Well, the guy of Watson fame (or is it scandal?) seems to be working on something promising. It's called Sandvox and it should be full of Cocoa-y goodness. I've been meaning to get in contact with him and see if it would be possible for it to include "Site management" features that are compatable with Dreamweaver, ie. check-outs/check-ins, resource lists, etc.

Then I could use that to manage sites. Honestly, who let Macromedia near a compiler? (Or interface design tool?)

here's a comment about it:

http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/network/2005/07/29 /cjdate.html?page=5

This is the man who brought us the mathematically impossible 6.5 mile 802.11 link with a passive repeater. The repeater that he never showed to anybody. He also shows us an idealistic world of a community cable and telephone company that nobody's ever seemed to find evidence of.

Saying that, when it comes to technology at least, he is speculative is something of an understatement. Take what he says with an extremely large grain of salt.

The obvious final outcome here is that people are going to start forming grassroots wireless networks on a metropolitan area level, and interconnecting these networks through encrypted tunnels through standard ISPs. It'll start by people getting access points to access metropolitan area services at high bandwidth, something like Mesh would be used to provide the network infrastructure, and eventually, this will end up as an ad-hoc wireless internet. Obviously, the software is going to have to evolve to be very scalable and have acceptable performance, but what we will be left with is a truly free network by construction (decentralization), even if we can't include everyone in the middle of nowhere. People will first use it for gaming and sharing media, but businesses will jump at the opportunity to get access to a targeted metropolitan network, and TV affiliates might find it an attractive method of reaching local viewers. Even if the connections outside the MAN are poor, most cities and towns would surely find good uses for high speed local networks. As these networks grow, they will become more and more interconnected, and hopefully replace the centralized internet we have today for all but the longest hops. The killer (commercial) application for this is obviously going to be video and local services. To get TV affiliates interested, though, there would need to be a proven audience, and p2p filesharing and low-lag gaming is going to be the driving force for this adoption. Once the infrastructure is in place and companies can get free high-speed access to customers in their area, a huge new market for broadband services will open up, along with the advertising possibilities targeted at local customers. The rest is the hardware; current wireless routers have insufficient range and bandwidth to make starting such a network on a large scale viable. We would need a cheap, high bandwidth, and long(er) range solution to get this party really started. Maybe in 5-10 years that kind of technology will be available, and then this ad-hoc network will almost create itself. I really find it hard to believe that anyone is really capable of preventing this from happening at this point. We have the will, we have the communication capability, we have the ingenious coders and open source community, I'd say it's pretty much a done deal. All we need is the obvious hardware solution to make it all a reality.

If you believe the fundamental purpose of the patent system is to promote innovation for the advancement of society as a whole, then it should be obvious that not only does the current system not work, but it does the exact opposite. This is not unique to software patents, but they are one of the grosser examples, and started us down the slippery slope which has lead to business model patents and even storyline patents

If you think the purpose of patents is to enrich a few, at the expense of innovation and the population at large, then it obviously works.

Without the ability to shield innovation through patents, the software industry would have less reason to research and advance, and less means to support its constituents.

This is demonstrably false. Look at all the software innovation which happened before software was patentable. Now stop and think if every one of the technologies underlying modern computers and the Internet had been patented. Do you really think that, if every bit of software had been patented since 1960, there would have been more innovation ? The the PC and the Internet would be better than they are today ?

Tim Berners-Lee recently posed the question (paraphrased) "what would the Internet be like today if I had patented http ?"

( I can't find the exact quote, but here's a link that conveys the general idea http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/wlg/1390 )

I hope it is obvious that the end result would have been something much less useful than what we have now.

Or how about the point of view of another software innovator John Carmack

Actually, I do honestly believe the system is inherently flawed, not just that it is administered poorly.

Damn near every product or idea of value has clear, traceable roots to things that have gone before, which a lawyer can easily argue are within claims filed with patents. If every innovation was protected by patent, and every product actually paid full heed to all the patents that could lay claim to it, you would basically not be able to build anything without spending far, far more time tracking down who you need to pay licensing fees to than you spend producing things of value. If a law looks absurd when applied with perfect enforcement, it isn't a good law.

Relatively few great things would disappear without patent protection. Would I stop trying to come up with innovative software? Would Intel stop trying to come up with innovative hardware? There are probably some valid cases in drug research, but I contend that most of what drives the economy takes a net negative effect from the patent system. For large companies, it is a parasitic legal cost to keep a competitive set of trading cards. For small companies, it is a sword of Damoclese hanging over their heads.

