Father's Day Gift

Father's Day Gift 06/22/2005 02:59 AM

What did I get for Father's Day? Moleskines: a pocket addressbook and a fullsize notebook. Along with the pocket notebook I had, it's almost a family. I'll have to get a mama moleskine (fullsize diary) though so the papa moleskine (fullsize notebook) won't feel lonely. And perhaps a fully figured sketchbook from Volant on the side...

I've heard old-timers say that back in the day, when pulling an all-nighter at the data center, they would put hot dogs on top of an IBM S/360 mainframe to warm them up. Now that's what I call a classical batch environment. These days, batch is a whole 'nother thing. So this week our excuse to break free of those GUI chains for awhile will be to take a look at a handy little program called batch, natch.

The issue was a misnamed Form variable. :)~ Saw it in the first 5 mintues this morning. A fresh head always helps.

.NET's code behind feature is great. I getting used to using it properly. One pet peeve. I learned VB purely from the Microsoft Documentation and a couple of books. The code samples are too complex in .Net's documentation. They need to provide smaller pieces of functionality. For example, to describe creating a web component, they try and take you through an entire application. Not very XPish of them. too much clutter. All I need for an example, is an example of the component and the component being embedded in the page. All the rest confuses the issue.

Lorcan Dempsey posted some astounding numbers to his blog yesterday. Emphasis below is mine. Prepare to be amazed.

WorldCat in Your Pocket

“WorldCat is our union catalogue of about 56 million bibliographic records, which represent approximately a billion holdings. It is about 50 gigabytes in MARC Communications (100+ gigabytes in XML) format and about 23 gigabytes compressed.

OCLC Research recently acquired a 24-node (48-cpu) Beowulf cluster with 96 Gigabytes of memory. According to my colleague Thom Hickey, whose team has been working on the machine, the cluster speeds up most bibliographic processing by about a factor of 30. This means that what might have taken a minute now takes two seconds, what might have taken an hour takes two minutes, what might have taken a month takes a day. For jobs that will fit entirely in memory (e.g. a `grep' of WorldCat) avoiding disk i/o gives another factor of about 20, reducing 1-hour jobs down to 6 seconds. We can 'frbrize< /a>' WorldCat on the cluster in about an hour.

WorldCat is also now more mobile. Thom has a 40 gig iPod which can accommodate WorldCat on its disk with room left for 5,000 song tracks. Now, you can't do much with the data on the iPod, but you can certainly carry it around. Again, it takes about an hour to get it on and off the iPod.” [Lorcan Dempsey’s Weblog, via It&rs quo;s All Good]

They’re all amazing numbers, but think about that iPod statement for a moment. What does it mean when a patron can carry around the whole, freaking WorldCat database? We’re not that far off from the introduction of the personal, mobile server in your pocket.

It’s like this: you get a slightly-scary physical symptom and you go and tell your doctor and she frowns and says “well, we better run some tests and make a date with a specialist”, and you go to the specialist and he works you over and looks at the tests and says “yeah, that’s a weird one, it happens sometimes, we don’t know why, it might happen again, it won’t hurt you, don’t worry about it.”
