Despite what certain agencys may want you to believe, Peer-to-Peer file sharing is booming big time. To my surprise, video has actually over taken music in the #1 content slot being downloaded. The BBC reports that file-swappers have moved their trust away from the traditional clients on to other set ups like Bittorrent….

Alive 04/23/2004 05:37 AM

Just in case you are wondering, I am still alive and kicking.  I have been busy with a project for a client and I have barely managed to get enough sleep in the last six days because I have to deliver by this Sunday something that will wow people into opening their pocket next week.

As usual, it's a lonewolf project because there is neither the time nor resources to pull together a team.  I am trying to slip in some fancy design features for flexibility but it's mostly wham-bam-stay-out-of-my-way-fool and I'll-fix-that-later going on.

Yeah, it's Silicon Valley at its best since crash projects like these are impossible to outsource.  Days of milking fat mega-corporations on multi-year projects are gone and lean mean shoot-from-the-hip or work-for-nickles days are here.

I decided to do the only sensible thing with Forth strings: dodge the whole damn question. I implemented a p" word instead which puts a parrot string on the stack when the word its compiled into is executed. WIth that, and a few other bits of jiggery-pokery, I was good to go. And I do mean good--this code: : loadcurses p" library/ncurses.pasm " loadpasm ;: initscr p" ncurses::initscr " findglobal 0 preg invoke resultP ;loadcursesinitscr will, in Parrot Forth (when executed from the main parrot directory at least), load up the ncurses interface library and call the initscr function in...

The Bush Administration has advocated, and Congress recently approved , the repeal of a 1994 ban on U.S. research and development on new, low-yield nuclear weapons, setting the stage for pursuit of a new generation of such weapons. "The Administration had sought to remove this restriction because of the chilling effect it has had on nuclear weapons research and development," wrote Linton F. Brooks, head of the National Nuclear Security Administration in a December 5 memo(PDF). A detailed Congressional Research Service (CRS) report on "Nuclear Weapon Initiatives: Low-Yield R&D, Advanced Concepts, Earth Penetrators, Test Readiness" was updated last week. (PDF)

Liberty Still Alive


Liberty Still Alive 06/28/2004 09:35 PM

  • NY Times: Supreme Court Affirms Detainees' Right to Use Courts. The Supreme Court ruled today that people being held by the United States as enemy combatants can challenge their detention in American courts — the court's most important statement in decades on the balance between personal liberties and national security.
  • There's still a scary deference to the executive branch in some of the language in these rulings. But there's also something to cheer: the president can't decide what the law is. The court punted on the Padilla case. He's an American citizen who was grabbed on U.S. soil and slammed indefinitely into a military brig. The court said his lawyer raised the case in the wrong court. Sheesh. But there's overall good news. As one justice wrote, the "War on Terror" does not give the president "a blank check" in defining the rights -- or lack of rights -- the Constitution grants.

    Wow. Apparently we got him. American forces captured a bearded Saddam Hussein as he hid in a dirt hole under a farmhouse near his hometown of Tikrit, ending one of the most intensive manhunts in history. The arrest, eight months after the fall of Baghdad, was carried out without a shot fired and was a huge victory for U.S. forces. I wonder how this will change things......

    The Fax Machine Stays Alive


    The Fax Machine Stays Alive 03/28/2005 03:37 AM
    It's been nearly a year and a half since we last checked in on the world of fax machines and found that, despite this whole digital internet paperless revolution thing, the fax machine refused to die. It turns out, a year and a half later, not much has changed. The fax machine is still a necessary piece of equipment for many businesses, and shows no signs of going away any time soon. In fact, some are saying that fax machine sales are actually going up these days. Of course, some of us still can't figure out what it's good for, other than documents where a signature is needed -- though, it's also being used in places where people don't want to give out their email addresses, but prefer the less personable fax machine as a way to ward off constant contact.

    Today is a great day to be alive


    Today is a great day to be alive 05/23/2004 04:56 PM

    I think this is like my 4th Scoble post today.  Love that 1,400 feed filtering for me you're doing Robert.  Now that Gates and Ballmer are paying attention to you - all smart bloggers will suck up to you - as I do.

