Zulu Kane

the chronicle of a middle-aged filmmaker studying software development, who thinks creativity is too good an idea to be reserved for artists, microbloggers, colleagues, hamsters, bookmarkers, lifestreamers, losers, emailers, archivists or subscribers.

The shuttle’s contrail
capped with sunset
We gather in the warm dusk
To watch earthmen
play with matches

another September 11th:

An American-backed coup d’état in Chile overthrows the democratically elected President Salvador Allende and his government.  Allende would commit suicide the same day.

In his place, the country was ruled with a military junta/dictatorship run by Augusto Pinochet.  

The new regime had a record of human rights violations.  Tens of thousands of Chilean citizens would be deprived of rights, torturted, and killed from 1973 to its demise seventeen years later in 1990.

September 11, 1973 - 38 years ago today.

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.

Forget the surveys speaking of name recognition. If everybody knew about (some celebrity) in a week, why can’t they know about (a new brand)?

Google is also run by geeks, and geeks generally find software patents extremely offensive. The best thing to happen to software-patent-disliking geeks might be for Google to get their ass kicked a bit by patent litigation so they’re motivated to challenge the patent system more seriously than any of us ever could.
