Founding Father

Founding Father 05/12/2004 11:17 AM
"He could separate personal honor from political convictions. A recurring theme of his career? The superiority of forgiveness over revenge". Ron Chernow's biography of Alexander Hamilton puts "the father of American government" -- the illegitimate orphan from the West Indies who rose to become George Washington's most trusted adviser only to be snared in a sex scandal and killed in a duel by Vice President Aaron Burr -- under a new light. Thomas Jefferson after all, his great adversary, foresaw a nation of independent yeomen farmers. It was Hamilton who foresaw a powerful nation of cities, banks, stock, exchanges. When Jeffersonians favored congressional power, Hamilton argued vigorously that the executive branch was the chief engine of the government. When the Constitution was ratified over the objections of anti-Federalists, Gore Vidal relates, “a parade featuring a ship called The Hamilton, on a float, sailed triumphantly along Wall Street as its ghost still does today.” Anecdote: during the Constitutional Convention of 1787, Franklin suggested that there be a pause for prayer. Many delegates supported the move, except for Hamilton. "He did not see the necessity of calling in foreign aid." (.pdf file)

My father died

My father died 09/19/2004 05:50 PM

Some people come out over the web, others have been married or given birth.

For me - I'm going to deal with the death of my father.

He died while I was in Europe and I choice to deal with his death until now - as I was in the middle of a micro-content roadshow - my self-titled quest to create new kinds of standards - surrounding people, reviews, media, events and listings.

I decided that he would have wanted it this way.

I needed to give myself some time to get over the intitial shock that my father was dead and that I wasn't by his bedside when he passed. I had just seen him a few days earlier - as I came through Chicago on my way up to Michigan to be with Lisa, Mimi and Lucy (they were staying at her mother's house in Grand Haven, Michigan - right on a bluff overlooking the lake.)

I could have gone back. I could have blown off the roadshow and stayed by his bedside. But what's the point? Would it have made his passing any easier? Maybe.

Would it have helped me deal with his dying. Probably have made it worse.

Would it have helepd the family deal with

Was I afraid to sit there and watch him die? Hell yes!

So we headed to NYC for dinner #1 - and a party after at my friend Kenny Shaffer's. Kenny's TV2Me brings U.S. television signals to Monte Carlo and Moscow for rich gamblers who can afford cable TV accounts in NYC. He'd like to be able to do this legally.

I got to meet Scott Mathews and see A my Harmon pregnant with Sasha.

I got to meet some video bloggers getting ready to deal with the RNC. And we stayed at Marc Barrot's apartment - the main guy behind WebOutliner.

The image above is my eldest son Aryeh and I.

The Latest On The Father Of The DVD

The Latest On The Father Of The DVD 06/28/2004 05:22 AM
A year and a half ago, we wrote about Warren Lieberfarb getting fired from Warner Brothers. Lieberfarb is often credited as the "father of the DVD," who fought long and hard to get everyone on the same page to offer the DVD. Newsweek is now running an article looking at the story a year and a half later, where Lieberfarb is still not particularly liked in the industry he helped save. The article also has the overall background story of how he got warring parties together in order to build the DVD. While he's still fighting with Time Warner over his compensation, he's now working for Microsoft on the next generation of DVD technologies. It would have been a lot more impressive if he would have taken his deal making skills and energy to get the entertainment industry to realize the power of peer-to-peer networking, rather than just trying to rehash his last success story. The story is positioned as if Lieberfarb realized the importance of getting everyone together on this particular "disruptive" technology. It's too bad he doesn't appear to be paying attention to the much bigger disruptive technology that's out there.

The Father of the Shopping Mall

The Father of the Shopping Mall 12/24/2003 12:10 PM
The Father of the Shopping Mall "His most remarkable innovation--unveiled in Edina, Minn., in 1956--was the first enclosed shopping mall, a climate-controlled community of retailing under a single vast canopy. But it was intended to be more than just a place to shop. It was to provide a center to otherwise centerless developments, offering community, entertainment and even enlightenment. Gruen lamented that Americans, at the time, were living 'detached lives in detached houses.' With his shopping-center designs, Mr. Hardwick writes, 'Gruen hoped to offer a corrective to this grim and soulless American environment.' "

Vipin Jain speaks out about .1X and basic security issues on wireless networks: Straight from the horse's mouth, we hear about the utility of 802.1X, which will almost certainly become the authentication method of choice at hot spots before 2005 for all the reasons he cites. I expect to see more and more 802.1X-for-hire that could serve home users and small enterprise users alike. One funny statement by Jain: 802.1x has been adopted in operating systems such as Linux. There are commercial Linux 802.1X clients (from Meetinghouse, etc.), but the open-source project is still a work in progress....
