"Happy Talk From Hell" -- Salon reviews
Outfoxed
07/13/2004 03:37 PMSalon has a review of the new documentary about Fox news, called
Outfoxed, which went on sale today and is
now the 11th best-selling DVD on Amazon.
Take the network's "some people say" mantra (as used in my
first paragraph, above). I had watched plenty of Fox News without ever
noticing this -- it's a way of introducing commentary, and
specifically the reflexive right-wing views of the presumptive Fox
core audience, into what is supposed to be news coverage, while
appearing to not quite endorse it. "Some people say that criticizing
the war at a time like this is letting down our men and women in
uniform," or "Some people say Richard Clarke is a political operative
who's trying to sell books." (Or, yes, "Some people are saying that
John Kerry looks French!" -- uttered with a peculiar mixture of
consternation and delight. Gosh, what a weird idea! But now that you
mention it ...!)
Also, here's Fox's
scary rebuttal to the documentary.

: How many lives does Salon have? I just noticed that two years
ago today, we were posting about how they couldn't pay their rent and
were almost gone.
Well, Salon is almost bankrupt. We've heard this before —
Salon is always rumored to be circling the drain, ready to go under in
a blaze of glory. Of course, this time they can't pay their rent, so I
think it's serious.
Yet, they're still around.

12/19/2004 03:24 PMI've been an admirer of Joel Spolsky's
writing on software since I
started reading it several years ago. Last month when I was in New
York I sat down with Joel and had a good long talk about software
development, partly for the purpose of my book research and partly
because I knew he'd be entertaining and thoughtful. Today's Salon
features a
write-up of the interview, pegged in part to the publication of a
book collection of Spolsky's essays.

following:
"Thought you'd like to know that Salon's Premium Institutional
Subscription program for libraries is finally up and running....
Currently we are offering a one year subscription in the $300-400
range and feeds all access to the articles on the site via an IP
authentication system or a single password."

Salon op-ed on DNC bl0ggers
Salon op-ed on DNC bl0ggers
07/29/2004 05:05 AMDanah boyd has adapted her rant about the NYT's dismissal of the DNC
bloggers as "Web diarists" into an op-ed for Salon.
Blogging will not replace traditional journalism, but it presents a
threat to the normative press culture and an opportunity for radical
reporting. Bloggers do place the issue of professionalism under
attack, not by being unprofessional, but by exposing the ways in which
the media operates. As blogging reaches the masses, people are
introduced to information that was not reported because it did not
suit the party line. Bloggers will happily document the power games
that they witness in the press room and will expose future Jayson
Blairs. Bloggers also capture information that the mainstream press
does not yet realize is valuable, which means that ambitious and
digitally minded journalists are constantly scanning the blogs for
information. More and more, journalists are thanking bloggers for new
slants. The competition between journalists and bloggers for readers'
attention results in more diverse and compelling coverage.

Stepheon's Confusion on Salon
Stepheon's Confusion on Salon
04/21/2004 03:23 AMMy copy of Neal Stephenson's
Confusion, the new, enormous sequel to
Quicksilver, arrived in the mail yesterday before I left for
Turin, and it's in my suitcase, waiting for me. Quicksilver was a
remarkable book, a triumphant combination of Stephenson's
trivia-obsessed, research-intensive approach to the precursors of the
information age (viz.
Snow Crash's Nam-Shub of Enki and
Cryptonomicon's Bletchley Park sequences) and his gift for
sprawling, braided stoorylines that combine slapstick action scenes
with intense, emotional passages.
Salon's running a double feature on Stephenson today: a long interview with Neal, and a review by Andrew Leonard. Both are highly recommended -- I
can't wait to sink my teeth into this book.
Science was new and they didn't know how to do it yet. Science was and
is a somewhat contentious thing. Someone's got a theory and they
promulgate that theory and then something else comes along and alters,
improves on or even flatly contradicts it. Now that we've got 350
years of perspective on this, scientists understand that this is how
it's done and there's a mechanism in place for how to do it. It's
refereed journals and it's become institutionalized. They didn't have
that perspective on it. They couldn't stand back and say, Well, my
theory may get contradicted here and there, but this guy who's
contradicting it will get contradicted in turn. They didn't have that
expectation. They didn't have journals. The first two journals were
the Journale de Savants, which was about 1665, and the Proceedings of
the Royal Society, which was right about the same time. Leibniz had to
found his own journal in order to publish his own work. They were kind
of banging around in the dark trying to figure out how to do this.
Hooke, for example, when he figured out how arches work, published it
as an anagram. He condensed the idea into this pithy statement: "The
ideal form of an arch is the form of a chain hanging, flipped upside
down." Then he scrambled the letters to make an anagram and published
it. That way, he wasn't giving away the secret, but if somebody came
along a few years later and claimed that they'd invented it, he could
just unscramble what he'd published. He was establishing precedence.
Hooke squabbled with [Christiaan] Huygens over a bunch of
clock-related inventions. This kind of thing was just rife. It came to
a head in a grotesque way in the priority dispute over [who invented]
the calculus. That was so embarrassing to the whole institution of
science and people were so nauseated by it that it taught everyone a
lesson. After that, no one would dream of doing what Newton did, which
was to invent something really important and then sit on it for 30
years.

Salon: Mozilla rising
Salon: Mozilla rising
09/11/2002 06:43 PMBut the best part about Mozilla is that it is not just a browser.
Scores of developers are now talking about using Mozilla as a
"platform" -- that is, using Mozilla's underlying code to build
non-browser applications, like calendar programs and e-mail programs
and even Linux desktops. You don't need to download Mozilla to use
these apps, as some are distributed with their own stripped-down
version of Mozilla's engine -- which, if you think about it, is
exactly the kind of thing Microsoft was trying to prevent when it
launched its war against Netscape. It didn't want Netscape around,
because Netscape was becoming a platform. So wouldn't it be rich if,
in the end, Microsoft succeeds in killing Netscape and winning the
browser war but still, somehow, doesn't eliminate the platform threat?
If Netscape dies but the dragon that it spawned burns Redmond?
"btn" I don't know why so many people in the open source world have an
inferiority complex and are always comparing themselves to Microsoft,
or planning Microsoft's downfall, or are simply jealous. When I
release open source software, I'm just pleased if a hundred or a
thousand people are using it. And if Microsoft ever uses my code, hey
that would be delightful!

10/29/2003 12:10 AMWe stood there on the concrete steps of the U-Haul self-storage in
South San Francisco, johnny and I, watching the cars accelerate onto
101 South and waiting for a locksmith to come and drill the padlock
that stood between us and several boxes of Acts so we could get back
in our borrowed Isuzu Trooper and haul ass down that same 101 to the
O'Reilly Emerging Technology Conference. To pass the time, and apropos
of nothing much, johnny told me the story of how his oldest daughter
went extravagantly, cinematically insane one day.

has been an effective technique?
It hasn't worked with me. People are touched by this story because it
gives a human face to a whole host of lies and deceptions that only
now are becoming apparent to the American public. Americans don't like
this attitude. Americans don't like to see their women taken out and
