Pablo Neruda liked helicopters

Pablo Neruda liked helicopters 01/01/2005 04:30 PM

One of the delights of Valparaiso is visiting La Sebastiana, one of the houses owned by Pablo Neruda.  In addition to his fondness for Communism, Stalinism, Stalin, Castro, and accumulating property (the guy owned a lot of prime real estate throughout Chile), Neruda asked that a rooftop heliport be incorporated into the design of his 1961 Valparaiso house.

p.s.  Happy New Year to all!  The fireworks display last night in Valpo/Vina was the largest that I have ever experienced and filled the harbor across a stretch of several miles with rockets from maybe 20 barges.  Chileans know how to throw a good party.

Email is dying, or Your resume has been
marked as SPAM 02/10/2004 02:56 AM
Today I ran across an entry on Dave Sifry's weblog that noted that Technorati was hiring. I went to Technorati's job page and found a job that looks like it was made for me, as good as the dream job that got away from me a year ago. Excitedly, I sat down and wrote up a cover letter, pointing out all the ways in which I would be a perfect fit for the job (and thinking about how much fun it would be). At the end, I debated how to include my resume. If Dave is processing applicants through a recruiter, they probably want resumes in Microsoft Word, which seems to be the only format that most recruiters can deal with, for reasons unknown to me. On the other hand, Dave is a longtime Linux geek. I remember that I've exchanged emails with him in the past. I check my email archive -- aha, my last email from him was written using Ximian Evolution 1.4. Better include my resume inline as ASCII as well, with a link to the online version of my resume, I think. So I send off my resume and cover letter and happily turn to other tasks. Half an hour later I check email, and do my usual quick scan through my junkmail folder. What do I spot but the cc'd copy of my cover letter and resume. I just started testing a new version of the Spamnix spam filter that added Bayesian filtering. Spamnix is a Eudora plug-in based on Spam Assassin. It decided that the email and resume that I sent to Dave was SPAM: SPAM: ------------------------ Spamnix Spam Report ------------------------- SPAM: Spamnix identified this message as spam. This report shows which SPAM: rules matched the message and how many points each rule contributed. SPAM: SPAM: Content analysis details: (5.4 hits, 5.0 required) SPAM: 5.4 BAYES_99 BODY: Bayesian spam probability is 99 to 100% Apparently words like Standards, Marketing, System, Proven, Global, Experience, President, Technologies, Product, Project, Manager, Director, Startups, and Software, which appear in my resume, are also common in the spam I receive. To some degree this makes sense -- resumes and cover letters, like spam, are a form of self-promotion. This is probably one of the reasons that I find job hunting painful, since I was trained to be modest about my accomplishments, and am shy by nature. But it creates...

Zoë Discovers Life in Chile

Zoë Discovers Life in Chile 03/19/2005 02:54 AM
We reported last August that Zoë, the CMU prototype planetary rover, was being sent to the barren Atacama Desert in Chile for testing. According to articles in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette and Nature, testing has resulted in Zoë accurately "discovering" life using onboard sensors. During simulated missions, the robot was able to discovered and identify two forms of life: some visible lichens and some bacteria. The robot senses fluorescence from cells that contain chlorophyll and is also able to spray special dyes that bind to and identify DNA, protein, lipids or carbohydrates. The technologies being tested will likely find their way into future NASA planetary exploration robots.
