What McNamara Learned from Viet Nam


What McNamara Learned from Viet Nam 01/26/2004 03:00 PM
History may not repeat itself, but it does rhyme a lot. -- Mark Twain As much as it might have served my rhetorical purposes, I have been reluctant to draw parallels between our involvements in Viet Nam and Iraq. Most such comparisons seem invidious and over-wrought. Still, in a compelling January 24 column in the Toronto Globe and Mail, Doug Saunders cites a list of lessons that Robert McNamara said (in his 1995 book Retrospect) he had gleaned from his soul-searching autopsy of the American defeat in Viet Nam. I repeat them here for the purposes of discussion. Based on the course of the Iraqi invasion thus far, some of them seem chillingly familiar. The question arises, if we are repeating some or all of the same errors, how can we proceed from this point to a more positive result than we obtained in Southeast Asia. McNamara's List: We misjudged then -- and we have since -- the geopolitical intentions of our adversaries . . . and we exaggerated the dangers to the United States of their actions. We viewed the people and leaders of South Vietnam in terms of our own experience. . . . We totally misjudged the political forces within the country. We underestimated the power of nationalism to motivate a people to fight and die for their beliefs and values. Our judgments of friend and foe alike reflected our profound ignorance of the history, culture, and politics of the people in the area, and the personalities and habits of their leaders. We failed then -- and have since -- to recognize the limitations of modern, high-technology military equipment, forces and doctrine. . . . We failed as well to adapt our military tactics to the task of winning the hearts and minds of people from a totally different culture. We failed to draw Congress and the American people into a full and frank discussion and debate of the pros and cons of a large-scale military involvement . . . before we initiated the action. After the action got under way and unanticipated events forced us off our planned course . . . we did not fully explain what was happening and why we were doing what we did. We did not recognize that neither our people nor our leaders are omniscient. Our judgment of what is in another people's or country's best interest should be put to the test of open discussion in international forums. We do not have the God-given right to shape every nation in our image or as we choose. We did not hold to the principle that U.S. military action . . . should be carried out only in conjunction with multinational forces supported fully (and not merely cosmetically) by the international community. We failed to recognize that in international affairs, as in other aspects of life, there may be problems for which there are no immediate solutions. . . . At times, we may have to live with an imperfect, untidy world. Underlying many of these errors lay our failure to organize the top echelons of the executive branch to deal effectively with the extraordinarily complex range of political and military issues. By the way, Saunders says that, in a phone conversation with McNamara, the latter rendered the following opinion of the Iraqi invasion, "We're misusing our influence. It's just wrong what we're doing. It's morally wrong, it's politically wrong, it's economically wrong." If that is so, what do we do now?...

How I Learned French in One Year


How I Learned French in One Year 12/30/2004 02:30 PM
Riding on the coat-tails of an earlier article about emigrating to other countries, I present to you a small summary of my experience rapidly learning French to pass a standardized test for Canadian immigration. Since I live in the middle of the US, far removed from anything resembling a Francophone environment, I had to resort to various online and offline resources to accomplish my goal, managing to learn enough to score as "advanced" in several categories in just 10 months. Even if you don't wish to emigrate, this article may be useful, as I go into full detail describing the techniques and methods I used. Or, at the very least, read and be amused.

A Hard Lesson Learned


A Hard Lesson Learned 03/14/2005 04:35 PM

Well the nightmare that all of us geeks feared the most, happened this morning. I walked into my office and found that it had been broken into. The computers were all taken and the printers, copier and some accessories were also stolen. I had backups of the important files, but a lot of small things are missing, settings, ftp accounts, and the most important thing of all, my privacy.

It will be a couple days before the insurance settles the claim and we can replace the hardware and software, but my worry is that I had passwords and account information available for any trained hacker to find. Sure I had the passwords and I did not save key rings in browsers, but the fact is, it can be found out. I learned a hard lesson. I will be encrypting my hard drive from this time forward. My data will be secure, I will have a call home program installed in case the thieves fire up the system and try to get online.

I would like to here from the geeks out there as to what measures I need to take to make sure that my information is as safe as I can keep it. Let's hear your feedback. I'll be back with more news as soon as I get my computers back at the office.

There are lessons to be learned from the first round of online journals, hammered out over time in the private spheres of close friends and associates. Many from that time have moved on to other things, but their legacy remains at the core of blogging's foundations. Write for an audience of friends. When you have an audience of a million people, there's no way to anticipate what the best viewpoint to reach them all is; remember that your writing is an expression of your viewpoint, and express it as such. Express your viewpoint as if you were talking to a group of friends: clear, to the point, and perhaps a dash of humor. Aesthetics speak a thousand words. The appearance of a site frames the content contained within, setting the tone for the reader. If your color schemes makes it...

