Are you happy now?

Are you happy now? 03/13/2003 03:27 PM

A 100-ton mech is the ultimate fishing machine. With upcoming titles like Steelhead Battalion and Cthulhu Karts, it's possible that Schadenfreude Interactive might be the next game industry juggernaut. Or they may be an April Fool's prank spotted in the pages of the April issue of Computer Games.

Lorcan Dempsey posted some astounding numbers to his blog yesterday. Emphasis below is mine. Prepare to be amazed.

WorldCat in Your Pocket

“WorldCat is our union catalogue of about 56 million bibliographic records, which represent approximately a billion holdings. It is about 50 gigabytes in MARC Communications (100+ gigabytes in XML) format and about 23 gigabytes compressed.

OCLC Research recently acquired a 24-node (48-cpu) Beowulf cluster with 96 Gigabytes of memory. According to my colleague Thom Hickey, whose team has been working on the machine, the cluster speeds up most bibliographic processing by about a factor of 30. This means that what might have taken a minute now takes two seconds, what might have taken an hour takes two minutes, what might have taken a month takes a day. For jobs that will fit entirely in memory (e.g. a `grep' of WorldCat) avoiding disk i/o gives another factor of about 20, reducing 1-hour jobs down to 6 seconds. We can 'frbrize< /a>' WorldCat on the cluster in about an hour.

WorldCat is also now more mobile. Thom has a 40 gig iPod which can accommodate WorldCat on its disk with room left for 5,000 song tracks. Now, you can't do much with the data on the iPod, but you can certainly carry it around. Again, it takes about an hour to get it on and off the iPod.” [Lorcan Dempsey’s Weblog, via It&rs quo;s All Good]

They’re all amazing numbers, but think about that iPod statement for a moment. What does it mean when a patron can carry around the whole, freaking WorldCat database? We’re not that far off from the introduction of the personal, mobile server in your pocket.

It’s like this: you get a slightly-scary physical symptom and you go and tell your doctor and she frowns and says “well, we better run some tests and make a date with a specialist”, and you go to the specialist and he works you over and looks at the tests and says “yeah, that’s a weird one, it happens sometimes, we don’t know why, it might happen again, it won’t hurt you, don’t worry about it.”

The issue was a misnamed Form variable. :)~ Saw it in the first 5 mintues this morning. A fresh head always helps.

.NET's code behind feature is great. I getting used to using it properly. One pet peeve. I learned VB purely from the Microsoft Documentation and a couple of books. The code samples are too complex in .Net's documentation. They need to provide smaller pieces of functionality. For example, to describe creating a web component, they try and take you through an entire application. Not very XPish of them. too much clutter. All I need for an example, is an example of the component and the component being embedded in the page. All the rest confuses the issue.

I got to Madrid okay yesterday, but, in the end, I couldn't get the modem connection to work properly... and in truth I didn't spend that much time with it (I fixed that a few minutes ago problems with a DHCP connection that required some fixed TCP/IP settings)...

I didn't find out about Gary Turner's b-day through Ryze, some classmates knock-off or even an email. I found out about it through RSS, which (I assume) he posted initially at Flickr and which then ricocheted into his blog.

So first of all - congrats to Gary (hopefully I'll get to meet him Sept. 13th), and congrats to Stewart and the team at Ludicorp for evolving Flickr into what it is today.

At first glance I thought of Flickr a predominanly an IM your photo kind of RIA. But it's much more than that.

The Calendaring, the PhotoRSS, the Fotonotes, a more coming - I'm sure.

Mailsmith Happy


Mailsmith Happy 02/10/2004 02:45 AM

I finally did it. I broke down and bought Mailsmith.

I used Mailsmith 1.0 and 1.5 when OS X was first released, because Apple's Mail.app was utterly horrible, and I received a free NFR copy because I was working for a small Macintosh news site at the time... and Bare Bones saw fit to give us a copy for review... so I reviewed it and fell in love (the review was never published).

But then, Apple's Mail got better with Jaguar, and even better with Panther, but this past week something in Mail broke. I don't know why or what and can't really explain the problems I'm having with Mail other than to say that after reading and deleting 4-5 emails, Mail.app crashes for no apparent reason. Happens every time I fire it up. And the Junk-mail filters just quit working, so now, I'm getting 100+ junk mails in my in-box... perhaps MyDoom is to blame for Mail.app crapping out on me...

So, I figured I'd switch back over to Mailsmith until I could figure out the problem with Mail.app. Within 5 minutes of using Mailsmith 1.5, I was in love again (and yes, I love BBEdit, and I think that's what drives my fascination with Mailsmith). So, I zipped over to Bare Bones.com to buy the latest version of Mailsmith, and guess what? It comes free with SpamSieve from Michael Tsai, too. Woohoo!

And now, I'm Mailsmith happy again, and not getting any more spam, and loving it. I guess the coolest part is that Mailsmith 2.x picked up all of my old 1.5 settings and preferences, and imported all of my email from Mail.app with no problems... And now I don't have to read HTML email anymore either. What a bonus.

Thanks Bare Bones.

And no, folks, I don't think $99 is too much to pay for a mail client, espectially when you work 'in your email client' as much as I do.

This makes more sense than just going after file sharing, but it still makes you wonder. There is this huge terrorist threat thing going on right now, and you would think that it might make more sense for the FBI to protect us from being blown up than to worry about people sharing music files that they can probably get on file sharing networks anyway.
