Here are some thoughts that go beyond programming and include engineering as well. And not just systems vs black block, but concepts as well.
Here are some random thoughts.
Take the slide rule. Back in the days before destops, calculators, and palmtops, we had slide rules to do division and multiplication. You slide the rule for the numerator over the denominator (I think, its' been so long). You then look at the result.
The thing is, you can see how 'close' the result is to whatever you desire (in a circuit or system). You can intuit how close thing are. You can easily 'play with the numbers' with a slide rule in some cases. Slide it a little to see what it would take to get the desired results. A teeny amount, alot; whatever.
With digital calculators, it's a harder (for me) to see the changes visualy. All you see is a quanitive value. I can't look at the physical distances on a slide rule and make inferences.
I can remember doing the same intuiting with meters. In the days before digitization and computers, we had analog meters. A needle would point to the value (voltage, amperage, whatever). Often the 'movement' of the needle is almost more important than the actual value itself.
Take the tuning of a final output circuit in a radio transmitter. You dip the plate and tune for proper power. With an analog meter, you can see the needle do a quick dip. Sometimes with a digital meter, you can miss the dip, espcially if the circuit has a high Q value. The motion of the needle of the meter controls the speed at which I turn the various knobs.
With a digital meter, I feel removed from the process of tuning.
Monitoring the electrical service for a facility, whether it be a radio transmitter facility, or even a computer room; I am much more comfortable with an analog voltmeter and amp-probe. It's far easier for me to watch for hiccups (needles jumping rapidly or slowly) to indicate something is happening.
I feel that all of these examples are important in my desire to be a part of the overall system, rather than being only a blind black box. I use my overall knowlege of what is happening in the system as a whole to get a 'feel' if what is happening right there and then.
With only abstract figures and a blind black box interface, I would feel much alone and out of touch with the reality of the system.
I think the same can be said about programming. In all of the projects I have been involved with, I have been fortunate enough to see the overall picture of the system at a high enough level to be able to able to be a 'part of the system' rather than a disconnected black box'. This is certainly true in my background in writing scripts to monitor the health of databases and operating systems.
If Hillary joins me, then the music will be so interesting that I will have to take up a collection here on/. to pay the landlord for a whole new bathroom.
Could this be similar to a custom watermark on each individual song or piece that's sold?
How tamper-proof will this be? If all of the on-line sources that will be selling musing/videos/whatever are to be expected to issue these watermarks, the standards would have to be public, or at least very darn near public.
If the standards are even close to being public, perhaps someone could figure out how to remove and or alter these watermarks.
Hmm, very interesting. I buy a song from MSN. I read the file into a scrip that I hacked. I change the watermark in some way. I then turn around and sell it under the table. The buyer takes the song and then in turn sells it, or whatever.
Sometime later, someone gets raided by the SPA, MPAA, or whatever. They audit the songs. They find a few with the watermark that I altered. Their trail will be lost or steered into some poor victim whose watermark I 'stole' to alter my songs.
A possible solution to this would be to have a secret algorithm to generate the watermarks. This would have to be implemented in tamper-proof chips or, perhaps, a tamper-proof device that goes between your computer and the network; ie; a special NIC card. The card would know who you are and what song you are about to release. It would then generate and record the water mark in it's secret way before the song is sent on its way.
The logistics of this solution would be challenging. The devices would have to be distributed, cataloged, and recorded. Who has which special NIC card would have to be recorded in RIAA'a TIA infrastructure. Of course, this same infrastruction would have to record each subsequent sale/disposal of the card. The security of the cards would have to be impeccible.
As I read the article, it seems to me (and please flame/correct me if I am wrong) that this is not intended for the movie theatres, but intended for television.
I strongly feel that these type of movies should be on the big screen. Even if there is no decent plot (and I know the Dune will have a plot), magnificent scenes should be seen on a large screen in a decent, comfortable theatre.
