Following Six Apart is like watching a

Following Six Apart is like watching a
train wreck in slow motion
09/01/2004 06:04 AM
Today Mena posted that Anil Dash got re-organized again. He was given his 3rd title that I know of for this year. Now he has the newly created position of VP of the Six Apart Professional Network. Congratulations, I hope. It isn't being advertised, but as an incentive to join the Professional Network, Six Apart is currently giving away 5 author commercial licenses for MT 3.1 to people who sign up for TypeKey, then for the Professional Network, then fill out their survey. Not a bad deal. Six Apart also announced that they released a new version of Movable Type, 3.1 and promptly got slammed for releasing a version with incompatible features. According to Brandon Fuller you can have your old plugins or dynamic pages, but not both, at least not without a lot of tweaking. The only exciting new features for users besides dynamic pages that I saw are delivered by plugins supplied by SixApart that SixApart is explicitly disclaiming any support for, which makes them a lot less appetizing than they might otherwise be. Personally, while delighted to have a licence to 3.1, I'm happy with my combination of pMachine, Wordpress and MT 2.661, and I'm in no hurry to upgrade my MT installations from 2.661, and judging from the other preliminary comments I've seen it doesn't seem like a lot of other people are as well. Ouch. This is sad. When Six Apart has a bad year, it's bad. I really liked Ben and Mena when I met them at Supernova 2002, and they have hired some people I really respect, but I have to say that following Six Apart this last year has been like watching a train wreck in slow motion. I hope that early impressions of this release are wrong and that their luck turns soon....

Alaska Man Accused of Watching Movie
During Fatal Wreck


Alaska Man Accused of Watching Movie
During Fatal Wreck
07/27/2004 04:09 PM

in-dash2d.jpg imageIn a ground-breaking trial, Alaskan prosecutors have accused a driver who accidentally killed a couple in a car accident of watching a DVD on an in-dash player during the accident, something that is not technically illegal in Alaska, but possibly still convictable as manslaughter (I'm presuming). We've all done stupid things like operate electronics while driving, and while I'm not saying this guy shouldn't be prosecuted if proven negligent, there is an interesting precedent set (or maybe not set) here. Watching a movie while driving is irresponsible, but is it that much different than looking at a map on an in-car guidance system LCD screen while driving? Hard to say. How much distraction is too much distraction?

More Fiscal Recklessness from Washington


More Fiscal Recklessness from Washington 09/23/2004 09:08 AM
  • NY Times: Deal in Congress to Keep Tax Cuts, Widening Deficit. Putting aside efforts to control the federal deficit before the elections, Republican and Democratic leaders agreed Wednesday to extend $145 billion worth of tax cuts sought by President Bush without trying to pay for them.
  • The irresponsibility of these folks boggles the imagination. We know the Republicans have long since abandoned any sense of seriousness on this issue, but to see the Democrats -- who were the party of fiscal responsibility in the 1990s -- go the same way is disheartening. It's not a tax cut. It's just a delayed tax increase. For our kids.

    Fiscal Danger and Opportunistic Politics


    Fiscal Danger and Opportunistic Politics 08/09/2004 07:57 AM
    (This is also my Sunday column in the San Jose Mercury News.) In politics, nothing succeeds like irresponsibility. It works wonders in the short term. Irresponsibility permeates the fiscal policies that now dominate in Washington and Sacramento. Last week, the Bush administration confirmed that the federal budget deficit would be the largest on record, and a few days earlier California's governor and Legislature enacted yet another smoke-and-mirrors budget. So America and its largest state continue our borrow-and-spend ways. We're only postponing the hard choices for others to make, but that's standard procedure. More...

    Microsoft Corp. customers have heard the vendor profess that its software allows them to "do more with less," but now it's Microsoft employees' turn: The company is cutting back on benefits. Microsoft plans to save nearly US$1 billion through efficiency improvements and cost-cutting in its 2005 fiscal year, Microsoft Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Steve Ballmer said in his annual strategy e-mail message to employees on Tuesday. The company's new fiscal year started on July 1. Over the past three years, expenses at Microsoft have grown faster than revenue. "This is obviously not a trend we can continue," Ballmer wrote. The company's plan to save money includes better coordinated marketing, which should save hundreds of millions of dollars, according to Ballmer.
