- David Weinberger: »The most important tacit knowledge isn't simply explicit knowledge that hasn't yet been uttered. Humans aren't databases just waiting for the right queries to be run. The tacit knowledge that lets a senior technician diagnose problems faster and more accurately than others, or the tacit knowledge that lets a CFO see in 10 seconds why a proposed merger is unlikely to work, is emergent knowledge. |

At last night's Thursday meeting Betsy Devine said she picked her candidate by research on the Web. Had one predicted that you could do that, a year ago, someone would have called that wild optimism.Source: Dave Winer's Thoughts from Thursday meeting Oh, come on! |

- Well I certainly understand why he can't reveal the source. There's no reason to throw journalistic ethics out the window completely. This entire situation provides a perfect demonstration of how backstabbing this Administration can be. Novak is one of the few journalists that has stood by the Shrub and his cronies and consistently defended them through all of their folly. Now he has been chosen as the sacrifical lamb to "leak" a story that could potentially land him in jail. |

- princeton SunnComm Technologies, Inc. announced yesterday morning it would sue first-year graduate student John Halderman over his recent critique of the company's new CD copy-protection method, but by the end of the day SunnComm president and CEO Peter Jacobs said he changed his mind. Jacobs said in an interview late last night that a successful lawsuit would do little to reverse the damage done by the paper Halderman published Monday about his research, and any suit would likely hurt the research community by making computer scientists think twice about researching copy-protection technology. "I don't want to be the guy that creates any kind of chilling effect on research," Jacobs said. SunnComm plans to make that announcement this morning. |
