Speaking of The Times'
Circuits section, I have it on good word that when they are slaving
overnight by gaslight to complete the next day's column, they seek
answers to their more difficult queries regard the Tecknologikal Arts
inside one of these Encyclopaedia Britannica First Edition Replica
sets. As soon as I can cart enough coal through the cobblestone
streets to save the $195 I might just have to pick up a set for
myself. (Thanks, Nathan!)

Wikipedia versus Britannica
Wikipedia versus Britannica
09/07/2004 10:55 AM
Cory Doctorow:
Ed Felten's doing some empirical comparisons of the online Britannica
versus Wikipedia, and Wikipedia's doing pretty good!
Virtual memory: Wikipedia has a pretty good entry; Britannica has no
entry for virtual memory, and doesn't appear to discuss the concept
elsewhere, either. Verdict: advantage Wikipedia.
Public-key cryptography: Good, accurate entries in both. Verdict:
toss-up.
Microsoft antitrust case: Britannica has only two sentences, saying
that Judge Jackson ruled against Microsoft and ordered a breakup, and
that the Court of Appeals overturned the breakup but agreed that
Microsoft had broken the law. That's correct, but it leaves out the
settlement. Wikipedia's entry is much longer but error-prone. Verdict:
big advantage to Britannica.
Overall verdict: Wikipedia's advantage is in having more, longer, and
more current entries. If it weren't for the Microsoft-case entry,
Wikipedia would have been the winner hands down. Britannica's
advantage is in having lower variance in the quality of its entries.

Living replica of set for TV show
"Dallas" -- in Romania
07/12/2004 02:11 PMBlogger and journalist
Emmanuelle Richard just got back from Romania, where she
photoblogged
these
incredible
snapshots<
/a> of what must be the Nth great wonder of the world -- a gigantic,
sprawling replica of the set of the TV show "Dallas." Even Larry
Hagman said it's a perfect match of the real thing, according to
Emmanuelle:
The florid theme park is not as glorious as it used to be!
"Southforkscu" as locals call it was opened in 1996 in Slobozia,
South-Est of Bucharest, by the King of Romanian cheddar, Ilie
Alexandru: he's one these egomaniac and corrupt nouveau-riche
entrepreneurs typical of post-Communist Eastern European countries.
It's like a cross between an amusement park and a luxury resort.
Originally, visitors could tour the ranch, ride horses, swim in the
swimming pools, visit a small zoo, enjoy the lake and climb the 50
meters Eiffel Tower. And of course, spend a night in the Dallas ranch.
Larry Hagman even visited! But Alexandru went to jail for fraud. A
string of investors have failed to revive the place. One of them, a
Russian dude even painted the ranch in ORANGE! The zoo is closed, the
horses are gone... The Romanian hotel chain now in charge wants to
remodel it, open a night-club. We interviewed the manager - pure
Commie style, just unbelievable. I don't have much faith in this guy's
management!
This artist Sean Snyder produced an exhibit about the esthetics of
the place "Script For Dallas Southfork In Hermes Land, Slobozia,
Romania (2001)" It went to Paris and Berlin (Link). This page contains details about the place and a pic of
the ranch before the paint job. It's quite surreal, especially when
you see the Eiffel Tower from the road, behind rows of
cornfields.

Java Community Process, which makes him
a VIP, and he’s got
a
pointer to its
scholarship program; this
is how you go about getting the seal of approval on your software if
you’re a non-profit or an OSS hacker who can’t afford the regular
process designed for organizations like IBM and BEA. Check out the
recipients. Next, Dave Johnson, who qualifies because he’s about to
start working here, wrote a nice
picture/analysis of the inside of
Rome. With Rome and the Pilgrim
Universal Feed Parser, the
world has two full-function general-purpose syndication feed
wranglers. How many do we need? Hopping over to the other side of
the world, Chandan has a
neat little piece on pricing in India; if you read to
the bottom you’ll find a nastily amusing picture. Tor Norbye
asks an obvious question: what is the caps-lock key for and
why don’t we just get rid of it? In the eye-candy department
Willys Ingersoll posted some
remarkable pictures of
Shanghai. Will Snow, who’s always worth reading, has a
scary story about how to get yourself in big trouble
real fast by shifting
sun.com
infrastructure. In the warm-glow department, check out ML Starkey on
working the holiday weekend. And finally... well, this
is a little weird, and we all know what they say about what nobody
knows on the Internet, but apparently one of our Sun bloggers
is a dog.
