Not-for-profit versus for-profit economy

Not-for-profit versus for-profit economy 01/07/2004 04:28 PM

Today's Boston Globe carries two contrasting front-page stories.  "As economy gains, outsourcing surges" talks about how American workers at for-profit companies must compete with 84 million Filipinos, many of whom are well-educated, speak good English, and are delighted to work for $300/month.  Things are looking more cheerful for U.S. workers in the not-for-profit sector.  A front-page story on Boston University's search for a new president revealed that the school decided to pay Dan Goldin $1.8 million in exchange for... not working at all.  Considering that Mr. Goldin had yet to start his job, that's a pretty good hourly rate.  You could hire a staff of 45 Filipino engineers for ten years with that $1.8 mil!

[Update:  the Globe runs a three-article series on "the white collar job migration".  Article 2 is "US workers see hard times" and includes a quote from a venture capitalist: "Right when you think about Employee 11, you should think about India.  My view is you should not start a company from scratch in the United States ever again.''  Article 3 is "US business students find opportunity is global" and talks about how MBAs are adapting.  A more interesting article appears in the same issue, November 4, "As work shifts, internship in India the new rite of passage" and starts with "An increasing number of US students are going to India to intern at top information technology services firms or to participate in tours that allow them to network with the country's corporate elite."  The American interns, most of whom are MBAs or MBA students, get paid about $350/month (compared to their old internships of $7000/month in the U.S.).]

The other shoe drops. The L.A. Times releases details from Major General Antonio M. Taguba's findings into prisoner abuse in Iraq, including evidence that convinced him that a U.S. soldier had sex with an Iraqi female.

(Can we all agree that she didn't ask for it...?)

Spolsky Drops the Big One

Spolsky Drops the Big One 06/17/2004 03:48 AM
Joel Spolsky posted an astounding essay a few days ago that I somehow missed. I don’t agree with every paragraph, but every paragraph is worth reading. If I may pick one minor point out for a bit of special highlighting: We’ve had good full-text search technology since the Seventies, and in the last ten years more or less everybody has become a regular user of full-text search. Why isn’t there good built-in full-text desktop search available right now today on both OS X and Windows, out of the box? (Most of the article isn’t about search, most of it’s about why the Windows API is dying on the vine; don’t miss it.)

Palm drops the Mac

Palm drops the Mac 02/12/2004 06:20 PM
According to this article at Brighthand, Palm have announced that Palm OS 6 (codenamed Cobalt) will not support the Mac platform —

...PalmSource isn't developing a Mac version of the Palm Desktop. As the way the PIM apps work has changed significantly, this means Mac users won't be able to HotSync without third-party software.

This is a blow for Mac-owning Palm PDA users, although it's stoked those old fires suggesting that Apple may be ready to announce a PDA of it's own. John Manzione writes on MacNetv2 —

Apple will deflect this Palm bullet because they will soon introduce a new product that will do for the handheld market what the iPod has done for MP3 players.

A Jonathan Ive-designed PDA? Now I'd love to see that.
