Powell forces press aide to let him
answer Meet the Press question

Powell forces press aide to let him
answer Meet the Press question 05/17/2004 06:11 AM
Colin Powell appeared on Meet the Press this weekend, and his appearance was marred by his press secretary moving the camera and attempting to end the interview early when Russert, the interviewer, started to ask a hardball question about the fictional Nigerian yellow-cake uranium that Powell used as an excuse to go to war in Iraq.

Most noteworthy about this event was that Powell, rebuked the press-secretary on air, demanded that the camera be trained on him again, and then answered the question, describing the intelligence he'd received as "deliberately misleading."

Lisa Rein's got the video up -- highly recommended.

EMILY MILLER, STATE DEPARTMENT PRESS AIDE: You're off.

SECRETARY POWELL: I am not off.

EMILY MILLER, PRESS AIDE: No. They can't use it, they're editing it.

SECRETARY POWELL: He's still asking the questions.

EMILY MILLER, PRESS AIDE: He was not ...

SECRETARY POWELL: Tim, I am sorry I lost you.

MR. RUSSERT: I am right here Mr. Secretary. I would hope they would put you back on camera. I don't know who did that.

EMILY MILLER, PRESS AIDE: He was going to go for another five minutes.

SECRETARY POWELL: We've really scre...

MR. RUSSERT: I think that was one of your staff Mr. Secretary. I don't think that's appropriate.

SECRETARY POWELL: Emily, get out of the way. Bring the camera back please. (Camera returns to the interview subject) I think we're back on Tim, go ahead with your last question.

PHP-Con is doing humorous interviews with some of the speakers to promote the event.  Here's the one with John Coggeshall:

When was your first PHP?

John Coggeshall: Sitting in a darkened smoke filled room... I was almost out of money but a friend of mine told me she [PHP] was good for a trick or two and didn't charge much.

His comments on Perl, Java, and Visual Basic are really good.  You can read more of this over at the PHP- Con site.

For Sun , Microsoft Settlement Is No
Joke 04/19/2004 11:03 AM
We may miss Scott McNealy's jabs at Microsoft, but the money from the recent settlement will inject new life into Sun, which badly needs a transfusion. Many of us are just now coming to grips with the most serious implication of the April 2 settlement between Sun and Microsoft: Scott McNealy's keynote speeches just got a lot duller. The Sun CEO has made a career of his stand-up routine over the years, entertaining thousands with such classic zingers as calling Windows the "giant hairball"; Active Directory, "Captive Directory"; and .Net, "Dot Not" or "Not Yet." And, in case of computer crashes, "Call 1-800-CTL-ALT-DEL."

Companies Who Can't Take A Joke, But Can
Push A Lie 02/12/2004 02:16 PM
It's no secret that, on the internet, if you don't like something and try to get it taken down, you're only going to draw a lot more attention to it. However, corporations still haven't gotten this message. They seem to get especially annoyed at parodies, complaining that people might be tricked by them. Here's an article that takes these companies to task for not being able to take a joke, while at the same time having so-called "independent" organizations that are paid by them set up advocacy websites that are nothing more than a front for the company or group in question. In other words, companies get upset about advocacy that goes against them and try to force the sites down, worrying that people will get "confused." At the same time, they're hiding the fact that they're behind these other advocacy sites (which, some might say is confusing readers, as well). As the writer of the article points out, even if they're right, they're doing themselves harm by not being upfront and honest about these sites: "The more successful the strategy in the short term, the more it will eventually corrode trust in the long. People persuaded by such sites will feel betrayed when it becomes evident they were duped. And it won't even matter if the pseudo sites have truth on their side: when a messenger is exposed as an impostor, their credibility is destroyed." Another example of short-term thinking from corporations that do them much more damage in the long term.

Not An April Fool’s Joke

Not An April Fool’s Joke 04/01/2005 05:24 PM
Just foolishness. The XML Binary Characterization Working Group has issued their f inal report which recommends (surprise, surprise) that the W3C produce a “Binary XML” specification. Elliotte Rusty Harold nails it. I don’t care if anyone wants to go off and produce their own data interchange format, binary or not, open or not, standardized or not, mapped to XML or not; as long as they don’t call it XML. “Binary XML” is an oxymoron. And I should point out that the people at Sun who are building a binary data format with a mapping to XML are calling it something else entirely. These Binary-XML people are charging headlong onto the top of a very long, very steep, very slippery slope. [Update: Further joy. I see that this poorly-labelled table asserts that XML prevents both “processing efficiency” and “forward compatibility”. Glad to hear it.]

More Trouble For The Great Broadband
Joke

More Trouble For The Great Broadband
Joke 06/29/2004 05:30 PM
For many, many years, there have been stories about broadband over powerlines. Every few years it seems to make a big comeback... in the press. The press loves the idea, but when it comes down to the actual technology it never gets very far. Trials get announced, and then quickly fade away. Even though Michael Powell has declared it the "great broadband hope," once again, trials are ending early, as the technology is proving to be problematic. As this article notes, fixing those technology problems "may clash with the concept of making a profit." Broadband over powerlines is looking like yet another "technology of the future... that always will be." It may be time to put it away for a few more years until some new reporters pick it up around 2007.

Is It Still Satire If You Can Find
Someone Who Missed The Joke?

Is It Still Satire If You Can Find
Someone Who Missed The Joke? 12/24/2003 12:08 PM
As expected, it's shaping up to be something of a slow news day, but there are still a few good stories out there. This one, found over at Tech Law Advisor shows why people without a sense of humor shouldn't be allowed to hire (or be) lawyers. A few years back, after a judge ordered the detention of a 13-year-old kid for handing in a school essay with a "violent tone", the Dallas Observer wrote up a satire piece about the same folks having a 6-year-old arrested for writing a book report on Maurice Sendak's insanely popular children's book "Where the Wild Things Are." In the article, they made up ridiculous quotes ("We've considered having her certified to stand trial as an adult, but even in Texas there are some limits." and "Any implication of violence in a school situation, even if it was just contained in a first-grader's book report, is reason enough for panic and overreaction.") and attributed them to real people who were involved in the original case. Those people are now suing for libel. Of course, satire and opinion are protected speech, but the people in question are claiming that because some people don't have a sense of humor and missed the satire, it's not satire at all. If that argument stood, then all you would need to do to unprotect satire is find someone with no sense of humor who missed the joke - and rush them to the courthouse to have them help you file your lawsuit. Meanwhile, it seems like the judges are realizing that this case is pointless. Yet more evidence that we live in a society where if anyone says anything you don't want to hear, you sue first and act offended later.
