In response to customer demands (and many long discussions on the REALBasic mailing list), REAL Software has a nnounced that RB 5.5 will be capable of cross-compiling apps for Red Hat and SuSE distributions of Linux, with other distros being added according to demand. You'll still need either a Mac or Windows box to create and cross-compile the app for Linux. You'll have to wait for the Linux-based REALBasic IDE, but REAL Software says that they intend to make one available in a later version.

RB 5.5 is expected to be released in the first quarter of 2004.

Detecting proximity over the Internet
and other dumb DRM notions

Detecting proximity over the Internet
and other dumb DRM notions 12/27/2004 10:39 AM
Cory Doctorow: One of the recurring themes in the DRM negotiations I sit in on is figuring out how far away two different computers are from one another, so that an entertainment company can enforce crazy, paranoid "business models" like, "Buy a movie for viewing on as many PCs as you'd like provided that they're all within 10 feet of one another."

My cow-orker, EFF Staff Technologist Seth Schoen, has posted a little blog entry about the inherent failings in all the DRM vendors' systems for determining "proximity" of two devices over the Internet.

...DRM vendors are falling back on other tricks. One you hear a lot about is "IP TTL" (a part of the Internet Protocol specification where routers are supposed to subtract 1 from a header field, to prevent a misaddressed packet from floating around the Internet forever). That doesn't provide evidence either, though, because (1) IP headers like TTL are under the minute control of end-users wielding firewall software, and (2) "bridging" software doesn't subtract 1 from TTL in the first place because conceptually it is not acting as a router.

So the last resort of people trying to use TCP/IP and get evidence about locality or proximity has been to measure latency -- how long it takes for one device to communicate with another. Latency is harder to tamper with because there are physical limitations like the speed of light. For example, you can never get any message from New York to Paris in under 19.5 milliseconds because that is how long it takes light to go from one to the other. If you're using a satellite in geosynchronous orbit, there is a magic number around 250 milliseconds (depending on your latitude) because geosynchronous orbits can only occur at one particular altitude and it takes light about 250 milliseconds to cross that entire path. (Geosynchronous orbit is far away!) So some systems have been adopting rules about not sending some programming to devices that take more than a certain number of milliseconds to answer you when you say hello and ask them for acknowledgment, on the theory that devices that answer really quickly plausibly are on the same local network, whereas device that answer more slowly probably are not.

Distance from the Equator and proximity
to the coast explains the wealth of
nations? 03/17/2005 03:24 AM

A Colombian friend asked me the other day how Chile was.  I said "It was strange to be in a Latin American country where they don't blame the U.S. for whatever ails them.  In Chile, instead of bitching about George W., they just quietly go to university, build factories, plant farms, and sell their products worldwide."  She took this as an implication that other Latin Americans were lazy and, instead of working, preferred to complain about the U.S.  She said that all of the poverty or wealth of nations can be explained by distance from the Equator (more is better) and distance from the sea coast (closer is better).  Bolivia, therefore, is a guaranteed loser.  Most of Africa likewise.  What is it about the Equator that is so deadly for economic development in her view?  Tropical diseases and a difficult growing climate.

How do we like this theory compared to the alternatives?  Alternative 1 is my personal theory, which is that wealth comes from investment and that countries with stable governments and efficient courts are the ones where people feel comfortable investing [this has some troubling implications for the U.S. because corporate managers are taking most of the profits from public corporations home as salary, thereby reducing the amount of capital available to invest and decreasing investor confidence].  Alternative 2 is Jared Diamond's, put forward in his book Guns, Germs and Steel.  Diamond claims that economic development only works well in continents that are oriented east-west like Eurasia.  This way an agricultural technique that is invented in one place can be spread throughout the continent.  North-south oriented continents such as Africa don't have this advantage because a technique that works in the plains of South Africa won't work in the central jungle or northern desert.  The lack of development of North America, which is oriented east-west, is explained by the fact that humans came here suddenly and wiped out all the animals that might otherwise have been domesticated.

David Pescovitz: My latest article for TheFeature is about the Urban Pollution Project, a big research effort in the UK that uses bike-mounted carbon monoxide sensors and bluejacking to rate the air we breathe.

"Mobile sensors that are geographically tracked could... give a broad and dense picture of how pollution affects urban spaces and the people within them," says Urban Pollution investigator Anthony Steed, a computer science researcher at the University College London. "If you have several hundred or thousand sensors, you could give them to commuters and they'd make a map of the city's pollution."
