Working on deadline today, a big project which has to be done by year-end... and so we celebrated the winter solstice with one of the coldest days of the year, freezing with a bitter breeze. I marked it with one of my faster Rockstore rides, 1:43, not bad considering my teeth were chattering :)
Ole Reads I: Testing, testing. A crummy headline for a great article, the best defensive of the current health reform plans that I've yet read. I'm a skeptic; it seems to me that these plans don't hit at the core of why healthcare is so expensive, and I am always opposed to government solutions. But the analog to how government solutions helped farming become more efficient in the U.S. - something of which I was entirely ignorant, previously - is compelling. I was happy to read this because it gives some reason for hope; it looks like some version of one of these plans is going to be passed...
I totally agree with this: Apple is a Bad Example. Using Apple - or Microsoft, or Google, or Facebook - to make a point about startup companies generally doesn't work. There is only one Apple, and what works for them does not work for everyone else.
Ford's Wired Fleet: WiFi Hotspots on Four Wheels. I'm confused about this; seems like WiFi in a car has a pretty limited usefulness, considering everyone can just use cellular modems. Give us more drinkholders instead!
