New York's golden age
01/02/2005 06:28 PMThe NY Times recently asked a few New Yorkers which era they would nominate as New York's golden
age. Like Greg, I thought Bill T. Jones' answer was the
most penetrating:
Right after 9/11.
New York had a true reappraisal
of itself at a tragic and introspective moment. New York had the
attention of the whole world; it was a frightening moment. But the
world was ready to follow, to assist.
It lasted a few months. We
were vulnerable and open to the rest of the world, and we were ready
for a change. There was a chance to ask questions, and it was a time
when we were forced to do so.
But it didn't happen. There wasn't
a true conversation about what America means to the rest of the world
or about why New York was chosen. It was an opportunity. And then the
politicians took it.
That last sentence is a doozy, isn't it? It saddens me to think
that in times when we need to have open and honest communication to
heal wounds and investigate opportunities, we instead let ourselves
get caught up with the marketing of powerful men.

06/05/2005 11:34 PMI just finished reading Kottke's new piece, A whole new internet?, and
it reminded me of a moment in 2002, sitting in a basement at a great
conference organized by Kevin Werbach in the depth of the tech
recession. While around us were depression, unemployment and
nay-saying about the internet, in that room was amazing creativity and
energy -- people like Mike Masnick, Ben and Mena Trott, Dan Gillmor,
Marc Canter, Dave Sifry and many others all excited about the ideas
they had and the things they were working on, and all eager to share
them. Now, except for the irrepressible Mr. Cantor, the projects have
become businesses, and the proprietors much quieter. People are still
working on cool stuff, but they are talking and sharing less, except
for marketing mode. I know my writing has suffered, both because of
constraints on what I feel comfortable writing about here, and just
because of the lack of time to write. Business is booming, but it is
less fun. Is Kottke right, and will we look back at 2002-2004 as the
golden years of the internet, pre-Web 2.0?...

The golden benefits of C'ing your PHP
The golden benefits of C'ing your PHP
03/11/2003 01:22 AMI've seen some posts in response to my
experiments
C'ing my PHP code. Some of them have
questioned the
benefits.
Well my experiments are that of a beginner (hint: remember the kiddie
emoticons), so you have to take what i say with a grain of salt.
My initial conversion was the most commonly called function in the
ADOdb api, MoveNext(). This function is just a wrapper to a database
call, so there's not much to tune and a small speedup is only to be
expected.
Finding things to tune is like looking for gold. We need to understand
a bit about the geology of our code before we can hit paydirt. We are
looking for functions which are frequently called, contain a
substantial amount of PHP code, but not too complicated that it
becomes a pain to port to C, preferably involves a lot of looping, and
is unlikely to ever change (it's much less fun to maintain this than
maintaining a secret love affair).
Well i just hit a rich seam. There is a function called
ADORecordset::GetArray(), which creates a 2D array from a recordset.
Now it calls the C function adodb_getall(). I did some global
optimizations that are impossible to do in a PHP script, and the speed
improvement is about 75%. This function is used to emulate record
counting, so it's used in every query against oracle, mssql or any
other commercial database.
As i learn more, things could get even faster.

Some of you might not care
about a special gold-color edition Nintendo Gamecube, but I'm the guy
who traded a perfectly good black Gamecube in to get the special
Platinum Edition two Christmas past. Why? It was shiny, hello.
I agree with Planet Gamecube when they say Nintendo should release
this gold version in the US as a special Zelda edition 'cube.
Also, there's a joke in there about cubes of gold bullion
somewhere, but I'll be damned if I can find it. Game-flavored soup?

Golden Rule before Cluetrain
Golden Rule before Cluetrain
07/07/2004 07:52 AM
Yesterday, an absolutely gorgeous NY summer day, I took my walk
with my iPod and Doc Searls.
There were two parts to the conversatio
n, the first, a narrative biography about Doc, which was very
useful, I didn't know how he came to be in Silicon Valley for example.
The second half was fairly predictable Doc hype, open source and
Microsoft ad infinitum, as if that was all there was in the software
world, with a new rant about how SCO was screwing with Doc's life,
something I could relate to, because my own life is being screwed
with.
A short comment stuck with me. Doc said of fellow Cluetrainer,
Chris Locke and his alter-id, Rageboy: "The most out-there and
purposely offensive blog. He's a genius, it's brilliant stuff. It's
hostile." Then he laughs.
I've heard him say this before, and I've also heard David
Weinberger say the same thing. They find Locke's cruelty amusing. I
agree that Locke's site is purposely offensive, I might go a little
further, but I wonder if Searls and Weinberger would like it so much
if they were the targets?
Locke directs his hostility at people. I watched as he
humiliated an old girlfriend. How does he get away with this? I
wondered. People still seem to be his friend. I didn't say anything
for fear that he'd go after me. Then he did. How did I offend him? I
honestly don't know.
The Golden Rule comes before The Cluetrain Manifesto. If you
aren't trying to treat people as you would like to be treated,
you can't possibly do good, imho. You guys have taken a big detour, I
think you've lost your way. When I first read the Cluetrain I was
cheering, it was exciting. Now it's degraded and sick. Time for an
intervention. Wake up guys, people matter. I still believe you're
better than this. Much.

The Golden Age of Silver Age comics
12/15/2003 04:26 PMI discovered Jack Kirby around 1972 (with
KAMANDI) and quickly
devoured his comics from the previous decade, especially
Fantastic
Four. Here's a nice NYT article about 1960s comic books that sums
up why they're so great.
Just as Mr. Infantino's Flash had captured the gung-ho
futurism of the late 50's, illustrators like Kirby and Mr. Ditko
brought an appropriately darker, grittier and sometimes spaced-out
look to Marvel's pages in the mid-60's. The Fantastic Four spent a lot
of time on the Lower East Side, where Kirby had grown up. Mr. Ditko's
hallucinatory illustrations for the mystic Dr. Strange had a direct
impact on the psychedelic art that bloomed a few years later. In
"Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test," Tom Wolfe reported that the LSD guru
Ken Kesey spent hours studying Dr. Strange comics with acid-inspired
probity. Rock-concert posters also lifted the character's image.

Prisonaires: golden age pop music from
behind bars
01/05/2004 04:13 PMIn Jonathan Lethem's
Fortress of Solitude, which I finished on a plane yesterday,
there's an amazing aside about a band called The Prisonaires, a group
of 1950s black men who'd been sent to jail on faked-up charges and who
formed a best-selling pop group behind bars, leaving on special
work-release programs to perform and record. It turns out that The
Prisonaires aren't fictional -- what's more, you can actually buy a
reissue CD of their greatest hits.
