The creativity explosion on Mars
The creativity explosion on Mars
01/27/2004 05:15 PM
There's a nice piece in the NYTimes about the
increased levels of public participation in recent Mars landings. A
big part of the reason is that given a large, interested population
with broadband connections, NASA officials have done their best to share every bit of data,
image, and video they can online, and as a result thousands of
websites have cropped up including those by laymen colorizing images
and even weblogs written
from the rover's point of view.
Thanks to NASA sharing every bit of information they can online, the
experience of watching the Mars landing and exploration for students
and observers today is a far cry from the days of the moon landing.
Instead of a one-way communication delivered by grainy video on
television, we have an interactive, two-way process where the viewer
can help scientists on the other side of the globe and take in
information along with millions of others, sharing their own
interpretations online.

Information Explosion Confirmed
Information Explosion Confirmed
11/06/2003 11:11 AMInformation Explosion Confirmedhttp://www.sims.berkeley.edu/research/projects/how-much-info-2003/
The quantity and flow of information is exploding at
an amazing rate, according to a new study by the School of Information
Management and Systems at University of California-Berkeley. Among
their jaw-dropping findings: the amount of new information stored on
paper, film, magnetic and optical media has roughly doubled in the
last three years. Five exabytes of new information -- roughly five
billion gigabytes -- was created in 2002 alone. How big are five
exabytes? Imagine half a million libraries as big as the Library of
Congress print collections, and you're on the right track. Each year
almost 800 MB of recorded information is produced per person. If
stored on paper, that would take about 30 feet of books. But 92% of
all that new information is stored on magnetic media, mostly hard
disks, rather than on paper, film or optical media. But there's much
more than stored information. Information flowing through electronic
channels -- telephone (both cellular and landline), radio, TV and the
Internet -- is far larger. Almost 18 exabytes of new information was
generated in 2002, three and a half times more than the amount stored.
Five billion instant messages per day produce 274 terabytes a year. (A
terabyte is about 1,000 gigabytes.) E-mail racks up about 400,000
terabytes of new information each year worldwide. About 31 billion
e-mails are sent daily, a figure which is expected to double by 2006.
E-mail ranks second behind the telephone as the largest information
flow. E-mail users include 35% of the total U.S. population and
accounts for over 35% of time spent on the Internet. The UC-Berkeley
study estimates that about one-third of all e-mail is spam.

Left Behind deconstructed
Left Behind deconstructed
12/14/2003 09:51 PM"Left Behind" is an immensely popular science fiction series about the
sinners left behind on earth after good Christians are swept up in the
rapture. Over at Slacktivist, a blogger has been dissecting the book
in two- and three-page chunks, tearing apart the assumptions,
fallacies and curiously compelling heresies in the story.
Charlie Stross and I just finished "Appeals Court," the sequel to Jury Service, which Argosy magazine will publish
bound together in January, in a fix-up novel called "Rapture of the
Nerds." "Appeals Court" is, in part, a response to "Left Behind": a
story about a world where the only hominids who haven't ascended to
the post-human cloudmind are reactionaries, missionaries, and
religious fundamentalists.
Here's a little chunk of "Appeals Court," so you can see what I mean:
The ant-colony has taken the entire Atlantic coast of the US, has
marched on Georgia and west to the Mississippi. It is an anarchist
colony, whose females lay eggs without regard for any notional Queen,
and it has entered its eighth year of life, which is middle-aged for a
normal colony, but may be just the beginning for the Hypercolony.
The God-botherers have no treaty with the ants, but have come to view
them as another proof of the impending end of the world. Anything that
is not contained in chink-free, seamless plastic and rock is riddled
in ant-tunnels within hours. They've learned to establish airtight
seals around their homes and workplaces, to subject themselves to
stinging insecticide showers before clearing a vestibule, to listen
for the tupperware burp whenever they seal their children in their
space-suits and send them off to Bible classes.
The ants have eaten their way through most of the nematode species
beneath the soil, compromised all but the most plasticized
root-systems of the sickening flora (the gasoline refining forests are
curiously symbiotic with the colony -- anarchist supercolonies like
living cheek-by-mouth-part with a lot of hydocarbons). They've eaten
the bee-hives and wasp-nests, and they've laid waste to any comestible
not tinned and sealed, leaving the limping Americans with naught but a
few billion tons of processed food to eat before their supply bottoms
out.
The American continent is a fairy tale that the cloudmind tells itself
whenever it doubts its collective decision to abandon humanity. The
left-behinds there spent their lives waiting for an opportunity to
pick up a megaphone and organize crews with long poles to go digging
through the ruins of civilization for tinned goods. Presented with
their opportunity in the aftermath of the Geek Rapture, they are happy
as evangelical pigs in shit -- plenty to rail against, plenty of
fossil fuel, plenty of firearms.
What more could they possibly need?
and here's Slacktivist on "Left Behind":
The first words of Left Behind are "Rayford Steele," the protagonist's
name.
It sounds like a porn star's name -- and in a sense it is. The Left
Behind series is dispensational porno, but it's more than that. One of
the most disturbing things about this book is the way LaHaye and
Jenkins portray men, women and the relationships between them.
Note that Tim LaHaye's wife is something of a professional misogynist.
She runs the 500,000-member "Concerned Women for America" -- jokingly
referred to by its critics as "Ladies Against Women." For years, while
Beverly LaHaye's husband pastored a church in San Diego, Mrs. L. spent
most of her time 3,000 miles away, in Washington, D.C., running a
large organization committed to, among other things, telling women
they should stay at home and sacrifice their careers for their
husbands. She is not an ironic woman and doesn't seem to find any of
this inconsistent. (Nor, as I found out firsthand, does she appreciate
jokes about the Freudian implications of the view from her L'Enfante
Plaza office window. Sometimes the Washington Monument is just a
cigar.)

