This is for those that have interacted with D Winer"Dave's idea of love is fucking everyone else without so much as a reach
around.  You're supposed to just shut up and take it."http://winerlog.inspiredsites.net/===========Who's the real monster?
It seems good Ol' Uncle Dave is once again trying to savage anyone that
dares to disagree with him.  It seems Ben, Kevin and Bill are making too
strong a case.  So here we Dave's attempt to fool you into thinking they're
some sort of monsters, violent ones no less.Anyone who works with Hemenway or Kearney should be aware that these people
are nothing less than monsters, who will stoop to any level to get their
way.Yeah sure Dave, whatever you need to believe.The truth is these folks do a fine job of actually helping others and
improving RSS in general.  Each with their own brand of attitude, to be
sure, but they seem to be pretty focused on actually helping things move
forward.  How is that being monstrous?Is Dave trying to slander their good names and thus poison the public's
perception of them?  If you haven't already, contact them and ask them how
they feel about this foolishness.
 9/18/02; 10:07:38 AM - DiscussDave deflects what he can't take the time to understand
It's really quite pitiful.  When normal people don't understand something
they usually try learning about it.  They read up, ask questions and seek
the help of those that understand it.  This before shooting their mouths off
and looking like fools.What Dave does is just the opposite.Posts a link to something he doesn't understand
Get's a bunch of e-mail from people who do understand it
Derides the idea as being 'too much trouble' and blogs it.
Expects others to do research for him
Abuses anyone who tries to help him
Pontificates, incorrectly, about only part of the issue
Realizes he's been a fool but refuses to correct himself
Plods forward pedantically trying to defend his idiocy
Tries making the educated people look like fools.
Sends private e-mails to them trying to scare them off.
Exposes any private e-mail they write, out of context.
Deflects and runs off to some new topic, repeats from #1
His continued diatribes about RSS-1.0 and it's use of RDF reveal this to be
true.  Dave doesn't get the idea of the semantic web.  He'd rather have you
follow his stupid ideas than dare admit that the work of others is worth
trying.One reader wrote to us with a good analogy.  "It's like that movie The
Poseidon Adventure.  Dave's like the purser ranting and raving that the
passengers should follow him and march toward the bow.  I don't know about
you but I'd rather be with the fat lady swimming toward the engine room.
The ship's fucking sinking and I don't want to be following the idiot."Dave's idea of love is fucking everyone else without so much as a reach
around.  You're supposed to just shut up and take it.  After all, why would
good ol' Uncle Dave want to hurt you?  It's all about love, right?  To hell
with asking you if you want to get shafted.  And if you dare complain, he
savages you.  Then he tries to make everyone think you're the one causing
all the trouble.We've news for you Dave, we're wise to your tactics and we're talking
amongst ourselves about it.  We're routing around you damaging behavoir.
That's where we're coming from.If you have an example of how you've tried to help Dave, please drop us an
e-mail about it.  We'll keep it strictly confidential of course.  Send it
along to zaphod@egroups.com

Trying to talk with Dave is like trying to wrestle a pig...
The trouble is, you get dirty and the pig seems to like it.Another developer tries talking to Dave and discovers it's fundamentally
impossible:His basic response was just that RDF was a joke and the Semantic Web
developers are doing a terrible job.In the span of less than five minutes Dave makes such an ass of himself that
people at other tables start whispering "that guy is an idiot..."The zaphodim, however, are veteran pig wrestle

