loves the stuff only really worth loving. So I've learned a lot from him -- about what arguments are too cheesy, what sentiments too sentimental, and not least, what Bay Area radio is actually worth listening to.

Here's a toast to Mike Linksvayer, in the hope I get to work with him again very soon. All of you who still get to are luckier even than you might think.

Robert X. Cringely on Palladium


Robert X. Cringely on Palladium 07/02/2002 01:44 AM
This week, Microsoft announced Palladium through an exclusive story in Newsweek written by Steven Levy, who ought to have known better. Palladium is the code name for a Microsoft project to make all Internet communication safer by essentially pasting a digital certificate on every application, message, byte, and machine on the Net, then encrypting the data EVEN INSIDE YOUR COMPUTER PROCESSOR. Palladium compatible hardware (presumably chipsets and motherboards) will come from both AMD and Intel, and the software will, of course, come from Microsoft. That software is what I had dubbed TCP/MS.

The point of all this is simple. It may actually make the Internet somewhat safer. But the real purpose of this stuff, I fear, is to take technology owned by nobody (TCP/IP) and replace it with technology owned by Redmond. That's taking the Internet and turning it into MSN. Oh, and we'll all have to buy new computers.

Robert Crumb -- The Master


Robert Crumb -- The Master 03/31/2005 12:10 PM
The Guardian has created an entire section on their web site dedicated to Robert Crumb, everyone's most loved/hated cartoonist and the star of Terry Zwigoff's amazing 1994 documentary "Crumb." Its well worth a look.

Interviewer: What are the purposes of satire? Crumb: To give us all relief from these taboos and these nervous tensions where things can't be talked about. So humor and satire are a safety valve for releasing these nervous tensions. But there's such a thing as cruel humor. A lot of old time humor is based on making fun of some ethnic group - it's not so funny for us any more.

And in case you're in the dark on who R. Crumb is, try this.

Mike Rowe Keeps Raking It In


Mike Rowe Keeps Raking It In 02/10/2004 02:49 AM

Canadian teen makes money from feud with Microsoft: Mike Rowe sold all the correspondence between himself and Microsoft for about $1,000.

Bids for a 25-page letter from Microsoft lawyers, an inch-thick book outlining their case to the World Intellectual Property Organization in Geneva and e-mails between Rowe and lawyers had reached as much as 120,000 dollars (90,000 US dollars) during the 10-day online auction, but those were dismissed as bogus.

"Daniel" and I get some good programming done last night. We have been pairing up the past few weeks to work on some type of project. After a few weeks of what can only be called "Spikes", we settled in and are beginning to get some real user stories mapped out and some code written to fulfill them. Daniel chronicled the session below. Daniel and I are a good Pairing team and we go back a long way which helps. But it can also lead to unwanted sidetracks. Last night we stayed focused and didn't stray too far from the chosen path. Onward!

Mike Rowe Settlement


Mike Rowe Settlement 01/24/2004 05:04 AM
Microsoft has reached an agreement with Mike Rowe, the Canadian teenager who was using the Web site mikerowesoft.com in alleged violation of the Microsoft tradmark. In exchange for Mike turning over the mikerowesoft.com domain to Microsoft, the company has:
  • Agreed to help direct any traffic from mikerowesoft.com to Rowe's new Web site (which he's currently working on) to make sure he doesn’t lose any business. The company will pay any out-of-pocket expenses related to this change, including cost associated with changing over to the new url and any other expenses. (The Rowe family is now calculating those expenses.)
  • Invited Mike and his family on to the Microsoft campus for the company's Microsoft Research Tech Fest in March. The company will pay for the travel and accommodations. No promises, but it's possible he could meet Bill Gates, depending on the Microsoft chairman's schedule, Desler said.
  • Agreed to pay for Mike to get Microsoft Certification training. Depending on which courses he chooses, this could lead him to become a certified support technician, or system administrator, or something along those lines.
  • Agreed to give Mike a subscription to MSDN, the Microsoft Developer Network Web site, with various tools for developing software around Microsoft products.
  • Agreed to give Mike an Xbox game system, complete with a number of games of his choosing.
