The Improved Web Kit
The Improved Web Kit
06/17/2005 02:53 PMWe've already received and committed several patches from external
contributors and the repository has only been live for a few
hours!
As some of you have already noticed (those of you that built), the
new Web Kit not only passes Acid2, but it's also substantially faster
at loading Web pages and at handling JavaScript. It contains a number
of additional performance improvements that went in post-Tiger.
One question people have asked is "Does this have to replace my
system frameworks?" The answer is "No." You can run this custom
version of Web Kit with a particular instance of Safari without
replacing your system frameworks. The run-safari script we
provided does this for you. If you study what it does, you'll see
that you can easily try out your own WebKit apps with the new
frameworks as well. We in fact encourage you to do this so that you
can make sure your apps are functioning properly with the latest
WebKit.

Improved Search
Improved Search
07/11/2004 10:27 PMI worked on improving the search on this site today. Search has
been through a number of iterations. First, I used the basic Movable
Type search. But it was slow and I wanted to do some interesting things with search.
So last year, I switched to using a SQL "LIKE" query to return
two-tiered results, first from the title and keywords, then from the
body and extended body. This has worked really well so far.
However, one thing bothered me about it: LIKE has no concept of
word boundaries. This...
WHERE entry_text LIKE '%date%'
...returns matches for "date," "update," etc. So, I changed it a
while ago to this syntax:
WHERE CONCAT(' ',entry_text,' ') LIKE CONCAT('% ','date','
%')
Basically, I started looking for the search term with a space on
either side. This turned out to be an astoundingly stupid way
to do it. What happens when the search term ends a sentence? Or
begins the entry? Newlines, periods, and question marks are not
spaces. Duh.
Today, however, I found the right way to do it:
WHERE entry_text RLIKE '[[:<:]]date[[:>:]]'
Those bracket-y things are MySQL's character classes for word
boundaries. So it's like my "tack a space on either side" method, but
it includes anything that's not a word. Very handy.
(But why don't I just use MySQL's full-text indexing, you ask?
Because this is a hosted server, so I have to live with all the
default MySQL settings. And the default settings exclude any word of
less than four characters from being indexed. So three-letter
acronyms like PHP, PDF, JSP, etc. wouldn't be in the index, and for a
site like this, that's kind of a showstopper.)
I also did a little hacking of the search phrase you submit. For
instance, searching for...
windows update
...will give you different results than if you search for...
"windows update"
Essentially, I tokenize the string but group quoted passages
together. So, this...
"four score and seven years ago" abraham lincoln
gettysburg
...would get tokenized like this:
Array
(
[0] => four
score and seven years ago
[1] =>
abraham
[2] => lincoln
[3] => gettysburg
)
Finally, I included some stop words to save my database some work.
This...
The penguin is the mascot of Linux
...gets reduced to this...
Array
(
[0] =>
penguin
[1] => mascot
[2] => linux
)
So, I'm hoping to shake a few bugs out of it in the next few weeks,
then I'll post the class so anyone who wants to can take a look at it.

Tigers in the Korean DMZ?
Tigers in the Korean DMZ?
09/11/2004 12:49 PM
Xeni Jardin:
Snipped from Bruce Sterling's Viridian Design email newsletter, a New
York Times story about wild animals reclaiming the heavily-landmined
DMZ that divides North and South Korea.
[E]nvironmentalists have recognized this area one of the most enduring
symbols of the cold war and one of the most fortified and heavily
mined stretches on earth as the Korean peninsula's, and possibly East
Asia's, most important wildlife refuge. They have been pressing to
preserve it but are feeling a special urgency now because of the
growing reconciliation between the North and the South. The
environmentalists fear that a South Korea that puts economic
development first and a North Korea that has no environmental movement
could together lead to the zone's rapid destruction as a refuge. (..)
"The DMZ is the last major vestige of Korea's natural heritage,"
said Kim Ke Chung, a professor at the Center for BioDiversity Research
at Penn State and chairman of the DMZ Forum, an organization based in
the United States that is dedicated to preserving the zone. "It's
probably the only good thing to come out of the Korean War and cold
war. So we have to preserve this as a nature reserve." [Bruce
Sterling says: "How did the Cold War become the 'cold war' all of a
sudden?]
The DMZ Forum recently held a conference in Seoul to gather support
for designating the zone a Unesco World Heritage Site, a
classification that would curb all development. William B. Shore,
secretary of the forum and a former fellow at the Regional Plan
Association of New York, said the zone should become a center for
eco-tourism as an alternative to turning it into a weekend getaway for
residents of Seoul.
"People are now willing to pay large sums to see wild animals in the
proper setting," Mr. Shore said. "Eco-tourism would protect the DMZ
from becoming the Hamptons of South Korea." [Bruce Sterling says:
"Perhaps it's possible to transform the Hamptons into a DMZ."]

