Links for 11 August 2009 through 14 August 2009

13 August 2009 in Daily Links by del.icio.us | No comments

Stilgherrian’s links for 11 August 2009 through 14 August 2009, gathered with care and lightly dusted with sugar:

Formal Methods in Modern Critical-Software Development | The Abnormal Distribution: I needed an explanation of Formal Methods in programming, and this one ain’t bad.
Telstra admits to exchange access deception | iTnews.com.au: It turns out that, yes, Telstra did tell other ISPs there was no room in their exchanges for their broadband equipment, when there was.
Narrate Your Work | Scripting News: Dave Winer nails it. “Twitter is at least a dress rehearsal for the news system of the future.” His catchphrase “Narrate Your Work” resonates with me: that’s precisely how I use Twitter, and it’s a sensible work practice for any distributed team.
Are you still marketing like its 1999? | Media Hunter: Online is now your customer’s “number one media priority”, because they spend more time online than with newspapers or TV or radio. Is it yours?
On Language – How Fail Went From Verb to Interjection | NYTimes.com: An excellent summary of the history of FAIL.

Fifty days from today is my 50th birthday. Yes, Five Zero. This is the first in a series of blog posts to celebrate that milestone.

The Edict returns tonight

16 March 2010 in Notes, The 9pm Edict

I’m mostly recovered from my illness, so The 9pm Edict returns tonight. Yes, on Tuesday and Thursday this week rather than the originally-planned Monday and Wednesday, just because. There’s still a couple hours left to post an audio comment on episode 4. Skype to “stilgherrian” or phone +61 2 8011 3733.
