‘Vision Work’ from Dr Eli Goldratt 03/14/2005 04:09 PM
Dr. Eliyahu Goldratt, author of the international best-selling business book “The Goal” will be in Bogota on April 5, Chicago April 8, Amsterdam April 19, and Kiev April 21 for his Viable Vision Offer world tour. Other countries on the 2005 tour include: China, Chile, Hungary, India, and Brazil. The Viable Vision Offer is based on Goldratt’s body of work in the Theory of Constraints (TOC). Goldratt defines a Viable Vision as the specific strategy and tactics to turn a company’s current sales level into their profit level within 4 years. For example, a $100 million sales company will achieve a $100 million profit level within 4 years. [PRWEB Mar 9, 2005]

Attention to Mr. Orlowski has apparently waned, so his trash is back. You might not get this from his article, but even though he states "[t]his week Trudeau has turned his attention to the 'Creative Commons' project," in fact, Trudeau does not mention "Creative Commons" at all. Indeed, for anyone who knows anything about what Creative Commons is trying to do, no doubt Thudpucker is a funny character but his views have little to do with mine, or CC's. And as for the project that has "failed to gain much traction," we were surprised (and pleased) to see this week that the Yahoo linkback search to Creative Commons licenses is now over 10,000,000. If that's right, then we were at 1,000,000 link backs in a year, 5,000,000 in two, and now over 10,000,000 in 2 1/2. Imagine what we could have done had we only gotten some "traction." But the best part of reading this article is that it advertises at the bottom "related articles," including this. I am astonished that The Register continues to carry this trash (or, for that matter, its author). As I told them then, the article is a lie. Not mistaken, but a lie: a knowing falsehood, published, and published still. Such is the nature of the writer, and apparently the publication.

Top 10 Mac Failures

Top 10 Mac Failures 02/01/2005 09:08 PM

Top 10 Mac Failures: An interesting look at Apple miscues. Among them, the Flower Power/Blue Dalmation iMac and my personal choice of unforgiveable design, the round mouse.

Users were not universally pleased with the new mouse. It was now totally symmetrical, preventing many users from easily telling which way is up. Also, the smaller design made it difficult for large handed users to use it comfortably.

Man, I hate those round mice.

You know what's not in here? The Newton, which supports my theory of a few weeks ago.

As for the patterned iMac, the whole colored-machine thing was flawed from the beginning. I worked at Best Buy in 1998 when the iMac hit the market. Best Buy was apparently told that they couldn't order more or less of one color — they could only place an order for a set number of iMacs, and they'd get an equal division of each color in the shipment.

Consequently, one of the biggest electronic retailers in the country dropped the iMac from its shelves, and it's never returned (not that it hurt Apple much...). The colors should have been snap-on shells, so you could swap them out if you ever got sick of them.

But, in the end, the color served its purpose. Think back to the original iMac and what do you remember? All-in-one design, no floppy, and colored cases. The last item on that list was what got all the press. Would the iMac be where it is today if they had all been in beige cases? Not a chance.

On Hardware Failures

On Hardware Failures 01/01/2004 02:15 AM
One of the computer industry's dirty little secrets is hardware failure. The few of us who work in, near, or otherwise around large computer installations take this for granted. Companies like Yahoo have people on staff that spend a lot of their time dealing with failing memory, buggy motherboards, smoked power supplies, bad disks, and overheating CPUs. Google, from what I read, doesn't even bother anymore. But the larger world probably doesn't see this very often. Many are likely just...

Disputing Municipal Network Failures

Disputing Municipal Network Failures 03/19/2005 02:24 AM

The folks at Tricitybroadband.com have a page that refutes failures: Many of the anti-municipal networking foes have released misinformation about what they describe as financially flawed or failed networks around the U.S. Unfortunately, although there are certainly municipal services that haven't worked out--there have to be some failures--the ones that are bandied about are typically misrepresented. Tricitybroadband.com has a regularly updated page that provides the official response and financial details refuting this misinformation.

The point here would be to work with facts: if the facts that the utilities, cities, or Tricitybroadband is presenting are incorrect, then other facts could refute them. We could have, say, a real debate going in which real information was presented, examined, and conclusions reached.

New Municipal Reports Debunk Network
Failures

New Municipal Reports Debunk Network
Failures 04/11/2005 01:03 PM
Remember how the anti-municipal sock puppets and ideologues keep citing the same failures? They're not failures. In fact, they're generally successes. You hear Tacoma, Wash.; Ashland, Ore.; Braintree, Mass.; Marietta, Georgia; and others bandied about as failures that have drained taxpayer inputs and failed to live up to their financial projects. As I discovered when starting down the research path on this two months ago, those networks are successes: the numbers that "prove" their failure are typically cherrypicked from early construction stages or even take numbers that were planning figures and weren't used during the approval stages by voters, city councils, or boards of directors. The people at Free Press have released a comprehensive report, "Telco Lies and the Truth about Municipal Broadband Networks," (PDF) that includes the first-hand research that the authors of the reports that declare these networks failures never did. The Beacon Hill Institute report last spring, for instance, cites a number of cases using newspaper article, defunct Web sites, and early projects and apparently never actually spoke to the network operators about details. (I take the report apart in a post a few weeks ago.) All academics will tell you that primary sources are how you do it. If you talk to a primary source and they have publicly available documentation to back up what they say, then you can confirm or reject the contentions of that primary source. You can bring in other primary sources who have opposing views and facts. But if you rely on second or third hand reports, you will invariably produce conclusions that are poorly founded. The Free Press counters the misinformation that's been provided in two ways: first, by showing the fruit of the poisoned tree, a several-year-old report that gets cited today as if the information is contemporary (and it was bad back then, too); and, second, by using primary sources to show how each of these networks is producing the kinds of financial results that should encourage this sort of local development. A second report, "Connecting People: The Truth about Municipal Broadband," (PDF) handles the arguments about whether municipal networks improperly take the role of private enterprise in a new and unique way and suck the revenue and development that comes from private infrastructure into a municipal maw. This report also tries to address misinformation about the way in which these networks operator, historical antecedents about municipal...
