Symbian Likely To Lead Smartphone OS Market Through End of Decade
Symbian Likely To Lead Smartphone OS Market Through End of Decade04/26/2004 10:10 AM Despite inroads by Microsoft's Windows Mobile OS, which has
demonstrated success with Motorola among other handset vendors
recently, ABI Research believes that Symbian will continue to lead the
market for cell phone standardized operating systems. In a market that
is still driven by proprietary OS, on the order of 98% this year,
Symbian, Microsoft and Linux are fighting over a small portion of the
total handset market. But 2% of handsets shipped - essentially all
handsets defined as "Smartphones" -- still amount to about 10 million
handsets a year. And ABI Research predicts that Smartphones and
connected PDAs will represent nearly a quarter of all handsets shipped
by 2009.
Study: Symbian Far Ahead in Smart-Phone Market04/26/2004 03:47 PM ABI Research finds that powerful backing and fear of Microsoft
domination will keep the operating system ahead of competitors for
years to come.

Carrette
Reminds me of the time the Malaysian government sent a software team
to Canada to do technology transfer for a flight simulator system.
After spending 2 years in Canada, they returned, and i asked one of
the team members how the Canadian coders designed this powerful and
complex system. I was expecting some detailed software methodology
involving multiple phases. He told me, "they just hire a bunch of
talented programmers, teach them the physics, and tell them to hack!"

I posted this
comment a few weeks ago, but i never clarified what i thought of
this quotation - until now...
Let's say you learnt a subject really well, and were asked to teach
others. You enjoy teaching and others admire your teaching style. Then
one day, you throw away all your notes and teach off-the-cuff, from
memory.
You have to really know your stuff before you'd dare do that.
We'll that's what I think George Carrette meant by "Just Hack". If you
don't know your stuff inside-out, upside-down and every-which-way,
"Just Hack" is probably not for you.

Hack your Metabolism
Hack your Metabolism01/07/2004 05:32 PM Salon has an article about
Hackers on Atkins, and in a shameless display of
self-aggrandizement, yours truly is featured in the company of
uber-bloggers Cory Doctorow
and Doc Searls. As my brother
smirked to me in an email response after reading the article, "four
overweight guys lose weight! stop the presses!", my response was to
quote from Cory in the article:
"Maybe it will make us all grow third arms and go blind in 20 years,"
quips Doctorow. "It's sort of hard to tell. It represents a kind of
hacker's approach, grounded as it is in jack-legged engineering rather
than science."
The only other thing that I want to make clear about Atkins is that it
clearly isn't for everybody. It is a radical change in eating habits,
not well-suited for everyone, especially vegetarians. I can only
speak from my own personal experience that it works for me.

Can You Hack the Vote?
Can You Hack the Vote?08/05/2004 06:01 PM Electronic voting systems have drawn fire from courts, lawmakers, and
citizens groups--and now they're under attack by hackers. It's an
organized assault, too. E-voting technology expert Rebecca Mercuri, a
Harvard research fellow who has been outspoken in her opposition to
such systems, has issued a "Hack the Vote" challenge, trying
to illustrate what she calls their unreliability and vulnerability.
She unveiled the so-called Mercuri Challenge at the recent Black Hat Briefings and Defcon 12 security
conferences.
Preelection Action Urged
Mercuri suggests electronic voting machines be hacked during their
preelection testing, so officials will abandon them before an actual
election. "People in the election community say this technology
is bulletproof," Mercuri says. "It's not." She
especially opposes use of electronic voting technology in its current
state, which does not allow for a verifiable backup. "I'm not asking anyone to
break any laws, we just want the opportunity to hack e-voting systems
to prove that it can or cannot be done," she says.
