Clearing Out From Under MyDoom

Clearing Out From Under MyDoom 01/27/2004 04:08 PM
I've been avoiding posting about the whole MyDoom virus/worm thing - since just about everyone knows about it. However, everyone also keeps submitting it, so just to get it out of the way, let's do a big MyDoom post that seems to hit on some of the less-well-covered aspects of the latest virus considered to be one of the biggest ever and likely to continue causing problems for months, if not years. By now, you've probably heard that it's designed to hit SCO's server with a denial of service attack, but what's much more interesting is how people have reacted to this news. Because the virus will attack SCO, some actually think it's a good thing, which is absolutely ridiculous. Slowing down the entire internet to make a stupid point about a lawsuit (where the company has been shooting itself in the foot all along) doesn't do much to help. Though, there is the amusing suggestion that maybe SCO released this themselves to generate sympathy and give them more excuses for not unveiling the disputed code. Still, the most interesting thing to me (which hasn't received much attention), is that this virus also was programmed to avoid being sent to federal agencies, military addresses, or security software companies. It sounds like they were hoping to stay a bit under the radar for a while - and somehow believed that this might allow it to spread further without getting recognized and stopped. In the meantime, I'm still wondering who the hell clicks on these attachments?

The Confusion is almost here. Amazon UK has a 1 April release date and Amazon US has a 13 April release date, but it's coming soon and I'm eager to continue reading the saga. The UK book jacket artwork is so much more colourful and interesting than the rather plain US edition. I've often wondered why there is such a tremendous difference between many US and UK book jacket designs, especially when there isn't really anything in the title or the design that might offend.

The confusion of the restrooms

The confusion of the restrooms 06/05/2005 11:56 PM

New York Times restaurant critic Frank Bruni has a funny article today entitled, Forget the Specials, Explain the Restroom. He talks about the confusion taking place in many restaurant bathrooms in New York City, including those at such high-end spots as Per Se and The Modern (the new restaurant at the MoMA). I can concur with many of his observations.

...I couldn't figure out how to trigger the electronic-eye sensors above the commodes, motion-detecting flushing mechanisms with enough of a delay that you were sometimes asked simply to trust in a cleansing aftermath to your departure. I've encountered religions with less daunting leaps of faith.

I couldn't figure out how to tell whether commodes were occupied. Neither, apparently, could anyone else, because whenever I was using one, someone in the communal area would rattle the door, not to mention my composure.

And I couldn't figure out why, in restaurant after restaurant, the attempt to relieve oneself turned out to be anything but a relief.

I always panic when, instead of simple labels like "Ladies" and "Gentlemen" or pictures of a man and a woman, they put those gender symbols on the door. I have to stop and think, "Which one does Austin Powers wear around his neck?" and then when I get the answer, I open the opposite door.

In the various parts of Europe I've visited, I've noticed two great things about the restrooms: 1. They put pictures on the door, which are easy to comprehend no matter what language you speak, 2. When you lock the door to your stall (which is really your own private compartment! Nice!), it rotates a little colored panel on the outside of the door to red. So when you enter a restroom, you look at the doors and see either red or green, and voila, you know which are occupied. New York restaurant designers, please take note!
