After an unusually busy Saturday morning, putting out a fire related to load balancing for a client and trying out an integration test for a milestone due Monday, I watched Samurai Fiction.  Boy, what a stupid boring movie.  It's only enjoyable spot was the aging ninja.

Twilight Samurai

Twilight Samurai 03/19/2005 02:50 AM

Twilight Samurai on DVD recommended.  It's a beautiful film to watch although I thought the storyline was a bit too simple.  It has only two fighting scenes with little bloodshed.  The first fighting scene, which takes place by a stream, was more enjoyable than the second which was just two samurais fumbling around inside a dark house.

Sony's Sudden Samurai

Sony's Sudden Samurai 03/14/2005 04:01 PM
Business Week’s opinion about what Sir Howard needs to do to fix the company… “It wasn’t as far-fetched as, say, a geeky high school student morphing overnight into your web-spinning, friendly, neighborhood Spider-Man. But the Mar. 7 announcement that Sir Howard Stringer would take over management control of Sony (SNE), a $68 billion consumer-electronics and entertainment colossus, came pretty close to defying belief in Japan. Sure, Sony is a much-diminished force. But was it so…

Pickup Games, Vol. 2 - Knizia's Samurai 06/15/2004 07:44 PM

MATT GALLANT -- Today's pickup game just barely qualifies, as games can take more than a few minutes, but I included it because it's turn-based and easy to get back into in case you do have to stop mid-game. It's Reiner Knizia's Samurai, a computerized version of the popular board game, and it even has an OS X version.

The Last Samurai and the Japanese code
of honor

The Last Samurai and the Japanese code
of honor 04/09/2004 03:56 PM

I just finished watching The Last Samurai. I'm not going to comment on the acting or the historical accuracy, but rather on this notion of a code of honor. Several people told me to watch it because they were impressed with the code of honor in the film. I think there is something comforting about codes of honor and people get goose bumps when they see movies where heros die for honor. Some people identify with the heros as they reflect on the unfairness and loneliness in their own lives. A friend of mine manages the rights to Musashi by Eiji Yoshikawa, which is one of Japan's most famous heros. He used to get calls almost every year from CEOs of companies wanting to make the film because they realized that THEY were Musashi.

The most honorable person I've ever known is my mom. She didn't talk about or whine about honor. She was just honorable. In my experience, the more people talk about honor, the less they know about it and are either using it as a way to try to convince you to trust them or trying to convince themselves or something. Some of the stupidest mistakes I've made in friendship and business have been when I have assumed that people spouting off about codes of honor would actually adhere to them. "Don't you trust me?" "Just trust me." Bah.

So I'm quite skeptical about Japanese honor. Sure, I bet there were a lot of honorable people though the history of the Samurai, but I see honor every day and they don't make movies about it. So stop making movies about Japanese honor or we might start believing it.

I'm not bashing the notion of codes of honor in organizations since I think it's often necessary to try to aspire to and enforce higher level conduct in these organizations, but having a code doesn't mean everyone will adhere to it and such codes probably cause these organizations to be more trusted than they should.

Get a slice of Google for $85 a share

Get a slice of Google for $85 a share 08/19/2004 08:19 AM
Having completed their “Dutch style” share auction, Google have decided on a price of $85 per share. Revised down from the expected $135, the change will mean that Google only raise $1.67 Billion, setting the company value at about $24 Billion. Yahoo, in comparison, is valued at about $39 Billion.

Google will be offering 19.6 million shares, and will be open for business on Thursday. The shares will be traded under "GOOG".

Google's path to "IPO" has been marred with problems, each taking the glean off what was initially the most awaited IPO in technology history. Issues like breaching the "silence period" before selling (‘that’ playboy interview), and illegally giving shares to its employees, have culminated to bring down the perceived value of the Google offering. Google’s IPO followed a very non-standard route, which has annoyed many on Wall Street; reputable journal ‘The Economist’ wrote last week that if Google does succeed in its IPO, it could set a trend for other companies going public- to avoid traditional investment bankers and go it alone – the implication being that it could cost some businesses a lot of money that they’d make from managing IPO’s.

That said, Google will still gain an enormous amount of revenue from the share sale. They have yet to decide (or announce) exactly where all these funds will be going.

SVGSlice is a simple tool which generates chopped up images from Inkscape SVG drawings. To figure out where to cut, SVGSlice can use Inkscape's built in guides (for simpler, grid-like cuts), or it can use a specially named "slices" layer that contains rectangles that mark areas to slice. Demo files showing both approaches are included.

Philips Brilliance 64-Slice CT Scanner

Philips Brilliance 64-Slice CT Scanner 04/05/2005 09:19 AM

Since all it takes for an American with insurance to get a CT scan is a slight fever or a missing Q-tip, it's probably important they have the fastest, most accurate technology available. Philips' new Brilliance 64-Slice CT Scanner, recently installed at the University of Chicago Hospitals, has four times the resolution of a typical CT scan, providing higher quality imaging of the human body. Even better, it's fast—it can scan your heart or brain in about five seconds and do a full-body sweep in about 30. That's fast enough that it can be timed to take snapshots of the human heart between pumps, allowing for some of the first widely-available high-resolution scans of that organ without motion blurring.
