I've been DJing for nine years, and have covered the progression of house music during that span. (Hope y'all have RealPlayer) Everything from early Chicago House to Disco House to DEEP House to Booty/Ghetto House to Hard Techno House. Oh yeah, and some Tech-Step Jungle.

Check them out. I'd hate for someone to fall into the mass-produced superstar (Bad Boy Bill, DJ Skribble, etc.) DJ mixes, when there's good small-name talent floating around.

In some situations you do need that many consoles, and an actual command center. I don't know what the situation is here, but take a look at these pics from FermiLab control rooms. They're laid out nice.

CDF control room right

The computers and such are stored in the next room and the rooms below. There are ~ 30 monitors on the walls, plus desks for laptops to plug in. Obviously you aren't doing particle collisions, but it is a really nice setup. Usually a staff of 4, but can support 10 or so if needed.

You may laugh at the idea, but that is exactly what we did here - and the old 60's era soda machine now runs a web server - and it's got a window, a biohazard logo, and while it's missing the neon lights, those might be added later. I must say, that was one hell of a project. The biggest problem with it so far? It is damn near impossible to get the key to the machine duplicated.

If it seems down, it's probably not its fault - there have been connectivity problems in the office where it lives this morning, I am heading in to work on it right now.

a friend of mine had his computer lock up and noticed that his hard drive was in flames, apparently due to faulty wiring in the pcb.

http://www.ews.uiuc.edu/~atwell/toast/

it didn't hurt anything other than the power supply (apparently overloaded from the short), but i'm told it was a harrowing experience.

there's no real-time anything involved here.

But there ARE real-time actual 3D holographic worlds used in research and development, that a person can walk through as if it were a real world. The National Center for Supercomputing Applications has a fascinating demonstration of this called the CAVE.

The article presents a false dichotomy. On the one hand, it talks about the "technology-friendly" who adhere to the "Declaration of Independence of Cyberspace" (sic), and claim that "the Internet is a new, unique thing that requires its own special laws". On the other hand, it has "cyberskeptics" who believe "something happening online shouldn't be treated any differently by the law".

In fact, the "Cyberspace Declaration of Independence" was written in response to the Telecom Reform Act, as a reaction to attempts to burden the online world with extra legislation that enforces distinctions. I believe the declaration's author, along with most readers of Slashdot, would agree with the idea that online activity generally suffers from specific laws.

The "cyber" world, just like the real world, should be governed by fair principles (such as those of the US constitution) justly applied. The point, which is totally missed by the author of this article, is that our legal system is groaning under the weight of regulations pandering to special interests, and that the good of the people comes off second best.

Here's an example of the versatility offered by the Powerbook/iBook/OS X combination. I can run my shell scripts, PHP and Perl while retaining a GREAT UI and use my favorite editor, BBedit. I can graphically monitor my remote Unix systems and database server WITH X11 forwarding (I have XDarwin and Gnome running alongside the Aqua UI). And, I've added virtual desktops to the Aqua desktop. It's a good development platform.

Look at Paul Rajlich's VR model of his home for his CAVE here.

In fact, it's not very tough designing something like that. Anybody who's tried designing games or game levels, even simple ones would know how easy this is.

For example, look at NeHe's simple 3d engine demo - you could easily build any structure you want for one of these, with sufficient skill modeling your house wouldn't be any more difficult than mapping a few co-ordinates. It'd be cooler still if you could import some format like DXF or VRML or the like into a suitable map.

I've owned my Powerbook G4 667MHz since November 2001. In March 2002, the paint on the unit began to bubble and flake-off.....like Herpes vesicles. The machine also began to generate a lot more heat than it did upon purchase. The battery life dwindled from a typical 3 hours down to 1.25 hours on a full-charge. The Powerbook's fan was always on. This was unacceptable for a $3200 laptop.