Now stop and think. The above or two people who are the quintessential 'lone innovators' that the patent system is supposed to protect.

And you can't do the same with Windows Messenger? Well not the drag-to-trash part. But you can ignore it just the same. If you need to use it, it's easy to find. If you don't need to.. don't.

It actively pops up in the corner and demands your attention, then stays in the system tray until you figure out how to disable it (double-click, click cancel, click OK to confirm you really want to cancel, find the options in one of the menus, go to the third tab, uncheck the box - that's from memory, so I might be slightly off, but it's something like that).

Windows Messenger has never just automatically launched for me.

That's strange. It pops up automatically on every WinXP system I've ever installed, and on the first login whenever a new profile is created on an existing system.

Windows Messenger also doesn't deal with advertisements. It's completely different (currently) from MSN Messenger which you have to go and download independently of the operating system.

I've heard there's a difference and I've seen both; to be honest I'm not sure which one pops up automatically on a fresh installation, but whichever one it is does prompt you to log in with (or sign up for) an MSN account.

And I've used it with Jabber as well, and from recent developments, MS might be looking to make that AIM thing work too.

That was Yahoo, not AIM, and I don't think they have that working yet. I'd never heard of using Windows Messenger with Jabber, but from what I can tell it requires a third-party plug-in to make that work (blog entry).

Was the whole milk still in beta? Did the newpaper leverage you as a development asset? Is that lawn-site developed with a mashup of scalable syndicated fertilizer api's? I'm not sure you are fully web 2.0 compliant yet. I believe there is still a ghost of logical, reasoning thought floating around in there.

Here, read this site six times and publish a podcast of your thoughts that I can find through deli.cio.us in the morning.

I'm not sure. I know I rarely use anything except writer, so maybe having a writer lite edition as well as the whole suite.

Seems like Ruby on Rails is competing for web apps too - lots of comparisons are floating around out there. Some large sites are converting over, too, like Derek Siver's "CD Baby" - he blogged on the conversion here.

I've certainly found Rails to be a good fit with interfacing with a Jabber PostgreSQL backend. Good times!

I've heard the phrase "web 2.0" so many times it's not funny. What is it exactly?

Let's see, this looks like a useful page:

we formulated our sense of Web 2.0 by example:

Web 1.0 --> Web 2.0
DoubleClick --> Google AdSense
Ofoto --> Flickr
Akamai --> BitTorrent
mp3.com --> Napster
Britannica Online --> Wikipedia
personal websites --> blogging
evite --> upcoming.org and EVDB
domain name speculation --> search engine optimization
page views --> cost per click
screen scraping --> web services
publishing --> participation
content management systems --> wikis
directories (taxonomy) --> tagging ("folksonomy")
stickiness --> syndication

It seems like a vague way of saying that Google is successful, people like blogs and other social networking systems, and that there's a lot of hype around AJAX. What a load of crap.

Well, a quick look on everybody's favorite search engine reveals this http://conferences.oreillynet.com/cs/os2003/view/e _spkr/1627. It appears he works for Novell and is more of a manager than an hard-core programmer.

Whether he's as big a blowhard as ESR remains to be seen.

I don't think you get to hit me over the head:

XMLHttpRequest is only one of the methods of accomplishing asynchronous communication. A hidden IFrame is another technique (which Google, the master of this sort of thing uses -- or so I hear).

The IFrame doens't have to use XML, right? Sometime it does, but it doesn't have to.

So XML looks entirely optional.

Here's a reference: http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/javascript/2002/02 /08/iframe.html

That's why I think the 'X' in XML is pure, masturbatory acronaming.

Do you mean "Flash" as in "SWF"? Because: swf is a stanadrd. Ming saving as SWF should be an entirely open format. Now, the fact that gplflash is still in its infancy is a problem, but the format itself is open.

And while he happens to be right in this case, I don't think very highly of him.
[...]
Drepper however has repeatedly refused to include them (strlcpy/strlcat) because they work and they make it too easy to not code buffer overflows (no this is not a joke).

