“Linux and the Emerging Church: how decentralized authority, high-identity communities, and counter-culture cache led to the mainstreaming of formerly subversive alternatives.”
Have a spare hour to squirm a little? Andrew Bacevich on Bill Moyers Journal.
(#)Off to the studio this week to record a Christmas album. It's approximately 158 degrees in Burbank so I'm in an appropriately wintery mood, of course. Any suggestions for how to invoke the spirit o' the (not yet in) season?

(#)"First, we will set up a single goal to represent educational success, which will take four years to achieve no matter what is being taught. We will attach an economic reward to it that seldom has anything to do with what has been learned. We will urge large numbers of people who do not possess adequate ability to try to achieve the goal, wait until they have spent a lot of time and money, and then deny it to them. We will stigmatize everyone who doesn't meet the goal. We will call the goal a 'BA.'" [link]

Bandwidth is limited, people.
What, too niche?
No, no. Don’t worry about this, Mike. I have it totally under control.
We’re forming a single file line to the right, people!
The problem is that the title itself too clearly defines the obviously biased stereotypes leaving nowhere for the discussion to proceed. Now, if you want to start a real discussion, let’s talk about the difference between poa and bent grass on golf greens, and how it affects the roll of a putt in the morning versus the afternoon.
I won’t read a post with this title unless Aly writes it like a Dr. Seuss poem.
Or, perhaps we could make up limericks:
There once was a system named Linux…
“That was coded for functions, not gimmicks…”
It’s counter-culture cache
Was really a smash,
“Launching hundreds of open-source mimics.”
My profoundest apologies for that.
Wow. Just, wow.
You are my new favorite people.
i love the tubes.