It took me a month of arguing with Apple and documenting my problem with photos before they would replace my defective unit. They denied any knowledge of widespread paint/durability problems, despite the existence of companies like TiPaint.com that sell touch-up paint for the Tibook. Touch-up paint for a laptop?!? That's absurd. Anyhow, my unit went in for a massive overhaul. They essentially gutted my machine and placed it in a new case, replaced the battery, fan and logic board. It took several weeks, since the critical parts were back-ordered (signs of a more widespread problem). I really wanted a replacement because my unit was a lemon. Instead, they "repair" it.... and create more problems. The paint is beginning to flake again, and I have reason to believe that the processor is not attached to the heatsink (constant fan, paint falling off, poor heat dissipation).

Problem is, us Mac users are SO dependent upon our machines for our respective livelihoods, that being without our computer for another repair of indefinite-length is killer. Having to fight with Apple to even get to the repair stage is a big enough deterrent for most users, reducing us to using crippled machines out of desperation.... If y'all haven't seen the infamous TiBook paint photos, hit up:

Cayman GatorBox CS.

I've got one of these (althout I'm not sure its the CS model)...

Can you provide any links, software, or help in using it? Last time I checked out Cayman's site (a while ago, admittedly) they weren't much help. :-(

Netopia bought out Cayman a while back. Firmware updates and utility software for legacy products were on their website just a few months ago, but they're gone now. Email me if you want me to send the files (warning: you'll need a Mac with LocalTalk ports to do anything with them).

You might find these pages useful for setting up your GatorBox:

What other industry can you get a job in Alaska or Hawaii doing the same thing? You might even end up inventing the next Mosaic out in the cornfields. Gotta love them pork-barrel politics!

Hadn't seen that one; thanks. It's a nice myth-buster that sort of tells you what Marc didn't do, although I find it a little unsatisfying that it doesn't really tell you what he did do, other than all that 'bad stuff'. (For example, what code *did* he write within Mosaic, and to what degree did he set the direction of the software development; his role as software "architect" and, ultimately, visionary? Didn't Marc and Eric Bina add the tag, for example? Eric Bina may have written a lot of the code, but Marc was hardly incompetent: "'Marc always had the intent to get out of programming,' said Bina, 'which was funny because he was so good at it.'" )

All I remember firsthand from that particular period about Marc was reading a bunch of USENET posts about content vs. presentation in 1994. (A battle for display-independence that he clearly eventually lost.) My impression of him at the time was that he was responsible for the Mosaic browser's development and setting its technical direction. The GQ article neither says that nor quite denies it, but that's the basis on which I claim that Jim Clark wasn't the visionary and Marc was just a hanger-on, the original poster's claim.

--LP

I bet browsers did run really well on your 1992 workstations, since the first graphical browser wasn't released until late 1993.
Have you tried running lynx, or for that matter Mosaic 1.0 on your Zaurus? It might run a little snappier..

Common Gateway Interface (CGI) is a specific interface between web server and code. This interface relies on a "shelling" style system.

PHP does not use CGI neither does ASP. By your own statement you state "A set of rules that describe how a Web Server communicates with another piece of software on the same machine..." oblivious to the fact that neither ASP, PHP or any of the modern decent languages comply with these "rules".

Both environments utilise intstructions within the HTML code that are recognised and subsequently executed by interpreters often loaded in the web server application space.

They DO NOT rely on environment variables, command lines and input/output files all of which are part of the CGI standard. CGI is quite rightly on it's last legs because shelling out to executables is both a security risk and processor intensive.

Perhaps you should be more careful what you are basing your ignorant comments on.

...Software's locked state is also described as its "executable" format. Executable software is commonly sold in stores and available commercially. Executable software accompanies binary code also known as machine code.

What exactly was the difference again between executable software and binary code?

...The GPL is one of the most uniquely restrictive product agreements in the technology industry. As expected, the controversy of the GPL is rooted in the language of its license.

All proprietary licenses that I've ever seen place restrictions on how a user may use the software. The GPL contains no such restrictions. The GPL only resticts the way in which he can redistribute a modified version of the software, an activity expressly prohibited by proprietary licenses. Simply put, any claim that the GPL is more restrictive than proprietary licenses is laughably incorrect.

...In 1989, Stallman decided that the open source community should be more organized and founded the Free Software Foundation (FSF). FSF and Stallman evolved the open source discussion into an advocacy group, promoting the idea that all software should be free.

