If you are offended by my harsh language….sorry ’bout that chief. I ain’t done with this blog and chances are it may or may not get more harsh as I continue. It just depends on how pissed I get as I think about it.

The down-and-dirty synopsis…Linux developers are starving to death so they have to get “real” jobs. Now, before you go thinking that I am attacking this author, stop right now. I really like this guy and he is doing what he thinks he needs to do in order to help. I hope it does help, because here and there he has a valid point…but before you go passing the hat for homeless software writers, give me a chance to tell my side of it.

Stupid Online Advertising, Part 12,459 | Bayosphere
A local fitness company is running an advertisement on the Chronicle’s site. It covers the top of the article, and there’s a little “X” in the corner that supposedly lets you remove the ad.
But after repeatedly clicking it and then having the ad reappear, I want to urge the Chronicle to try something else. I have no problem with online advertising. But this is beyond annoying.

Been there and done that and didn’t go back.

These news outlets need to learn that the internet is a big place with easy access. Not like the local newspaper which used to be the only game in town. When I run across one of these sites I make a mental note to not go back for a while. Most of the worst offenders learn in a short while or seem to as the offending popunder/over/in the middle of is usually gone by the time I forget about it and go back. Sometimes not but as I said the internet is a big place and most news isn’t just at one place any more.

Learn, earn, or burn…

This looks like a useful tool. Certainly one to bookmark with the hurricane coming in who knows where. Took a pen and laid over the path and what shows timeline wise on this map seems to be going in a straight line for New Orleans. Hope they are boarded up good…

I think I have pointed to this article before. Just found it from a link and reread it and felt it needed to be pointed to again. Well written and informative.

Interesting. A little over the top, but then this IS from the guy that rode a 580 lb 1.2 million dollar bike around the us in the early 90’s…

The Huffington Post | The Blog
Confidential Sources

Asking investigative reporters to work without the ability to keep sources confidential is like asking a special prosecutor to do his job without the power of the subpoena.

In the case of “outed” CIA agent Valerie Plame, this reality has obviously escaped the comprehension of a fanatically zealous special prosecutor, Patrick Fitzgerald, and a judicial hooligan named Hogan – Judge Thomas.
