Science booklet for kids teaches
copyright instead


Science booklet for kids teaches
copyright instead
06/22/2005 01:49 AM
Cory Doctorow: Matt picked up a National Geographic science booklet for kids and discovered that it contains subtle propaganda for copyright maximalism:
"Suppose you have permission to photocopy the picture of Paramecium, and you enlarge it to twice its size. Would the magnification of x110 still be correct? Explain."

Note how it says, "suppose you have permission to photocopy the picture," instead of, "suppose you photocopy the picture," or even, "photocopy the picture."

Derrrrrr. Somehow the issue of copyright infringement has made its way explicitly and incongruously into a children's science booklet.

04/06/2005 06:48 AM
It seems that every recent story about Atari has been about their attempts (in their modern form -- quite different from the original Atari) to make a killing on the nostalgia market, offering up classic games from years back to today's adults -- either on computers or (increasingly) on mobile phones. However, it appears that many feel the basic concepts of old Atari videogames are still valuable for game designers to learn -- resulting in a competition to design new games for the Atari 2600. Of course, there's one twist: the games needed to be created in 24 hours. While the story is amusing to read, what it really does is remind people that, despite all the amazing graphics found in today's game, a game is still about gameplay at its core -- which many of today's game designers seem to forget.

04/14/2005 04:00 AM
There are concerns about the reliability and safety in the use of safety buses/networks for machine automatic safeguarding, particularly when safety and non-safety data is handled by the same bus/network. Nevertheless usage is expected to grow significantly over the forecast period, as the use of safety PLCs grows and reliability of operations with safety buses/networks becomes proven. Usage is particularly attractive when machines and controls become more complex (i.e., for example, requiring many emergency stops and/or safety gate switches with multiple actuators).

Educating Kids On Internet Risks


Educating Kids On Internet Risks 06/07/2004 04:07 PM
Just as we find out that parents might want to encourage kids to use computers as tools for learning, there's a study that says parents who over-react to the hype surrounding "Internet risks" may be preventing their kids from learning how to use computers properly. So we've said it before -- adding the word "Internet" as an adjective to risky activity shouldn't make anything sound more scary, but it does because the unfamiliarity with "Internet" things makes people forget that technology is really just the tool. The scariness of the Internet will probably only go away as everyone uses it and gains a better understanding of the realistic risks. Go education, go.