While Ulrich has his faults, the above is completely false. The reason they weren't accepted into glibc was IIRC:
1) They are non-std. and did not have a usable standard like definition apart from the implementation and had no tests (Solaris implemented them slightly differently, for example, and Input Validation in C and C++ from oreilly also screwed it up -- and that was written by people selling a Secure codeing in C book).
2) It doesn't solve the problem better than asprintf() which had been around for years (although also non-standard), as you still have problems with truncation (and both APIs have the problem of requiring the programer to correctly pass around the meta data about the string -- Ie. it's size/length).
3) Given the above, and the fact the implementation is "free" then anyone wanting to use them can just include the source in their apps. and rely on autoconf (and they'll also be guaranteed to have the "correct" implementation).

You forgot OpenOffice

Good point. I had no trouble installing and using the 4.8, 4.9 and 4.10 Free BSD O/S. It was for personal use & just to see ... Never could get a functioning system out of the 5.x series. It is silly for FreeBSD to be getting harder to istall while Debian has gotten trivially easy.

However, PC-BSD works quite well, but with limited software installation, unless one goes to the ports. The base is OK for someone who just wants to surf and e-mail. Getting OO installed is trickier. It got a good review from Dru Lavigne also here. There's a fresh beta, 0.8 just released.

There's also Desktop BSD over here, which I have not tried as there seem to be problems with installation on boxes with an Athlon CPU. When they get that fixed ... we'll see.

You mean like IronPython: Python on the .NET Framework? MS frequently shows up at F/OSS and Linux conferences, in addition to MacWorld & conferences arounf another vendors' products.

Wow, nobody here has even suggested the most logical place to start: by learning the relational model, the only complete theoretical model for data manipulation and retrieval. (The suggestions to "use MySQL" are frightening, to say the least).

Or maybe they just assume since you are CS, you understand the RM? I've been burned several times making that assumption. So here's my advice, buy this book and master the content within. I choose that one because 1) Chris Date is one of the few people who actually has a deep understanding of the RM 2) it's short (240 pages) 3) it's well-written (as is all of Date's stuff) and 4) it's on O'Reilly which is comforting to people who are afraid of theory books (in fact I was surprised to see O'reilly pick up a book that wasn't about "hacks" or a "cookbook", kudos, we need more books that teach principles that can be applied to any product).

Only then should you proceed to learning any particular product (and yes, Oracle is just a product, not a "technology", or a religion for that matter).

Perhaps running apache on windows NT 4.0 on DEC Alpha, like this guy here:

Yes, apparently there are issues with SP2 only. No surprise there. Supposedly Captive is no longer under active development since it works well enough for pre-SP2 machines.

I just found a post from Jan saying the following:

"Anyway Captive NTFS itself is already dead as Linux-NTFS may have finally got the read/write support (not tested myself) and people generally do not differentiate products as long as they work in 99% of cases, either in Linux-NTFS or Captive case. Both projects have that 1% due to different
reasons. I still think Captive would be useful as generic MS-Windows drivers compatibility layer but there is currently no target market for it."

He appears to be wrong about full read/write support according to the official NTFS site. They still say, relative to the new FUSE ntfsmount system, that its functionality for writing is dependent on the NTFS kernel mods and they are STILL read-only. I may have interpreted this wrong - it doesn't seem like anybody involved can give a straight answer to the simple question "Can you read and write files to the NTFS volume from user space programs and utilities?" - but it doesn't look good.

An article here: http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/wlg/6261 talks about the SP2 problem and gives workarounds.

From that article it seems the issues really aren't about SP2 "breaking" Captive - it's more that it just breaks Captive's ability to find the driver files. The read/write aspect still works once you have the XP files which the workarounds solve.

Also from some of the posts I've just seen in various pages via my Google search, I'd say Captive is not a "fire up and forget" approach to reading NTFS from Linux - sometimes it just doesn't work, apparently.

The NTFS for Linux utility that costs $70 from Paragon Software is beginning to look like the only way to go, since the NTFS project has only three people working on it in their spare time and they have absolutely no idea when write support will be included. They promise to do it, but it could be another five years...

They are called Propellerhead (without the trailing 's') and there is also a small note over at O'Reilly. d-lusion is considering to release the source code and maybe a Linux version. There is a discontinued open source project, called Reborn.

Because neither the article nor the summary make it clear, Michal Zalewski is a Polish author and hacker who has a book named Silence on the Wire: A Field Guide to Passive Reconnaissance and Indirect Attacks published by No Starch Press and sold at your favorite bookstores.

O'Reilly has an online profile of Michal:

Michal Zalewski is a security researcher who has worked on topics ranging from hardware and OS design principles to networking. He has published research on many security topics and has worked for the past eight years in the InfoSec field for a number of reputable companies, including two major telecommunications firms.

