Kyoto is Dead - Long Live Pragmatism

Kyoto is Dead - Long Live Pragmatism 09/19/2004 09:43 AM
There's troubling news (FT subscription reqd, alternate copy here) coming from Japan, where the Kyoto protocol on Greenhouse Emissions was born in 1997. It seems that the Japanese aren't going to be able to meet their emissions targets specified in the agreement in time. Indeed, unless they buy a "large quantity" of emissions credits from other countries, they're not going to be able to meet their commitment at all. Taishi Sugiyama, a climate expert at the Central Research Institute of Electric Power Industry in Japan, said emissions were rising 1 per cent a year due to a larger-than-expected impact from vehicles and households. That made it impossible to cut real domestic emissions by the required 16 per cent within a few years, he said. Is this the last nail in the coffin for the Kyoto protocol? And if so, which way do we go when it's buried? Was GWB right to pull out, and where would John Kerry take us, in either case?

Microsoft's decision to return $32 billion to its shareholders may be a wise business move, but it is also an admission of defeat. With its announcement this week that it will pay a special one-time dividend of $3 a share, the company is confessing that despite years of trying, it has not found an attractive way to invest its cash reserves. After decades of spectacular growth, the world's most famous software company seems resigned to a more sedate middle age.

The anti-Kerry book Unfit for Command is #1 on Amazon. Unfortunately, the book, not even released, has entered the downward spiral of diminished credibility of its authors. The "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth" have been found to include a man who changed his story right after Kerry entered the race and another who flat-out retracts his accusations. Meanwhile, another SBVfT member has accused Kerry of not really deserving his Bronze Star because the events leading to it never occured... even though the Veteran recieved a Bronze Star for the same day's events he claims now never happened.

The Long Way 01/05/2005 09:10 AM
Ellen Macarthur is trying to break the solo round-the-world sailing record. From her website you can see stills and videos while she’s enroute, and track her progress. Meanwhile, the Vendee Globe is underway, with 20 sailors racing a similar course – also nonstop, and with no outside assistance allowed. The first solo nonstop circumnavigation was only 35 years ago, and the record has gone from 313 days to 72. It’s the slow way around, to be sure, and that’s probably why only a few dozen people have done it.

Longhorn - a long way off

Longhorn - a long way off 08/13/2004 03:51 PM
Notable Windows journalist, Paul Thurrott, has been on the Microsoft Campus this week.

"...based on some unrelated bits of information I gleaned this week, I'm now convinced that Longhorn, the next major Windows release, will be delayed beyond even the dates that speculators have been throwing around. This news raises the specter, once again, of a possible Windows XP Second Edition release as a buffer between XP and Longhorn. Don't scoff. Contrary to official denials, Microsoft has indeed investigated an interim XP release and is now looking into it again."

Truth be told, what Paul is saying is not that unbelievable. Microsoft took a lot of techies off the Longhorn program, and put them onto Service Pack 2 for Windows XP development; they wanted a good SP to ship which was going to set them (and Windows XP) in good stead for the next few years. However, at the cost of building a bit more redunancy into the Windows life cycle, they pushed back further the Longhorn release - as little as 6 months, easily as long as a year.

A SE edition of XP isn't that hard to concieve. Microsoft have done it before (Windows ME - halfway house between 98 and 2000), and wouldn't be afraid to do it again. One could see Microsoft for example putting in various features that are completed - e.g. aim to implement WinFS - and ship this as interim build; they'd have to work hard however to turn it into more than just a pay-for service pack.

The company makes a fair amount of its revenue from the Windows product line - they need to keep selling copies to keep the business as profitable as it is. An intermediary release would be a solution to a distant next edition of Windows, and would also act as a indicator of just that- a Longhorn release as far away perhaps as 2010.

Long Distance Wi-Fi

Long Distance Wi-Fi 08/09/2004 10:16 PM

Teens' wireless feat could be world record: Quite a feat took place at DefCon.

In the end, their 55-mile amplified connection exceeded last year's winner by 20 miles. Then they turned off their amplifiers and broke the record for an unamplified connection at the same distance.

While not yet confirmed, the connection appears to be a world record for a ground connection. The Guinness record for Wi-Fi connection is about 192 miles, achieved in 2002 by Swedish Wi-Fi equipment maker Alvarion and the Swedish Space. But that record was achieved using a Swedish weather balloon, which some experts say isn't comparable to a ground measurement because there are fewer obstacles to block a signal.

The Swedish team also used amplification in setting the mark, while the DefCon team maintained its connection even after turning off the amplification.