    But that doesn't mean that I care about the Microsoft oriented content that Channel9 produces.  Once Microsoft starts paying people to run around the open world - to produce the same sort of video content that I'd care about - I'll watch.  And participate too.

    I'd love to get reports from Banbridge Island from Ted and Julie or from the swamps/lagoons of Redwood Shores from DonJoi's backyard in Chiba (near the airport) would be a great background (as the planes roar over our heads) and wherever Doc or Howard happen to be (in whatever airport they're stuck in) would also be fun.  Our world encompasses standing on the steps of the Supreme Court,  to sitting in a cafe in Paris with Alf Eaton - shipping RVW 1.0.  Then we'd cut to Chris Schmidt hitting the carriage return in his dorm room in Champaign-Urbana with another FOAF module - this time for WordPress.Our world takes us to Ross Rader throwing a launch party for Blogware in Toronto to schmucks like me (hanging out at the swiming pool in our backyards in Walnut Creek, CA - spewing open propaganda from our fingertips - just trying to make a difference and make a buck to feed our familes and send our kids to college.

    I'm so dam proud of Michael Moore right now - I just wanna scream.

    But Microsoft content is like - like - like - like tar paper.  It gets on your hands and you can't get rid of it.  It's sticky, and there's just something chemically about it.

    :-)

    Udell checks out Channel9.

    Jon Udell, on his InfoWorld blog, saw Ward Cunningham, inventor of the Wiki, show up on Channel9. It's nice to see the reactions of people to Channel9. Yesterday, Lenn and Jeff went riding around Microsoft with Eric Rudder. I can't wait to see what they learned.

    More from Ward is coming.

    Marc Canter: OK I admit it. I haven't spent hours in front of my machine watching Channel9. I hope Scoble doesn't hate me.

    I don't hate you Marc, but most of my video clips are a couple of minutes long. And, you can subscribe to an RSS feed of just the videos, so you can pick out the ones that sound interesting and listen to those.

    Servers Alive v4.1.1609


    Servers Alive v4.1.1609 05/19/2004 04:12 PM
    Servers Alive is a network monitor program. Among the many checks it can do: it can monitor any Winsock service, ping a host, check if an NT service/process is running, check the available disk space on a server, retrieve an URL, check your database engine, and more. When it detects a down condition it can warn you in various ways, including sending you an email (SMTP) saying what is down, or paging you with a numeric or alphanumeric warning. It's also the first monitoring program to support WAP pages viewable with wireless devices. Servers Alive also supports host dependency and can be easily interrogated using a telnet client and/or a web browser. [Shareware $180.00 10 MB]

    Browser innovation is alive and well 09/14/2004 11:04 AM

    Here's a feature that caught me by surprise (maybe I haven't been keeping my ear close enough to the ground): the new Firefox 1.0 preview release supports Live Bookmarks, a novel twist on RSS aggregators where feeds look just like bookmark folders, displaying a list of bookmarks corresponding to the headlines from the feed. Best of all, the feature support R SS autodiscovery. Sites with auto-discoverable feeds display an attractive RSS icon on the right hand side of the status bar, allowing for one click subscriptions.

    There are certainly some issues to be ironed out. Subscribing to a feed without auto-discovery isn't very easy, as the "New Live Bookmark" button is missing from the bookmark manager's toolbar (look in the File menu there instead). I also haven't found the interface for setting subscription options such as polling intervals, so I'll have to trust that Firefox is doing more or less the right thing. Those points aside, it's great to see Firefox driving forward browser innovation yet again.

    Update: Here's a killer app for this feature: if you use blogmarks/b-links/del.icio.us instead of bookmarks, subscribing to the accompanying RSS feed as a live bookmark will give you access to your most recently added items within the browser UI.

    Hyote captured alive!

    hyotecaptured
    The Hyote, a magical mystery animal that's been running around central Maryland, has apparently been captured. (Previous post here.) Amazingly though, this Hyote--a male red fox with sarcoptic mange, according to veterinarians--is most likely the offspring of the larger animal caught on video last month. Once the baby Hyote is well again, animal control will release it back into the wild. Link (Thanks, Soupie!)
