06/03/2004 10:47 AMRadar technology certainly isn't new, but that doesn't mean there
aren't improvements. CSMonitor has a brief overview of
some new
developments in radar technology, and how they'll be used in both
military and civilian applications. There's one whole section on how
automakers see radar as "the next big thing in safety," discussing
pre-collision warning systems, blindspot watchers and adaptive cruise
control.

NPR: Celebrating 20 years of the Mac
01/22/2004 02:13 AMIt's been two decades since the Macintosh first burst on the scene
with the famous Ridley Scott-directed advertisement during the 1984
SuperBowl. The Mac's 20th anniversary seems poised to set the tone for
Apple's product plans in 2004, if some of Steve Jobs' comments during
his keynote address at Macworld Conference & Expo earlier this
month are any indication. Now it's the subject of a recent "
Talk of
the Nation" program on National Public Radio (NPR), which you can
listen to online -- if you have Windows Media Player installed.

July. The word "patriot" is too precious to allow it to be used
by the thundering rhetoric of politicians that patriotism requires not
only "supporting the troops" but also supporting the foreign policy
that puts them at risk.NY Times: Recording of John F. Kennedy reading Declaration of

Grokster decision
Music labels should be celebrating the
Grokster decision
08/23/2004 06:36 AMCory Doctorow: Jim Griffin, founder of the Pho
music/tech mailing list, weighs in with an impressive and passionate
email about the P2P-legalizing Grokster decision and what it means for
music labels.
Here's why you should applaud today's decision: It brings us closer to
monetizing peered sharing and putting real money in the pockets of
artists, labels, publishers, and other rights holders. How? Because it
moves them one step closer to the correct judgment, which is that it
is now impractical and inefficient to control the quantity and destiny
of digits -- especially so those that carry mass media like music --
in the increasingly friction-free world of digitization. When that
judgment is drawn, service licensing begins. Until that judgment is
drawn, product-based control continues in vain. Publishers long ago
accepted technology and license it today -- they licensed Napster --
and their revenues are climbing; sound recording companies continue to
resist every new technology and refuse to license, and their revenues
are falling. This decision will benefit the music business the same
way getting arrested for drunk driving benefits an alcoholic,
summoning forth the day of reckoning and hastening rehabilitation.
This judgment doesn't destroy distribution -- it enables licensing.
How? It reminds one of the parties in the licensing battle that one of
the vines it was relying upon to to cling to the past will no longer
be viable. Hyper-efficient delivery destroys distribution, meaning
that the just-in-time delivery of digits will eventually destroy their
distribution entirely. That is a ways off, but from what I'm hearing
back-channel it is not too far off, as Apple prepares its tiny
wireless iPod with no hard-drive but enhanced Wi-Max
(metropolitan-wide high-bandwidth wireless) connectivity; it won't
destroy downloading over night, but it will take a whack at its market
share, and slowly but surely shift the market away from
distribution/downloading and towards delivery/streaming.

10/29/2003 01:15 AMI tried and tried, but I just couldn't resist linking to this parody:
"Confirming their intent to battle Google's new Blogger
service, MT then announced on its TypePad site that the it would be
rendering all of its users' posts in image format- meaning that any
blog hosted by the TypePad service would be immune to Google's awesome
searching reach, because the blog entries would actually be images,
rather than text ... Taking the incredible step to block your users'
access to and from Google, the de-facto clearinghouse and meetinghouse
of the Web, is a bold and almost paranoid move for MovableType to make
in a war that hasn't even begun (neither the new Google-powered
Blogger, nor MT's new TypePad sevice, have yet to launch). It's as if
MT has forgotten how precarious their strong hold is over such a
fickle group of fans."
For reference, the author was referring to this
dollarshort.org post, which, I assume could have only benefitted
from a "THIS IS A JOKE" disclaimer.
The confusion over my feeble attempts at humor has spurred us to
create the <$MTJoke$> tag, which from this moment on, is a required
Movable Type tag to be used when indicating sarcasm, gentle ribbing,
playful jests and half-truths.
THIS IS A JOKE!
I guess my 26 paragraph screed on Google's gourmet chef wouldn't go

Why I'm an Acolyte of the Cult of Dean
Why I'm an Acolyte of the Cult of Dean
10/29/2003 12:10 AMNormally I'll have nothing to do with any sort of organized religion,
as almost every one has an aggressive branch of proselytism. It's
interesting, though; I've never been averse to being spiritual, to
having faith in things, etc. Howard Dean's found a way to proselytise
without being rude: provide an open forum for people to congregate,
and never waver from what's in his heart. I think this method works
for anybody, but I've never seen anyone with the power to go for
President realize this; it sounds like JFK might have been the last.
Interestingly, those are some of the core principles that we're
discovering at the roots of this whole "blogging" thing; you cannot
waver from the guidance of your heart, you must be honest and direct.
The technological implementation of blogging is where we find the
community-building, though;...

Missile Defense Is A Cult
Missile Defense Is A Cult
12/19/2004 03:10 PMUp here in Canada we’re coming under political pressure from
President Bush to sign up for the U.S. Missile Defense program,
we’ve got all this territory up North where they’d like to situate
the launchers. Rather than just saying “Get lost!”,
our Mr. Martin is (wisely I
think) playing it cool and fuzzifying. It’s good not to irritate the
U.S. when you don’t have to, but there’s absolutely no need for
Canada to assist the dwindling but influential band of cultists who
believe that Missile Defense is anything but a defense-contractor
boondoggle. It was bogus back when Reagan launched it and it’s still
bogus. But don’t take my word for it, check out what the American
Institute of Physics
has to
say. Mind you, it’s less dangerous now than it was in Reagan’s
day, when there was a nonzero probability that “Star Wars” might
have provoked some paranoid Russians who were sufficiently stupid to
believe that it might work to launch a first strike while they still
had a chance. (
Lauren has
told me of how she, like every other underfunded Physics Ph.D. in the
Eighties, noticed how dressing research up as missile-defense-related
was a good way to tap into the gushing SDI money pipeline). Now,
it’s just an
extremely
profitable waste of money. We all know that religious cults are
distinguished by believing in things that are obviously not true,
usually combined with substantial cash flows in the direction of those
running the cult. Missile defense is an obvious example.

Rational calendar with 364 days, extra
week celebrating Isaac Newton
01/04/2005 08:35 AMCory Doctorow:
An American physicist has developed a "rational" calendar of 364 days,
in which each date falls on the same day of the week every year, thus
saving profs the bother of drawing up new homework schedules every
September.
His constraints meant eight months would have different lengths than
they do now. March, June, September, and December would each contain
31 days, while the other months would each get 30. To keep the
calendar in synchronisation with the seasons, Henry inserted an extra
week - which is not part of any month - every five or six years. He
named the addition "Newton Week" in honour of his favourite physicist,
Isaac Newton.
"If I had my way, everyone would get Newton Week off as a paid
vacation and could spend the time doing physics, or other activities
of their choice," he says.
Despite this incentive, Henry says he has encountered resistance to
his plan - mainly because people would be "stuck" with a birthday that
always falls on a Wednesday, for example. Henry, who is among that
group, is not moved by the argument. "You have my permission to
celebrate your birthday the preceding or following Saturday," he says.
