Want to see how much more information is stored in a photo taken with a 6+ megapixel digital SLR? I took a few test shots with my new Digital Rebel at the highest jpeg quality setting, which is about 3000x2000 images (not a RAW or TIFF image). Here's a shot of my cat sitting in the sun, downsized to 750x500. And here's a 750x500 chunk of the original photo. Notice there's nary a hint of pixelation anywhere. After years of using 1 megapixel cameras and more recently a 3 megapixel camera, the stuff coming out of the SLR is unbelieveable.

I haven't printed anything with this camera yet but I bet prints from inkjets or ofoto are going to look superb given all the detail in these images.

Damn. Did it again.

Felt tired at 10pm last night. Laid down for a bit. Woke up at 5:30am today. So much for the stuff I planned to do last night. On the plus side, I'll be to work way early, so I can come home earlier than normal. Yeay!...

I sent an email to a friend this morning asking for help thinking of technology people who meet a particular parameter, you know, along the lines of "Do you know any techies who ____?" Unfortunately, my friend forwarded my hastily written mail to about 20 people who might also be able to fill in the blank. One of those twenty mentioned Metcalfe's Law in her reply. Someone else talked about the need to supplement that law in order to understand a different aspect of social dynamics. Someone else commented, contradicted, expanded... Now those 20 people — strangers — are...

No, It's Not Our Own Damn Fault

No, It's Not Our Own Damn Fault 09/07/2004 01:04 AM

In response to my rant about integrated library system vendors, Peter Rukavina says that it's our own damn fault.

"When you outsource the administration of your data to someone else (whether it's an OPAC vendor or a university computing department or some guy down the street), you're also outsourcing any chance you have at retaining ultimate control over that data.

When you buy a 'one size fits all' technology solution -- an OPAC that's designed for, say, 'any public library' -- you're buying a commodity, not a solution.

And you should expect to be treated as an insignificant cog by your vendor: that's what you are. By absolving yourself of personal responsibility over your data management in the first place, you've already said 'we don't care enough about this to do it ourselves, so you take care of it for us.' Is it any wonder they treat you like they do?"

While I understand the spirit of his response and I wish that we did have some of our best and brightest programmers devoted to creating the one true catalog (rather than working on it as time permits at their real job or doing it at home on their own time), nonprofit libraries just don't have the option for which Peter advocates.

I bought a new car this year because I was unhappy with some of the things about my old car. Using Peter's logic, I shouldn't have outsourced my new vehicle to a car manufacturer, but I did. I just didn't have the time, money, or other resources to build one myself.

Yeah, it's over the top, but you get my point. Ambulance drivers don't make the ambulances, doctors don't make the defibrillators, lawyers don't make the Lexis-Nexis database, and programmers use operating systems developed by someone else (even if it's Linux).

You can't outsource everything, and libraries have to prioritize what to expend their limited amounts of resources on. Can they build their own cars? No, but they can certainly switch to one made by another manufacturer.

Getting rid of those damn bars

Getting rid of those damn bars 03/28/2005 01:38 PM
For months and months I've been ignoring the ugly horizontal bars that show up in the box at the top of my archive pages. One crosses out "An Entry from the Archives" and the other runs underneath that text. They don't show up in Microsoft IE but they do in Firefox and Safari. Generous reader Miles of TinyApps, a site I never tire of recommending to y'all, scouted out the html code and found the offending lines. Apparently the Style property "text-decoration: none;" renders as blue underlines in Firefox and Safari, although I'm sure it will turn out to have...

Ah, what a perfect morning. Crispy matzoh for breakfast, a cup of delicious coffee, and then a couple of hours trying to clean my PC of adware and spyware, some of it fiendishly clever and as tough to pry out as a hermit crab that's grown into its shell. Adaware works pretty well - extremely well since it's free - but there are some objects that it can't delete because they are in use. And neither can I, even doing a safe mode start-up. Die 3avxfmcodec.cpy.dll, die! Some of the little wankers get loaded via my Hosts file, and then...

I have to say that I agree Dave Winer in this AP article:

While I think Dave should have posted a warning ahead of time to users and can take steps to get the sites back online sooner, making this front page news at Yahoo.com (screenshot) is insane, not to mention the ridiculous headline.

Damn you Japanese politicians!

Damn you Japanese politicians! 05/08/2004 07:53 AM

I rarely say "fuck" on my blog, but "Fuck you Japanese politicians!" (Lucky the FCC doesn't control my blog... yet.) I've paid about 1/2 of all of my life earnings in tax to the Japanese government and have paid my premiums to the national pension system even though studies that I worked on at the Association of Corporate Executives showed that I would most likely not benefit from these pensions. Now it turns out many Japanese politicians don't pay their national pension premiums. Actually, a third of the cabinet members haven't paid their pension premiums. The "Vice President" of Japan, Yasuo Fukuda just resigned for not paying his premiums. This is all amid a move by the government to increase premiums and lower pay-outs. The study we did showed that unless you were about retirement age today, would would most likely receive "0" from the pension system.

What's worse is that they use strong arm tactics like using the agricultural union (which hires retired bureaucrats and takes a commission) and other semi-public organizations to collect premiums from average citizens.

This is totally disgusting and I really wonder why I live and pay taxes in such a corrupt country.

Sorry I don't have links and references. This is a spur of the moment emotional post based on newspapers and radio that I skimmed today while I was trying to relax.

The New York Times reports that after months of fierce criticism, the House Majority Leader and his cadre of Republican allies have bailed out on a proposed ethics rule-change that would protect DeLay by keeping him in power even if he were to come under indictment.

How unstable is the mortgage bubble and where are the opportunities for investors if the bubble bursts?
