New interview 06/24/2005 06:53 PM

Rebecca Blood s tarted a new feature on her site, setting out to interview bloggers about how they got started, why they do what they do, and what others can learn from that. I was lucky enough to be the first one, and she's posted part one of our interview (part two will be posted Friday).

If you also blog, you'll probably find something useful in it. It was good to talk to Rebecca and get into some hearty questions (mostly in part 2). I'm used to doing interviews with reporters writing for a general audience so it was refreshing to get really specific weblog-oriented questions directed at me.

Alpha ville Herald Interview with Don Hopkins.

Interview with Don Hopkins

In this interview, Don Hopkins describes his early days on the Sims development team with Will Wright (back when the project was called Dollhouse) and the difficulties the team had fighting EA's attempts to terminate the project, and then preventing EA from gutting it of interesting content (like architecture tools). Even now, he claims that EA fails to respect Will Wright and his vision by not developing custom content for TSO, and that it has shown no interest in a tool that he (Hopkins) created that would allow users to safely create custom objects that won't crash the game.

Overview of the Interview -- some headline quotes:

"I recall that one of our most difficult accomplishments was convincing EA not to cancel the project, because some of the EA old guard didn’t trust nor respect Will’s vision, didn’t “get” the idea of Dollhouse, didn’t think it would sell, wanted to inject it full of their old tried and trusted formula, and wanted to gut out the most interesting parts of the game (like the architecture tools). I think it’s a lucky fluke that The Sims ever shipped, and I hope EA has learned enough from their experience to trust the projects that Will is directly involved in, listen to what he’s been saying eloquently and consistently for years, and let something like The Sims happen again."

" I don’t think the lack of user created content is the only reason The Sims Online is a failure, but I think it’s an extremely important one that EA went out on a limb and promised, but never executed on. EA still hasn’t officially announced that they’re not going to let Maxis support user created content, but as far as I have been able to tell, they’ve whitewashed the original discussion groups where they made and discussed the promise. I realize that there are some difficult technical issues that have to be solved, in order to support user created content in an online game like The Sims Online. That’s why I wrote this proposal for SafeTMog, a tool that would enable users to safely create objects for The Sims Online that could not possibly crash the game: http://www.donhop kins.com/2004/02/05.html#a72"

"Unfortunately EA was not apparently interested in SafeTMog, which leads me to believe that they’re not interested in ever supporting user created content in The Sims Online. I don’t know why Maxis never executed on the plan they promised, but I do believe they disregarded and didn’t respect Will Wright’s opinion in this matter, which he clearly articulated. I don’t think the problem was a lack of resources – just the opposite. So much conservative money was bet on the project that it wasn’t allowed to innovate. I don’t believe it was ineptitude at the engineering or design level, but more likely at the executive management, resource allocation and marketing level. My impression is that some of the people in charge didn’t believe in Will’s vision, didn’t trust him, didn’t listen to him, didn’t do what he’s been saying for years, all along. I wish EA would have taken some of the millions of dollars they made from The Sims 1, and invested it back in fully developing The Sims Online, instead of sucking it out of Maxis to support the rest of EA."

TCL Team Interview

TCL Team Interview 03/13/2003 03:47 AM
Unlike Perl or Python, which are still maintained by their original authors (Larry Wall and Guido van Rossum), Tcl ownership has changed hands - Dr. John Ousterhout, who wrote Tcl while a professor at UC Berkeley, has moved on to other endeavors (although he does keep an eye on his creation), and others have stepped forward to not only maintain Tcl, but work on improving and extending it.

Several of the "core team", including the lead maintainer, Jeff "The Tcl Guy" Hobbs, Andreas Kupries, Donal Fellows and Mark Harrison, were kind enough to take some time to respond to some questions about a variety of topics via email. We start by asking Jeff about how the torch was passed...

People complain about PHP's lack of focus, particularly from a business perspective. Perhaps this is a model we can all learn from. After all TCL is extremely popular as an embedded software for many commercial applications.

phpBB Interview 02/14/2004 11:51 PM

Interview - James Atkinson , Founder of phpBB: An interesting interview with the guy who started the phpBB project. It's a good look into how a successful open-source project is run.

The biggest thing is to listen to your users. They drive your product forward and they help you support it. Secondly, you have to stick to your ideals. One of the reasons that phpBB is as successful as it is, compared to other "free" forum scripts, is because our project is very stable. We've never changed our name, we've never changed our leadership, and we've never changed our license. We've stuck to the ideals on which we originally founded phpBB, and this approach has given our community the perception that phpBB is strong and stable.

Interview with RU Sirius

Interview with RU Sirius 05/04/2004 03:17 PM
BB buddy Ken Goffman (aka RU Sirius) was recently interviewed by a transhumanist magazine.

"I don't embrace any belief systems. I'm a fuzzy believer. I might say that I 95% believe that humans will achieve a lifespan beyond the current biological limits; I 50% believe that this will work out well on a social-political level; I 95% believe that we will get really precise control over our minds and moods; I 60% believe that the future of most of humanity is pretty well fucked; I 10% believe that something very much like the singularity will actually occur; I 1% believe that it will happen in my lifetime."

He also talks a bit about his new book, "Counterculture Through the Ages," due out in November. Friends who have read it tell me that it's a brilliant, even scholarly, work. RU's star is absolutely rising again. Link