Oh yeah - those poor slimebag weasels aren't being allowed to scam people.

The threat of those 'taxes' (to use your incorrect politically-charged terminolgy) stops the weasels, and anyone else who wants to have the same lame business plan.

But I just blew my last mod point.

43 folders just ran an article about making one big text file, which followed up on an O'Reilly post on the same topic. Bottom line is that one thing all productive geeks share is that they stay organized by just adding stuff to a plain text file. It is a good life hack, which is intrinsically cross-platform & easy to use & small.

This is obviously not about the PHP Language itself as you are definitely looking at your alternative as better... While I can program java, I can program python, etc etc... I use PHP for the web, and in an enterprise environment as that! You claim PHP is the root of all evil, take a look at an operating system, whose job is it to make sure that any type of security whole is plugged? Yours. Next lets talk about scalability, PHP is highly scalable as long as you understand the structure and logic of the language, which is not like your current language. That is why it bugs you. Currently I have around 30 files that operate 70 websites (and no this is a single set they are not mirrored on all the sites). Pretty much they are mainly objects and a few controllers which the user can override the global scope in site of their local scope for pages. The configuration is easy and sql injections can happen in just about any language. Programming for the web I can pretty much show you vunrible applications everywhere. This is not just a PHP thing. How about the infamous buffer overflows with Java? Had that one happen? This thread is mainly all opinionated with no factoral history. And if you are going to call out something as huge security risks without providing a fact then you are just blowing steam up everyone for no reason. Get a job, learn more about secure computing, and stop trying to advocate other languages as better than this or that when it is simple opinionated with out any benchmarks, security advisories, references. Now heres my turn. Java has security problems because people code them in according to your philosophy, as for the tutorial on writing secure php code... well here is one for java: http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-12-1998/jw-1 2-securityrules.html Meanwhile here are the latest records for programming languages (latest versions) php: http://secunia.com/product/3919/ asp.net: http://secunia.com/product/2173/ java jdk: http://secunia.com/product/4621/ j2ee: http://secunia.com/product/2644/ python: http://secunia.com/product/4604/ As for scalability : http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/2003/10/15/php_ scalability.html http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/wlg/5155 there are numerous resources on the net on writing secure code for all programming languages, everything you mentioned in this entire "rant" is worthless and doesn't do anyone any good. Please go crawl back in your hole.

Here's a description - no video yet...

http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/wlg/7558

Miguel's talk was definitely a good choice for the closing timeslot. He talked about numerous happenings at Novell, from their efforts to move all employees off Windows / MS Office onto Linux / OpenOffice.org, to several new X technologies that impressed the heck out of me.

Novell currently has some 5500 employees, and has already managed to move all of them over to OO.o. They are also 50% finished with moving every PC to single-boot linux, and expect to reach 80% by November. In the mean time, it sounds like many employees still multi-boot.

Eating their own dog food is one thing, but Novell still needs to work on the Linux desktop to increase its mass appeal. To this end, they have considerably hardened the Mono VM (a clone of Microsoft's .NET VM), to the point that it can now withstand weeks of continuous heavy load without erroring or crashing. From this point, they are working in two directions: making all user hardware Just Work, and implementing all missing desktop applications in Mono languages, such as C# and Python (via IronPython). It sounded like they are also putting some effort into convincing Windows ISVs to migrate to Mono.

They've been working on useability issues in Gnome as well; Novell likes to video users with three simultaneous camera angles (face, hands, and monitor), show the videos to the developers, and watch their mental models get massively readjusted to match reality (well, more closely, at least).

Miguel also showed off some individual technologies, like two-way iPod sync, multi-hop directory sync, and so on; some of these were actually ports of old-world Novell technologies to pure Mono code. He bragged that with Beagle they managed to be the first out the door with desktop search, though only by a mere 6 hours.

Nearing the end of his talk, Miguel showed off some of the amazing changes happening to X these days. The Cairo compositing / rendering model (similar to the PDF rendering model) is now available for X, and can be accelerated in OpenGL using Glitz and XRENDER. Ugly hacks for window transparency and other such effects are no more.

X itself can run on top of OpenGL using the Xgl server, which is nearly complete. Xgl comes with a Composition Manager, which allows all sorts of composeable eye candy and special effects; Miguel showed off some silly-but-cool wobbling window effects based on this.

