Cringely Argues Against Offshoring,
Offers No Solution


Cringely Argues Against Offshoring,
Offers No Solution
01/22/2004 06:21 PM
Robert Cringely's latest column spends a bunch of time criticiz ing offshoring - but seems to be terribly short sighted (though, he claims those supporting offshoring are the ones who are short sighted). There are plenty of reasons to be against offshoring. As I've said many times before, there's a lot of evidence that offshoring is a lot more expensive than companies seem to believe it is - and many are now regretting their decision to offshore. That said, there are other cases where it makes sense. That's not what Cringely says, though. He seems to buy into the argument that there simply aren't any jobs after we offshore programmers. There's an awful lot of evidence that that's not the case. There are many programming jobs that do require programmers to be near customers or to have a good understanding of the culture - and those are likely to increase. I'm also a bit confused in his logic. He admits that Silicon Valley (and, he should admit, the whole country) has reinvented itself time and time again - each time we outsource jobs to cheaper locations. However, he says that this time we won't be able to because "the labor is leaving". Does he mean the people? I don't think so, because earlier in the article he says all those programmers are "working down at Home Depot" because they can't find a job. So, it's just the jobs that are leaving. Of course, that's the definition of outsourcing - and it's the same thing that's always happened historically. This is no different. In fact, we're now in a situation where we have a lot of these programmers who are looking for work - so there's a huge resource there to help people reinvent our economy. Cringely claims he's not advocating protectionism, but if you read the article, he doesn't offer any other solution. How about this? The solution, which he ignores, seems obvious: we have an untapped resource in all of these smart un- or underemployed tech workers. That's an opportunity to get them involved in reinventing our economy and creating the next great thing.

02/19/2004 05:49 AM
When Novell jumped into the SCO vs. Linux fight, most of us weren't aware that the networking company was already deep in negotiations to buy SuSE Linux. While this might make its actions more self-serving, most Linux enthusiasts will overlook it as Messmann & Co., being willing to lead the fight to protect the open source operating system from the attacks of SCO's Darl MacBride and his cronies. I mention this, because there were a couple of developments last week.

Courage comes in all forms: John Brady
Kiesling argues for Preserving America's
Moral Capital
03/21/2003 04:42 AM
I went to hear John Brady Kiesling's talk at the Bechtel Auditorium at UC Berkeley tonight. It was a packed house, a few undergrads but mostly graduate students, professors, and Berkeley townspeople, filling up the chairs, sitting on the floor in front and in the aisles, and crowding around the doorways (I gather some of the undergraduates were out making their unhappiness with Bush's War known in a more traditional fashion.) Kiesling, author of the now famous resignation letter, was given a standing ovation when he entered the hall. He gave a great talk (although the Q&A, below, had the juiciest one-liners). He said that while he wished he could say that he was happy to be a temporary celebrity and giving talks, he wasn't. He said that last night, when Bush started the war against Iraq, marked a turning point in our history. It is the first time that the United States has struck the first blow. The United States has also imposed its own unilateral judgment that Iraqi freedom from the oppressive regime of Saddam Hussein was worth killing Iraqis for. He said that while he prayed for a quick and bloodless victory by our troops, followed by a rapid physical reconstruction and establishment of democracy, he didn't think it was very likely. He talked about his experiences since joining the Foreign Service in 1983. Then the United States had vast reservoirs of good will and moral capital. It was seen as strong in wealth and virtuous institutions, and as having avoided many of the vices of imperialism. It was truly the leader of the free world, and that leadership was willingly given to it. Recently, however the United States has been depleting that reservoir at an alarming rate, and not replenishing it, e.g. Kyoto, Test-Ban Treaty, ABM treaty, Trade liberalism, AIDs medicines for poorer countries, etc. Kiesling resigned his position as political officer in Athens because he personally found it intolerable to be defending Bush's policies. Plus, he felt that Bush owed it to the American people to have a real debate on the costs and benefits of his unilateralism, and that debate wasn't happening. He wanted a license to speak, and an audience to listen. He talked about how much Greek and European perceptions of America have changed. In Greece, Bush is now called "Ruler of the Universe." It is not a complement. The Greeks and...