"In fact, Caltech says that it actually spun out the same number of
startups in 2001 -- a poor time, needless to say, for new ventures -- as
it did in the boom year of 1999."  Oookaaaay...
http://www.fulcrummicro.com/press/article_eeTimes_05-08-02.shtmlIconoclast designers choose MIPS
By Anthony Cataldo
May 28, 2002  SAN JOSE, Calif. -- A group of engineers in Calabasas Hills, CA wants to
turn the microprocessor world on its head by doing the unthinkable:
tossing out the clock and letting the signals move about unencumbered.
For those designers, inspired by research conducted at nearby Caltech,
clocks are for wimps.The Fulcrum Microsystems Inc. design team isn't the first to propose an
asynchronous processor, but president and chief executive officer Robert
Nunn wants to be the first to take a clockless, fire-breathing processor
mainstream. "We really deal with an asynchronous world," he said. "We
only make it synchronous for our own convenience."This is the kind of stuff that many in the processor industry would
consider lunatic fringe, too weird for conservative embedded-systems
designers. But the young processor company and more than a dozen others
like it are anchored in the mainstream courtesy of the MIPS
instruction-set architecture. More and more, MIPS is becoming the choice
for maverick processor design teams seeking a place at the high end by
fielding unorthodox devices. And if Motorola and IBM in the PowerPC camp
aren't careful, they could see their performance leadership in the
high-end embedded-processor market snatched away by some of these upstarts.In Austin, Texas, meanwhile, designers at another MIPS house, Intrinsity
Inc., aren't prepared to ditch the clock. But they are putting a new
spin on some old tricks such as giving each gate its own clock and then
letting them overlap. Using such sleight of hand, the company hopes to
soon deliver RISC-based processors that run at an eye-popping 2 GHz and
consume just 10 to 15 watts.Fulcrum, Intrinsity and their brethren may once have been written off as
interesting experiments, backed by venture capitalists who overlooked
some of the finer details, like software compatibility. What lends them
respectability is MIPS.Theirs for the asking One reason young processor companies seem to be flocking to the platform
is that its steward, MIPS Technologies Inc., has no qualms about
licensing the instruction-set architecture (ISA), provided that the
licensee agrees to meet a software-compatibility test suite. By
contrast, processor-core rival ARM Ltd. has granted this privilege to
just two of its many licensees, Intel and Motorola. And so far, the two
PowerPC vendors, IBM Corp. and Motorola Inc., have rebuffed most
requests to license that architecture, with the notable exception being
FPGA vendor Xilinx Inc., which has licensed the 405 PowerPC from IBM.The MIPS ISA is also one of the simplest forms of
reduced-instruction-set computing around, which tends to make it
attractive to processor designers interested in extending the
architecture. It was this and the wide availability of tools and
software that drew Intrinsity to MIPS, even though the company is aiming
at PowerPC sockets, as evidenced by its decision to adopt the RapidIO
interface instead of HyperTransport, which has been favored by MIPS vendors.Good fit "It's a nice, clean architecture and has an open model that allows us to
add instructions," said Paul Nixon, chief executive officer of
Intrinsity.  "You also get all the third-party tools that very easily
fit into our base of platforms."There was a time when this openness was seen as a liability for MIPS. In
the mid-1990s, before MIPS was spun out from Silicon Graphics Inc., the
instruction set lacked a multiply-add instruction, so some MIPS vendors
took it upon themselves to create their own. The problem was that this
broke many of the development tools, causing headaches for compiler
vendors like Green Hills Software Inc."We went to MIPS and said we have 20 different

query : preserving field recordings i have a question about preserving regular * analog * recordings made in the field . i work in rural chinese , and for the most part i collect inventories of lexicon , along with some texts . for ordinary background recording of interviews i have been using a $ 45 panasonic microcassette recorder on half-speed , which does * quite * serviceably even without an external mic . i intend to use ordinary high-bias non-metal cassettes for material i want to work with in some detail , such as stories , conversations , and recitation . i can transfer that to micro-cassette for transcription , so that the master remains in good condition . what concerns me is finding a way to preserve material originally made on analog tape . tapes mildew rapidly in taiwan and southern china , and even in seattle and new york i have had tapes become unplayable after a number of years in storage . i was thinking that if there were some inexpensive and painless way to digitize ordinary analog tapes , i could transfer them to cd here at my school , for only the price of the cd itself ( about $ 12 ) . one problem is wasted space : i can only fit 74 minutes of uncompressed sound on a cd , because one seems to have no choice but to record in stereo , even if the original source is mono . does anyone have any experience with this ? i could get far more material onto a cd if i compressed it but i do n't want to do that , because i have no confidence that today 's compression protocols will be readable in 20 or 50 years - remember the data from the 1960 us census , which was stored on magnetic tape and could no longer be read by the mid - 1980 's ? if something is important enough to preserve on cd , i do n't want it to become unreadable in a few decades . i 'd appreciate hearing any ideas on long-term storage . also , if anyone has ideas about why digital equipment might still be preferable for my work , i 'd like to hear them . i will summarize the responses i get . sincerely , david prager branner , yuen ren society asian l&l , do-21 , university of washington seattle , wa 98195 usa < charmii @ u . washington . edu > web : http : / / weber . u . washington . edu / ~ yuenren / circular . html

