03/19/2003 10:45 PMBusiness 2.0's published its annual roundup of the 101 Dumbest Moments
in Business.
Panic in the heartland, part 1: The crisis begins.
Outside a Wal-Mart (WMT) in the small town of Geneseo, Ill., a
73-year-old woman buys a newspaper and suddenly finds herself trapped
when the door of the news rack slips closed and catches her coat.
Unable to wriggle out, she solicits a bystander to enter the Wal-Mart
and ask for help. A Wal-Mart employee comes out to explain that she
can't assist, citing a policy against tampering with the news rack.
Panic in the heartland, part 2: The tense negotiation.
After going back inside for a moment, the Wal-Mart employee comes out
and tells the trapped woman that she'll call the newspaper and have a
representative come to release her. The woman suggests an alternative
solution: Somebody could simply put two quarters in the machine and
open the damn door. The Wal-Mart employee rejects this out of hand,
explaining that the store can't pay refunds for the news rack.
Panic in the heartland, part 3: The sweet taste of liberation.
Eventually the employee relents and puts two quarters in the machine.
Later the liberated woman's daughter visits the store and gives her a
$5 bill to be used strictly to finance future releases. A Wal-Mart
corporate spokesperson apologizes for the incident, saying, "This is
not how we do business."

01/12/2004 12:47 AMI can't believe Cheney
changed his stance on gay marriage, and so completely at that.
What kind of father goes out on a national stage and says he
doesn't believe his own daughter deserves the same rights in her life that he
enjoys with his own marriage?
It's not like Dick and Mary have a bad relationship, all his quotes
from 2000 supported her and kept her out of the limelight, while she
put off grad school to work on his campaign and consulted on gay
issues for the 2000 election. They reportedly accept Mary's longtime
partner, Heather Poe, into their home and call her part of the
family.
The vice president and his wife have fought for family values
without completely alienating their daughter until now. I know
sometimes career takes precidence over family and that Bush and Cheney
have shown on more than one occasion that they can be hypocritical,
but Cheney just proved he's worse than all that. He's a shitty father
for not defending his daughter.
For Shame Zend! For Shame!

12/28/2002 08:49 AMFor Shame Zend! For Shame!
I saw over on PHP Everywhere that Zend is having an Interview / Online
event with Zeev about PHP 5 (Zeev = Senior Demi God of PHP type of
fellow). Yesterday it came up fine but I refreshed the window this
morning and then got this message:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a004c'
Path not found
D: INTERWISE WWWVC IWCAMPUS ICCFILES ZEND EVENTPAGE
OI1336../../../../Include/DBConnectionString.inc, line 52 (spaces
added for proper breaks in this template) [_Go_]
You know something ... I could actually care less about the VBScript
stuff (but it is funny) but I do find it really unacceptable that a
vendor you pay money to goes down like this. PHP is a highly
international community and, consequently, so is Zend. While it may
be 7 am in Boston, it's not in London or Israel or other markets they
serve. Hasn't anyone heard of monitoring your site for failure and
then pinging an admin's pager ?
Note: I'm not saying I'm perfect here myself but I'm also not running
this type of a 24x7 service. Still the hosting for my clients doesn't
go down.

01/17/2004 10:42 PM Books I
Did Not Read This Year: For novelty or perhaps for gleeful
one-downmanship, Kieran at Crooked Timber shares a list of books he
did
not read in 2003.
Literary guilt is hardly
new, but
some
argue our neuroses about unread books grows as our distractions
multiply. Of course, this attitude (besides bordering on criticism of
the glib, "pop lite" type) usually comes part and parcel
with the common complaint that paper culture is dead. And one could
easily make a distinction between neurotic englit-geek Guilt and the
casual reader's mere missed opportunity. Without rehashing either of
those discussions, what are the (presumably) best books (or any pieces
of art) you
didn't consume in 2003?

Lessig: Shame on you, O'Reilly
Lessig: Shame on you, O'Reilly
07/24/2004 04:14 PMLarry Lessig has written a long open letter to Bill O'Reilly that
opens "You have declared a 'war' on the New York Times. That's good
for you, good for them, and good for our democracy: Strong opinions
deserve strong spokesmen. Your battle will help sharpen a debate about
matters important to the Republic." Lessig then proceeds to take
O'Reilly to task, point-by-point for an ongoing campaign of
pathological libel agaist Jeremy Glick, the son of a 9/11 victim who
spoke out against the Bush Presidency and the war. Glick appears in
Outfoxed, a new documentary that criticises O'Reilly and his network,
and in answering the charges raised in Outfoxed, O'Reilly has chosen
Glick as a symbol of what he hates, and in order to make his point, he
has been lying repeatedly about what Glick said and did. Lessig's
point is that attacking a giant media organisation is one thing, but
using your on-camera bully pulpit to repeatedly slander someone who
has already lost so much is unconscionable.
# on February 5th, you told your viewers that "Glick was out of
control." He may have been out of your control. But you and our
government have got to learn that just because someone disagrees with
you, he doesn"t become a security threat. Again, watch the interview,
Mr. O"Reilly. He was not "out of control."
# on February 5th, you told your viewers that Glick was "spewing
hatred for this program." Watch the interview, Mr. O"Reilly. He
criticized you, not the program, for unethically using sympathy for
the 9/11 victims for your own political ends. He was calling your
behavior improper. You had not earned his hatred.

Wall of shame for RSS feeds?
01/26/2004 04:12 PMI get bug reports every day about feeds that don’t display
correctly in NetNewsWire. At least 99% of the time it’s because
the feed is invalid, but not so invalid that NetNewsWire gives up on
it.
Most of the time I encourage the person who submitted the bug report
to report the bug to the feed producer. I have no idea how often that
happens—at any rate, it seems to have little affect. Some feeds
(some popular feeds, even) stay broken.
Somebody suggested creating a wall of shame for broken RSS feeds. (I
apologize: I don’t remember who suggested it.)
Part of me loves the idea. I’d create a weblog where I and other
people could post reports of broken feeds.
But I don’t really like the idea because it’s so, well,
negative. The big picture is to
encourage syndication, not
play syndication cop.
(Imagine a site saying that they took down their RSS feed because the
syndication police kept bugging them. It would happen.)
Anyway, in short—wall of shame, no. But I’m still thinking
about ways to boost the quality of feeds.

The Shame of Adult Male Virginity
The Shame of Adult Male Virginity
08/23/2004 04:39 AMMy feeling is that somewhere between the ages of 18 and 22-25 society
starts expecting men to not be virgins. Well, maybe "expecting" is
not the right word, but that's the age range were I started
feeling shame about being a virgin. There are many advantages to
being a virgin: you know you're not diseased, you know you're not a
daddy and you don't have a woman who has reached deep into your inner
feelings and can manipulate you with that leverage. A quick side note
about diseases: besides the scary lifelong and life-threatening
sexually transmitted diseases it is estimated that as many as 50% of
sexually active singles have Genital Warts, for which there is no
cure. They are extremely easy to transfer between partners and can be
a precursor to penile, cervical and rectal cancer.