No Samoyed Left Behind
04/02/2005 03:58 PMAlex and I are working out way up the East Coast now with a new
companion: a 9-month-old Samoyed puppy named "Sammy". He
wore out his welcome with a family in Norfolk, Virginia and is
coming to Boston under my "No Samoyed Left Behind" initiative.
Samoyeds are unpopular for fairly good reasons. Most people who
want a big dog want one that will be aggressive and attack other
humans. Hence the Top 10 American Kennel Club breed
registristrations include German Shepherds, Rottweilers, etc. (Pit
Bulls are not an AKC breed.) A second category of popular big
dog is the obedience champ, e.g., Labs and Goldens. These breeds
are smart and make an owner feel good by hanging on his every
word. The Arctic breeds are big and smart (as measured by their
ability to solve puzzles that reward them with things that they like,
e.g., food) but they don't see any particular reason to listen to most
humans and they aren't interested in attacking humans. Samoyeds
are easily bored. Especially when young they seem to need
constant companionship and entertainment, either from a person or
another dog. If they get bored they find ways to entertain
themselves. Unfortunately what is entertaining to a Samoyed
usually is not entertaining to his or her owner. Digging and
chewing are popular pastimes as is destroying the rugs and
furniture.
Sammy was living with a family in Norfolk. It sounded like an
ideal environment with a stay-at-home wife and kids aged 6 and 3 plus
a backyard with pool. Sammy, however, wanted to wrestle with the
kids non-stop and they were really too young and small to deliver the
required pounding to 45 lbs. of solid puppy muscle. The wife had
her hands full with the kids. So Sammy was left alone in the
backyard and would dig ("they did in the winter to keep warm; they dig
in the summer to keep cool; they dig in the fall and spring to keep in
practice" George's breeder used to say). He was sent to
sleep-away obedience camp for two weeks and came back with a good
report and knowledge of some commands, though not necessarily a lot of
interest in obeying them.
So... now he is coming up to New England where I am going to let
Alex wear him out for a month or two and then find him a home either
in the suburbs where there is a big fenced yard and some other dogs or
in the city with someone who works at home and can keep the dog with
him or her at all times for mutual companionship. No Samoyed
should live in the South and no Samoyed should be left behind...
[The question of naming arises. I like "Ralph" better than
"Sammy". And there is a terrier in Manhattan named "Sizzler"
whose name could be well applied to this little bundle of
energy. Any other ideas?]
