The Geek Gap: April 2007

http://thegeekgap.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html

Friday, April 27, 2007. Ready or Not, You've Got Open Source. Bill and I spent Monday this week at the Linux on Wall Street conference in New York City (right after the ASJA. Conference, where we presented on technology writing). What was fascinating was that all the sessions were about one thing: the legality of using open source software, such as Linux. But there are also many others, in widespread use. They talked about things like the " beer license. I might have guessed some lawsuit-shy companies wo...

The Geek Gap: September 2006

Sunday, September 24, 2006. Take Off Your Engineer Hat.". Some have since questioned whether this comment was coercion. No one, however, questioned the underlying assumption, so let's question it now: Why would an engineer and a manager, working for the same company on the same project not want the same things? Wouldn't both want the company to be successful? Wouldn't both dread a space flight catastrophe? The assumption that they would not is the essence of the Geek Gap. Links to this post.

Wednesday, February 28, 2007. Geek Gap on CN8 TV. Hey, here's our appearance on CN8 Philadelphia TV program "Money Matters Today" with Mary Caraccioli, Monday, Feb. 26, 2007.

The Geek Gap: December 2006

http://thegeekgap.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html

Saturday, December 23, 2006. I grokked when I shoulda grepped! Don'tcha just hate that when it happens? Thank goodness one of the listeners emailed me (Thanks, Duane! So I can at least own up to it here! But in my own defense, this interview was just the day after my daughter. Alyssa gave birth to a beautiful baby girl - Julia Marie. Mom, baby, and new dad John are all fine, healthy, and having a lovely time getting used to their new life at home. Besides the fact that I'm getting old fast, that is.

Saturday, March 31, 2007. Soon to come: Robotic Rights Legislation. Do your robotic devices feel? Do they have rights? When you use them, do you need their permission? This may sound like science fiction, and it's indeed been a question asked in science fiction already for decades. For instance, anyone who reads science fiction can tell you about the Three Laws of Robotics. As put forward by author Isaac Asimov. In his short story Runaround. Spawned several new ideas. Taken from Clarke's Wikipedia entry].

The Geek Gap: November 2006

http://thegeekgap.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html

Wednesday, November 29, 2006. Funny thing about that New York Times. Article. It took the position that technical support people are arrogant, and that arrogance is their default setting. So much so that, when business people find the rare non-arrogant specimen, they hang onto him or her for dear life. What would it be like to be a garden variety small business owner with garden variety computer problems? I spend a lot of time listening to techies complain about the clueless users (" lusers. But perhaps ...

Thursday, January 25, 2007. Geek Gap on NPR. I guess we let the holidays and the whole new year get away from us - time to get back to blogging! We're also in some pretty good company. Just a month or so before, Apple co-founder Steve Wozniac - a.k.a. "The Woz" - was Kojo's guest. Wow.boggles my geek mind to think that my butt shared space with molecules left by the inventor of the personal computer! Http:/ wamu.org/programs/kn/07/01/16.php#12965.

The Geek Gap: October 2006

http://thegeekgap.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html

Monday, October 30, 2006. What Interns Are Up To. So last week I told you how we'd discovered The Geek Gap. Being discussed in a discussion group of the blog Joel on Software. The "Joel" was Joel Spolsky and the funny thing was we'd just watched him on the Documentary Channel. Fantastic channel, by the way! The documentary was called Aardvark'd: 12 Weeks with Geeks. And takes place at Fog Creek Software. Anyhow, the coolest thing about it was the software they wound up creating. Called Copilot. Is how Bi...