n - ary vs . binary lloyd anderson asks how n-ary ( for n greater than 2 ) comparison could ever be worse than binary . consider the problem of heads and tails when we toss coins . what are the chances of two coins ( standing for two languages obviously ) both coming up the same ( i . e . , both heads or both tails ) when tossed once ? since there are four possible outcomes of the binary toss , namely , hh , ht , tt , and th , and only two where both come up the same , the chances are 50 % . but now consider what happens when we toss three coins ( standing for three languages ) . since a coin only has two sides , in each possible outcome at least two of the coins come up the same . so the chances of 2 out of 3 coming up the same ( which would correspond to saying let two out of three languages agree in something and then they are related ) are 100 % ( which means this is not a valid test for relatedness ) . of course , if we had wanted all 3 out 3 to come up the same , then the situation would be drastically different , but in linguistics n-ary comparison never to my knowledge involves such a requirement . however , the only reason that n-ary comparison does so poorly here is that ( a ) there are only two possible outcomes per language , i . e . , languages come in only two varieties , and ( b ) the number of languages being compared is small ( only three ) . the ( a ) part is the one where real linguistic applications are drastically different from our little coin-tossing game ( since when you look for language relationships , you are looking at hundreds or thousands or maybe even more possibilities , not two , because you are looking at phonological shapes of morphemes mostly , and these allow lots of possibilities , at least thousands ) . so in the real situations that alone insures that n-ary comparison is better than binary . but it is also true that if you increase the number of coins ( languages ) in ( b ) , that also has the same effect . but you still have to be careful : the main concern is that given n languages being compared you must worry about how many out of the n are required to agree and about not making that number too small ( if you do , then again chance tends to take over ) . which raises a question : is there any published work on comparing languages which explicitly calculates these numbers ( and does it right ) ? alexis mr

ets year - end performance evaluation process the year - end performance evaluation process is a great opportunity for employees and their supervisors to review accomplishments for the year and identify opportunities for personal growth . additionally , it is an opportunity for each of us to provide meaningful performance feedback to help others . this memo is intended to summarize the major elements of this important process and clarify the timeline for year - end 2001 . ( note : ets employees on self - directed work teams that participate in the skill - based pay program will complete team and peer performance reviews as they have in the past and are exempted from the discussion that follows . ) feedback and evaluation employees will solicit 360 ? feedback on their performance via the pep system . the supervisor will use this feedback , along with other performance data about the employee , to prepare a written evaluation of the employee ' s performance for the year . the employee and supervisor will then meet and discuss this evaluation which provides an objective measure of the employee ' s performance against expectations . the performance evaluation is an opportunity to discuss accomplishments , areas for improvement and goals for the next year . no overall performance rating will be designated . ? pep system open for feedback november 19 - december 7 ? performance discussions with supervisor december 10 - january 14 ? written evaluations due to hr january 15 training for all employees on how to use the pep system will be available via online tutorials . compensation increases in an employee ' s base pay for merit , promotion or equity can be recommended by an individual supervisor based on the employee ' s performance , current responsibilities and salary . division head approval is required . as always , incentive awards are paid at the discretion of the enron board compensation committee and the enron office of the chairman based on company and business unit performance . once bonus pools are approved , individual bonuses will be determined by division and department heads based on employee performance . relative talent reviews relative talent reviews will occur beginning january 16 , 2002 and will include discussions of managers and above . the focus is not on relative ranking but on identifying employees who best demonstrate the performance , skills and behaviors that are valued at enron . each division will identify its top 10 % and discuss the utilization of its top talent . employees who may be ready to assume greater responsibilities will be discussed . recommendations for promotions will be considered up through senior director . egs executive management will review vice presidents and managing directors and identify the top 10 % in this officer group . nomination for promotions to vice president and managing director levels will be made to the enron management committee , which will make final decisions on these promotions . if you have any questions about any aspect of this year - end process , i encourage you to contact your hr representative . gary

