Das eez kaput! Sometime around 2002 I spaced the entire database table that mapped individual entries to categories. Such is life. What follows is a random sampling of entries that were associated with the category. Over time, the entries will be updated and then it will be even more confusing. Wander around, though, it's still a fun way to find stuff.

I'm still trying to decide if Karl's photograph of those horrible pink trees

in the new wing of the Palais des Congres is supposed to be an editorial comment on the Semantic Web which, like the trees, is also renowned for its artificial or lifelike environment ... update : So I finished reading the piece and wondered why there was no example to show how you were supposed to point to your semantic stylesheet. And then I realized that doing so would leave Karl's plans for world domination bare for all to see: <link rel = "semantics" type = " text/cow " href = "..." /> . Cascading Ontology for the Web, indeed!

The dictified dictionary.com word of the day is : confute

Confute \Con*fute\, v. t. [imp. & p. p. {Confuted}; p. pr. & vb. n. {Confuting}.] [L. confutare to chek (a boiling liquid), to repress, confute; con- + a root seen in futis a water vessel), prob. akin to fundere to pour: cf. F. confuter. See {Fuse} to melt.] To overwhelm by argument; to refute conclusively; to prove or show to be false or defective; to overcome; to silence. Satan stood . . . confuted and convinced Of his weak arguing fallacious drift. --Milton. No man's error can be confuted who doth not . . . grant some true principle that contradicts his error. --Chillingworth. I confute a good profession with a bad conversation. --Fuller. Syn: To disprove; overthrow; sed aside; refute; oppugn. Usage: To {Confute}, {Refute.} Refute is literally to and decisive evidence; as, to refute a calumny, charge, etc. Confute is literally to check boiling, as when cold water is poured into hot, thus serving to allay, bring down, or neutralize completely. Hence, as applied to arguments (and the word is never applied, like refute, to charges), it denotes, to overwhelm by evidence which puts an end to the case and leaves an opponent nothing to say; to silence; as, ``the atheist is confuted by the whole structure of things around him.'' web1913
confute v : prove to be false; "The physicist disproved his colleagues' theories" [syn: {disprove}] [ant: {prove}] wn

This was mostly just an exercise to prove to myself that there is no magic here beyond the standard eval "require $class"; and AUTOLOAD hacks. Problems to sort out : 1) why installing AUTOLOAD subs in the symbol table doesn't work -- or more specifically, why XMLRPC::Lite::call() hangs; 2) How to AUTOLOAD methods with dots in them without declaring the string as a variable first.

Movable Thoughts #9

By default, Movable Type creates new files with permissions of 0666. It should be common knowledge what I think about this, by now. So I will just point out that this is the place where a person's belief in the inate goodness of others is put the test. Your sysadmin may also yell at you. I've sent in some bug fixes which I'm told will be included with the next release. For the time being, if you're running MT through a cgiwrapper that sets uid as user "you", you can tweak this by hand without too much trouble. In MT.pm, you'll want to change the following...
  • Add umask(0022) in sub _rebuild_entry_archive_type, at line 126-ish
  • Comment out chmod ... in in sub _rebuild_entry_archive_type, at lines 225-226
  • Add umask(0022) in sub rebuild_indexes, at line 235-ish
  • Comment out chmod ... at sub rebuild_indexes, at lines 267-268
...and in MT::ObjectDriver::DBM.pm...
  • Add umask(0027) in sub _tie_db_file, at line 37-ish note the slightly draconian permissions. this is predicated on the assumption that there is no reason that any one but you should be looking at the MT DBM files
  • Comment out if ($created){ chmod ... } in sub _tie_db_file, at lines 40-42
Note, that these are quick hacks. I'll leave it as an exercise to the reader to decide if they want to store the old umask and then reset after creating files (good practice, probably unnecessary). Following that, you should "rebuild" your files and then chmod your old database files, by hand.

Tels : Dev::Bollocks.pm

"implements /dev/bollocks, which generates management bullshit whenever you need it. ... this module doesn't simple do a head /dev/bollocks, that would be too easy, too fast and non-portable. And bullshit is universilly portable. Thus the module makes a subclass of Math::Sting and changes the default charset to a charset that emulates the original /dev/bollocks charset. As a side-effect you can calculate with bollocks strings, or even compare them to find out which is greater crap than the other."

I confess that I'm not sure what the point of this thread is.