I remember the original Dune. I loved some of the epic scens on the large screen in a decent theatre with a good sound system. In fact, even though I am not a Dunnite and did not understand the plot, I still sat through it twice just for the scenery.
I later saw portions on a TV screen. The small screen does not do this type of movie justice. Only if someone has a decent home theatre type TV system with a dedicated room and good sound would a Dune type picture be worth putting on TV.
I really feel that these folks should release the series into theatres and then make it available via DVD/tape for the TV crowd.
I apoligize in advance if I read the article incorrectly.
Good posting. Thank you very much for clerifying what is happening. You are right. I did not know that this project is taking place on a part of the grounds that has been unused for so long and what seems to have been almost an eyesore.
I have just read the sfgate article as well as most of the comments on this site about the new Lucas Presidio headquarters.
It's interesting to me to see that much of the conversation here has turned toward the movies themselves rather than the impacts, both positive and negative of the new facility on the park and the city.
The article mentions that a group of residents have expressed concerns about the development. In my skimming of the comments, I did not notice any from that group.
I would like to see what you folks think of the development itself (not the films or the characters) and it's relation to the park.
Will it affect public access in any way? I know that Lucas has been very security conscous at it's Marin headquarters. Will this paranoia on Lucas's part adversely impace public access to the park?
Will this add any more jobs to the Bay Area? Or just move jobs from one part to another?
Being on federal land, will this project contribute anything to San Francisco's tax coffers?
I hear you telling me to stop advertising. I am not advertising. I am only explaining why I wear my clothing the way I do in response to another persons query.
I have absolutely no desire to advertise on this forum or any other such forum.
You should have seen the clear plastic wedding dress that I wore for gay pride last year.
I even wore it to church the morning prior to the pride march.
This is a full, three piece crystal clear plastic wedding dress.
Perhaps I should have included disk drive platters within the outfit. Yes. I will do that. Clear plastic wedding dress with an inside liner made out of disk drive platters. I'll wear it at the next Slashdot conference
I have seen some interesting stuff done with the platters inside hard disk drives.
There is a computer recycling organization in town where they take old computers, test the components, make new computers for those in need, and then recycle the defective components.
One of the things they did was to dissasemble the discarded hard drives that do not work. They did this for two reasons. One of them was to ensure that the data on that disk remains confidential. Who knows what personal information (personal finances, surfed porn, love letters, etc) is left behind.
The other reason they broke the drives down is to make mobiles out of the platters. Those hard disk platters were really beautifull. They are very shiny; as if they were made out of glass. In fact, I first mistook them for glass. They also ring nicely when they hit each other. So, a few of those hung on nylon fishing line swinging in the breeze, make a wonderful sound.
I also heard a story where someone took a bunch of these and fashioned a skirt out of them. He attatched them together using monofiliment line.
When he wore that skirt and did a twirl, it would be an awsome sight and the sound could be heard from quite a distance away.
I am a little confused. Yes, mod me down for this, but I could not resist.
I thought that the last time I used my pgp (the oldie from MIT, now updgraded to GPG), the whole darn thing is command line.
I get encryped email. I save it to a file (using pine, my mua). I copy the file to my home machine. I decrypt it using gpg, which is a command line action. I read the message. I make my reply. I encrypt it using my command line GPG. I ftp it back to my email account. I use pine to include the file into the reply email messages.
Now, I have been doing this both for my personal use. I have also been using it to communicate with one of my customers who is buying fetish clothing from me, but who lives in a place that he has to be careful.
Now, you are saying that I have to pay $5,000 for the privilege of using this, especialy for my business?
This is old. I can remember a few of my jobs where monitoring was close, if not closer than what I see today.
One of them was where I was working for the Department of Defense. We all worked in an open area. The desks were set up like desks in a large classroom. There were not deviders or partitions.