OF ROOM, RUNNING OUT OF TIME
01/07/2004 01:22 PM
When I was researching the
article One Billion
Americans?,
I got thinking about the implications of the wildly conservative
Census
Bureau projections of US population, and the embarrassing drastic
upward revisions that have been made to them, for global
population projections. What made the US projections so wrong (US
population peaking at 295 million was predicted as recently as fifteen
years ago) was the compound error of underestimating the extent of
immigration and overestimating the rate at which immigrants adjust
their family size to the average of their new country, or the global
average. It's an understandable error -- there's lots of evidence that
population growth rates in the developing world are falling quickly.
But that's not because third
world countries are evolving to two-child-or-less families as infant
mortality drops. Rather, it's because those countries are simply
unable
to sustain more children, so parents are reluctantly, temporarily
reducing family size as a result. Give them the option to emigrate to
a
developed country, and cultural preference, religious dictates, and
improved health care will jump their family size (and life expectancy)
back up again. And as inevitable ecological and humanitarian
catastrophes arise in the 21st century in dozens of third world
countries, compounded by the scourges of new diseases, horrendous
shortages of clean water, and desertification and crop flooding due to
global warming, the pressure to increase immigration quotas by orders
of magnitude will be fierce.
Back in 1990 when the pundits were predicting US population would peak
at 295 million (it passed that level last year and is now expected to
peak at between 550 million and 1.2 billion, if it peaks at all), they
were saying global population would peak at around 9-11 billion in
2100. But for that to happen with a US population of, say, 900 million
instead of 300 million, would mean average third world family size
would be much smaller than average US family size. The UN projections,
for example, assume annual average growth rate for Africa, Asia and
Latin America of 0.5% in the latter half of this century, compared to
a
current growth rate in those areas (even including China with its
already-low birth rate) of 2.1%, and compared to a current US growth
rate of 0.9%, which is trending back up to a projected 1.3% rate for
most of the current century, thanks to immigration.
So the 9-11 billion global peak population just doesn't add up. While
it doesn't make sense to get Malthusian and project population will
grow indefinitely at current rates (1.3%, i.e. a doubling every 50
years to 24 billion by 2100), it's equally illogical and irresponsible
to suggest that the whole world will start immediately radically
reducing its fertility rate to achieve in just two generations the low
fertility rate that Europe took one hundred generations to reach. If
you assume that the levels of immigration now
projected by the US Census Bureau will prevail throughout the
developed
world, that first- and second-generation citizens of developed
countries will continue to have considerably larger-than-replacement
level families in their new adopted countries, that the prevailing
pro-fertility population dogmas of organized world religions will not
suddenly be changed, that population pressure in the third world will
be eased somewhat by immigration and that modest drops in family size
in those countries will be largely offset by longer life expectancy,
as
has been observably the case in almost every third world country
except
China, then instead of the 9-11 billion peak the UN is currently
talking about, you end up with population soaring past 14 billion in
2100, with no end in sight (left chart above).
The curved red line shows the carrying capacity of Earth, assuming a
modest annual increase in productivity from the current 30 billion
acres (productive-capacity adjusted), assuming average footprint per
capita continues to increase by a modest 1% per year, and assuming no
land on the planet is reserved for wilderness or natural space for the
rest of Earth's creatures. It shows in 2000 that the world could
sustain 5 billion humans at the then-prevailing level of consumption.
That's a billion humans less than actually inhabited the planet then,
possible only by depriving much of the world of a subsistence level of
resources, and by taking more from the Earth (in non-renewable
resources) than we replaced, essentially stealing the excess from
future generations. At the expected global level of per-capita
consumption in 2100 (still well below today's North American
consumption levels), carrying capacity drops to 2 billion humans. That
number is substantiated by a recent C
ornell
study that says the choice in 2100 is between 2 billion people living
a
comfortable but not lavish life (achieved by a drastic population
reduction) or 12 billion "struggling in misery". And if you want to
allow 50% of the planet's surface for other life forms, you need to
achieve double that reduction (green line), to one billion people, the
level both Jim
Merkel and Bill
McKibben think we should strive for. That's only achievable, short
of coercion, by an average one child family worldwide for the next century.
The right chart shows that the increasing average footprint, driven
both by North American excess and the surging resource use of China's
billion plus people, will drive the aggregate human footprint up even
more sharply than aggregate population, from 37 billion acres today
(20% more than Earth's carrying capacity) to 210 billion acres in 2100
(six times Earth's carrying capacity). Now remember, these assumptions
are much closer to the wildly
optimistic assumptions of population levelling that the UN and other
global agencies optimistically hope for, than to the Malthusian
no-change projections that would see nearly double these numbers.
Nevertheless, train wreck ahead.
We simply have no choice. We must immediately and aggressively reduce our family
sizes worldwide, and we must
immediately and aggressively reduce per-capita resource consumption,
waste and footprint. That means we must confront religions that don't
actively encourage birth control and small families, and show those
religions to
be socially irresponsible. That means, too, we need to introduce ecological
taxation
measures to make excessive resource consumption and waste
prohibitively
expensive, and reward those who tread lightly on the Earth.