Finally, since Xgl has the full power of OpenGL behind it, all of the virtual desktops are wrapped around a cube that is just dragged to show the desired desktop. It's even possible to start a movie playing, drag the window halfway across the boundary between desktops, rotate the desktop cube through 45 degrees, and then watch the movie, now split across the border and in correct perspective across each face -- without any visible rendering issues.

All in all, a very cool talk, and a great way to close out this year's OSCON.

He looks awfully cheery for having no body and a set of crap headphones, doesn't he?

I know i'll get modded down for this, but ontopic: That Darwinbuild stuff looks pretty handy for say, upgrades in time without having to wait for Apple to stream then in via OS updates like they did with Server X.3.X. Also, i hope they next step is to allow X apps to run outside of the X11 environment, but at least semi natively. I don't really like the current solution of having to have 23489 apps running inside X11.app when you can inadvertently kill them all off with one errant Fruit+Q.

In addition to taking the opportunity to shamelessly plug my book, I've posted a detailed response on the O'Reilly Developer Weblogs site, touching on using XSLT, VBA, Perl, Ruby, and more to get those Word docs into shape.

Yes, that's right folks. Because I'm buying their kids a laptop. Me and my closest friends, geographically speaking. Our taxes are buying a bunch of kids that I don't have equipment that will be obsolete real soon which most of them will never know how to truly use. Except as email and chat hardware of course.

So don't worry about it! Move to Georgia, specifically Cobb County. Sure, we'll force your kids to listen to Creationism being equated to Natural Selection, but they'll be hearing it from an mp3 on their very own iBooks!

Sorry, your invitation is over here.

Too few paying customers is the critical problem. Barely a hundred this year and fewer than that last year. Low attendance is why there isn't an O'Reilly Mac OS X Conference this year either.

Blame the internet, the revived summertime WWDC, the out-of-the-ordinary location (Dearborn, MI), whatever.

Another decent overview is available at O'Reilly.

2000's lossy mode is superior to jpg as well.

If I am not mistaken, I think .NET 2.0 was pulled (or at least significantly scaled back)and would be included as a later stand alone addition/download (a la WinFS).

XAML, if you want to do a little reading for fun, there is a good review of it that concludes:

Examined superficially, XAML tags have many of the features of traditional Web standards like HTML, as well as those of newer Web approaches like Mozilla's XUL. Alas, it lacks proper CSS stylesheet support. Examined more deeply, however, XAML tags reuse, reinvent, and renew many standard idioms from the software development world in a highly integrated way.

There are also people out there who see XAML as just a proprietary XML and MS will try to do to XML what they did with JScript/JavaScript

That doesn't count loads of other features, like the explorer, IE 7, a ton of security features, better search, better web services through Indigo (try doing web services with PHP now - I've done it, and it's such a pain that it's not really worth it. Microsoft nailed web services in 2002, and the new stuff is even better!).

I have alway been happy with SOAP/XML and it seems like they are doing pretty well Also, it seems like Indigo isn't what it used to be, or at least not yet. We also do not know how these new services will affect other internet users, presumably they will be a Vista only feature and in that case, how many developers will fully embrace them with MS's current adoption rate for XP. Will the Vista adoption rate be better or worse? One could argue not as good due to the increased system requirements for the "full" Vista experience, compared to the 98/2000 upgrade path. We went from 66MHz/16MB/225MB to 133MHz/64MB/2GB to "current processor, current computer". From that I guess 2GHz/512MB-1GB/64MB-128MB-256 VRAM, (hard drive space is not an issue anymore) That is quite an increase in specs, though I admit that is extrapolation from this:

Will my PC run Vista? That depends on how recently you bought it. Microsoft Allchin said in an April interview that he expects Vista will need about 512MB of memory and "today's level" of processor. The ability to display all the fancy new graphics will depend on what type of graphics card one has. On some older machines, the graphics may look similar to today's Windows.

Apple is doing the slapdash hacks, and Microsoft leads the way in beautifully architected software.

Now you are just tossing out some flamebait. "Slapdash hacks" is a disservice to the wonderful integretion of OOS into OS X. Also OS X has been lauded by many (I hate to do this, but this was the best all-in-one collection I could find without searching/cutting/pasting all night. This is only slightly bigger than the attention Apple was given for Panther.

Also, MS has been accused of many, many things, but has never been accused of creating "beautifully architected software". Seriously, XP SP2 took some important steps, but I am not going to say any such words until I see a final p

Done.

I hope Microsoft has their virtual earth rotating in the right direction this time.
