Want Fries With That Outsourcing? 07/19/2004 02:49 AM
theodp writes "The NY Times reports that even restaurant jobs are not immune to outsourcing. Pull into the drive-through of a McDonald's just off U.S. 55 near Cape Girardeau, Missouri, and the person taking your order is more than 900 miles away in a Colorado Springs call center. A McDonald's IT VP says it is 'way, way too early' to tell if the call center idea would work across the chain's 13,000 U.S. restaurants." The claim is that by centralizing this service, it reduces the error rates and gets people through the drive-through faster -- though, it's not entirely clear why that's true.

More chromosomes, more better! BoingBoing reader Roland writes:
Phil Mackey is the general manager of the Mt. Lassen Trout Farms. His 30-pound rainbow trouts are hatched from eggs 'manipulated to produce fish with three sets of chromosomes instead of two.' The Los Angeles Times reports about these freakoid fishes (free registration needed), called 'blasphemy' by some purists because of their strange proportions. The third set of chromosomes renders the trout sterile, 'allowing them to conserve energy that otherwise would be spent on the development of sexual organs or mating,' and so to take more weight. This overview contains additional details about what is a good money-making business and a photo of one of these gargantuan rainbow trouts. Now I repeat my question: would you eat such a 'Frankenfish'?

Juneteenth: It's all about freedom 06/19/2004 07:31 AM
June 19 -- long known in Texas simply as Juneteenth -- is a unique state holiday. It's the anniversary of the day in 1865 when General Gordon Granger landed in Galveston, Texas, and read aloud the Emancipation Proclamation, two and a half years after it should have taken effect. Although General Lee had surrendered a couple of months earlier, there were simply not enough Union troops present prior to General Granger's arrival to enforce the proclamation.

Buying prostitutes. Nicholas Kristof (of the NY Times; reg. req.) bought the freedom of two young Cambodian prostitutes in order to return them to their villages... but it wasn't as simple as you might think. It's easy to be cynical (yes, he's using it as grist for columns; yes, it's a drop in the bucket), but isn't it better than doing nothing? Anyway, it's a fascinatingly messy story.

Views of Freedom


Views of Freedom 05/17/2004 12:13 AM
The recent relea se of MT3.0 has provoked a whole lot of smart commentary around the net over the past few days: for example see Simon Phipps (here and here) and Alan Bleaklow. But the one that hit me hardest is Mark Pilgrim’s Freedom 0. This piece has been criticized (correctly) as disconnected from the way consumer software works (summary: users pay for features). And indeed, Mark doesn’t think about this the way a consumer would: how many of them run eleven sites? Instead, he thinks about this like a CIO does . “Freedom 0” is all about predictability and risk reduction; CIO territory, big-time. Mark carries the argument to extremes because that’s the kind of writer he is, but it’s an argument everyone in the software business should be thinking about.
