Daring Fireball Linked List: October 2007

Sauf qu'avec OS X, on avait enfin une plateforme pour laquelle on pouvait compter de base sur Java. Maintenant il est plus facile d'avoir un Java à jour sous Debian que sous OS X : un comble. Et la meilleure plateforme pour développer sous Java reste Windows... il faut dire que Gosling développe sous NetBeans, dont les performances sont réellement multiplateforme : à part sous Tiger, où NetBeans réussit l'exploit d'être plus lent que d'habitude.Java on Mac OS X has gotten so bad that James Gosling, creator of Java and Sun’s developer platform CTO, has switched from a MacBook to a notebook running Solaris. What an outrage that the best platform to develop for Sun’s Java is Sun’s own operating system.

Uncovered: Celebrating Women in New York City

Uncovered: Celebrating Women in New York City: A woman's right to appear topless in public was legalized in New York in 1992. Since New York is the only state with such a law, forty-nine out of fifty states deem it illegal for a woman to remove her shirt in public. However, men are free to take off their shirts with impunity. Challenging this inequity between the sexes is the purpose of my work. There has been a recent shift in America towards a socially conservative philosophy, so right after Janet Jackson's breast was exposed at the Super Bowl, I started asking women to appear topless in New York City. I wanted to document what the Federal Communications Commission called "great outrage among the American people" over a bare breast. But soon I realized there was very little outrage. Of the thousands of people who saw the women topless, most reacted with enthusiasm, humor, and encouragement. This project has been featured by the Today Show, Countdown with Keith Olbermann, The BBC, the New York Daily News, The Rochester Democrat and Chronicle, WOR Radio, CBS Radio, NY1 News, and the Foley Gallery in Chelsea.
Zidane headbutt outrage: new video evidence | The Register
by springnet
Terrific. For the record, we at Vulture Central believe that - contrary to current wisdom - the Materazzi-felling incident was provoked not by references to Zidane's mother and his Algerian ancestry, but rather the suggestion that Italian wine may be of e
Suicide Bombing in Israel: On Blogs, the Media, and Coverage of Violence in Africa
by jenbrea
Why do I list the names of the dead before the usual talk about the geopolitical implications, the responses of shock and outrage from heads of state, the defiant statements by Hamas and Islamic Jihad? Because there are three things about the violence in Israel, or more to the point, media coverage of it, that have been bothering me of late, but especially since I've been reading more and more blogs from the people whose lives are most affected by it...

Robert Accettura’s Fun With Wordage » Blog Archive » Intelligent Bookmarking [Draft]

Bookmarks suck. There I said it [5 seconds for public outrage]. I rarely use them. Instead I use the auto-complete functionality of the URL bar, and I know I’m not the only one. I decided to take a little time and discuss why bookmarks suck, pinpoint the problem, and suggest a solution. Why? Because bookmarks shouldn’t suck. They should be useful.

Telegraph : Accept that the terrorist threat is here to stay by Tom Utley
by mikepower
After every terrorist outrage, somebody in a suit and tie will pop up somewhere to condemn the perpetrators as "cowardly" and "senseless". Both words are wrong.