It seems to have something to do with the fact that RSS isn't very good for doing anything more complicated than it was designed for. It might also be about how people are too stupid to generate valid RSS documents. Or both. Hello? If you want a super-whizbang meta-format that will be adaptable enough to meet all of your quirks, use RSS 1.0 and write a module if it doesn't already do what you want it to. Just please shut up about it, already. RSS is just like tables before the magical world of cascading style sheets that have ushered in a brave new world of Right Thing-edness...when they work. RSS is simple to grok, simple to implement and yeilds tangible results because no one has ever bothered to check for anything other than well-formedness. ( <![CDATA[]]> tags make pretty short work of that, as it is...) Deal with it, folks : RSS got hijacked by the street and starting a re-education campaign is a waste of time.

Peter G. Neumann : [W]hen there is no security in place, the alleged culprit cannot have exceeded authority

when no authority is implied. As long-time RISKS readers will recall, this issue came up relating to the trial of Robert Tappan Morris: in 1988, the Internet worm never exceeded authority, because no authority was required to use the sendmail debug option, to use the .rhosts mechanism, to execute the finger daemon, or to read an unprotected encrypted password file. I wonder how if prosecutors will ever figure this out! As long as we attempt to shoot the messenger and hide lame security behind overly broad laws, weak security will prevail, and whistleblowers will be much rarer than glassblowers. (For example, DMCA is among other things an attempt to outlaw whistleblowers.)"

www.humanmarkup.org

"Standardizing human expression through XML. ... With HumanMarkup, we can finally explicitly annotate and represent the relevant information within a communications session, including emotions, intentions, motivations and allusions. Further, we can use XSLT transformations to represent the various embedded human qualities within a document. For example, a speech containing anger may be represented in a larger font or louder voice. Emails that are meant to be taken seriously could be displayed in bolder text than emails that are meant to be taken lightly could be displayed in lighter text. The embedded emotional content within a message could be aurally or visually represented when a mouse rolls over the words. Finally, the embedded cultural context within a text could explicitly represent the mindset and associations of the communicator." So close and yet so, so, so very far away...

Steve Dietz : "This is open-source living in the digital age.

It's making a political statement about ownership and commercialism. It's not just about viewing. Not only can you see in, but you can use the plans yourself. Net art has always been centered around the idea of appropriating the institutionalized system for the artist's own purposes, and that's clearly what they're doing." This is the arts community busy playing catch-up...

Pico Iyer : Mongrel Beauties

"For many years -- for all my life, really -- I've been travelling the world looking at how different countries and people try to make sense of the multicultural mixes we're all becoming. One of the unusual and potent things about the present moment is that the very issue that so many cultures and cities are facing is exactly the same one that more and more individuals such as myself are confronting: How to fashion a sense of self or home when all the traditional co-ordinates are gone? And how to make a peace among the disparate, often competing, cultures inside of us? How, in short, to begin to create a sense of direction -- and foundation -- when the world is spinning around us at the speed of light?" Apparently by becoming "honorary Canadians".

All basements are not created equal.

I found these photos while preparing for The Big Move 2.0. With six and half foot high stucco ceilings and (dark) fake wood panelling, this is the place that I have measured all the others against. Just West of Little Italy, we lived three to the basement with another three "apartments" in the house. Above the kitchen lived a woman our age, affectionately dubbed The Screamer. Somewhere above my make-shift room, lived the single mother whose son was taken away from her by the police on an April morning; not soon enough to prevent her from beating the shit out of him too many times. We never saw the people on the second floor but they got more mail than the rest of us combined. This is where I quit smoking, rediscovered computers and made these paintings .

Or try Murder and Homosexuality, which combine for such recent attention getters as "Flawless" and "The Talented Mr. Ripley." "

It's nice to see websites acting like cigarette companies

and re-designing their packaging for seemingly no other reason than to garner attention and increaseco-called mindshare. All I know is I can't read anything because I keep getting distracted by all those foofy dots ( I struggle on in a war of attrition with one of my employers over the use of bullets ) and triangles and those lines. What is up with those lines? see also MetaFilter / Zeldman : I smell cubicle . Update : via haughey comes plain vanilla Salon , just the way we like it.

Montreal Gazette : Ici, on parle E-com

You know, one of the best things the city of Montreal did in recent years was to set up a grant program where small businesses could access funds to improve their store fronts. It has done more to revitalize parts of the city than Y-A Convention Center project ever could. So now the provincial government, eager to ride the coat-tails of the dot.com revolution, is going to build another convention center. Les Quebecois have already shown themselves to be pretty quick on their feet and I bet the Keeners and True Believers could put the money to better use than tubular office buildings. A sort of "the street finds it's own use for things" situation. This is all about buying votes and creating a false sense of security so that the Old Guard of the P.Q. can see a sovereign Quebec in their lifetime. This is why a referendum won't be won any time soon : the only people who stand to gain are the politicians and their over-inflated sense of pride and people know it. Meanwhile, in Toronto...

