LEGO SERIOUS PLAY. "The hand is connected to the brain." [Is this a new thought?] *
winterspeak.com. "But Hollywood is on crack to think their business is threatened. Video transmits at 180Mbps uncompressed, and let's say 90Mbps compressed (with loss). At 0.3Mbps (which is what the FCC defines as "broadband") it'll take 750 hours to download a 2.5 hour movie. Even if you improved everything by three orders of magnitude it's still faster to go to Blockbusters." [Way back when they killed the DAT deck and put a tax on tape stock, I said his would happen. Maybe this time it will affect enough people that something will be prevent the worst from happening again.] *
Joel on Software. "Whenever somebody gives you a spec for some new technology, if you can't understand the spec, don't worry too much. Nobody else is going to understand it, either, and it's probably not going to be important. This is the lesson of SGML, which hardly anyone used, until Tim Berners-Lee dumbed it down dramatically and suddenly people understood it. For the same reason he simplified the file transfer protocol, creating HTTP to replace FTP." [All things being equal, simpler is better.] *
Cnotes.Phrasewise.Com : Rookie Reader. "We pick out a few of his favorite books, and he sits with his blanket on his legs and his stuffed buddies next to him and "reads" the stories to them. "
Transport Layer Security: Developer Notes. "The secure web server is transparent. The HTTP headers are all there, and with the exception of the port number they're exactly the same as those provided by the traditional web server. Essentially, this means that anything which runs behind the standard web server will also run behind the secure server." [Go Seth!] *
[To Dave, Mohsen Al-Ghosein, and anyone else that had something to do with XML-RPC. Despite the fact that it may not "do anything" that wasn't already done in some fashion, there is a certain "anyone can play" attitude about XML-RPC that developers seem to enjoy. Considering how much bickering over language and transports and environments I see, that's a rare and important quality. Thank you.] *
[Hard to believe, but I'm second on Google for Quark Xpress and crack. I like XPress, have never come close to trying "crack" cocaine, and would never have anything to do with a "cracked" version of any software (or anything else). This is an extremely easy issue to understand.] *
