Hey Joe --- Doc got in a good one!

FIY.

Says here in Plastic that DIY porn is further spreading the already well-spread porn industry.

If you want a controlled study in the politics of DIY art, compare and contrast this development to what's happening with the record industry.

I'm glad the new RSS feed for Doc is working as well as it is. I'm still wondering if UserLand will make this available for everyone who uses Manila...

Not much earth-shattering news here. Unless you consider having one of the greats teaching an Intro class earth-shaking. Which I do. Imagine Einstein, Oppenheimer, or Feynman teaching an Introduction to Physics for non-majors course. That's about what this one is like.

To the Liberal Arts, He Adds Computer Science. Brian Kernighan, a legendary computer scientist, has a new challenge for himself: to demystify digital technology for liberal arts students. By Steve Lohr.

Kernighan, the K part of the K & R boo^H^H^H bible of C programming, should be able to provide some outstanding insights, and I do like the two analogies offered near the end of the article. I just doubt his students know how good they really have it. I wonder if they are videotaping this course, and if I could score a copy?
