10/29/2003 02:21 AMA story on Macrumors.com notes that Apple did indeed consider moving
to Intel processors, but determined the change in system architecture
might be too slow and would "deeply affect its current customer base."
The result of this determination was the PowerPC 970, which was a 12
to 18 month collaborative effort between IBM and Apple and provided a
far better solution than moving to Intel's architecture. The article
notes that "IBM has committed to provide several generations...

Inheritance Considered Harmful (PDF)
Inheritance Considered Harmful (PDF)
01/14/2003 11:24 AMIt could also be argued that
inheritance falls into the class of programming language features
which are accepted and
instigated without thorough analysis, only to be subsequently rejected
when experience has
shown them to be unhelpful. It would appear that encapsulation is more
relevant and
applicable than inheritance, and its benefits to the maintenance
process are more obvious. In
[12], it is suggested that in future systems, architectures based on
aggregation will be more
appropriate than those based on inheritance. This is particularly true
of systems incorporating
multiple inheritance whose structures have tended to be elaborately
concocted... Lastly, contrary to what was
originally thought, it may be that most OO systems are simply not
amenable to the use of
inheritance, and their functionality does not lend itself well to use
of inheritance. -- Rachel Harrison and Steve Counsell
"tri" Not an easy article to read, but basicly it's saying complex
inheritance trees (more than 3 levels in depth?) are difficult to
maintain, and many designs use inheritance inappropriately. That is
why the big thing in C# and Java today is generics,
and why I was such a fan of templates in C++, even if the syntax was
terrible. PHP has less need for generics because most of its operators
and functions are polymorphic (thx to dynamic typing).

Starbucks:
I am also old enough to remember the swill that Americans drank and
were pleased to call "coffee" before Howard Schultz swept down out of
his damp PNW redoubt and clusterbombed us with franchises. It tasted
like soggy cardboard, it was served in chipped diner porcelain that
itself generally tasted of soap, and most importantly, with a very few
exceptions, it was all you could get anywhere.

SUVs considered harmful to your head
SUVs considered harmful to your head
03/11/2003 09:43 AMA NYT article titled
"Automak
ers Agree to Work for S.U.V. Safety" addresses the dangers
associated with a height differential between SUVs and cars in
collisions.
"A lot of times, people die from their head hitting the hood of the
striking car, so if you can add some sort of head protection, like a
curtain, you can mitigate injuries and fatalities," said Chris Tinto,
one of Toyota's top safety experts.
SUV makers ought to consider pushing for the application of helmet
laws to
drivers mistakenly choosing reasonably-sized vehicles. Perhaps these
wimpy
drivers should further consider helmets, knee-pads, and pedestrian
roll-bars
when outside their ill-considered puny vehicles to prevent against
head-butts by "bullies."
"High-Level" Considered Meaningless
"High-Level" Considered Meaningless
04/09/2004 04:10 PMOnce upon a time, the adjective "high-level", applied to a programming
language, denoted an increased degree of expressive power, implying
not only economy of expression -- terseness -- but an ability to
encode new abstractions encapsulating notions not actually envisioned
by the language designers themselves. In the decades since the lambda
calculus was first elucidated, and embodied to increasing degrees in
the LISPs and their successors, language designers have learned to
enable many different kinds of abstraction, and have increasingly
concentrated on providing the scaffolding needed to manage the
complexity that comes with such power.

New Domains Considered Harmful, Says Tim
Berners-Lee
New Domains Considered Harmful, Says Tim
Berners-Lee
05/19/2004 01:14 PMAs lots of folks are pushing to get ICANN to expand the number of top
level domains (so people an get more than just .com, .net, etc.), Tim
Berners-Lee is
argung against the idea, saying that
current proposals are really just a racket to get more money out of
companies. The original idea was that the domain name space (really
just the .com space) was getting too crowded and good names were
increasingly difficult to come by. However, instead of really
expanding the market, adding .biz and .info mostly just made companies
feel the need to buy up the same domains they already owned the .com
for. If anything, he considers it domain "inflation" - devaluing
existing domains. He is particularly against the idea of a .mobi
domain name specifically for wireless content, agreeing with us that
there's
really no need for it and it will make things more confusing.
Increasingly, mobile phones and devices are able to access the entire
internet without any problems. There's no reason they need a specific
separate TLD all their own. He's also against the
idea of
the .xxx domain, pointing out (as always) that figuring out
exactly what is porn is quite subjective. That's true, but as long as
no one is
forced into the .xxx domain, it might make sense for
certain sites that want the domain. He's not entirely against new
TLDs, but wants them to have a specific purpose - such as mapping to
telephone numbers, which some groups have proposed as well.

Heroin and teenage pregnancy not
considered harmful?
12/17/2004 06:36 PMImagine an average guy with an average job (tire salesman,
cubicle-dwelling Java programmer, whatever) with two teenage
kids. The father is upset because his son is using heroin.
Now that the movie
Ray is out the son can reply "if I stayed
off the smack I might be able to get a job like yours dad but I'd
rather be like Ray Charles." The 17-year-old daughter is
pregnant with her second child, which also earns her some verbal abuse
from dad. In the 1970s she would have to suffer this abuse but
today when Buddhism is recognized as the provably optimal religion for
human felicity she can say "sorry that you're upset dad; I was 'in the
moment' when this baby was conceived."
