Snow what? Blanketing the world with Linux | Tech meanderings
https://dwmcallister.wordpress.com/2007/01/22/snow-what
Rummaging around strategic technologies. Blanketing the world with Linux. January 22, 2007. I’m sitting in the middle of Missouri, on a visit with my son. And it’s snowing. Now some of you probably know I live in the Silicon Valley, where we seldom see snow. (Well, last year, but that was just a mean, spiteful, ice-pellet type of snow, out to do mischief to our wonderful freeway system sarcasm intended ). Given the announcement of the. Those of us who remember the UNIX days know firsthand the risks of va...

Rummaging around strategic technologies. January 26, 2007. Everyone has guilty pleasures. Whether it’s an extra scoop of chocolate ice cream, or checking out the page three girls, we all have certain things we do. On Fridays, I’ll admit to two. Every Friday, a newsletter called “ Client Server News. In my press training classes, oh so long ago, O’Gara was the example used to describe a true investigative reporter, one you would only feel comfortable talking to if you were on the top of your game...

On being open (source) in Mind | Tech meanderings
https://dwmcallister.wordpress.com/2007/01/15/on-being-open-source-in-mind
Rummaging around strategic technologies. On being open (source) in Mind. January 15, 2007. When programmers on the Internet can read, redistribute and modify the source for a piece of software, it evolves. People improve it, people adapt it, people can fix the bugs. And this can happen at a speed that, if one is used to the slow pace of conventional software development, seems astonishing. – The Open Source Initiative. First, let’s review:. Open source rules are, simply enough:. Allow Source code access.

Hindsight – the ultimate in vision correction. | Tech meanderings
https://dwmcallister.wordpress.com/2007/01/03/hindsight-the-ultimate-in-vision-correction
Rummaging around strategic technologies. Hindsight – the ultimate in vision correction. January 3, 2007. Back in those exciting days when evangelizing Linux and open source was still exciting, I almost got lynched for a simple statement at a Linux conference. The statement: “ Linux will only be important when no one cares. Hindsight being what it is, I’d like to think I was right, at least on servers, in embedded devices. Let’s hold judgement on desktops for a moment. So what, you say? It’s not tri...

So, you want to open source that code… | Tech meanderings

Rummaging around strategic technologies. So, you want to open source that code…. January 9, 2007. Over the past few years, many companies have decided, for various reasons, to release programs into the wild world of open source. Some few have done it well, more have flopped. So, in the interest of goodness, I’ve decided to drop my list of things to think about, and hopefully get some feedback on what other things should be included, ignored, expanded; you get the idea. So, with litle ado. 721 Would you c...

Exegesis the first: Thoughts on Openness | Tech meanderings
https://dwmcallister.wordpress.com/2007/01/02/exegesis-the-first-thoughts-on-openness
Rummaging around strategic technologies. Exegesis the first: Thoughts on Openness. January 2, 2007. With few doubts, the buzz on open during the last few years has obscured the basics of openness in a wash of white noise. Please note this is not just a concept of open source (though open source plays a role in openness; it is about a broader concept of open). Openness in technology is a component of interactions. So let’s consider some of the degrees of openness. As a communication vehicle. 1 Programming...
