12/19/2004 03:41 PMTwo new articles on big thinkers have turned up. First is an
Investor's
Business Daily article on Alan Turing's life and imagination. It
covers some of the historical aspects of his life as well as touching
on
cryptography, artificial intelligence, robotics, and brain-mind
metaphysics. The summary of Turing's life also conveniently leaves out
the more controversial bits and the cause of his death. For a more
complete
look at Turing's life, see the Wikipedia article. A
more recent thinker on similar problems, Ray Kurzweil, is intereviewed
by DevSource. Kruzweil discusses reverse-engineering the brain,
embedded intelligence, and even has a comment or two about
synthesizers.

Adventures in redesigns
Adventures in redesigns
03/13/2003 10:22 AMSo after keeping the same design around for a little over 2 years,
I decided it was time for a change. My goals with this design was to
accommodate more stuff, but still aim for simple and clean (and also,
I was looking for a reason to use Travis Beckham's insanely cool
patterns -- background images have been dorky for so long they're
cool again).
A couple months ago, I noticed I was writing less than usual,
hiking less often, and not taking all that many photos. To force
myself to spend more time on those things I decided the next design
would reduce the importance of daily blogging, and give other features
more prominence. The features area to the right is the same size as
the blog area for that reason, and while at the moment there is
nothing new there, I'm aiming to either write an article, post a photo
essay, interview someone, or do some other feature-sized thing once a
week from here on out. I also wanted to get myself back into taking
daily photos. I did it through most of the year 2000, and I learned a
lot by forcing myself to just do it everyday.
The redesign is only on the front page and the weblog archives for
now (which are now Movable Type
powered, to boot), but eventually everything else will get converted
over, and I might add more stuff to the right side, but I'll try not
to make it too portal-like. The whole design is liquid, and I used
some CSS tricks to have the photos on the right fill their areas --
the smaller or wider your browser, the less or more you see of the
images. The daily photo image is the actual full size photo, just
positioned centered as a background (yes, a pointless waste of
bandwidth, but easier than thumbnaling and clicking on it to see the
full sized version is faster).
While this site isn't quite validating as xhtml strict (the stock
Flash code is causing the errors), and I did have to use a table to
get a consistent layout of the two sides (floated columns refused to
work), I've found a really odd bug. If you're viewing this site in a
newer version of Mozilla or mac/IE, you should see a nifty Flash map
of the US/World (coded brilliantly by Bryan) showing the places I've been
recently, where I am currently, and where I'm heading soon. If you're
using Opera, Safari, or win/IE, you won't see anything at all. The map
works by itself on a page, and inside a table in all browsers, but for
some reason, half the browsers I point at this page don't like it and
ignore it. I suppose I'll figure out the problem eventually. If anyone
is confused, here is what is supposed to look like (screensh
ot 1, screensh
ot 2)
One thing's certain: after the past couple days of work on this, I
could really use some Extreme,

Adventures in being a bandwidthaholic
Adventures in being a bandwidthaholic
04/15/2004 02:34 AMI've been sharing a remotely hosted server at Rackshack.net (which
became EV1) with friends for
over a year now and it's run amazingly well. The account started with
700Gb of montly bandwidth and after the unfortunate SCO license flap,
we got upped to 1 terabyte of monthly bandwidth, with
seemingly no network speed cap. For the past year, the server's pushed
out a couple Gb of bandwidth a day, tops, from all the sites it hosts.
Even when I put a bunch of
music online last spring, it hardly made a dent.
This month I figured I'd see just how much a terabyte was. It
started when I offered to host the Beatallica songs. After a day
the bandwidth jumped to 10-15Gb and it was humming along nicely. Then
it hit Pitc
hfork's news page, and the bandwidth skyrocketed. The box was
pushing out 20Mbit/sec and after a a couple days I had to tell the
gang to de-link songs as my monthly bandwidth total reached 100Gb just
a few days into April.
I was pretty impressed that the box held up ok (after Chris limited the site to 1 download
per user) and was amazed at the traffic a site like Pitchfork could
generate from a tiny news blurb. I thought to myself "wow, aside from
slashdot I couldn't imagine a blog ever generating this kind of
traffic and demand for files."
Then Cory linked my 66Mb
file of a Jon Stewart interview over at BoingBoing, and it completely blew
away the previous bandwidth numbers. In about 12 hours of the link
being directed at the box, the network throughput jumped to almost
60Mbit/sec, and it pushed out 131Gb of data in half a day. The box
served up all the other sites fine but as I watched my monthly
bandwidth allottment reach 40% of the total before the first half of
the month was even over, I took it offline and Andy put it up on his tracker, where it is being
downloaded like crazy, but off-loaded to everyone's personal
connection sharing the load.
Here's a cool graph of the network utilization on a weekly,
30-minute moving average (click to see the full image):
You can see the initial rise from a bunch of blogs linking to
Beatallica, then the peak is the pitchfork hit, which subsided after
song links were eliminated. Then a few days of relative calm and
Boingboing is the huge peak, which only lasted half a day. I grabbed
this right after I started redirecting folks to the torrent.
I've learned a few things from these large bandwidth
experiments:
- Ridiculous amounts of bandwidth is out there for a cheap price
(the server is only $100/month, shared among people using it). If
you're paying $30 a month and getting hit with bandwidth overage bills
that go into the hundreds of dollars, find a friend that knows some
linux server administration, get one of these leased boxes, and never
worry about bandwidth again.
- A thousand gigabytes is a ton of bandwidth and it's nice to have
around when you want to share large files with friends or the general
public. I host my ten years
site there and don't really care about the size of photos or the
number of people pulling down the RSS feeds with large images
embedded.
- That said, when you get hit with a huge amount
of traffic, bandwidth is still going to be a problem. Most colocation
hosts cap your line at 10Mbit/sec and I was surprised to see the box
creeping up near 60Mbit/sec yesterday. It's still a problem to host
one giant file for a ton of people, even with an absurd amount of
bandwidth available to you. Bittorrent is the savior here, Andy tells
me even though he seeds all the files on his server (which means the original
file's still on his server being downloaded if no one else is sharing
it), his bandwidth is a fraction of what it'd be if it was just a
direct download. The best part is the more popular the file (like the
boingboing traffic hit), the more people download it from each other
instead of your server.
- Setting up your own bittorrent server still a pain in the butt.
This needs to be as difficult as setting up apache on a windows
desktop. I want to see a BT server exe I click, install, then seed
files easily using a web or desktop front-end (yay! Andy sent this and this). Or make an
apache module. Also, build BT support into Mozilla, right now. BT is a
great technology that solves a fundamental problem we all face
everyday, but we have to walk people through how to download the
clients first. In some of the data I saw on the Lessig book
downloads, only about 5% of users opted to use BT to download, the
rest just got it off the server directly. We need more regular folks
using BT, by having it built into browsers.
Adventures in Cream
Adventures in Cream
11/11/2003 08:07 PMAck! Every other pint of heavy whipping cream has this crap called
Carrageenan. For some reason, it gives me a headache. Clover could be
counted on to deliver a quality product, but it's only available at
local Whole Foods stores - one around the corner from my apartment,
and the other sits further down the 101. Either they're temporarily
out of stock, or they're just not interested in keeping my store in
stock. When I went back this afternoon, they had Alta Dena cartons on
the shelf - which were previously known to have carried icky
preservatives. When I inspected the label, the only ingredient was
pure cream. I brewed a pot of coffee to give 'er the taste test, and
this is just disgusting. I'm gonna "have to" drive down the road and
pray that my brand can be found at the next possible grocery location.
I may have to wait until later this evening to leave in order to avoid
traffic congestion. I suppose I could call ahead, but... where's the
fun in that?...