According to the Open Source Initiative, "the 'open source' label itself came out of a strategy session held on February 3rd 1998," in reaction to "Netscape's accouncements that it planned to give away the source of its browser." The term's purpose was "to dump the confrontational attitude that has been associated with 'free software' in the past and sell the idea strictly on the same pragmatic, business-case grounds that motivated Netscape." The attempt to paint the FSF as a radical offshoot of the open source movement is completely without factual basis.

FSF became well known for its position of free software as well as its radical ideas to end patents on inventions.

The FSF has expressed no position on the patenting of inventions, in general, but only on the patenting of software.

Jim Clark, the founder of computer maker Silicon Graphics and expert on UNIX standards, founded Netscape, and set out to compete directly with the public domain product Mosaic.

According the NCSA's Procedures for Licensing NCSA Mosaic, "the software is not public domain, freeware or shareware." But then, we already knew that...

...Mosaic was an open source product and could be downloaded for free by individuals and companies wishing to use the Internet for internal communications. Through a commercial partner, Spyglass, NCSA began widely licensing Mosaic to computer companies including IBM, DEC, AT&T, and NEC.

If it required a commercial partner to do this licensing, then clearly it wasn't even open source (as the term came to mean, when it was coined five years later), much less in the public domain!

At this point, I get tired of counting. This paper allegedly "details the complex issues surrounding open source," but fails to demonstrate even the most basic understanding of the term itself, competing licensing models, or the technology involved. It is, quite simply, not worthy of any serious consideration.

In all fairness, it's taken Microsoft from 1995-2002 to produce their high quality Internet Explorer based on NCSA Mosaic's code. That's what, 7.5 years?

From the NewZilla FAQ:

"The code name for the product that became Netscape Navigator, and later Netscape Communicator. The name was derived from the fact that the first Netscape Navigator was intended to be the "Mosaic killer." Mosaic was the first graphical web browser and quite popular during its time."

The Mosaic it's refering to is NCSA Mosaic: the first web browser. Some of it's principal developers went on to form Netscape Communications Corporation.

For us slackers, here's a quicker read.

This is not a pipe.

Unfortunately, fissionable stuff is running out just as quickly as burnable.

True, since neither one is running out any time soon.

Breeder reactors could keep us going for millenia, and there's enough natural gas in the form of gas hydrates in the deep oceans to last several hundred years at least.

For Mr. Cite-Geek below,

Nuclear Fuel:
"Known uranium reserves are sufficient to supply the world's needs for many centuries"

"The use of
breeder reactors could extend the availibility of nuclear fission resources another 100,000 years."

Gas hydrates:

[Two regions off the Carolinas] contain more than 70 times the 1989 gas consumption of the United States

"Worldwide, estimates of the natural gas potential of methane hydrates approach 400 million trillion cubic feet -- a staggering figure compared to the 5,000 trillion cubic feet that make up the world's currently known gas reserves.

Let's see YOUR cites, Greenie.

Already done. The software is called VisIT, from the good folks at the University of Illinois, the same campus that has developed a veritable shite load of things for the internet/mac, like Fetch (FTP), and a telnet client.

bandwith by dividing a channel into accesses* on some other dimension (code-division, time-division, etc, spatial-division, etc). But those divisions are limited within their own scope in ways similar to the bandwidth limits of radio-frequency division, and should be regulated in exactly the same way to prevent overlap and interference.

Interference is not noise (it is another signal). That is one of the keys to understanding that the transport capacity of wireless networks increases with the number of nodes, and can get very close to O(nodes). Check out this paper.

Mind you, we're not talking about the old school single-transmitter multiple receiver model, but a wireless network of transmitting/receiving nodes.

Saying that wireless bandwidth is limited is like saying that the total bandwidth of the Internet was 1.544 Mbps when no one used links faster than T-1's. But is is actually more than that when you realize that interference is not noise.

These are the three things to consider in your situation. College seems to be a good option, but you have to pick the right major. At my school [uiuc.edu], the CS program is purely software development. There is no instruction in shell scripting, Perl, or anything except Java (intro course) and C/C++. This does not provide a good background for a sysadmin by itself.

