06/14/2004 01:13 PMAnders Hejlberg is a distinguished engineer here. At least that's his
official title. But that doesn't do justice to the role he's played in
the industry (first at Borland, where he ran the team that developed
Turbo Pascal and later Delphi, or here at Microsoft, where he and his
team developed C#).

05/04/2004 10:23 PMJohn Allsopp: Message To The Messengers - Props to the old school:
Of late, with the latest version of Style Master released,
bedded down, and well received, I've been a little nostalgic about the
old days of CSS. So I thought I might try to ride that wave a little,
cast my mind back over my experience of CSS, and talk a little about
some people you really should be grateful to if you work with CSS and
web standards. Particularly some you might not have heard
of.
There follows a tribute to some of the unsung heroes of the early
history of CSS. And
if that's piqued your interest, Lauren Wood's recent post about DOM
Level 3 becoming a W3C Recommendation has some insights in to the
early days of the DOM
Working Group, which she chaired up until November 2001.

05/27/2004 03:13 PMPHP programming
language: Some interesting history on PHP. It used to be a Perl
wrapper?
PHP was originally designed as a wrapper around Perl by Rasmus
Lerdorf in 1994 to display his resume information and collect some
data, such as how many hits it was generating. Others first used
"Personal Home Page Tools" in 1995, which Lerdorf had combined with
his own Form Interpreter to create PHP/FI.
Zeev Suraski and Andi Gutmans, two Israeli developers of the
Technion - Israel Institute of Technology rewrote the parser in 1997,
forming the basis of PHP 3. They also changed the name to its current
recursive form. After months in beta, the development team officially
released PHP/FI 2 in November 1997.

Chris
Null over at Mobile PC Mag does another great follow up to his Top 100 Gadgets of All Time, this
time detailing the history of the portable computer, from the IBM 5100
Portable Computer pictured here, up to the first modern laptops. It's
a tear-jerker for those of us who lived through this era, seeing old
friends like the Compaq luggable (mine had more wonky than usual
floppy drives) and catching a glimpse of a few I'd not known
about.
It also inspired me to keep on with my current tinkering project
goal (which let me tell you, is way beyond my limited
abilities): getting an Epson HX-20 laptop online via serial cable ->
IR -> cellphone. Of course, I've got to buy a working HX-20 first, and
every time I mention it on here, you bastards go out and outbid me on
all the eBay sales. Stop that.

Own a Piece of History
01/05/2005 07:05 PMIt’s finally time. I’m ready to part with my T
reo 600 now that I’m set up on the new T
reo 650. My first 600 had problems that caused it to frequently
reset itself. I didn’t realize this until I got the replacement
600, which is much more stable. So I’m selling the Treo 600 (for
Sprint’s network), a
case, and
a keyboard for $250. If you’re interested in owning the
device that started the infamous What’s on My Treo 600 page, email or IM me
(cybrarygal on AIM).
Interesting tangent: I thought
Kate’s 19–year old daughter Clare would want it for
Christmas, but she says no. Even though she’s all about
messaging (which is why I thought the keyboard and full IM capability
would be a no-brainer for her), she says it’s too big.
She’d rather have something she can easily fold over
clamshell-style and fit in her pocket. She truly
would rather text message using a phone dialpad than carry a
larger phone. Go figure.

Electronica History
04/04/2005 06:28 PM
By a weird coincidence, after reading
this
interview in New Scientist with three of the engineers who made
electronic music possible, I walked by a poster for a
documentary film about Bob Moog.
One of my earliest memories of electronic music in the 1970s was an
elementary school music teacher who was really into
Wendy Carlos' and
Isao Tomita's early
arrangements of classical works for synthesizer. Of course,
electronic music history goes back to the 1920s with the
theremin
developed as a classical instrument. It has its own
web portal filled with lots of
good stuff. And now for something slightly different,
Conlon
Nancarrow wrote piano compositions that could not be performed by
human hands, demanding the use of a player piano.

03/17/2005 02:53 AMScience.Ars rocks on for another week. This edition looks at some
medical problems in the developing world. For a long time, it was
commonly assumed that cancer rates were lower in poorer countries than
in the developed world. A new study shows that as life expectancy
increases in developing nations, so do cancer rates.
Where you live and what you eat have a large influence
on the types of cancer you are at risk from. Richer countries have
more breast, colon, rectum and prostate cancer, whereas poorer
countries have a greater incidence of cancers of the liver, stomach,
and esophagus.
There's also news on the history of bacon and a loss of meltwater.
Read on.
