Steep Learning Curve (Dec 31 2004 03:52 GMT) - It certainly can be temperamental. I found that I basically needed to restart it for each export I needed. That said, it is one of the better tools I found in terms of what it does, even if not in terms of reliability and ease in usage. ;) However, I'm very serious that experience is far better. |

Индонезия: число жертв цунами может вырасти до 400 тысяч человек (Dec 31 2004 03:52 GMT) - Число погибших в индонезийской провинции Ачех, расположенной в непосредственной близости от эпицентра воскресного катастрофического землетрясения может составить до 400 тысяч человек, передает РИА "Новости". С таким заявлением выступил в малайзийской столице посол Индонезии Х.Русдихарджо. По его словам, такая оценка сделана на основании предпринятой индонезийскими властями авиационной разведки. Исследование с воздуха не позволило обнаружить никаких признаков жизни в таких местах, как город Молабо, расположенный в 149 километрах от эпицентра землетрясения, и остров Симелуэ, находящийся от эпицентра примерно на таком же расстоянии, сказал посол. |

Bram Cohen and BitTorrent (Dec 31 2004 03:50 GMT) - Clive Thompson's Wired article on Bram Cohen and BitTorrent is a good read, explaining a bit about how the technology works (pretty simple, but completely unknown to me before reading the article) and a bit more about how Cohen himself works. I tend to shy away from the filesharing networks, but it's been pretty much impossible to avoid noticing the excitement that BitTorrent has generated over the past year. Now that I understand the technology a bit better, it's clear why it is so exciting -- BitTorrent solves a problem that has plagued filesharing, that of asymmetric bandwidth (or the fact that most people's internet connections allow them to download much faster than they can upload). One problem that BitTorrent did not deal with, though, has turned out to be its Achilles heel: the need for centralized sites which help organize the network, sites like SuprNova that are ripe for the picking by organizations that are threatened by (mostly) decentralized content distribution networks. |
