Tim Bray has a fun programming challenge that I thought I'd relax with tonight. I just hacked up the most obvious sequential implementation using C# 3.0. [ed: jcheng has an even more compact version over here .] Total elapsed time over the ~225MB log...

I just got back from a Microsoft offsite event up near Canada. The organizers invited Clay Shirky to speak. His talk was fantastic - high content density, lots of stuff I didn't know peppered with truths I did know. I'm a fan.

Doug has posted a very unexpected missive around his relationship with Apple products. Maybe I'm delusional, but I could swear the reason I bonded with the Mac in 1985 was that it was better, not that it was counter-culture (I didn't see the Ridley Scott...

I doubt that I'll write another book - I'm enjoying the other side of the production line way too much to endure another book. However, I do love to write forewords for other people's books. You get the creative rush without the hideous weight of a manuscript...

Rory's cartoon portraying a 3 way grudge match between Petzold, Anderson, and Griffiths/Sells can now begin in earnest. I saw Ian and Sells' book at Barnes and Noble this weekend, so folks can now start to read in earnest. FWIW, I got the Zen from the...