OTOH, we have the NCSA [ncsa.uiuc.edu] here, which provides many great opportunities. They don't offer a lot of jobs for students, but if you keep a close watch on the job listings, you can find one. I'm working on a project [oscar.sf.net] learning a lot about real sysadmin tasks, cluster admin, and software development. All this while learning how to really program in shell and Perl better than any CS class here ever taught me any other language.

Take my advice: go to college and work while you're there.

From what I've gleaned so far we know the following:

- QE is said to need a "nVidia: GeForce2MX, GeForce3, GeForce4 Ti, GeForce4 or GeForce4MX. ATI: any AGP Radeon card. 32MB VRAM recommended for optimum performance."

- The wording on the above statement may or may not be read as "requires", depending on whom you ask.

- The tech involved in such a feat described (single pipeline of composited video) is really advanced and interesting, and raises questions; i.e. what does it mean for OS X when the entire drawing system is offloaded to custom chips? (or on a completely side note: what does it mean when you have standardized hardware-accel. video for your OS, and the Finder is now utterly replaceable? Things like this?)

- The tech involved in QE may have come from Raycer, a company Apple acquired in early 2000. Raycer developed high-performance 3D visualization solutions using OpenGL. Apple consequently has a patent (lost the #, sorry) on vague things like 'large-scale grid transformations' (paraphrasing).

- A lot of us iBook owners, and other Rage128-based Mac owners, would like to know if QE will work partially, or at all, on this hardware.

So who can comment intelligently on what's happening here?

One of the difficulties with getting a successful community network off the ground is the amount of buy-in that you could get from the general population. Many projects were started by early technology adopters who "knew" that widespread capacity and the early development of resouces would benefit the community, but if a broad base of support did not come together then it would be difficult for those individuals to sustain. I co-authored an early study of the expression of community networks through the web and directed a community-funded project as well, Aurora Online.

While we had buy-in from community leaders and early adopters, the rate of technology adoption by "real people" was always too slow to help us build critical mass outside of certain key segments (education, government, but not business in this manufacturing town). Involvement at the state level pretty much mirrored this: the community network initiatives that did well did so in communities with either a rapid rate of adoption (pure numbers) or a broad adoption pattern (depth).

As the term "community" has come to have a broader application I think that the same observations apply. Fan sites, communities of interest, &c. generally do not do well if they are imposed top-down by a few individuals, but can thrive if they allow the broader base of potential participants to express themselves through the medium, while also feeling that they are served/informed or that they otherwise learn of grow via participation and contribution. Anyway, if you want to follow up with Seattle and all of the things that they did right then take a look at Douglas Schuler, particularly his book on community networking. There is a lot of good history out there, starting with the FreeNet movement and NPTN, and you can get a good idea of how technology has changed over the years as CN issues have moved from access to hardware, to access to bandwidth and email (I am retiring the free email accounts on AOCN this summer, it was a big deal to offer them in the pre-hotmail days), to community technology centers and job training. Glad to see this get a thread.

Wow, what an idea this is! I made the trip up to "The cave" a while back. Imagine what a whole room of LCD walls would be like. I've told my wife before that I want a game room. Now I really want a GAME ROOM.

Unions may have made sense in certain industries or in certain centuries but I doubt it. Most of the time they tend to reduce the output of labor and increase costs which in any long run reduces corporate competitive power and leads to less salary growth, less jobs, and less money.

Instead of an IT work stoppage, my advise would be to quit and find another job. As someone who recently finished a job hunt I can definitely say jobs are out there. They aren't quite as easy to get as they were last year but they still are plentiful and they still pay pretty nicely.

Take all of the above with a grain of salt because I am a capitalist pig.

Maybe there were some body changes. For instance, my second-generation TiBook exhibits a very nasty paint blistering problem. Apple usually uses these incremental upgrades to fix nagging issues.... Hmm, I hope they'll replace mine.

Yeah, I got a lemon. We'll see what happens. Apple didn't believe me when I told them.... so I had to document it with photos.
