The origins of the term "inside baseball" are in one writer's view of sports reporting during the 1980s. He's Bill James, now a famous scholar of baseball. The arguments he made then explain why the term migrated so easily to politics. The inside, said James, is a hall of mirrors.

Bye bye rat race


Bye bye rat race 06/19/2004 07:39 PM

I have decided to quit my job, and start my own company. I've learnt a lot working on information architectures for enterprise portals here in the US, but the time has come to move on.

I have many plans, I'll talk about those later. But first, this summer, I am going to spend a few months traveling. I love to travel, but being in the rat race for the past 5 years has meant I haven't seen as much of the world as I wanted to. So that's gonna change. India's first on the list. I only have two months this summer, but it's better than nothing.

Meanwhile, if you want to discuss a project you think I might be interested in, or are looking for an information architecture consultant, get in touch.

I plan to mix consulting with creating my own projects. Exciting times!

This month's issue of Wired Magazine includes a feature about robotics for which I was one of several contributors:
Consider the progress of just the past 15 years. There are now robots that can get around on two legs, participate in simple conversations, and manipulate objects in rudimentary ways. Of course, we don't yet have a bot that can navigate downtown Manhattan, tie its shoelaces, or even tell a chair from a desk. MIT's Cynthia Breazeal holds out hope that within five years, robots will cross a critical threshold, becoming partners rather than tools - in other words, we'll have friends, not appliances. And while there are a number of extremely complex problems to solve before we can make something as advanced as Sonny, the star of I, Robot, we're getting there, one piece at a time. To find out where the state of the art lies, Wired surveyed the projects that might one day add up to an android just like the rest of us.

A whole new race into space


A whole new race into space 06/01/2004 06:34 PM
“Willing to pony up a cool $100,000 for a thrill ride just a few minutes long? Tech-happy entrepreneurs are betting on plenty of yes answers from deep-pocket daredevils—if it’s by private rocket to the edge of space and back. The highlight, after a boost to several thousand miles per hour nearly straight up, would be three or four minutes of zero gravity and the view of a sunlit Earth’s horizon curving awesomely along an ebony, star-flecked sky. You might even be able to keep your spacesuit as a souvenir.”

The race and the swift


The race and the swift 08/27/2004 02:13 PM
It feels more than a little surreal, rejoining the news after a week off the grid. I seem to have returned to an alternate universe in which the Democrats' war-hero candidate has been put on the defensive by the Republicans' Guard-duty-shirking president thanks to a patently false television ad. The economy wheezes on, the situation in Iraq continues to deteriorate, but -- thanks to deft work by the Bush family smear machine -- the top political story is, what did or didn't happen on a Vietnamese river three decades ago?

No one should question for a second the effectiveness of this Bush tactic. It is precisely what has worked for Bush campaigns past (vide Dukakis/Willie Horton, or the anti-McCain blitz in South Carolina 2000), and there is every sign it is working again.

Josh Marshall accurately, I think, identifies the (crudely but aptly labeled) "bitch-slap" psychodynamics of the Swift Boat Veterans story: Facts are nearly irrelevant here; this is about punching John Kerry and seeing whether he punches back, and how hard. If he fails to punch back, he's exposed as a sissy who's not tough enough to defend America. If he does fight back, the Bushies simply point at him -- as they have already begun to -- and claim that he's lost it, he's "wild-eyed" and unreliable and unfit to be president.

It's exactly what every Democratic strategist knew was coming. It's cunning, and inevitable, and low. And I think the only answer for the Kerry campaign is to call Bush out, directly, on its lowness. The trouble, of course, is that as long as you're responding to fraudulent Swift Boat Veteran ads you're allowing Bush to dominate the agenda. You need to punch back hard, and only then move on.

George Bush is acting like a latter-day Joseph McCarthy -- albeit one smart enough to use shadowy surrogates for his dirty work and retain semi-plausible deniability. So the best way to stop him, I'm convinced, is to stand up and call out his campaign's slime for what it is. (The new Kerry TV ad, "Old Tricks," begins to take on this job.)

McCarthyism was stopped dead in its tracks on June 9, 1954, exactly half a century ago, when a lawyer named Joseph Welch turned on the Red-baiting senator with a withering, "Have you no sense of decency, sir? At long last, have you left no sense of decency?" Welch had finally said out loud what a lot of people had long been thinking about McCarthy.

Today's media-saturated environment is different; nothing is left unsaid for very long, and what matters is what gets repeated most often. Still, it seems to me that John Kerry's best plan is to find and deploy the 2004 equivalent of Welch's retort. Have you no decency, George Bush, at long last?

E conomics and Race: "Twenty-seven-year-old Harvard economist Roland Fryer grew up poor and black, in a family that was falling apart. His mother abandoned him. His father drank heavily and beat him. Fryer sold drugs and carried a gun. Then, at age 15, after he got pulled over by the police and then let go, he decided he wanted something different."
