The NYT is reporting that AOL is providing software to customers to block pop-ups. The sheer number of ironies in this article is simply delicious, and renders further comment unnecessary: 1) "AOL pioneered the often annoying but effective pop-up format" 2) "10 percent of its users had chosen not to receive pop-ups from AOL's own service, an option that has been harder to find than the new blocking software." Hard to find? Almost impossible. 3) "the number of sites that will accept pop-ups is increasing, including ever more sites owned by AOL Time Warner like Mapquest and CNN.com."

Yesterday we cheered MySQL. Here's the flip side. Ken Jacobs, Oracle's VP of product strategy is interviewed by eWeek:

Q: What kind of a threat does Oracle see open-source databases being, say, five years down the road?

MySQL production releases have typically been two years apart, and the time from alpha [first release] to production is about 1.5 years. They released Version 5.0 in alpha status in December 2003, so a reasonable expectation for production release of Version 5.0 is mid-2005.

It should be noted that MySQL Version 5.0 introduced stored procedures but not triggers or views, both of which are essential for significant enterprise applications. It appears unlikely that MySQL could introduce these critical features much before mid-2007. A whole wide range of additional capabilities including but not limited to XML and analytic—i.e. business-intelligence—features do not appear to be on the MySQL radar.

Furthermore, the low level of resources available to MySQL to fund development and the very small size of their development team raise questions about the viability of the MySQL business model and technology development path going forward.

It is unlikely that MySQL can rapidly accelerate development of their core product while acquiring and integrating disparate database technologies like the SAP DB (now called MaxDB) or MySQL Cluster. Indeed, this sort of 'engineering by acquisition' is a distraction and fragments their development efforts.

Apparently some PostgreSQL developers concur.

Creative, cheap, participatory, the most innovative city in the world......Curitiba !! There may be no single, organic and living font of solutions to many of the world's most pressing problems than Curitiba (previous link from Wikipedia, and a bit more of a wonkish summary he re), a Brazilian city of 1.5 million that urban planners from around the globe make pilgrimages to, to learn.

On a budget a tiny fraction of those which American cities have at their disposal, how did Curitiba become the world's leading model for urban sustainability and quality of life ? - with possibly the world's most efficient and effective public transit system, a network of parks and greenery far beyond Olmsted's visionary parks, 70% trash recycling, innovative social welfare systems, trees everywhere, and "Lighthouses of Knowledge" with small libraries and free internet access as well, a low cost open university system.....and flowers! Curitiba's pedestrian-only (no cars) city center is filled with gardens.

A Dremel in the hand... 04/12/2004 06:11 AM

When I was a bartender, I learned to believe in the power of the full moon. I never bought into the whole idea of celestial bodies determining behaviour such as horoscopes, but I overcame my scepticism after too many nights of full moon freaks. It isn't a full moon and I don't know if there is a celestial convergence, but there are an awful lot of people lately who either need a good trepanning by a qualified mental dentist in possession of a good quality Dremel or a fleet enema.

Jarkko was on holiday last week and we did a few fun things that I have been scanning the photos from over the last day or three. So, there are a number of photos coming up soon. Tomorrow, we go shopping for a decent photo scanner since negative/photo scanners are a lot cheaper than the last time I looked five years ago.

And, if you live in Finland and understand English, Meng Weng Wong was nice enough to set me up with a mailing list since I have near epileptic fits over excessive use of animated smileys on the wailing wall and mailing lists are a lot easier to manage, thread and organize than a flat web page. It's unmoderated and should be a fun list for the local expats to share news articles, URLs, local events and the usual mailing list kind of stuff. Meng is the guy behind SPF so spam shouldn't be a problem, either. If interested, the subscription page and the subscription address, subscribe-iesaf@v2.listbox.com, should be self-explanatory.

An Invisible Hand? - An Unexplained Effect During Solar Eclipses Casts Doubt on General Relativity
http://www.economist.com/science/displayStory.cfm?story_id=3104321

“ASSUME nothing” is a good motto in science. Even the humble pendulum may spring a surprise on you. In 1954 Maurice Allais, a French economist who would go on to win, in 1988, the Nobel prize in his subject, decided to observe and record the movements of a pendulum over a period of 30 days. Coincidentally, one of his observations took place during a solar eclipse. When the moon passed in front of the sun, the pendulum unexpectedly started moving a bit faster than it should have done. Since that first observation, the “Allais effect”, as it is now called, has confounded physicists. If the effect is real, it could indicate a hitherto unperceived flaw in General Relativity—the current explanation of how gravity works. That would be a bombshell—and an ironic one, since it was observations taken during a solar eclipse (of the way that light is bent when it passes close to the sun) which established General Relativity in the first place. So attempts to duplicate Dr Allais's observation are important. However, they have had mixed success, leading sceptics to question whether there was anything to be explained. Now Chris Duif, a researcher at the Delft University of Technology, in the Netherlands, has reviewed the evidence. According to a paper he has just posted on arXiv.org, an online publication archive, the effect is real, unexplained, and could be linked to another anomaly involving a pair of American spacecraft.

What if someone threw a browser war and nobody showed up? Om Malik's "Microsoft's Worst Nightmare" in Business 2.0 is a nicely written chronicle of the current odd chapter in the now-outmoded "browser wars." This feels more like a browser hand-over, with Internet Explorer offering no resistance as home and business users download the Mozilla-based Firefox browser and (to borrow the Firefox slogan) "take back the Web."
