I just came accross this article on CNN.com. Three restaurants at the House of Representatives are proposing to replace the word "French" with the word "Freedom" in the names of two items of food on their menus. This is intended to indicate displeasure with the stance taken by France on the possibility of war with Iraq.

Here's the same situation, this time expressed truthfully. My wife and her cousin are very close. They are the same age, grew up together, and live within a couple of miles. You know how it can be with cousins: they are the closest relatives we're allowed to dislike, but they can also be a friend so close that you share DNA.

Buying prostitutes. Nicholas Kristof (of the NY Times; reg. req.) bought the freedom of two young Cambodian prostitutes in order to return them to their villages... but it wasn't as simple as you might think. It's easy to be cynical (yes, he's using it as grist for columns; yes, it's a drop in the bucket), but isn't it better than doing nothing? Anyway, it's a fascinatingly messy story.

Views of Freedom


Views of Freedom 05/17/2004 12:13 AM
The recent relea se of MT3.0 has provoked a whole lot of smart commentary around the net over the past few days: for example see Simon Phipps (here and here) and Alan Bleaklow. But the one that hit me hardest is Mark Pilgrim’s Freedom 0. This piece has been criticized (correctly) as disconnected from the way consumer software works (summary: users pay for features). And indeed, Mark doesn’t think about this the way a consumer would: how many of them run eleven sites? Instead, he thinks about this like a CIO does . “Freedom 0” is all about predictability and risk reduction; CIO territory, big-time. Mark carries the argument to extremes because that’s the kind of writer he is, but it’s an argument everyone in the software business should be thinking about.

Juneteenth: It's all about freedom 06/19/2004 07:31 AM
June 19 -- long known in Texas simply as Juneteenth -- is a unique state holiday. It's the anniversary of the day in 1865 when General Gordon Granger landed in Galveston, Texas, and read aloud the Emancipation Proclamation, two and a half years after it should have taken effect. Although General Lee had surrendered a couple of months earlier, there were simply not enough Union troops present prior to General Granger's arrival to enforce the proclamation.

  • Dahlia Lithwick (Slate): A Supreme Court Dialogue. I don't think it's possible to overstate the importance of these decisions, yet I fear the public still somehow believes they just have to do with some guys "out there," a handful of terrorists down at Gitmo and some bad men in Navy brigs. The photos accompanying these stories on the front pages will all be of alleged terrorists, even though these cases are really all about the president. The truth is, those alleged terrorists may, at most, win the right to a hearing someday, in which they will probably be deemed bad guys again and locked up anyhow. These cases have everything to do with the scope of executive power and secrecy in wartime (and outside of wartime if you throw in the Cheney energy task force case). Padilla's a footnote.

    David Pescovitz: For four years, Dudley Cates Jr. of Southampton, NY has tried to market his Crop Circle Beer. The beverage is based on barley taken from an English grain field where crop circles have mysteriously appeared. Now Blue Point Brewing Company is brewing the amber ale, for sale in the Hamptons, Manhattan, and Long Island.
    "Crop circles carry an aura of mystery," said Cates... who first became intrigued with the legends behind the designs while living in Aspen, Colo. "I thought to myself, this phenomenon is real."

    Also, said Cates, "I love beer."

    Is Microsoft toast?


    Is Microsoft toast? 03/28/2005 08:49 AM
    The US government proved that Microsoft possessed, and illegally exploited, monopoly power in the “antitrust case of the century”, the six-year action that ended in July 2004. The Final Judgment allowed Microsoft to remain whole, but imposed conditions that permit rival software makers to tuck their products into its Windows operating system. Anti-Microsoft groups were outraged; a spokesman for one said: “This decision represents the failure of antitrust laws in the high-tech industry… An unrestrained monopolist in the most vibrant sector of the economy cannot be good for America.” The critics were right: the Government’s remedies have had little impact. Yet today customers are flocking to Microsoft’s competitors. Hammered on multiple fronts by opportunistic rivals, the high-flying starship of the PC Age has stalled, and many wonder if it will now crash and burn. Compare the fortunes of Apple and Microsoft. To most, Apple is yesterday’s news, “That ‘70s Show.” But the company, despite myriad marketing blunders, has survived, and today the Mac is back. Finally price competitive with PCs, and offering software used interchangeably with other programs, the company is staging a run. Apple’s share of the US desk top computers market was up by half from 2003 to 2004.

    The Martin Government Is Toast


    The Martin Government Is Toast 04/07/2005 10:28 PM
    One the one hand, you’ve got a minority government that’s just been caught laundering a million bucks through corrupt ad agencies back into its own coffers. On the other hand, you’ve got a weak and divided opposition; I for one am unconvinced they’d govern better. Doesn’t matter; when a government acts this badly it just has to be spanked, pour encourager les autres. Go on Stephen, Jack, and Gilles, pull the damn trigger already and let’s have an election and give the Liberals a dose of opposition. It’ll make us all feel better, and our politics are strongly enough centre-loaded that it’ll be hard for the next government to do too much damage. It’ll probably be another minority government anyhow, which is probably a good thing at this stage.
