Turns garlic to liquid, parmesan to fluffy cheese snow, citrus rind to
orderly zest and ginger to mud. You’ll wonder how you lived
without it, unless of course you’re preoccupied with other,
larger matters.

Not ordinarily a fan of these agents of Scots wimp-rock, but strongly
endorse this recording from a May 2002 concert in which an audience
member named Rachel come onstage to make a go of the Pixies song: she
doesn’t remember the words (except for hey Paul hey Paul,
etc.), but manages to work in that she loves her boyfriend
Josh.

A very good (Mac OSX only) filesharing
application. Intuitively organised in an elegant Cocoa layout. Works
seamlessly with iTunes, and only fifteen bucks.
Potatoes
Starchy tuber
Highly flexible foodstuff. Can be baked, boiled, fried, mashed,

Clever device for safely taking the dog for a bicycle ride. Works,

A thousand miles from the scattershot manipulative bombast of some

and weave narrative both tragic and heroic. One of the most pleasing
films of recent memory. NB: no tits or shit blowing up.

04/11/2004 10:22 PMData interoperability with Microsoft Office-based applications is an
important part of real-world solutions. ADO.NET is the powerful,
flexible data access layer in the Microsoft .NET Framework that makes
data interoperability with any application easier and more extensible.
This article discusses how to create ADO.NET DataSet objects for use
with applications in the Microsoft Office System, thus creating the
vital link between Office solutions and ADO.NET.
Maybe women wouldn't want to get married
if they knew how time-consuming it was
Maybe women wouldn't want to get married
if they knew how time-consuming it was
03/17/2005 03:24 AMA 40ish friend he told me about life with his twentysomething
girlfriend:
- "I plan the dinner, shop for all the ingredients, choose and buy
the wine, cook and clean up."
- "We were staying at a friend's house. When it came time to
leave she was relaxing while I cleaned up and put the sheets and
towels in the washing machine."
- "We earn about the same amount of money and yet I pay for
everything."
- "She seems to think equality means doing less than
half the work so she won't ever have to feel mid-twentieth century
housewifelike."
At the same time we know a huge number of women who seem to be good
at everything except holding onto a guy long enough to get married,
something that they claim to want. Could it be the case that in
the old days mothers sat their daughters down and explained to them
how selfish and spoiled most men are and what they needed to do to
keep the guy happy? Whereas now young women are exposed to
wisdom from Jada Pinkett Smith, a popular actress:
“Women, you can have it all—a loving man, devoted husband, loving
children, a fabulous career,” she said. “They say you gotta choose.
Nah, nah, nah. We are a new generation of women. We got to set a new
standard of rules around here. You can do whatever it is you want. All
you have to do is want it.” (speaking at Harvard, a talk that got her into
hot water for being too "heteronormative")
The implication of Pinkett Smith's remarks was that a Harvard
girl, in virtue of being bright, well-educated, and ambitious, was
entitled to these things without doing too much work except
maybe on the career part. She never added "if you're
willing to do the laundry, plan and pay for half the evenings out,
straighten up the house in between visits from the cleaners."
Some of our women friends do seem to have figured out what
compromises and efforts are entailed but they suffer through many
inexplicable (to them) dumpings and are into their late 30s by the
time insight is acquired. This wouldn't be a problem except that
by this age they are past their best reproductive years and are often
rather embittered toward men.
A potential solution:Find couples where the man is satisfied and
not thinking about walking out. Do time-and-motion studies of
the female partner in these couples and figure out how much effort
they are putting forth. Report the results so that single women
can decide if it is worth the bother. Perhaps when they see the
data they will come to agree with Isabel Archer in Portrait of a Lady, who,
when all around her were trying to marry her off, thought
"she held that a woman ought to be able to make up her life in
singleness, and that it was perfectly possible to be happy without the
society of a more or less coarse-minded person of another
sex."
[Update: Some (married) friends pointed out that
there are quite a few books targeted at women who want to get married,
offering advice. However this advice is anecdotal and not based
on hard numbers gleaned from surveys. A friend in her 40s
pointed out that perhaps by coddling our kids we've produced an entire
generation too selfish to make a marriage succeed. This afflicts
both young men and women equally with the difference that men have the
biological luxury to wait until they are 40 or 50 to figure it
out.]

Voting for George W. Bush is like

12/17/2004 06:36 PMIn Oaxaca, as in most of the places that I've visited in and out of
the U.S., it was nearly impossible to find someone who admits to
favoring George W. Bush. Yet the guy won 51% of the popular
vote. Even here in Massachusetts fully 37 percent of voters
supposedly chose Bush. Perhaps voting for Bush is like being a
consumer of online porn. Statistics show that it is popular but
nobody will admit to doing it.

XML Keeps Programmers Regular
XML Keeps Programmers Regular
03/19/2003 10:24 PM...using regular expressions, that is. In response to
Tim
Bray's dirty little habit of parsing XML with regular expressions,
Jon Udell
writes:
If the XML gods are resorting to Perl and Python hackery to shred
documents, are we just spinning our wheels? I don't think so. But this
is, perhaps, an unusual case.
...
I can, however, make excellent use of the text stream underlying XML
abstractions. So, which way to regard a document becomes a kind of
Necker cube puzzle. The bad news: it's confusing. The good news: it's
useful.
When the suggestion of XMLizing Blosxom templates came up a week or so
ago, I (calmly) dared the proponent to install any number of Perl XML
modules under Mac OS X. After all this time, it's still horrid stuff.
And then there are those who, at the mercy of their ISPs, don't even
have the choice of installing an XML parser.
That said, XML parsing has become a regular part of the modern
programmer's nutritious breakfast. There're mouthfuls of RSS to
consume, the Google Web API to Google, and the breadth and depth of
the Amazon to explore. What's a happy parser-less hacker to do?
I just co-authored a
book, 1/4 of which relied heavily on the availability of not
only an XML parser, but a SOAP stack. Faced with the reality that
more than a handful of readers wouldn't have either at their disposal,
I wrote a hack sure to turn the stomach of any XML purist while
turning many a hacker frown upside-down...
"NoXML, Another SOAP::Lite
Alternative" for the Google Web API.
XML jockeys might well want to avert their eyes for this one. What is
herein suggested is something just so preposterous that it just might
prove useful -- and indeed it does. NoXML is a drop-in alternative to
SOAP::Lite. As its name suggests, this home-brewed module doesn't make
use of an XML parser of any kind, relying instead on some dead-simple
regular expressions and other bits of programmatic magic.
Elegant? Depends on your definition. Pure? As the driven beach
sand. Work? You betcha!

Sony's DRC-MFv2 Upscales Regular TV to

Sony's DRC-MFv2 Upscales Regular TV to
HD
08/12/2004 07:44 AM
Today
brings another interesting announcement from Sony, in the form of new
video processing technology called "DRC-MFv2" (Digital Reality
Creation: Multi-
Function V2). It can scale up conventional TV signals to full
High-Definition - 1920 x 1080 pixels (you might know it as 1080i).
Explaining just how the technology works would be difficult, because
basically we are idiots, but the long and short of it revolves around
interpolation of the
standard TV signal using the correlation of the relationship
between... other words that end with "ation." I'll leave it to the
well-paid Sony
translators to go into the technical end of things for you once the
English press release comes out. It works somehow, let's leave it at
that until we can determine how well.
But hey, anything that makes TV look better will be nice. Other
advantages of the technology include the ability to convert all other
HDTV signals (480 and 720) to 1080i, as well as zoom functions. Look
forward to seeing these new chips in Wega TVs and "other external
devices" this year.
