Bill O'Reilly mistakes Globe and Mail
for Socialist Worker

Bill O'Reilly mistakes Globe and Mail
for Socialist Worker 04/22/2004 02:38 PM
Bill O'Reilly called The Globe and Mail, a rock-ribbed, conservative Canadian newspaper "the far-left Toronto Globe and Mail," because a columnist in the paper descibed the Fox News Network (which is coming to Canada) as humorously exemplary of American foolishness. O'Reilly urged his listeners to write in to the columnist and give him what-for, and they did, calling him an "intellectual" and a "Canadian" and asking if he'd ever served in Vietnam.

Reacting to my column, which cheerfully suggested that the proposal to bring the Fox News Channel to Canada should be acted upon promptly, so that we can all take a look, and get a laugh, O'Reilly gave us a Fox-style whacking. In his segment The Most Ridiculous Item of the Day, he quoted from my column (which called him "pompous"), dismissed The Globe as a lefty outfit and said, "Hey you pinheads up there, I may be pompous, but at least I'm honest."

Party Like It’s 1996!

Party Like It’s 1996! 07/06/2004 01:57 AM
I’m a major admirer of Safari and of its primary author Dave Hyatt. But a couple of Dave’s recent notes have caused me serious discomfort. Here he notes that Safari will support a new search= attribute on the input element, and here he discusses a new canvas element. Even more troubling is the opening phrase: Another extension we made to HTML is... I’d be really happy if someone explained to me how this is different from what Netscape and Microsoft did to each other so irritatingly back in 1996 (<MARQUEE> anyone?). What the W3C and Web Standards Project were created to stop? [By the way, there are namespaces, there are class= attributes, there are legitimate ways to extend HTML.] Someone please explain to me why I’m wrong, because I really hope this isn’t what it looks like.

Of all the personal computers to be unwrapped during the holiday season, more than 80 percent will be used to go online and search the Web's more than 92 million gigabytes of data (comparable to a 2 billion-volume encyclopedia). Getting online is the easy part, finding a useful Web page is a bit harder—keeping track of a useful Web page is another issue altogether.

People have devised many tricks—such as sending e-mails to themselves or jotting on sticky notes—for keeping track of Web pages, but William Jones and Harry Bruce at the University of Washington's Information School and Susan Dumais of Microsoft Research have found that often people don't use any of them when it comes time to revisit a Web page. Instead, they rely on their ability to find the Web page all over again.

« A postcard of the Helsinki Kauppatori circa 1940. »

My mother-in-law, Eila, recently found a few more vintage Helsinki postcards at a fleamarket in the series I am particularly interested in. I'm not a professional collector, but I really would like to find out more about Suomen Kuvataide Oy, the company who printed these cards, and more about the cards themselves. I have enough postcards now that I will start putting together a postcard section for the website. There was a postcard show this weekend in the main postoffice, but we were too busy with a sick Otava to go. Part of the show, E aster Greetings, will continue through 3 April and will even be open over the long Easter weekend when everything else is closed and the streets of the city are deserted.

This is our last week in the old office building before we move to the new office building and people are either frantic or waiting around for the gears of progress to catch up. It has all the joys and expected last minute surprises that moving a big datacenter has to offer and, well, maybe a few extra just to keep things 'interesting'. I came in late on this project so my office is packed, the systems won't move for another two or three weeks and I'm just trying to stay out of the way when I can't be helpful.

I found out that I'm getting a corner office with walls of windows which amazed me since everyone else chose their offices long ago and this is one of the best offices on the floor. I looked a bit more closely at the floorplan and realised that everyone passed up the big, sunny office for much smaller and darker offices because, unlike me, they wouldn't have to share the space with anyone else. I'm so used to cubes that having only one other person in an office seems almost managerial. I thought being alone was what telecommuting was for. Solitude and privacy are such a driving force in Finland it's almost a miracle that people manage to meet, copulate and reproduce. ;)

Since I've been using the Powerbook (which I still need to replace with a newer one now that the "speed bump" is official), I've drastically changed my e-mail habits (personal mail, not work mail). In doing so, I wonder if I'm unusual in this respect. Previously, I was using mutt for e-mail on my IBM Thinkpad running Linux. If you've not tried it, mutt is really the king of all console-based mail programs. It excels at making it very easy...
