The Man Who Saved The World
03/31/2005 01:38 AMLots of times I say it doesn't matter if you get credit if your idea
succeeds, because if you believe in it, you probably care more about
the idea than your own recognition. And more specific to geeks and
technology, it doesn't matter if you're first, especially if you
have...

Can Email Be Saved?
Can Email Be Saved?
04/16/2004 06:32 PMInfoworld went out and asked six "experts" if they were starting from
scratch
how they would build an email system to prevent spam -
and the answers aren't anything new. They tend to fall into three
categories: identify/authenticate users, shift certain functions away
from email or sue, sue, sue. Of course, people are trying all these
things already and so far... still plenty of spam. Also, in the intro
to the article, it says that they asked an "unrepentant spammer" for
his take on how to stop spam - but whoever it is, his response doesn't
appear in the article. I searched around the InfoWorld site and I
can't find it at all. In fact, I hadn't realized just how confusing
the InfoWorld site is until now. It's pretty much impossible to find
stuff unless something from the outside points you directly in to an
article. Perhaps before they save email, they should save their own
site. Anyway, if anyone can find the spammer's take, please let us
know via the comments so I can adjust this post.

How Linux Saved Microsoft
How Linux Saved Microsoft
04/19/2005 03:45 AMI've been looking back this week and recalling almost a decade ago
when a little company called Netscape prematurely slapped Microsoft
(Nasdaq: MSFT) upside the head and by so doing better positioned
Microsoft for the future. Granted, I'm sure Microsoft would have loved
to avoid the related litigation that continues to this day, but were
it not for Netscape, Microsoft would have missed the Internet badly
and would have had some much tougher years then they did.
As I look at how Microsoft is changing to address the Linux threat,
one that may actually turn out to be no more real then Netscape's was,
I can't help but see how Microsoft has dramatically benefited from it
-- and much more broadly so than they did from the rise of Netscape.

the coolest run-from-CD Linux Distribution ever. But it gets better.
When I got home from flying this evening, there were two messages on
my answering machine. Both were my Dad telling me that his work laptop
was fubar. He wanted to find a way to backup the data to his Linux box
(one that I setup for him as a home server last year--that he doesn't
know much about)....

Free music that streams to your media player
Posted Apr 9, 2004, 7:46 AM ET by Alberto Escarlate
From Wired
News: Webjay, is a website
in which users build their own playlists of free music — like a
mix tape — and share them with friends. It doesn’t store the
files, but it pulls together the URLs for each track and puts them in
a playlist format.
Webjay regular Brett Singer, a New York theater producer
and computer consultant, builds playlists in his spare time. He’s
created more than 50 collections with titles like Song-a-Day, a list
made up of songs he has chosen each day for the past two months. On
March 28, he had a seaweed treatment, so he chose a song by the group
Seaweed Soup. He picked a song called “Party Party” on the
occasion of his kid’s birthday party.
There isn’t only music playlists. You can find Lawrence
Lessig’s “Free Culture” read aloud by miscellaneous
people: Lessig/Free Culture audiobook project.[The Digital Music
Weblog]
Congrats to Lucas Gonze. The meme spreads.

Scripting by the Bay,
Redux -- For those who need to acquire or hone AppleScript
skills, Shane Stanley and Ray Robertson will once again be leading
their wonderfully intensive AppleScript Pro sessions, 02-May-05
through 06-May-05, in beautiful Monterey, California. I'm slated once
again to teach my famous "forced march through AppleScript
Studio" class. One source of real excitement is the question of
whether Tiger will have shipped in time; if it does, we'll be able to
talk about the new features, such as BLEEEP and
BOOOP (sorry, censored by the NDA police). [MAN]
ReST vs RPC Redux
ReST vs RPC Redux
03/11/2003 11:53 AMIt looks like SOAP is destined to continue to be maligned and
misunderstood.
Dave Winer is
upset because not everybody limits themselves to his
narrow RPC profile of
SOAP usage. Non-RPC usage of SOAP isn't new - it was always
in the
spec.
And things that fit Dave's narrow profile continue to interop.
Mark Baker is
upset because SOAP permits usages which are not, in his and
many people's opinion, well architected. Usages such as
RPC. While many of Mark's arguments resonate with me, he
tends to throw the baby out with the bathwater. He might as
well say that Python is not a good language for building REST
systems because it can also be used for RPC.
Meanwhile, where Mark
throws up
his hands, others are
making progress.
Fat Club redux
Fat Club redux
08/27/2004 01:34 PM
Yesterday, Mutsumi in our office told me half a
dozen times that I looked "bigger". I'd been thinking about how to
lose some weight and I remembered
Fa
t Club because
Jan
e linked to a Fat Club entry on her blog. For some reason, I seem
to be able to motivate myself to lose weight when I'm competing. I
asked everyone in our office if they wanted to join Fat Club 2004.
Kuri,
Jim and
Nob agreed to participate. The race
is to see who can lose 10% of their body weight first and sustain it
for one week. The last one in has to be a slave to the winner for a
day. Slave rights can be sold or rented. We decided to set up a
private wiki to organize this event.
Mizuka bought a fancy scale awhile ago hinting that I should
probably lose some weight. I jumped on it this morning and it told me
that I had the body of a 49 year old. (I'm 38.) The fancy scale uses
Bioelectric Impedance to measure your body fat and calculates basal
metabolism, body fat percentage, muscle percentage, internal body fat
level, your body mass index and your body age equivalent. Let me just
say it was very motivating. This new scale has 6 contacts, two for
your hands and 4 for your feet and seems more accurate than some of
the older models.