book - split update 4 / 25 / 2000 as we are nearing the deadline for the book - split project , i want to give you a status update . book - split completed separate cash & term books have been setup in enpower and global databases for every country pablo pissanetzky has written code to successfully transfer over 99 % of the deals into their proper regional books two dozen deals ( mainly annuities ) have been modified in production to transfer according to pablo ' s code all deals requiring manual intervention on go live date have been identified initial position report has been developed and tested for accuracy uncompleted communication to commercial of positions ( wed . april 26 ) presentation of the position report which allows commercial to view monthly peak / off - peak volumes by region ( wed . april 26 ) pcs by deal for each portfolio separate dprs and associated reports for the pool and bilateral portfolios modifications necessary for the settlements invoicing system transmission we are making progress on this effort although you have not seen any hard evidence . zhiyong wei is the it director in houston who is responsible for enpower development . we are working with pablo and zhiyong on several possibilities . as we have previously discussed , there is not the current capability to value the spreads as options , but we are testing the other scenarios . buy / resale this deal type has been disabled we are waiting for zhiyong ' s response as to its future functionality if any transmission pablo tested in the stage environment today after receiving minor assistance from zhiyong ability to book transmission deal without annuity leg ability to liquidate demand charge daily reflects long and short positions at the appropriate regions ( as forwards not options ) does not value the forward spread between the regional curves ( still testing ) variable cost treatment is still being tested forwards if deep in the money , we could enter intra - desk / inter - desk deals to reflect positions and p & l much time and it development resources have been spent to make use of the transmission functionality . after speaking with zhiyong , there evidently was a big push last year for the mtm of transmission . the latest version has been in the test environment for some time , but no one is currently testing it . it will take some attention to test it properly and will not be complete by the book - split deadline . as we established in our last meeting , the mtm of transmission is a separate project from the book - split . due to the complexity and amount of data involved in the book - split project itself , it is advisable that we incorporate the transmission second . further testing of the transmission will continue this week and by the end of the week we should have a decision on the most effective way to currently book transmission . please call or come by if you have any questions , todd hall

Your first example is a good one, because I really think it's even easier
currently :
1. Leave your current kernel as-is
2. Get the "alsa-driver" source rpm
3. Rebuild and install resulting packagesDrivers that are written to be easily compiled as modules (like ltmodem,
NVidia, ALSA etc.) can easily be repackaged separately as rpms and ported
as easily for various kernel rpms from the source rpm.Also, what you describe is sort of the opposite of what rpm packaging is in
my mind. I see it more as a "one size fits all" achievement in the general
case. And kernel isn't an exception (although there are packages optimized
for various processors) since they all come with just about all the modules
you'll ever need. Make that "one size fits many" then if you want ;-)Last but not least : The kernel is something I'm trying to keep away from
in my packaging since I really don't want to see newbies screwing up their
systems because of packages on my website... same goes for GNOME, KDE and
other major bits of the distribution since I also want people who happily
use my packages to be able to upgrade to the next Red Hat Linux release
without having their system turned into another Ximian mess.MatthiasPS: Yes Chris, I'm worried about not giving you too much work! Less in fact
since you can easily answer "freshrpms.net!" to people asking how to play
DVDs, right? ;-))))--

