Picking a horse for this big race

Picking a horse for this big race 01/27/2004 04:45 AM

I've spent the past couple months reviewing all the presidental candidates, looking for the one with the right combination of passion, hope, and a plan for our future. I've taken a long look at Dean, Clark, and Edwards, but they don't quite hit the mark for me personally.

After months of research, reading their issue statements online, and watching a good deal of CSPAN, I've finally come up with my pick for the next president of the United States in 2004:

Ronnie James Dio

There are dozens of good reasons, but to sum up: Dio's tough on the issues, isn't afraid to speak his mind, still knows how to rock after all these years, can shake the "angry guy" image pretty easily, and overall I think the next four years will kick so much ass with Dio in charge that he's my pick in '04.

I urge New Hampshire voters that might still be on the fence to think about Dio, if not for me, not for yourself, but for America. Go Dio Go!!!

The Unix Horse Race

The Unix Horse Race 06/17/2005 04:38 PM

The big OpenSolaris launch is today; there’s a huge crowd of bloggers giving you the deep technical poop, so I’ll stick to sports metaphors. I don’t know what the word “Unix” means legally, but if it’s got a real fork(), it’s Unix to me; that includes GNU/Linux and the BSDs and Solaris. Which is to say, they’re more alike than they are different, and they’re all pretty good. Nobody cares much about the history now; it’s about fast, reliable, and cheap, and that’s as it should be. If you look at the core engineering teams for Linux and Solaris, neither of them is dramatically bigger than the other, so I think the race is pretty fair. My personal take? At the moment Solaris is ahead in scaling and observability and production management. The good Linux distros are ahead in installing and packaging (“In the Beginning there was nothing. So God said apt-get install light”) and user interface. Is there a downside? The BSDs might get crowded out in all the excitement, and that would be sad. Aside from that, it’s gonna be fun to watch. And the people who are lined up to bet are waving real money, lots of it.

Well, well. It seems that we are joining the bunch of girly horse blogs :). Second lesson today. Went "Around the world" - essentially turning 360 degrees in the saddle, did trot without stirrups (scary at first), and nearly fell off a couple of times, while trying to grab by left foot with my right hand. Heh. Fun exercises, even though I think I sprained something.

It feels good to be learning something new again (plenty of new words at least :). And the horses are actually quite cute - though I'm pretty sure I'd be scared shitless if they were angry at me. 500 kilos of angry meat is dangerous - herbivore or no herbivore. But perhaps I'll learn to "talk horse" some day.

A Fable: The Migrating Chickadee

A Fable: The Migrating Chickadee 03/14/2005 06:21 PM

The idea: A fable about uncertainty, and courage. For thousands of years the chickadee community of Albion had weathered the cold winters as all non-migrating birds in temperate climates do: They hid food (often tens of thousands of tree seeds each) in the fall. They moulted new heavier plumage just before winter. They scavenged nutrition from pine cones, maple sap, and even the dead prey of coyotes, which they'd learned to imitate to alert their community to the presence of fresh carcasses. They maintained a generous 'grazing' area for the flock, which normally included a dozen chickadees, plus a few nuthatches and titmice. And they hibernated at night, burning just enough fat to maintain their body temperature above the hypothermia level, so they could reawaken themselves the next day without depending on solar warmth. But then one day some loud machines arrived in Albion and bulldozed down many of the trees the chickadees and their community-mates depended upon. Fortunately one old human put up a set of feeders in one of the clearcut areas, and another planted sunflowers in another clearcut area. So there was still an abundance to live on. But one of the chickadees was worried what would happen if the human destruction continued. That fall, she looked longingly at the flocks of other birds. Calling to the other birds in her community, and bidding them to follow, she rose up to join a flock of migrating geese. They briefly responded, thinking perhaps the agitated little chickadee was alerting them to a fresh source of food. But when they saw she was flying beyond the limits of their community, they broke ranks and returned. Deserted by her community, the would-be migratory chickadee turned around and rejoined her flock. The following year, the humans destroyed more of the natural bounty of Albion, and where there had been sunflowers growing there was now a huge building filled with frightening sounds and a terrible smell. That year snow came early and for the first time, the chickadees knew they would have to depend on the old human's feeders. Once again, the agitated chickadee urged the others to join her in migrating to a new and more natural home, but the other chickadees ignored it. Chickadees don't migrate -- they bulk up and, when necessary, hibernate. This was the only life they knew. Except this time, the worried little chickadee didn't turn back. She flew higher and higher, lagging behind the other creatures in their graceful formations all headed to a more hospitable home for the winter. She headed in the same direction, determined to follow them, until she disappeared from view. The following spring the kind human stopped coming out each day to fill the feeders, and yet more of the trees were cut down and its natural vegetation replaced by the humans' hard and barren constructions. But the migrating chickadee didn't return, so the others didn't know if she'd found a better home, a kinder and more natural place, or not. The alpha chickadees told the others that they would just have to make the best of a difficult situation. But the rest of the chickadees were not happy. Maybe the migrating chickadee was right, maybe she had found a new home untouched by these terrifying humans and their machines of destruction and scarcity. But chickadees weren't meant to migrate, they weren't built for it. Yet they noticed other small birds and even butterflies migrating -- perhaps this was the natural way, perhaps chickadees had merely forgotten how to migrate. When the fall came, some of the chickadees practiced migrating, and they watched the other birds intently. And as the first snow began, one of the remaining chickadees called to the others, using the alarming call of the coyote: It's now or never. We cannot continue on like this, or we will all die. And the other chickadees, all of them agitated now, called back: How do you know? Maybe it will get better again. This is our home -- we cannot leave. But their debate was drowned out by the roar of the bulldozers, making room for yet more of the humans' strange and unnatural buildings with their deceptive and dangerous invisible walls, and more of the humans' loud and frightening creations with the four rolling feet and the two eyes bright as suns. And all of Albion was filled with dust and tar and screaming. Item: House sparrows have virtually vanished from London; declared endangered species.

Lost in the visuals, seduced by the story, the American people don't care about the "tough" reporting we've done. Such was the sense of bafflement in the Washington press corps-- then. Some of the ideas that produced it are still floating around today.

The author clarifies that the build he installs and discusses is a beta version, so keep that in mind. Either way, the write up is detailed and outlines a lot of the new features and interface changes, with lots of screenshots to provide the eye candy. One thing is clear about the new version of Windows Mobile—there's a serious gradient fetish going on.
