What to do
Sunday, October 12, 2008
- People may be embarrassed to admit that they don't know as much about computers as their parents think they do.[1] Young people's use of computers may be increasingly recreational and social.[1]
- So who's minding the store? I think criminals had a twenty-five year head start. And I suspect men, and in general not women, feel they must write software. I don't have enough computer science education to hold a light on a candle but I think some people are more talented than others.
- Google PageRank gives en.wikipedia.org 8 out of 10. Why? 98% of Wikipedia users are users and not editors. They depend on the 2% of us who write this encyclopedia to know what they know. Believe it or not Wikipedia is the only encyclopedia recommended by the Free Software Foundation,[2] at one time home of Richard Stallman who invented the idea of a free encyclopedia. I worry that consensus-based creations that allow anonymous and Internet editing belong in utopias, not reality, and not in the world's de facto primary reference work.
