Conspiracy?







Conspiracy?

Conspiracy? 01/16/2004 11:01 AM

On the subject of NetNewsWire requiring that Atom feeds be well-formed XML, Mark Pilgrim wrote:

A member of the RSS advisory board -- a group whose charter explicitly states that you "advocate for RSS" -- has announced that he will use his product's dominant market position to punish his own paying customers by applying a double standard that makes Atom appear less useful than RSS.

I'm not usually given to conspiracy theories, but Jesus H. Christ, are you f$@#ing kidding me?


Good question.

I’m not trying to cut down on Atom’s chance of being popular. On the contrary—what I haven’t expressed is that I’m excited by the chance to do this right, to not have the ugly workarounds in my code that exist just to parse that minority of bad RSS feeds.

I certainly didn’t discuss my decision with other members of the RSS board.

If Atom’s popularity is dependent on whether parsers are liberal or not, then that’s a problem with Atom, or Atom feed generators, not the parsers. I don’t think that this is the case: I think Atom will be popular whether parsers are strict or liberal. And I think NetNewsWire will help Atom become popular.

What I’d like to see is a commitment to well-formed XML on the part of everybody that has anything to do with Atom. Atom has the chance to set a high standard, not just as a good spec but as good-in-practice. I bet Mark agrees with me on this.

I'm about to hit the sack, but current indications are that Bush has won Ohio by a couple of percentage points and thus has been re-elected as President of the United States.

Ohio. Isn't that the state that Diebold president Walden O'Dell promised to deliver to the Republicans?

I don't know if Ohio voters used Diebold machines. If they did, I'm certainly not about to say that the machines were fixed in any way. But the problem with voting machines without a paper trail is that there's no way anyone can be absolutely certain that the election wasn't stolen. In a modern democracy, that just ain't healthy.

Lompoc Sees Teleco Conspiracy


Lompoc Sees Teleco Conspiracy 06/17/2005 03:19 PM
The city of Lompoc, Calif., thinks Comcast is in cahoots with a taxpayers' group: Lompoc is putting in Wi-Fi first and fiber next for municipally offered broadband and cable. Comcast would suffer, and the city believes they were behind a letter from the Santa Barbara County Taxpayers Associates (SBCTA) to Lompoc residents. Comcast joined SBCTA after the letter went out. The letter cites two municipal projects as failures that other, more recent and complete information from the Free Press and other sources indicates is a mischaracterization. (The cities are Marietta, Georgia, and Lebanon, Ohio. Marietta has been cited many times because it was sold to a private company "at a loss." The "loss" was a misrepresentation of the cost and finances of the project, the mayor ran on a ticket of selling the network, and the private company that purchased retained existing staff and infrastructure with few changes.) Comcast denies involvement, such as providing Comcast subscriber names and addresses to the SBCTA. Neither the SBCTA nor Comcast is eager to divulge information about specific involvement and financing....

I'm a longtime fan of Mack White's comics. He did a regular strip for the print edition of bOING bOING called Jokey, which used a secret language. Mack recently let me know about his terrific blog, which is loaded with weird conspiracy stuff (including a link to an article that looks into Gen. Wesley Clark's involvement in the Waco massacre). Here's a one page comic Mack did for The Comics Journal about the Kennedy assasination, and how the reason behind it is similar to the current war in Iraq. Link