re : mpr for 6 / 20 / 00 ted , question 1 ) the investments in calme and apachi are booked on an accrual basis . i have had several meetings with commercial and accounting representatives over the last year and all have stated that any earnings are effectively reinvested back into the assets . therefore , the market values that are reflected on the mpr are actually book values . the book values are typically adjusted the last week of the month and are 1 month behind as the internation groups wait until the gl is closed before communicating the updated values . question 2 ) thanks for the heads - up on india . i spoke with sheila glover and we are now aware of the details behind rediff . com . we need to ensure that these positions are not accounted for on the dpr by india so that we do not double - report the p & l . the long - term solution is to establish a communication line for future investments . between sheila , donna lowry , and i we can develop a plan . question 3 ) the 3 bonds that you are referencing were purchased by jeff kinneman for jim easter . during our last conversation , jim told jeff that these are strategic investments and should not be reflected on the mpr . there is still some uncertainty / confusion as to when an investment is classified as merchant . we could insist that all publically traded investments not included in the equity books would qualify . having said that , i would like to know if the gas authority of india , ltd ( gail ) and europe ' s investment in mg are considered to be merchant investments . i will be on vacation this friday and all of next week so please include david maxwell on any responses . david and i will stay in touch so as to make adjustments as needed . thanks , todd from : ted murphy 06 / 22 / 2000 03 : 07 pm to : d todd hall / hou / ect @ ect cc : sally beck / hou / ect @ ect , rick buy subject : re : mpr for 6 / 20 / 00 mr . hall , i have just reviewed the merchant portfolio summary for 6 / 20 and have the following questions : 1 ) calme shows an asset of $ 291 . 9 mm and apachi shows an asset of $ 113 . 0 mm and they show no p & l for the year is this possible in a world of changing interest rates and equity premiums and commodity prices ? 2 ) india recently invested in an ipo ( rediff . com ) for which there was a simultaneous dash to buy and sell ( sounds like a merchant deal ) . where does this show up ? 3 ) there are several bonds ( publicly traded , registrered securities , housed in our prime broker accounts ) owned by various enron entities that i do not believe are on the dpr . shouldn ' t they be ? and if so , who is deciding not to include ? pls advise at your earliest convenience as you always do . thanks ted from : d todd hall 06 / 21 / 2000 01 : 16 pm to : rick buy / hou / ect @ ect , andrea v reed / hou / ect @ ect , sally beck / hou / ect @ ect , ted murphy / hou / ect @ ect , richard causey / corp / enron @ enron , carol jean marshall / hou / ect @ ect , raymond bowen / hou / ect @ ect , jeff skilling / corp / enron @ enron , jeff donahue / hou / ect @ ect , l ' sheryl hudson / hou / ect @ ect , monica reasoner / hou / ect @ ect , hope vargas / hou / ect @ ect , adarsh vakharia / hou / ect @ ect , joseph w sutton @ enron , michael s galvan / hou / ect @ ect , maria lebeau / hou / ect @ ect , wes colwell / hou / ect @ ect , mark frevert / na / enron @ enron , thomas myers / hou / ect @ ect cc : subject : mpr for 6 / 20 / 00

  Oops.
Um, my test was to tee to a fifo I didn't read from... resulting in the other
reader hanging around forever.... not realising that never-opened-for-reading
and opened-and-later-closed might be different.  Sensible behaviour has now been
observed.

mpeg2enc generates stats during the run, so I give each one an xterm.Thanks,

Date: Not suppliedNTT DoCoMo have released a paper on the use of human flesh as a networking
medium:     A device attached to a PDA can send and receive weak electrical signals
    through people, with human bodies as communications circuits, the paper
    said, citing sources close to the companies.     Apparel and handbags have their own conductivity, allowing an electrical
    connection to a PDA that can remain in one's pocket, the paper said.     In this way, people can exchange e-mail addresses, names and phone numbers

Date: 2002-10-06T18:12:47+01:00Security in cyberspace is a different kettle of fish compared to many computer
systems. Cyberspace entertainment only has to be useful to the majority of its
users --entertaining. That means it can tolerate a small amount of vandalism
still remain useful. This is quite unlike a system required for commerce. We
still have a headache of course, but at least we only need to keep the system
around 90 percent clean, rather than 99.99 percent. Of course weï¿½ll still
strive to stamp out corruption, but our system failure threshold is more
achievable than one might at first assume.

