New Scientist: Hubble Helps Determine Universe's Age. Between 13 and 14 billion years old. What do you get something that old on its birthday?(2:21 PM) ¶

 
Eclecticity: Dan Shafer's Web Log: "As far as I know, this will be the first development tool other than professional-grade CodeWarrior from Metrowerks that will allow Macintosh programmers to create software in their favorite world and then deploy it across all other popular platforms without a coding change! As this comes to fruition, it will indeed be the Macintosh developer's Holy Grail."

Huh. I'll have to take a look at this...(1:55 PM) ¶

After I got home from work, I hung out with Jack when he went to play with the neighborhood kids. He's one of two toddlers in the group, the other being a 2 year old girl from India (or Pakistan). At one point he walked up to her and took her hand and the two of them walked around holding hands. It just about killed me it was so cute. Wish I had had a camera at that exact moment.

That's why we have kids. For moments like that.

And for the moments when they get really rich and buy you things. We live for those too. :)(11:44 PM) ¶

O'Reilly Network: XP on the PowerPC [Apr. 24, 2002] An interesting idea but I'm running Win2K under VirtualPC on a 500mhZ TiBook and it's DAMN slow. I get done what I need to get done (mostly, trying to run vmware causes a processor exception) but it's slow slow slow.(11:06 PM) ¶

I've been going deep on accessibility, xhtml, and css in an attempt to pull together a set of comprehensive guidelines for our projects at work. If anyone is interested in seeing what I've compiled and, better still, commenting on them, here they are.(10:36 PM) ¶

The Selling of an Energy Policy. Al Gore writes passionately (really!) about the Bush Administration's abysmal record on the environment. It's clearly a trial balloon for a 2004 run for the Presidency but it's also a direct, scathing critique of Bush and his cronies. Gore is, to me, an unfortunate figure. He's incredibly smart and I believe he would make a good President. However, I do not think he would make a great President. In fact, I worry that the left has no real good people who can make a strong bid in 2004. I worry that we're going to get another Mondale or Dukakis rather than someone who was able to do what Clinton did in '92. But we desperately need this as Bush is already showing his true colors with the War to Drag On and On, the trashing of the environment, and his unfortunate stance towards Israel (see Carter's op-ed for a much more sane approach). But 9/11 has thrust perceived greatness on this man who simply doesn't deserve it.(6:16 PM) ¶
