Is Wi-Fi dangerous? 11/11/2003 11:42 AM
A study by a Swedish scientist may put the adoption of wireless networking education solutions such as Apple's iBook Wireless Mobile Lab in jeopardy. The study indicates that wireless network transmissions increase potential health risks such as headaches and future senility. According to ABCnews.com, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration says 2.4GHz and 5GHz wireless hubs are well within the acceptable safety range, but some school boards, such as the Oak Parks school board in Illinois...

It’s Not Dangerous

It’s Not Dangerous 03/14/2005 05:56 PM
I have given several press interviews in recent days, all more or less along the same lines: someone’s been assigned to write a story about people being fired for blogging. Recent pieces from AP and CNET are pushing this spin, going on and on and on about the risks. Except for, it’s all a bunch of BS. For most people, blogging is a career-booster, both in your current job and when you’re looking for your next one. This fragment includes, among other things, Ten Reasons Why Blogging Is Good For Your Career...

Music is too dangerous

Music is too dangerous 06/06/2005 12:11 AM
Today's copyright insanity comes from Bruce Schneier's blog:

A pen (and a flute) is truly mightier (and scarier) than a sword... I have an idea (for free use, just remember to pay me): Why don't we just license musicians the same way we license driving? I mean, obviously the music arts are very dangerous, as one could inadvertently play music that someone else has already invented, so we should slap obligatory training and yearly license fee for anyone who practices or performs music. This money could be used to pay starving artists (the mythical creatures that inhabit the caves in Kansas). In addition, we could also license listening to the music: make everyone pay every time they hear a tune that has been copyrighted. (No wait, I think that's already being done.)

For the humour impaired, the above paragraph is sarcasm. S-A-R-C-A-S-M. Or irony. I always get them mixed up. But I reserve the right to have been right if someone seriously suggests in the future that music performances in private establishments (like homes or offices) should be stopped because someone might play copyrighted songs.

Is copyright still enabling innovation and creativity? Maybe a hundred years ago - but today... I don't know. It certainly doesn't look like it anymore.

This is bad, because such embedding is getting very easy and common.

CoolWebSearch "most dangerous program" 01/05/2005 06:29 PM
It’s anything but cool. CoolWebSearch (CWS) is the most dangerous program on Webroot Software’s list of the 10 worst spyware and adware threats. It’s a vicious one, all right. CWS exploits security flaws and completely hijacks Internet Explorer so you can’t do anything with it. Removal is difficult because of CWS’s many variants and the fact that it hides itself to prevent its being viewed by normal means. Botched removal attempts often leave the bewildered…

Where Having Sex is a Crime: Criminalization and Decriminalization of Homosexual Acts. As Western countries ponder the legalization of gay marriage, it's well worth keeping in mind that queer men and women are living in the dark ages elsewhere. The International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission tries to keep track of progressive and regressive steps, and advocate for liberty. It's a tough job.

David Pescovitz: Kaden Harris builds exquisitely-crafted "Dangerous Things" for your desktop, such as miniature working guillotines, catapults, and the Hypnodisk (pictured here), a staple of evil mythical masterminds. Sensory Impact interviewed Harris about his "antiques from a parallel universe":

"I did a prototype of a ‘pitching machine’ sort of thingie powered by 2 sewing machine motors that was supposed to fire anything from pencils to Sharpies, but it turned out to be insanely over-powered…workplace murders would have gone through the roof if I’d brought it to market. I have a newfound respect for 2H pencils these days."

Bendable Lampposts For Less Dangerous
Crashes

Bendable Lampposts For Less Dangerous
Crashes 12/17/2003 01:12 PM
Years ago, I was driving down a winding, snow covered hill, and as the road turned left and I turned the steering wheel left, the car kept going straight - right into a lamppost. I'll admit, it wasn't the most fun experience of my life - though, amazingly, I did no damage to myself or the car's engine. The car's body was a different story. But despite the front of the car wrapping itself around the lamppost, I eventually drove the now oddly shaped car home. I wasn't going particularly fast when the accident occurred (it was a winding, snow covered hill, after all), so I can only imagine what happens to cars (and drivers) who hit lampposts at much higher speeds. Over in the UK, they're trying to do something about that by putting up more flexible lampposts that will "bend" under a car when hit. They actually have two different kinds of bendable lampposts. In the city, the lamppost is designed to buckle - so that it moves, but doesn't fall. In more rural settings (where it's less likely pedestrians are around) the posts are designed to fall. Already, the posts have been involved in a few accidents - including one of a car driving at 90 miles per hour - and none have resulted in driver deaths. One other benefit is that the material used to make these posts is apparently recyclable, which I guess will be helpful when trying to decide what to do with the crumpled post after an accident.

California's Dangerous Prison Guards

Few organizations in California have anything near the clout wielded by the prison guards. Their union is mean and powerful, protecting what I hope is a minority of rogue guards whose actions have disgraced the system and the state. It needs to be brought to heel.

Are reusable water bottles dangerous?

Are reusable water bottles dangerous? 04/05/2005 11:29 AM
David Pescovitz: At The F Blog, former BB guestblogger Jenn Shreve writes about her quest to find an environmentally-reasonable yet non-toxic portable (and potable) water container:

Being the green gal that I am, but not wishing to sacrifice my own health for the planet (sorry, earth, just being honest), I decided just to re-use the flimsy plastic water bottles for as long as I could. I was happy with this solution for quite some time, until I learned the horrible truth: HARMFUL BACTERIA! Yes, with each refreshing sip I was backwashing germs into my water and providing them with a warm, wet place to grow.

So I did what any bacteria-fearing primate would do and bought a nice, reusable Nalgene bottle. Boy oh boy, nothing makes you look or feel more like a tree-hugging, mushroom hunting nature girl than one of those bright, hard plastic bottles! Until it comes out that Nalgene gives you BRAIN DAMAGE! Yes, Bisphenol A, used to make Nalgene bottles and other hard plastic projects, apparently seeps into the body and can, in certain doses, mess with the function of the brain. (I’m paraphrasing/exaggerating and not everybody agrees, so look it up.) I could almost dismiss the fear as environmentalist fear mongering, but it turns out that California legislators take the threat seriously enough to consider banning it in children’s products.
