Wall climbing spybot = $14,000

Wall climbing spybot = $14,000 06/04/2004 12:09 PM
This $14,000 wireless spycam purportedly climbs all sorts of vertical surfaces. I wish I could see a video of it in action.

"A revolutionary, new remote controlled (R/C) robot. The SpyBot Climber easily scales many smooth and uneven vertical surfaces – wall board, plaster, brick, cinder block, and siding are negotiable for this versatile robot. It can even go across sturdy ceilings if placed there first – although it can transition from a horizontal (ground) surface to a vertical one, and back, it can not go from a vertical to an inverted surface or directly around corners unassisted."

SpyBot Wall Climbing Camera Bot

SpyBot Wall Climbing Camera Bot 06/03/2004 03:11 PM

Okay, if you're not a filthy pervert, skip to the last paragraph. Thanks.

So what I need from you is $14k. I know it sounds like a lot, but if you cough it up I can get you one of these SpyBot Climber R/C robots that traverse and adhere to all sorts of surfaces, like the brickwork on that building across the street and you'll be able to wireless transmit images from the apartment of your 100% authentic girlfriend. Sure, you haven't talked to her yet, but with after reconnoitering her place for a while you'll be able to finally break the ice with openers like, "Hey, I'm out of toilet paper, too!" Okay, now go away.

For everybody else, isn't creepy how much this looks like a normal device, like a service box or something? Except most gas meters don't crawl up the side of buildings, at least not during the day. I wonder if the 'patented technology' allows it to stay in place even when the battery runs out? It better for $14,000.

BEA: huge adoption curve climbing very

BEA: huge adoption curve climbing very
fast for Linux. 03/11/2003 09:43 AM

From Computer World's interview with BEA's CEO Alfred Chuang:

What Linux trends are you seeing with BEA software?

Huge adoption curve climbing very fast for BEA over the last six to nine months. A lot of focus in the financial services marketplace, where there's a lot of experimentation and initial deployment going on with Linux on Intel. And I think the motivation in that arena is simplification and cost reduction, so they are looking to buy significantly less expensive hardware.

What's the breakdown of platforms on which BEA software is running?

About 50% is on Sun, and about 23%, 24% is on Hewlett-Packard. Hewlett-Packard has both Intel and non-Intel platforms in there. And then it drops off pretty quick. IBM hardware, I think, is 5% or 7%. In some countries, we sell a lot of IBM's hardware.

What about the Linux operating system?

Linux is around the 15% to 20% range, which has climbed pretty quickly.

Coding Frenzy

Coding Frenzy 05/14/2004 09:02 AM
Warning: techtalk follows, you may freely skip this if your eyes glaze over at the word "XML".

I've been in a coding frenzy for the past couple of days. JSPWiki has had some considerable additions, here being the relevant part of the ChangeLog:

2004-05-14  Janne Jalkanen 
<Janne.Jalkanen@nospam.ecyrd.com>

        * v2.1.97.

        * Added preliminary support for the Atom blog API.  It still
does
        not yet completely work, however.

I'll be a non-productive member of the society for the next three-four days (another wedding? Don't people get tired of these things already?), so nothing much may happen. But yeah, I nearly got ecto working with JSPWiki.

There is still however a question on how the blog and wiki apis should interact. You see, the page Main on this site is both a weblog and a wiki page. I'm having trouble, you see:

• GET to /atom/ lists all wiki pages (which means that even on this site, there are a lot of them) - not just the weblogs (since every page can be a weblog, even the weblog entry pages)
• GET to /atom/Main... Should it list all of the blog entries, or should it GET the Wiki page content? Both are valid interpretations...

I'm confused... Which is the correct way to handle this? Should a WikiWebl og combination have separate URIs for Wiki and Weblog functionality? Isn't that kinda redundant?

Xeni Jardin: A new type of lens may make blurry phonecam snapshots a thing of the past:

A specially shaped camera lens and processing method to ensure images are always in focus has been developed. Physicist Dr Andy Harvey said it was a "simple system with a simple lens" which uses an optical encoder so that no information in images is lost. Developed primarily for military night vision cameras, the technology could find its way into camera phones.

Useful Applescripts for coding PHP in
BBEdit

Useful Applescripts for coding PHP in
BBEdit 12/12/2003 07:48 PM
At work I spend a lot of time coding, which means I also spend a lot of time using BBEdit . Thankfully it's a fantastic program with excellent Applescript integration. As a PHP coder, I thought I'd share some of the great Applescripts that are out there to enhance your coding experience, and hopefully save you some time. VoidFil lPHP This is a PHP code completion script. Type the beginning of function name, hit F1 (or whatever key you've assigned it to), and it provides a list a potential matches (e.g. type html and you can choose from html_entity_decode, htmlentities or htmlspecialchars). Search php.net for selection It does what it says on the tin. Highlight a PHP function or keyword, hit the assigned key combination, and it fires up a browser window and searches through the manual on php.net for the function or keyword. Very useful if you've not got a PHP reference book handy. PHP Syntax Check Written by John Gruber (a former Bare Bones developer, so he obviously knows a thing or two), this flexible script can scan your document for PHP parsing errors (highlighting the problematic lines). The script can also replace the built-in HTML Document Syntax command, so it can check the syntax of your HTML also. Pretty nifty huh? What other Applescripts make your BBEdit life easier?

SitePoint: Why You Need Coding Standards

SitePoint: Why You Need Coding Standards 09/23/2004 08:58 AM
In a new article on Sitepoint, David Mytton explains why coding standards are important not only to the individual developer or development team, but to the script users as well. He takes a problem-solution approach to creating maintainable code, peeks at different coding standards, and also has a zip file of his own coding standards that you may want to use.
