command center: August 2010
https://commandcenter.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 27, 2010. Except for the TV show "The Big Bang Theory", popular culture gets science wrong. We all know that. But there's a way it tends to get science wrong that upsets me more than most. That is when it misuses the tools of science by willfully ignoring what science actually means. In short, mathematics may look funny if you don't understand it but that doesn't make it funny if you misuse it in ignorance. What's wrong with them? Again, they miss the point about the one true periodic tabl...

command center: Less is exponentially more
https://commandcenter.blogspot.com/2012/06/less-is-exponentially-more.html
Monday, June 25, 2012. Less is exponentially more. Here is the text of the talk I gave at the Go SF meeting in June, 2012. This is a personal talk. I do not speak for anyone else on the Go team here, although I want to acknowledge right up front that the team is what made and continues to make Go happen. I'd also like to thank the Go SF organizers for giving me the opportunity to talk to you. I was asked a few weeks ago, "What was the biggest surprise you encountered rolling out Go? Keep that idea in mind.

command center: June 2006
https://commandcenter.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 11, 2006. I can't find this on the web, so here follows a note I wrote in 1991. Of an odd event in my computing career. There's no such thing as bad publicity, the saying goes. Unless, of course, you have no interest in being a public figure. That's where Richard Stallman and I start to diverge. A friend called early Saturday to report some good news; groggily,. I countered with a feeling of impending doom. I had to spend the. At the Lab for Computer Science and took that as the kind of honor.

command center: September 2011
https://commandcenter.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 18, 2011. We open in a well-lit corporate conference room. A meeting has been running for a while. Lots has been accomplished but time is running out.]. The door opens and a tall, tow-headed twenty-something guy in glasses walks in, carrying a Mac Air and a folder.]. Oh, here he is. This is Richard. I asked him to join us today. Glad he could make it. He's got some great user experience ideas. Dick's done a lot of seminal UX work for us. Absolutely. It's a lousy idea. You misunderstand&...

command center: Esmerelda's Imagination
https://commandcenter.blogspot.com/2011/12/esmereldas-imagination.html
Saturday, December 31, 2011. An actress acquaintance of mine—let's call her Esmerelda—once said, "I can't imagine being anything except an actress." To which the retort was given, "You can't be much of an actress then, can you? I was reminded of this exchange when someone said to me about Go, "I can't imagine programming in a language that doesn't have generics." My retort, unspoken this time, was, "You can't be much of a programmer, then, can you? Usual noise at bottom of page. View my complete profile.

command center: April 2006
https://commandcenter.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 09, 2006. Yesterday afternoon was just the right sort of weather for sitting in the park, so towards sunset Renee and I headed down to the little park below us, which has a view across the water and a lovely, long fish pond with a stone bridge across it. The plan was to sit on a bench and watch the light fade, sunset itself being hidden by the hills behind. The sunset strengthened, the colors deepened. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
