Software That Lasts For Years And Years

Software That Lasts For Years And Years 07/14/2004 06:51 PM
We were just talking about the rise of quick and dirty programs as a way for individuals (not necessarily programmers) to solve specific needs. However, as was mentioned at the time, that would be a different "tier" of software programming, and there would still be a need for programmers to do higher level "big" projects. In the past, we've also discussed the problem of data extinction, where old computer systems and formats die out, leaving content and applications virtually useless on ancient media. This is a big problem for many applications, and Dan Bricklin is now suggesting that people need to start designing "Societal Infrastructure Software" that can last for centuries, not just a few years. The idea is that this type of software shouldn't have to worry about new computers or new formats or new anything... but will be able to just keep on working. In order to build this, though, Bricklin believes it will require embracing open source programming, though not necessarily the way people view open source programming today. It's a fascinating concept, but getting people to think long-term is so difficult these days, that you wonder if such ideas will actually catch on.

On your marks... get set... LINK-FU!

On your marks... get set... LINK-FU! 11/06/2003 10:04 AM
Link-Fu starts now! Here's a reminder, in case you missed Tuesday's post:

Link-Fu is an online competition where during a specific, pre-established period of time -- in this case, Thursday, November 6 from 9AM-12PM, Eastern Time -- you send us one url that links to some very weird something somewhere. Something so bizarre and wild and intriguing and fascinating, that no-one else (or as few nobodies as possible) has seen.

Judges: Warren Ellis, Invi sible Cowgirl, Mark, Pesco, and yours truly. We declare a winner based on whatever we happen to like best. Not the grossest, not neccesarily Farkish or Rotten. Just the flat-out most bizarre -- though grotesquery is not neccesarily out of the question. In fact, here was last week's barfbag winner (WARNING: extremely distgusting, NSFW, Cowgirl found it). The winner wins the title of High Master of Link-Fu, until we hold the next battle.

Starting now, through 12PM EST (9AM Pacific), e-mail the funkiest, most potently bizarro url-age you can find to linkfubattle@yahoo.com. We will announce the winner Friday morning. May the best link win.

Just to refresh your memory, they look like this: ? Sure, I know what you're thinking. "Why does it matter. Isn't readily obvious that someone...