In front of the room was the glass enclosed (not frosted glass, mind you, but the clear kind) office of the manager. He might has well had his desk in front, just like my teacher when I was a little boy in school.
4 people shared each phone. The computer terminals were on tables along one side of the room, also in plain site of the manager's. office.
No newspapers were allowed. If you spent too much time talking with someone, the manager is bound to notice and look up with a frown.
A buzzer sounded at 7 AM when the workday started. The horn of the lunch truck signaled the beginning of lunch. A buzzer sounded at 3:30 in the afternoon for the day's. end.
Another job I had was in a high security environment. A closed circuit TV camera was mounted in one corner of the room, visible to all desks. The person at the monitor for that camera could see all of us and what we were doing.
Perhaps there are two issues conflicting here (more than two, but I will limit my comments to two).
You might have a bit of ego on the part of the software developers. You have a sense of Just Get the Darn Job Done on the part of the users.
I was a developer. I had to ego. I just had to get my unique thing into the code. The feature that is **ME**. The unique graphical icon, screen, whatever that is uniquely mine.
I was also a user. I just had to get the job done. To get the job done, I usualy needed only the basics of the software tools at hand. I only needed the fancy word process for the same features that Notepad could have provided.
I have to confess that even when I make something for myself, I can see the conflict within myself, just the one person.
I can see where this can be handy for advertising.
Because of TIA and other information hoarding initiatives, the merchants know what you like and don't like.
For example, I run an on line fetish wear business. I contract with bars in the seedier areas of town to host one of these transmitters on their premises. I do the same with the adult theatres and porno shops.
As you walk past, or into, these businesses, and I know (via TIA or other info hoarding schemes) that you like fetish clothing, I can beam messages to your palmtop about sales of certain items (that I can customize for you).
Since you are in the mood (being in the seedy area) this might be just enough to tip you over to making a purchase.
I remember when I had to apply for a security clearence back in 1978, I had to provide a lot of information including bank and credit information.
They explained to me that one of the things they look at is the potential vulurability of the person to being given financial help in return for some favors (secrets) and then blackmailed with exposure.
I also think they look carefully at all of the information; credit history included; to try to make certain that the person is not a plant; that he or she did live a legitimate life here in the United States.
I am an etailer with no physical presence in any of the sales tax states. My presence is in a non sales tax state (Oregon). I deal exclusively over the net and over the phone.
I don't think that this agreement will mean much for etailers like myself. I think that all of those in the agreement have physical presences in the sales tax states (brick & morter sites).
Furthermore, I think that enforcement of this type of set-up will be an interesting challenge. I report my income to the federal income tax forms as gross income. There is no requirement to break it down to which state the income comes from.
Even if I am required to furnish a state by state breakdown, I cannot see an easy means to verify what I report.
Buyers of my product do not send me a W2 or a 1099 or anything else to the IRS or the state.
I think that alot of people like myself will find it easy to fall through the cracks on this one.
Here are some random thoughts about movie pirating.
I recently went to the theater to see a move (Chicago). I paid $9.00.
For that money, I was given the privilege to see about 8 commercials and 8 previews before the show even started. The commercials were not just those for the snack bar and the gift certificate for the theater itself. These were TV type commercials that I thought that I paid my $9.00 to not to see.
I think that what I am trying to say is if the movie-going experience is made a little more pleasent, perhaps maybe the piracy might go down?
How about this for a far fetched thought. Back in the olden days (golden olden) you went to the movies and you had a real experience. A guy playing a pipe organ as part of the show. A nice gilded theater. You entered a very special palace for a very special experience. An experience that cannot be easily pireted.
Now, I look forward to the experience we have with Rocky Horror Picture Show. That is something that you can't easily pirate.

