Hacking matter
Hacking matter
06/24/2004 06:41 AMI've been reading Wil McCarthy's book
Hacking Matter, which is a popularized version
of the serious study of quantum dots and the ability to build
pseudomatter using artificial atoms. How can one not like a book,
which contains wonderful sentences such as this one:
- Now we can create not only a thin film of goldlike
pseudomatter, but a three-dimensional solid with pseudogold dopant
atoms on the inside as well. Thus, we can generate a bulk material
with the mass of wickered silicon, but the physical, chemical, and
electrical properties of an otherwise-impossible gold/silicon
alloy.
I mean - even the minuscule thought of it is breathtaking! The
wonders of the universe! How could one not love this world, when so
many incredible things are about? This could, and would change the
face of the world as we know it. You just flick a switch, and you can
make a part of the wall transparent - or a light source - or a TV
screen - or gold. Whatever pleases you.
As an aside, I also found another very interesting paragraph (among
thousands, but this one has an ominous look):
- At his insistence, we filed an application with the
United States Patent and Trademark Office, and within a few weeks we'd
been contacted by the U.S. Air Force about the possibility of maybe
licensing it.
Note that even in the US, patents are generally considered secret and
proprietary, until a year of the filing date has passed. This is so
that the application can be amended, fixed, and just being kept secret
from the competitors, who might find a way to redesign around the
actual implementation (ideas are not patentable as such). Obviously,
the military is ignoring all that and have their own informants within
the US patent process... Somehow, that does not surprise me at
all.

Found to be Overwhelmingly Superficial: Here's a summation of a
new Web site credibility report. A little
depressing.
The data showed that the average consumer paid far more
attention to the superficial aspects of a site, such as visual cues,
than to its content. For example, nearly half of all consumers (or
46.1%) in the study assessed the credibility of sites based in part on
the appeal of the overall visual design of a site, including layout,
typography, font size and color schemes.
Those guys from Average
Joe are screwed.

05/07/2004 04:14 PMFollowing on the post we had yesterday about why Nicholas Carr is
barking
up the wrong tree with his thesis that IT doesn't matter, here's
an article from Don Tapscott in CIO magazine
taking apart
Carr's ideas in detail. It's really an update to a previous talk
Tapscott gave criticizing Carr's ideas, but it's well worth the read.
He makes the argument that companies that buy into Carr's beliefs are
effectively going to commit suicide, and supports my belief in
"fleeting competitive advantages" rather than sustainable ones by
saying: "The speed of the competition is accelerating and competitors
are trying to catch up. This is the new normal. Companies need to be
more agile. Get used to it!"

An open letter to the
Citizens of Atwood. This past week, the residents of the small
town of Atwood, Kansas voted 984 to 113 to deny gay couples any rights
for their relationships (including hospital visitation). Now, the man
who set up the town's newspaper website has not only left Atwood, but
taken down the website and posted a (mostly) measured response to the
town in place of it. Will putting a human face on those being
discriminated against ever change the minds of some people, or is one
passage in the bible enough for some people to keep justifying their
bigoted ways?

most executives looked down on computers as proletarian tools —

says that approximately one in four workers have had problems with
their colleagues who
misunderstood or didn't
appreciate humor in emails that were sent. Not surprisingly, it
was the men who more often found their weak attempts at humor missing
the mark. Of course, it's unclear from the study if the incidents
were simply misunderstandings or (more likely) because they just
weren't funny.

Missing Matter Found
02/05/2005 10:16 PMFrom a Story in Wired
For years,
astrophysicists have been boggled by the fact that the grand sum of
all the known "normal" matter in the universe -- that which makes up
the stars, the Earth and even our own bodies -- only amounts to half
of what should exist based on computer simulations.
Given that multiple simulations have continually yielded the same
result, they theorized that the rest of the normal matter, known as
baryons, must be hiding somewhere in the space between galaxies.
However, they haven't had much evidence to support the theory until
now.
A new study conducted with the help of the Earth-orbiting Chandra X-ray Observatory has
revealed the existence of baryons in at least two giant, intergalactic
clouds of super-hot gas 150 million and 380 million light-years from
our planet.
The study, which appears in the Feb. 3 issue of the journal
Nature, shows how certain wavelengths of X-rays emitted
from a distant galaxy in the constellation Ursa Major are being
absorbed by the two clouds. The absorption pattern, as detected by
Chandra, is consistent with interference caused by carbon, neon,
nitrogen and oxygen ions -- in other words, baryons.

Middleware dark matter
Middleware dark matter
04/20/2004 10:08 AM
Steve Vinoski, middleware architect at IONA and a prolific columnist,
has been blogging for a couple of months at
Middleware Matters. Back
in 2002, his IEEE Internet Computing column used the title that I
stole for this blog entry:
Middleware Dark Matter. The reference is to Clay Shirky's
excellent meme "PCs are the dark matter of the Internet," which helped
the peer-to-peer movement define itself circa 2000. Vinoski wrote:
We can apply a similar analogy to middleware because the mass of the
middleware universe is much greater than the systems -- such as
message-oriented middleware (MOM), enterprise application integration
(EAI), and application servers based on Corba or J2EE -- that we
usually think of when we speak of middleware. We tend to forget or
ignore the vast numbers of systems based on other approaches. We can't
see them, and we don't talk about them, but they're out there solving
real-world integration problems -- and profoundly influencing the
middleware space. These systems are the dark matter of the middleware
universe. [Steve Vinoski]
