Turning Search Into a Science

Turning Search Into a Science 04/09/2004 04:09 PM

If you're looking for scientific information on the Web, Google might not be the best choice. Many researchers instead turn to Scirus. By Kristen Philipkoski.

Librarians turning to search engines to
present the deeper Web
06/22/2004 12:14 PM

Librarians are increasingly looking to work with search engines to present more content. Universities, such as Carnegie-Mellon , and organizations like the Online Computer Library Center ( OCLC ) are collaborating with Google and others to make their specialized, traditionally undersearched materials more available to the browsing public.

"Although it seems like an apocalyptic change now, over time we'll see that young people will grow up using many ways of finding information," said Abby Smith, director of programs at the Council on Library and Information Resources, a nonprofit group in Washington.

"We'll see the current generation we accuse of doing research in their pajamas develop highly sophisticated searching strategies to find high quality information on the Web," Dr. Smith said. "It's this transition period we're in, when not all high-quality information is available on the Web - that's what we lament."

http://www.super-sc ience-fair-projects.com/

Today your teacher announced that your school is going to have a science fair and students are responsible for exhibiting their projects. What do you feel? Enthusiastic? Despondent? Dreadful? Fearful? Excited?" This statement opens the Super Science Fair Projects site. Actually, whether student or parent, science fair projects, while great ways to get students actively involved in learning the scientific method and problem solving, can be tough assignments. This site may help you with one of the hardest parts: coming up with an idea. The site does a great job of walking the visitor through the steps needed to plan and implement a project, from Choosing a Topic, the Scientific Method, and writing the Project Report. There are even tips on displaying your project, rehearsing, winning over judges, and what to expect the day of the fair. This is definitely a great tool to tap into when planning a science fair project.[From The NSDL Scout Report for Math, Engineering, and Technology, Copyright Internet Scout Project 1994-2003. http://scout.wisc.edu/]

Political slogans come and go, but CNN reports that President Bush seems to be nailing the coffin shut rather quickly on his latest stump speech refrain -- the notion that America is "turning the corner." And who could blame him? With disappointing job numbers out, escalating violence in Iraq and widespread dissatisfaction among seniors with the Medicare prescription-drug benefit, Bush's "turning the corner" rhetoric can be turned around against him pretty easily.

Pushing and Turning


Pushing and Turning 05/19/2004 04:38 AM

For every startup, there comes a time when you stop looking around and start pushing, the long haul.  Your goals are clear so you pour all your resources into filling and expanding the rank and start beating the marching drum.  At the executive level, focus shifts from faces and dreams to numbers and dollars.  It's a time of metamorphosis that turns a group of people into an engine of profit.

If all the pushing goes well, swell.  If not, there is no point in keep pushing in the same direction.  But all to often, startups I worked with over the years continued to pump away until the money ran out.  The smart thing to do would have been to 'turn' your product line toward a direction that will give more easily just as a wrestler might.  Some VCs see 'turning' as compromising of the original business plan, a great poopoo.  Hogwash.

If the landscape changes, the map must change as well.


Turning thirty


Turning thirty 07/25/2004 07:45 AM
Kolibri has had a sudden anxiety attack over turning thirty. I, having passed that mark long ago, realized that there is very little I can say.

At some point you start to think of your life, and generally feel bad or good about it.

Thirty is as good as age as any.

Our society attaches certain labels to certain ages, and thirty is one of the ones where you are supposed to finally turn into a responsible adult (in case you hadn't done it before). I don't believe the exact age matters, but I think it is necessary for people to pause at some point and reflect. It's even inevitable. It's a part of growing up. So one should not feel too bad about it; in fact, one should welcome these moments of self-reflection. They are good.

My life changed at 27, and realized I am not who I thought I was. It took me a few years to get to grips with the fact that I am still, even at 34, at a complete loss as how to I should lead my life. It's like the more I learn, the less I know. And I guess that's how it should be. People who are older than me, feel free to correct me.

All I can do is to rely on some things that I think I know now. But I'm still "waddling through the swamp with leaking boots, in the dark with no light, and having no clue where to go; just trying to find firm ground; and not to drown."

Mayday Mystery. At the University of Arizona, a series of ads has been placed in the school's newspaper, the Arizona Wildcat. These ads have shown up every year around May 1st for the last 20 years or so, and seem to be cryptic puzzles relating to some sort of secret counterculture organization. Bryan Hance, the former webmaster of the Wildcat, noticed the ads, and has been trying to track down what's been going on ever since. He is chronicling his findings at www.maydaymystery.org.

Turning off your SSID is dumb


Turning off your SSID is dumb 12/10/2003 11:21 PM
Good, short white-paper explains why turning off your WiFi access point's SSID broadcast is not only bad for security, it's also bad for performance.
Contrary to a common belief that the SSID is a WLAN security feature and its exposure a security risk, the SSID is nothing more than a wireless-space group label. It cannot be successfully hidden. Attempts to hide it will not only fail, but will negatively impact WLAN performance, and may result in additional exposure of the SSID to passive scanning. The performance impact of this misguided effort will be felt in multiple WLAN scenarios, including simple operations like joining a WLAN, and in significantly longer roaming times.

I agree here. While previous mistakes don't make a wrong a right, I think our whole manual lacks any consistent concept of what we really feel needs to happen when and where.

Anyways we have a bunch of messes that are a result of the long period of limited peer review, followed by a period of package inflation, followed by the today ruling confusion.

I think its time we fix our standards by starting from a clean slate with a PEAR2. There we can think about how to best deal with our developer and users base and how to great the best possible code in a PHP version which actually supports our needs for OOP.

PEAR1 should of course be maintained as we all have an interest to keep that code running and to use PEAR1 as a momentum towards a PEAR2 which build on the past experience.

<rant> PEAR1 is now suffering from the fact that it focused from a long period of building technical foundations without planning the community growth at the same time. This has lead to numerous problems and is making us very inefficient. Of course PEAR1 has a lot to offer, but I don't think we are scaling well and past mistakes seem to haunt us more and more, which we don't seem to be able to fix. So I think we need to recognize our past which we of course need to maintain to remain credible, but at the same time we should work to build a more scalable PEAR2 in which we can address our issues on a clean slate. </rant>

> Would you be so kind to point me to the pear group document or public > discussion in which this requirement was approved?

There is no such decision I can remember. As George pointed out we discussed this point in Amsterdam, however I don't remember that anyone decided on requiring documentation at first commit. However our decisions there were mostly only concepts and not complete. Anyways maybe someone should check when this was commited anyways.

Regards, Lukas Smith
