LedNews -- Example RSS perl script
Topic: Technology 10:07 am EDT, Sep 17, 2003

] Someone asked me this morning how to parse the
] MemeStreams RSS feed. So I present this. This is a simple
] Perl script which uses XML::RSS to parse the headlines
] from a number of news sites, including MemeStreams, and
] post them to a Prolite LED sign. There is a lot more in
] that RSS object then a title, but hopefully you can use
] this as a starting point for your projects.

Probably "just cute" at this point. It shows promise but doesn't seem terribly useful (to me) at this point.

The end of the open internet...

] So, between spam, anti-spam blacklists, rogue packets,
] never-forgetting search engines, viruses, old machines,

I agree that this seems to be happening now but I don't think it is by any means a foregone conclusion. Rather than throwing up our hands and giving up, we should try to squelch the sources of this noise traffic.

At CMU, my friend's boss has started talking about fixing spam via PGP; if your mail to me isn't signed with a key I know, you get a mail back saying it will be queued for a day or something before I'll look at it. If you reply to that mail, its sent on through immediately. We're talking about implementing it both in MTAs and also mail servers.

I will try to blog more about this as it develops.

Torvalds Slams SCO
Topic: Technology 12:56 pm EDT, Aug 22, 2003

] eWEEK: For its part though, SCO has said that there are
] so many lines of code, and a variety of applications and
] devices that use that code, that simply removing the
] offending code would not be technically feasible or
] possible and would not solve the problem. Do you agree?
]
] Torvalds: They are smoking crack. Their slides said there
] are [more than] 800,000 lines of SMP code that are
] "infringing," and they are just off their rocker. The SMP
] code was written by a number of Linux people I know well
] (I did a lot of the SMP IRQ scalability myself,
] personally), so their claims are just ludicrous. And they
] claim they own JFS [journaled file system technology]
] too. Whee. They're not shy about claiming ownership of
] other people's code