Gary Chapman : Putting responsibility before technical progress

"After the [DDoS] attacks, Weinstein wrote, 'For now, it might be advisable for everyone to remember that the Internet, for all its wonders, is in many ways very fragile. We must not allow ourselves to get into a position where being cut off from a site for a few hours -- or even longer -- puts people or property at risk. Our lives should not revolve around guaranteed 24/7 access to eBay, or Yahoo!, or any site on the public Internet, regardless of its importance.' "

The Canadian Student Federation demonstrations yesterday

led me their Declaration of Student Rights . I hate documents like this. I can't tell if they are legitimate statements of principle or just bargaining tools. The basic thrust seems to be that post-secondary education should be *whatever* the student body decides it is at *any* given moment, no matter what. It obscures and trivializes more important and immediate issues. Ultimately, it begs the question: why go to school at all? If all you want to do is be learned, read a book. Schools exist beyond any one student's tenure and make their decisions accordingly.

Bob Metcalfe : What if I-commerce were restricted on weekends?

I do not, however, think that the efforts of people to try and insure a quality of life we have come to expect and enjoy need to be subject to this kind of petty sarcasm. [These] are complicated and important issues that need to be addressed because we all still breath the same air. Just because I might want to be a keener doesn't make me more special and someone else a loser. To think otherwise, from what I've seen, is often just ego-fucking.

Boston Globe

"Today, the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court will grapple with the question of what should become of the microscopic fertilized eggs, and could tackle legal and ethical issues few other states have addressed: What is the legal status of a human embryo? Is it property, a person, or something in between?" If you didn't think that was complicated enough, the parties involved are divorced and arguing about whether or not to have more children. I think I'll just go play with some data structures, now, and pretend the world is simple.

the anxiety building
While I was Montreal, I popped my head into the newly minted SoftImage offices and quickly dubbed [them] The Anxiety Building . The whole thing looked like it was built expressly to make even to most ardent Techo-fetishist and Believer feel inadequate and worthless. The ground floor also houses the Cinema Parallele / Cafe Melies combo which used to be up the street in slightly more humble and human environments. Now they both look like they are straight out of Blade Runner. When you buy tickets for a movie, you don't actually look at a human being but rather a port hole shaped computer monitor that displays a distorted video feed of the cashier taken with a webcam located on the other side of the monitor/window. Caro and Jeunet , here we come!

Champ libre : 4ème manifestation internationale vidéo et art électronique

Upside on IPIX

"Ipix has patented the use of a camera and a fish-eye lens to capture two images that [are] combined via software algorithms, to produce an image that can be viewed on a computer to simulate an immersive environment," says one member of the International QuickTime VR Association ( IQTVR ) , an international group supporting the Apple technology. "This is like Crayola patenting the use of paper and drawing instruments to produce art and then charging people for each sheet of paper used."

NY Times : The Éminence of Excess

Isn't is fitting that on the craziest weekend in recent memory, here on the Vineyard, the Times runs a feature on Mickey -The Gapman- Drexler's architect. (Drexler recently built an enormous boat-shaped trophy house, up-Island, complete with 5000$ bathroom fixtures.)

Does anyone know

whether the AirPort can, does, or will support encryption? MOSR is saying there is 40-bit encryption between the Pods and the Creamsicles (see peterme ), but I don't whether or not to believe them.

Gavin McNett on "The Pearly Gates of Cyberspace"

"But then, if you look at the notion of "cyberspace" in rigorously historical terms, the idea that a person running a Web browser is somehow flying through an ethereal realm of pure data is just the flip side of the notion that if you open up the TV, you'll find little people dancing around inside."

Matthew Mirapaul : An Attack on the Commercialization of Web Art

"Rinehart said: 'Is $52.50 the true value of the work? Well, it doesn't need to be, because I sold a copy of the work to Robbin, not exclusive ownership rights. I sold the only form of property relevant in the 'e-verse:' intellectual property. Maybe digital artists could make up in volume at low prices what they lose in uniqueness at high prices.' " Does anyone remember Paul Allen spending $6M of his own money to help Jimi Hendrix' father secure his son's "image rights" ?