pairing up the past few weeks to work on some type of project. After a
few weeks of what can only be called "Spikes", we settled in and are
beginning to get some real user stories mapped out and some code
written to fulfill them. Daniel chronicled the session below.
Daniel and I are a good Pairing team and we go back a long way which
helps. But it can also lead to unwanted sidetracks. Last night we
stayed focused and didn't stray too far from the chosen path. Onward!

ArchipelagoSXSW 2005 adventures
SXSW 2005 adventures
03/19/2005 02:37 AMI'm on the plane back to NYC from what was my fifth SXSW. I hadn't been for a
couple of years and it was good (and a little weird) to be back. Some
thoughts, in rough chronological order:
Best panels I attended: tie between Jason Fried's
How to Make Big Things Happen with Small Teams and Malcolm
Gladwell's keynote. Having read Blink and seen him speak on it twice before, there was nothing
much new in Malcolm's talk, but he's a fantastic speaker...knows his
shit cold, didn't utter a single "um" or "like", could make the phone
book seem interesting, but doesn't have to caper about the stage to be
compelling.
Everyone was nice. Well, there was that one guy who was an asshole,
but I think everyone pretty much ignored him. But everyone else, so
nice to get to meet you or see you again.
Overheard in the hallway: "no woman who knows that much about CSS
should be that good looking", "here's how I met Marc Canter for the
first time: I'm standing outside at a conference, he comes up beside
me and farts", "I have no idea who you are", "surf the glue", "no one
will get naked in the hot tub with me", and "Ima
gine Malcolm Gladwell...with breasts. That's how busy it will
be."
My two panels sandwiched the keynote conversation between Bruce
Sterling and Alex Steffen, so I was only able to catch about 20
minutes of it. But that was long enough to hear Bruce talking about
smoking his shoes. LOL for reals.
BBQ! BBQ! In what could be a record for a bunch of
folks who can't pay attention to any particular thing for more than 10
minutes at a time, fifteen of us waited an hour and a half for a table
at Stubb's (cool menu
pictured at right). I can't speak for the rest, but my beef brisket
was worth the wait. As a bonus, Kathryn accidentally walked away with
the primary object of our obsession during our 90 minute wait, the
buzzing/blinking table-readiness notification coaster. I'm sure said
coaster will be a treasured guest at many SXSWs to come.
Bruce Sterling's not-house party didn't really get crackin' until
the geeks descended on the Zoob toys. The
photo evidence
pretty much speaks for itself here.
Ben Brown, because he asked
me to. Many, many times. Ben, I expect you to comply with the terms of
the restraining order from this point forward.
And finally, I'm at the airport ready to leave just after getting
through security and I hear, "your attention please, Jason Kottke to
security check 3 for a lost item pickup". Bag, check; rollie, check;
coat, check; phone and wallet, safely stowed in the zipper pocket of
my bag. What the heck could they have found and how on earth do they
know it's mine? I zipped over the security check point and was waved
over by a friendly/stern police officer. "You Jason?" "Yep." He holds
up my wallet, which I swear on a stack of The Origin of Species was in
my bag. "Holy crap," I said. "And that's not the worst part," he says
with the most serious look I've ever seen on anyone's face.
Uh oh, I feel a full body cavity search coming on.
He pulls out my social security card and lectures me for two
minutes on how I shouldn't be carrying it because it's all someone
needs to steal my identity. Relieved that I'm not about to be hauled
into a tiny windowless room for interrogation, I'm sort of chuckling
at this point, which he takes to mean I don't believe him about the SS
card. "Do you see me looking you right in the eye, son? That's how
serious I am about this." Mr. Sir, as soon as I'm home, I'm taking my
SS card out of my wallet and putting it in the safest place I
can...right after I change into some clean underwear.
