Reminder for lunch today. Please come around 12:15p. Owen should arrive at
12:30p with the expectation to discuss distributed javascript agent systems.
I temporarily took Owen off of disc...@sfcomplex.org this morning so I
could send this reminder.
If you can't make it, please consider emailing me a favorite Owen rant. In
the loose-spirit of a Festschrift (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Festschrift),
we are compiling a list of Owen Densmore Rants. Rants will be organized and
numbered and presented to Owen. We'll have some notepads on hand to capture
some of these today. For example:
1. Python and whitespace
2. Semicolons
3. Academic research papers behind paywalls
4. why can't the fucking civilians learn to write code
5. math is second class citizen in email and browsers
6. Marketing guys taking over Apple / Silicon Valley
7. why can't civilians manage the subject lines of email threads?
8. Medicare
9. lack of coalition government in US
10. why can't we get multi-pass voting (AV vs FTPT)
11. why can't I get an android device without all the crap from the
mobile phone operators
12. cell phone plans
13. why can't we just move to nuclear energy
14. walled garden of apple
15. Israel, Palestine and UN
16. password-based authentication is broken
17. EU, monetary union without politcal union
18. philosophy is dead
19. civilians can't manage their DNS
20. European phone compatibility
21. lack of video recording of talks at SF_X
22. apps vs webapps
23. why can't civilians figure out joyent
24. Python dependencies
