07/04/2004 12:17 PMOn Independence Day, 2004, how fares American liberty?
Brilliantly, if you compare the United States with the tyrannies that
still control the lives of countless people.
Not badly, if liberty means the right to seek economic gain in a
capitalist system -- especially if you're starting with the right
connections and a privileged background.
Not as well, when you look at growing pressures on longstanding
freedoms. Governments have exploited fears of terrorism to curb many
precious liberties, and technology has continued to help snoops of all
kinds invade our privacy.

Ah, finally, my second book is
on its way to the printer.
Yes, it's mostly reprints of articles which you've already read on
this site over the last four years. But there are three huge
advantages to the book version. 1) It has been professionally edited.
I have finally learned to use semicolons instead of commas to separate
complete sentences, and somebody smarter than me has sorted out all
the "whiches" and the "thats." 2) You don't have to read it on a
computer. 3) You can hurl it at your boss or coworkers to make a
point, and the impact will be much more powerful than emailing a
URL.
I'm hoping it will be out in a month or so.

One of the biggest weaknesses of Microsoft Outlook has been the
search feature. It takes so long for Outlook to search that the
feature is almost useless.
Searching is not a hard problem, and a lot of plug-ins sprang up to
solve this problem. Lookout
was one of the best. It just works. Searching five years of
accumulated email takes less than a second. Indexing is done quietly
in the background and never slows down your system. Suddenly email is
useful again.
So what happens? Microsoft
buys Lookout. That's nice, good for them.
But look more closely at the Q&A:
Q: Why can't I download Lookout anymore?
We will be focusing our efforts on integrating our expertise and
working on next-generation technologies.
Huh? What's going on?
Q: What is Microsoft going to do with Lookout? ...
The existing Lookout product will no longer be available, but its
technology will be part of an exciting vision that MSN has for
delivering new and innovative search services.
MSN?! Lookout is going to be part of MSN? What about
Outlook?
Our vision is to take search beyond today’s basic
Internet search services to deliver direct answers to people’s
questions, and help them find information from a broad range of
sources.
What? What the hell does this have to do with searching
email? Could Microsoft have possibly bought Lookout just to shut them
down? Even at my most paranoid, I can't for the life of me figure out
why Microsoft wants searching in Outlook to be worthless.
Maybe just Hanlon's
Razor: “Never attribute to malice that which is adequately
explained by stupidity.”

I know that Rome empties out in August, but if any Joel on Software
readers plan to be there on Monday, August 16th, it would be nice to
get together for dinner. So far, we've done these dinners in Berkeley,
Oslo, and Montréal, with great success. We'll take over a room in a
restaurant, eat, drink, be merry, and talk about software development.
If you can attend, or would like to suggest a good place to meet, post
a message here.
Marshall T. Rose,
in RFC 3117: “Counter-intuitively, Postel's robustness
principle (‘be conservative in what you send, liberal in what
you accept’) often leads to deployment problems. Why? When a new
implementation is initially fielded, it is likely that it will
encounter only a subset of existing implementations. If those
implementations follow the robustness principle, then errors in the
new implementation will likely go undetected. The new implementation
then sees some, but not widespread deployment. This process repeats
for several new implementations. Eventually, the not-quite-correct
implementations run into other implementations that are less liberal
than the initial set of implementations. The reader should be able to
figure out what happens next.”

Stormtroopers on July 4 parade

Inkeeper2097 sez, "My family and I went to a parade on the 4th of
July. One of the participants
was the Ohio Garrison of Storm Troopers.
As they were coming down the street I told my 5 yr old to go stand
in the road so I could take his picture with them.
As you can see from the photo, a couple of Storm Troopers got out of
formation to pose for the picture.
My 2 year old was scared to death and ran to Mom. I kept telling my 5
year old not to be scared and to stand still.
The look on my boys face, priceless.
Fun was had by all."

Publication date to be announced within 24 hours. Very exciting for