Things that I learned about driving in
Japan


Things that I learned about driving in
Japan
08/20/2004 10:11 AM

Just as Japanese society is more intricate, if less varied, than U.S. society, the topography of settled Japan is more intricate than the U.S.  Where we would say "this area is too broken up by mountains and inlets so we'll build towns elsewhere" the Japanese don't have that option.  The result is an amazing number of bridges and tunnels.  I have driven through more tunnels in three weeks and 4000 km. here than in my previous 24 years of driving cars.  If you're a fan of civil engineer you'll giggle with childlike wonder every 20 miles or so as you come across a new suspension bridge, elevated road, or new tunnel.

Being illiterate is a serious impediment to navigation when you know where you want to go and robs you of the opportunity to decide whether or not a previously unknown roadside attraction is worth the stop.  Even with limited Japanese, however, asking directions is very effective.  One hundred percent of the time the person whom I stopped either knew where the place was or was able to figure it out after consulting a map.  Not once was I given bad directions.  Twenty five percent of the time the person asked would take a detour and lead me to the destination.  Twenty five percent of the time the person asked would produce a map or atlas, mark it up and give it to me (scored a complete 100-page detailed street atlas for the island of Hokkaido in this manner--sadly all in Kanji except for a few route numbers but subsequently very useful).

Gas costs 2X as much as in the U.S. but the rental car is nearly 2X as efficient as my minivan so the cost of a fill-up is about the same.  The price in Japan includes two attendants who pump the gas, clean the windows, walk into the street to stop traffic as you're leaving, and bow from the waist as you drive away.

Japan essentially has no highways.  This is one of the world's most densely populated countries with  approximately 335 people per square kilometer, about the same as Israel, and more than India's 320 per square km.  For an American, coming from a country with 31 people per square kilometer, it is hard to understand how these folks get by with a network of 2-lane roads and a couple of arterial 4-lane expressways.  Even when a local highway goes through a town that is mile after mile of fast food, supermarkets, Vegas-sized pachinko parlors, etc. it won't get widened beyond 1 lane in each direction.  This plus the heavy traffic results in ridiculously low average speeds, much lower than the 40, 50, and 60 kilometer per hour limits that prevail on most roads.

Such roads as the Japanese have are the apotheosis of that type of road.  It might be a shoulderless 2-lane road but it is the best damn shoulderless 2-lane road in the world.  Despite winter freezes you will never drive over a pothole.  Overhanging poles with arrows point to the edge of the travel lane so that the snowplows can be exact.  Solar panels in those poles charge up batteries all day so that they can flash with LEDs at night, reminding drivers of where the curves lead so that you don't have to watch the white lines in your headlights as carefully.  Every curve is signalled with strange white patterns painted on the pavement as you approach the curve.  If a curve is sharp there will be a sign telling you exactly how sharp, e.g., "R=100m".  If a brief section goes uphill you will be told exactly how steep, e.g., "grade=3.6%".

Given the excellence of the roads, the heavy traffic, and the low speeds one can't help wondering how the Japanese became the world's best engineers and builders of high-performance cars?  A 1935 Hudson Terraplane would be more than adequate for getting around Japan.  Even in Hokkaido there would be no way to stretch the legs of a Mazda RX-8 or Honda/Acura NSX.

Drivers here are highly skilled but not especially observant of the official rules.  The speed limit on the mostly empty toll expressways is 80 kph but plenty of folks go 120 or faster.  People try not to be the third car through a red light.  Parking is simple.  You stop the car wherever you feel like, turn on the hazard lights, and walk away.

And the last thing that I learned about driving in Japan... When the policeman waves you over to the side of the road and says "Speedo" he is not interested in seeing you change into your latest European-style swimwear.

Random PHP Trivia or How I Learned to Love the . Operator I'm starting to really gear up for my PHPCON presentation on PHP Subtleties -- you know the little things you ought to know but don't. How many times in PHP have you done something like this: echo "$x"; Now while it is slightly more difficult to write this: echo $x . ""; But the net benefit of this is roughly a 50% speed up. Disclaimer: Very, very, very crude benchmarking here using simple microtime() and a calculator. Now you might think that this would give a greater speedup since I'm using single quotes now, not double quotes: echo $x . ''; But the improvement is actually miniscule at best. Maybe 1%. And that, Gentle Reader, is how I learned to love the . operator. Note: The . operator is string append so the conclusion of this little piece is that string appending is substantially faster than string interpretation (when you have "$x

I've been looking for the ideal Bluetooth mouse almost as long as I've had my PowerBook G4. Unfortunately this isn't it. I chose the Belkin bluetooth mouse for its price and number of buttons, and because Microsoft's Bluetooth IntelliMouse isn't compatible with Macs.

The Belkin mouse is fairly large, but is very comfortable to use if you're right-handed. If you have a computer with Bluetooth built in, you won't need to use any adapter with it, which makes it more convenient than regular cordless mice.