I hope that 'Chicago' gets the best picture award.
This has been the first musical, that I can recall, that has come out for a long time.
I have longed for musicals such as 'Sound of Music', 'Singing In The Rain', and 'West Side Story'.
I can remember going to those movies as a chile and being 'carried away' by the fantasy and joy they evoked.
I am very dissapointed that these types of musicals are not comming out of the Hollywood machine lately.
I hope, if 'Chicago' gets the award, that more musicals will start to come down the line.
Mark
If Hillary joins me, then the music will be so interesting that I will have to take up a collection here on /. to pay the landlord for a whole new bathroom.
Why do you think that RIAA music is crappy?
Have you heard me sing in the shower lately?
That would change your mind.
I just got a $200.00 surcharge on my rent because the landlord had to replace the full length bathroom mirror that broke while I was singing.

Please don't be suprised to see the same thing
happen, or at least, proposed here.
Measure 28, a temporary income tax hike,was
defeated during a special election in January.
The state is looking at some very serious cuts,
including literaly putting some mental patients
out onto the streets.
Things are getting so desparate here that I
would not be suprised that something like this
does not happen.
In fact, I think that I should be suprised that
it has not been at least proposed by now.

I did this for two reasons.
First of all, to celibrate gay pride. That is the
fun part of it.
The second, and most important reason, is to
promote my business.
Now that I can't find a decent IT job after one
and one half years, I decided to go into the
fetish clothing business.
What better way to promote this type of business
than to wear the stuff in public.
Between wearing the dress during gay pride and
wearing some of my other clothing at public
function, I have received leads and work.
Look at it this way. It's advertising. Is it
any worse than the stuff you see on TV/Internet/
Billboards/etc?

where monitoring was close, if not closer than

Department of Defense. We all worked in an open
area. The desks were set up like desks in a large

In front of the room was the glass enclosed (not
frosted glass, mind you, but the clear kind)
office of the manager. He might has well had
his desk in front, just like my teacher when I

4 people shared each phone. The computer terminals
were on tables along one side of the room, also
in plain site of the manager's. office.
No newspapers were allowed. If you spent too
much time talking with someone, the manager is
bound to notice and look up with a frown.
A buzzer sounded at 7 AM when the workday started.
The horn of the lunch truck signaled the beginning

This would be great for some of the clear plastic
fetish wear that I make.
Perhaps there are two issues conflicting here
(more than two, but I will limit my comments to
two).
You might have a bit of ego on the part of the
software developers. You have a sense of Just
Get the Darn Job Done on the part of the users.
I was a developer. I had to ego. I just had to
get my unique thing into the code. The feature
that is **ME**. The unique graphical icon,
screen, whatever that is uniquely mine.
I was also a user. I just had to get the job
done. To get the job done, I usualy needed
only the basics of the software tools at hand.
I only needed the fancy word process for the
same features that Notepad could have provided.
I have to confess that even when I make something
for myself, I can see the conflict within myself,
just the one person.
Mark
I can see where this can be handy for advertising.
Because of TIA and other information hoarding
initiatives, the merchants know what you like
and don't like.
For example, I run an on line fetish wear business.
I contract with bars in the seedier areas of town
to host one of these transmitters on their premises.
I do the same with the adult theatres and porno
shops.
As you walk past, or into, these businesses,
and I know (via TIA or other info hoarding
schemes) that you like fetish clothing, I can
beam messages to your palmtop about sales of
certain items (that I can customize for you).
Since you are in the mood (being in the seedy
area) this might be just enough to tip you
over to making a purchase.
Mark
I remember when I had to apply for a security
clearence back in 1978, I had to provide a lot
of information including bank and credit
information.
They explained to me that one of the things they
look at is the potential vulurability of the
person to being given financial help in return
for some favors (secrets) and then blackmailed
with exposure.
I also think they look carefully at all of
the information; credit history included; to
try to make certain that the person is not a
plant; that he or she did live a legitimate life
here in the United States.

Hi:
I am an etailer with no physical presence in any
of the sales tax states. My presence is in a non
sales tax state (Oregon). I deal exclusively over
the net and over the phone.
I don't think that this agreement will mean much
for etailers like myself. I think that all of those
in the agreement have physical presences in the
sales tax states (brick & morter sites).
Furthermore, I think that enforcement of this
type of set-up will be an interesting challenge.
I report my income to the federal income tax
forms as gross income. There is no requirement
to break it down to which state the income
comes from.
Even if I am required to furnish a state by
state breakdown, I cannot see an easy means to
verify what I report.
Buyers of my product do not send me a W2 or a
1099 or anything else to the IRS or the state.
I think that alot of people like myself will find
it easy to fall through the cracks on this one.
Mark
Good suggestion.
Thanks.
Only place it might not work is if the theatre
is full, but for a weekday matnae, this would
work.

Here are some random thoughts about movie
pirating.
I recently went to the theater to see a
move (Chicago). I paid $9.00.
For that money, I was given the privilege to
see about 8 commercials and 8 previews before
the show even started. The commercials were not
just those for the snack bar and the gift
certificate for the theater itself. These
were TV type commercials that I thought that
I paid my $9.00 to not to see.
I think that what I am trying to say is if the
movie-going experience is made a little more
pleasent, perhaps maybe the piracy might go
down?
How about this for a far fetched thought. Back
in the olden days (golden olden) you went to
the movies and you had a real experience. A
guy playing a pipe organ as part of the show.
A nice gilded theater. You entered a very special
palace for a very special experience. An
experience that cannot be easily pireted.
Now, I look forward to the experience we have
with Rocky Horror Picture Show. That is something
that you can't easily pirate.
