Five and doing just fine, PII

Five and doing just fine, PII 07/07/2004 11:35 AM

Oh, and here's another story about Isaac I really like:

Every week my wife takes him to a nearby nature center where he learns about all sorts of things, including rocks, bugs, birds, and - on one occasion - the phases of the moon. At the end of this class, the teacher handed out a black-and-white line drawing of the moon and asked the kids color it.

Walking around the classroom, the teacher was pleased to see so many kids using their yellow crayons to color the drawing. When she reached Isaac's desk, though, she stopped and looked concerned. You see, rather than carefully coloring the moon, Isaac had grabbed a handful of crayons and attacked the drawing with random slashes of brown, green, gray and purple. The puzzled teacher asked him what he was doing, and Isaac - clearly happy with his creation - replied that he was drawing the inside of the moon.

I'm happy to report, too, that my three-year-old daughter, Hannah, likewise shows plenty of signs of thinking for herself. Not too long ago she was gleefully drawing a picture which looked sort of - but not entirely - like someone's foot. I sat down next to her and asked what she was drawing, and she grinned and replied, "an evil toe!" then started laughing maniacally.

Okay, so maybe that's more cause for alarm than hope, but I'm still proud of her.

Can You Fine Me Now?

Can You Fine Me Now? 08/31/2004 01:21 PM
If you thought New York City's ban on using a mobile phone at any kind of performance (with its $50 fine) was a bit much, you might want to avoid the libraries in Huntington Beach, California. You can now ge t fined up to $1,000 for using your phone in the library. Admittedly, that's only for your third strike. The first offense is $250, the second $500. They had considered a 6 month jail term but decided, all in all, that might be a bit much.

Five and doing just fine

Five and doing just fine 07/06/2004 10:06 PM

Last week my son Isaac turned five - which means that TopStyle is also five years old. You see, both of them were born the same day. And that day was certainly among the most stressful I've ever had.

I spent several months working hard on TopStyle 1.0, and was very nervous about its release since I had the ghost of HomeSite hovering over me. I remember putting in countless 18-hour work days making sure that the release would go smoothly, and a few hours after posting the final release I hit the bed, exhausted.

A couple of hours later my wife woke me up to tell me her water had just broke - five weeks earlier than expected.

Being the sensitive guy I am, I tried to convince her that she was simply having bladder control problems. Let's just say that this line of reasoning didn't meet with much acceptance. So, off to the hospital we went, me driving like a bat out of hell, with my wife acting surprisingly relaxed about the whole thing.

Many hours and many small emergencies later, Isaac decided to finally greet the world.

When I look back on the five years since that day, it's clear that one of my biggest concerns with raising Isaac has been how to gradually expose him to popular culture without allowing it to turn him into a mindless consumer. As much as I enjoy a lot of our pop culture, I'm also really bothered by how it tries to feed kids an over-abundance of idiotic, soul-less crap.

In the hopes that he'd learn to actually appreciate music rather than believe it's something that only surgically altered pop stars can produce, my wife and I started taking him to a weekly music class with a group of other toddlers. During one of these classes, the instructor asked every child to pick out a drum and sing a song while beating it. Isaac dutifully grabbed a bongo drum and bashed it senseless, but rather than sing along, he kept his mouth shut tight. After a little while the instructor asked him why he wasn't singing, and my then three-year-old son replied very matter-of-factly, "because it's an instrumental," then went right back to banging away.

That's when I knew the kid was going to be just fine :)

A fine day to die

A fine day to die 06/23/2004 02:47 AM
BATHORY mastermind Thomas "Quorthon" Forsberg has passed away. A fine day to die? Mayhaps but maybe also too soon at a young 39. One might think that those interested in the black stuff would already know of this passing, but like Elton John said, "...then again, no" because I just found out tonight. So there it is, if any of you are listening to "Blood, Fire, Death" while at a grim and blasphemous desk job like me but have missed the news. Reviews are here of the "band" that took off in a grim way from Slayer and Venom and spawned a grip of younger Scandanavian agents like these and them. (mild warning: when reading about black metal you will no doubt read about some people with anti-social ideas.)

Just running a little behind today hence the lack of blog postings.  But Feedster is nearing in on the "100,000 posts indexed point" (I wonder if I can get fries with that).  Very cool.

Other random stuff I found interesting:

• I missed Elwyn's comments in MicroDoc News about Feedster on Monday.  Thanks!
• Jeremy's MySQL presentations sound awesome.  Sorry I won't be there.
• Chris has interesti ng search results (not from Feedster)
• Aaron has a good overview of live audio streaming.  I'm not up on this and it was a good read.  Recommended.
• Via Inessential: Tom Bridge has an interesting Net News Wire feature request.  I wonder if Feedster plays into that.
• Via John from Angi e: Here's a good and free stock photo service.  I liked this one.

The surprising legacy of Y2K. In the runup to the new millennium, my uncle stocked a bunker full of supplies and ammunition and drove around with more in the trunk of his car. Crazy? Maybe, but this piece by American Public Media might get him off the hook and at the same time give the geeks who staved off armageddon a little credit. [Audio version at NPR's Marketplace]

I'm so incredibly grateful that life is currently as good as it is, and I think that it's important to enjoy times like these when they come along.

I know it won't always be as good as it is right now, but times like this make the bad times more bearable . . . and as longtime readers know, I've had more than my fair share of the bad times over the last few years.

A thorough mess perhaps, but a necessary one. The DMCA is so clearly out of step with reality that reopining it is inevitable. However, I won't dismiss the possiblity that the "reopening" process will lead to something worse.

The Fine Art of Sampling Contest

The Fine Art of Sampling Contest 12/17/2004 06:33 PM

Today we launched a new site, and a new contest. Check out CC Mixter to win a chance to be on the next Fine Arts Militia album featuring Chuck D, or a chance to be featured on the Creative Commons release, THE WIRED CD: Ripped. Sampled. Mashed. Shared. Sample The Beastie Boys, David Byrne, DJ Danger Mouse, and many others to win!

The Fine Art of Sampling Contest, builds off November's release of the THE WIRED CD: Rip. Sample. Mash. Share., which contains sixteen tracks licensed under Creative Commons Sampling licenses. The licenses allow you to sample the tracks into your own musical creations, without legal hassle.

To demonstrate how easily songs can be sampled, mashed, and shared, we built a new site/application called CC Mixter, thanks in part to the work of veteran music mixer, Victor Stone, and WebJay creator, Lucas Gonze. CC Mixter has all the WIRED CD tracks plus loops from each song. And when you upload your own mashup, the site is able to track connections between songs, so you can quickly see everyone that used that same sample in their own work, and everyone that cut up one of the WIRED CD songs.

The site also lets you connect to other people -- say for example, find me all the musicians who like jazz music, you can review tracks, and there's a forum to post questions and comments. We're also happy to announce we're getting the CC Mixter software ready to release as open source software, so that anyone can build their own related community around any kind of content, be that video, fan fiction, educational materials, or whatever you want.

They come in many forms, helping you remember everything from taxonomic classifications ("King Phillip Came Over For Good Sex") to the order of the planets ("My Very Easy Method Just Speeds Up Naming Planets") to musical staves to the first 31 decimal places of pi to how to spell tricky words such as "rhythm" or "principal." They're more a way of life for med students, birdwatcher s, and boaters< /a>. Which mnemonics have helped you survive?

The point isn't that the media sometimes make mistakes. We all know that. For me, the point is that it was too small an error for the medium to acknowledge. I suppose I could have written a letter and they would have run it in their corrections box. But that would have been so long after the...