Yep 450 yoyo's for a wee one, thats a lot of fish food. And I might not even
get one in the Republic. An Abssynian you say looks like the pokemon
Persian? That would qualify nicely.Thanks for the advice ladies, I now have TWO options. At least I still have

This'll put it in that particular order for ya.  You can also chose to order it by name, etc by changing this field.

Hello again. I tried all the suggestions for the PCTel driver and at the end of it, everything still goes smoothly until I type "make" after I get the output from the ./configure. However, there were a couple of things I noticed along the way. After typing
* cp configs/kernel-2.4...config .config
* make oldconfig
* make dep
The 2nd to last line I got back said that the modversions.h file was not updated. When I looked at this path to the modversions.h file, it was 281 lines and every line started with a # mark. Is it the case that nothing is read on a line after a # mark (or am I just thinking of another language?) and so should I delete the # at certain places?Also, when I was in the pctel directory and typed "make", I noticed that a different subdirectory is taken to a different modversions.h file. Inside this other file, there's nothing at all. And so I moved the modversions.h file with 281 lines to the empty modversions.h file - and got a different reply after "make". The output after I moved the file over mostly looked like this:
/usr/src/linux-2.4.18-3/linux/modversions.h:11:33: linux/modules/adb.ver: No such file or directory
/usr/src/linux-2.4.18-3/linux/modversions.h:12:37: linux/modules/af_ax25.ver: No such file or directory
/usr/src/linux-2.4.18-3/linux/modversions.h:13:36: linux/modules/af_ipx.ver: No such file or directoryThe odd lines being the path and the first half of the other lines are what's written after the # in the modversions.h file. Should there be a file at each of these (one at each of the 281 lines of the file) that I'd have to compile/make?It's taken plenty of elbow grease, but I'm glad it hasn't gone smoothly, it's a good learning experience. Again, any help is appreciated. Thanks, Eric_____________________________________________________________

recall that the button that is used as "Target button" is
configurable but I haven't had enough caffeine to recall where
that is.--Hal

more details on kern river expansion williams to expand kern river by 124 , 500 dth / d kern river gas transmission , a subsidiary of williams , said it planned on filing an application yesterday with ferc to add 124 , 500 dth / d of additional firm transportation capacity to its 922 - mile pipeline system . the company said the california expansion project will not only provide additional natural gas capacity from wyoming to markets in california , but also will provide an opportunity for williams to offer significantly reduced rates for firm transportation based on the recent approval by ferc of kern river ' s extended term rate program . " a combination of rapid growth and the development of new gas - fired power generation facilities in california is fueling expansion of the system , " said kirk morgan , director of business development for kern river and northwest pipeline . the project includes construction of three new compressor stations , an additional compressor at an existing facility in wyoming , restaging a compressor in utah , and upgrading two meter stations . kern river said the $ 80 million project is targeted to be complete by may 1 , 2002 . the company said demand for firm transportation on kern river was driven by several factors : the diversion of canadian gas supplies to markets in the midwest from the pacific region ; increased production in the rocky mountain basin ; strong economic growth in kern river ' s market areas ; and increased demand from gas - fired electric generation facilities . williams said it anticipates holding an open season later this year to determine the level of market interest in a second expansion of the kern river pipeline . " the demand for competitively priced transportation to markets in nevada and california continues to grow . at the same time , gas producers in the rocky mountain basin are stepping up production . an expansion on kern river in 2003 could help bring that production to market , " said morgan .

Sometimes I find that if I don't try to write code in the least space
possible or for example become lazy and say--Bad style
Bool q;If(q)
	When I should say
If(q==true)

Or--Bad optimizationint a;
a=some_function();
if(a) <--which apparently works but is 'bad coding style'.That's what I mean about letting the programming tools take care
of the coding.... it's considered 'bad' apparently.Or for example say you are writing a loop that saysFor(a=0;a>--
