I feel for Google – Steve Jobs threatened to sue me, too.
In 2003, after I unveiled a prototype Linux desktop called Project Looking Glass *, Steve called my office to let me know the graphical effects were “stepping all over Apple’s IP.” (IP = Intellectual Property = patents, trademarks and copyrights.) If we moved forward to commercialize it, “I’ll just sue you.”
My response was simple. “St...
The EFF today post s the " iPhone Developer Program License Agreement ". Normally, they wouldn't be allowed to reproduce the document because of the terms of Apple's SDK but since NASA created an app, they used the Freedom of Information Act to obtain a copy for publishing. They note that it is more restrictive than before and parts of it may not be enfodceable.
They note their c...

New Brand, New Model – it tells the time, plain and simple…
The 4N-MVT01, by François Quentin
Limited edition of 16 in 18-carat white gold and 16 in platinum
Price: unknown
This is the first watch from a new brand known simply as “4N”. 4N – which stands for “4 numbers” and is a reference to the four digits on a digital counter which represents the tens of hours, hours, t...
The other-worldly events in “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” can be interpreted as satire on 19th-century advances in mathematics.
Complex numbers, a hybrid of the imaginary and the real, are the pinnacle of number systems.

I've been running my ZFS NAS for about a year. By now, I've upgraded many times, currently at snv132 from 101b, and I've enabled dedup for the storage pool. Here are a few notes and updated recommendations: Single-parity RAIDZ makes me nervous; dual-parity RAIDZ2 is better for integrity and a group of mirrors is better for speed. Of the 5x1.5GB Caviar Green drives I started with, I've...

The hackers who targeted Google and other companies in January targeted the source code management systems of companies, allowing them to siphon source code as well as modify it, according to a new report.
More importantly, systems that the companies used to develop and manage their source code have numerous security flaws that would allow easy compromise of a company’s intellectual property. Th...

Please excuse me while I exhibit another music-related letter, again courtesy of the near-bottomless Hard Rock Memorabilia vaults. Today's poetic gem was penned rather beautifully by the late Jimi Hendrix on an unknown date, to a girlfriend he affectionately called 'little girl'. It's all at once exceptionally sweet, gently encouraging and yet another example of the musician's effortless cool....

This year, the voting process for the Oscars has changed . Rather than indicating a single choice as they have done since 1946, members of the Academy will provide a first choice, a second choice, etc.. potentially ranking all 10 nominees for Best Picture if so desired. Some are speculating that this will affect the results. Some are writing really confusing articles about this change , with ver...
Of course, there’s still the problem of actually reading all this stuff. I think a laptop isn’t ideal, so I think the same of the iPad screen doing the same disservice to this stuff. It’s gotten to the point where if I see a single source in my reading list multiple times, like The Atlantic , I just get a subscription now. It’s like if I heard some great new music and bought it on vinyl. I don’...

Már régente is tapasztalhatták a rádión keresztüli időjárásjelentések naív hívői, hogy ha 'Pesten (ami Buda is) süt a nap, akkor országosan, és a paraszt egy [ein] sötét & buta zsírállat, ha úgy vet márciusban, hogy nem tudja, majd fagyos lesz a május vége, ámde a napfényből a Balcsira leömlő A Város népe meg mondjuk a tó partján a szemerkélő -permetező szürke délelőttben a meteoro...

The world's fastest sprint dog mushers awoke Thursday morning to a snow-globe scene that may have seemed like a blessing from above.
We've mentioned many times that the lack of snow near the Kennel has forced the Teams to truck up to the White Mountains for training. While that's been a hassle for them, it's a boon for you because you get to see some really nice scenery! In this video, Aliy narrates as her team mushes through a "burn" during sunset.

I follow a bunch of wristwatch blogs. This is the first watch I've ever seen that seemed worth noting. This is easily the most insane "digital" watch, ever. I'm not sure if this is the sort of thing that Douglas Adams would have loved or lampooned.

Baselworld 2010: 4N (New Brand) 4N-MVT01 (Model)
Alice in Wonderland considered as a metaphor for critiquing the "new math" of the era. The author is getting a PhD in English lit, so there may be some actual primary evidence to support her theory.

Before I get on a plane, I use Instapaper to load a ton of web sites into my Kindle, which I can then read comfortably while disconnected. Works very well.
