Leaving Las Vegas, and Glad of It
01/16/2004 01:00 PMLas Vegas municipal officials should realize that by tonight, tens of
thousands of people from all over the world have told family and
friends about the ridiculously inept airport operation at one of the
world's most popular tourism destinations. This is going to translate
into dollars, as in lost dollars.

Leaving...
02/10/2004 02:51 AMI was going to write "hitting the road now, see you on the other
side," but I realized that I'm going to be flying, not hitting the
road, and I'll probably see you a few times along the way. Leaving on
a trip is really not an important event anymore except that the
likelihood that something bad is going to happen to you increases for
a period of time.
Anyway, for those of you who are going to ETech, see you you
face to face soon.

Leaving Pompignan II
Leaving Pompignan II
07/28/2004 12:51 PM So yeah, we moved.
Everyone says it’s stressful to move, up there with divorce and
sudden unemployment, but christ on a bike it takes a lot out of you.
Never mind the backache and barked knuckles: you’re left without
a soul.
We’re now about an hour and a half east of Pompignan, in the
Rhône Valley, hugged up next to the vaguely shitty
Bagnols-sur-Cèze. Actually strike that – it’s only
shitty if all you see of it is the shopping malls and supermarkets and
their parking lots while you rush around for food and drink between
time spent figuring where to put all the god damn stuff that was
schlepped over from the old place. The town has a heart, we found out
this morning: each Wednesday every street and sidestreet is filled
with market stalls, patrolled by women pushing baby strollers, cops in
funny pillbox hats, and Dutch tourists. Olives, baby: buckets of
them.
The new house is nice. There is interesting plaster moulding. All
doorways are higher than my forehead. The dogs have a yard to destroy.
Here are some
pictures.

03/06/2004 02:03 AMRannva dropped this URL on an older blog entry, so I figured I should
pop it up to a larger readership, since it's just too cool:
Orion's
Arm Worldbuilding Group.
A huge collection of Creative Commons -licensed
alternative world history (and future) that should make the soul of
every hardcore sci-fi fan tickle. I only took a quick glance through
it, but already I started getting ideas...
I think this is another good example on how uncoordinated efforts of
dedicated amateurs can produce things that rival commercial
alternatives. I don't think it replaces them, though, but it
can be a good choice among many. The Internet has really allowed a
whole new kind of collaboration efforts to take place, things that
were rather difficult to do before. Essentially the Internet is now
doing the job of the scientific journals, and it is not surprising
that many of the academic papers are being published on the Internet
first these days...
The Relief of Leaving a Job
The Relief of Leaving a Job
03/14/2005 05:01 PMI've noticed a funny thing in the last year or so. The vast majority
of the time someone I know leaves a job (or is fired) two trends seem
to recur: A sense of relief: "I'm so glad I'm not at that place
anymore." A complete loss of "spare" time: "I'm busier now than when I
was working full-time!" Maybe everyone should change jobs once or
twice a decade? Maybe people should ask themselves a bit more often
one question:...

06/29/2004 05:12 PM As it appears we’re about to move to a town with DSL
capabilities, it would be good to hear from anyone with strong opinion
on Wanadoo vs Freebox vs Tiscali vs Noos and so on,
haut-débit-wise.
I’d rather not give more money than absolutely necessary to
the bloated France Telecom, and the dinks at Tiscali haven’t
exactly curried a lot of favour, but if the big-pipes 2048k offers
they’re flinging about actually work, then so be it.
A bell is a cup, until it is struck.

Frasier Is Leaving the Building
Frasier Is Leaving the Building
05/13/2004 09:30 PMThe writers and cast of "Frasier" earned their huge
following by treating the audience with respect. They combined
sophisticated comedy with slapstick, joy with angst, and never lost
their warm view of humanity.
Even the occasional low points were better than most of the
"entertainment" that pollutes today's heartless, brainless TV
wasteland. The highs were sublime. It's been fun.

Reflections on leaving Panama
Reflections on leaving Panama
02/10/2004 02:44 AMLooking out the windows of the Boeing 757 taking me away from
Panama it remains hard to believe that the railroad (1850-55) and then
the canal were built. They had no aircraft and therefore could
not perform aerial surveys of a roadless unknown country. They
had no insect repellant in a place swarming with mosquitoes, sand
flies, and other sources of nasty bites (so perhaps it was for the
best that, until the Americans came along, nobody believed that
mosquitoes caused malaria and yellow fever). The development of
this country is a remarkable tribute to the triumph of energy over
natural caution.
Most of that energy came from the American West. The
California gold rush of 1849 provided the impetus for the construction
of the railroad and most of its initial revenue. When the French
effort failed two citizens of Medora, North Dakota played key
roles. The best-known is
that of one-time rancher Theodore
Roosevelt. As president of the United States in 1903 it was
Roosevelt who encouraged Panamanians to secede from Columbia and
subsequently approved taking over the French concession in the
isthmus. Canal historian David McCullough in Br
ave Companions writes about another Medoran in his book Brave
Companions.
Antoine Amedee-Marie-Vincent Manca de Vallombrosa, the Marquis de
Mores, was a French aristocrat married to the daughter of a wealthy
Wall Street banker. Of North Dakota the Marquis wrote "I like
this country for there is room to move about without stepping on the
feet of others." He invested much of his wealth in the North
Dakota badlands, in a local slaughterhouse, and in refrigerated rail
cars to deliver beef to markets in the East, in competition with the
Chicago stockyards. Roosevelt was frequently a guest in the
Marquis's house in Medora until a cruel winter drove them and their
herds out. The Marquis blamed the failure of his enterprise on "the
Jewish beef trust" and, upon returning to France, satisfied the French
public's demand to know what had gone wrong with their sea level canal
with the explanation that the Jews were to blame. The Marquis
successfully stirred many thousands of his countrymen to anti-Jewish
riots regarding the canal and subsequently played an important role in
the Dreyfus Affair. He was less successful outside France.
According to McCullough, the Marquis was "murdered in June 1896 by a
band of Tuareg tribesmen in North Africa", where he had been engaged
in an effort to "united the Muslims under the French flag in an
all-out holy war against the Jews and the English."
Are Spammers Leaving The Business?
Are Spammers Leaving The Business?
05/06/2004 02:53 AMIt appears that the combination of technology solutions and legal
crackdowns on spammers may be having some effect on a few of the
weaker willed spammers. USA Today is reporting that
some spammers are finding other lines of work. I'd
be more encouraged if there were a corresponding decrease in the
amount of spam - but most studies seem to show that it's increasing
(and my own personal stats support this). One interesting note is
that some spammers say they plan on becoming "reformed" spammers who
try to come up with better anti-spam solutions. Can you trust a
spammer to help stop spam? I'm not so sure.

Frankel stuck around at AOL for another six months or so before
finally announcing that, this time, he's
really leaving the company. AOL is probably thrilled. Still, it
should be interesting to see what he comes up with next, which won't
need to be taken offline by AOL within 24 hours of him releasing it.
I'm still a bit surprised he lasted this long.
