I've been playing Dragon Age 2 on both on both my Mac and the XBox - and I have to say, it's been easier on the Mac. Why?
|
In DAO, you could run a lot of the combats as a button mashing exercise. In DA2, right through Act 2, you really need to run things more tactically. On the Mac (or PC), that's far easier. You can have each character target a specific enemy much, much more easily. Either way though, I'm enjoying the game quite a bit.

The whole genre of sites such as Digg seems to be fading. Reddit is suffering a brain drain, and over at Digg, even the founder doesn't use it much. Computerworld explains why:
Getting on the front page of Digg was everything, because the site's millions of users used to read the front page like it was the morning paper. The early movers who collected a lot of friends were able to get even more friends by getting on the front page. A Digg aristocracy emerged. Influence on Digg became a winner-take-all system, with the majority locked out of meaningful participation.
Which made it not terribly different than any arbitrary news site - editors promote stories either way, it's just that the Digg system involved a more ad hoc set of editors who had self selected at some point in time. Even if you posted a story before one of the editors did, you just wouldn't get the votes - they would. That drives a kind of "meh, why participate" mindset, which in turn closes the circle of participation even more. Rinse repeat a few times, and you effectively have an old style writer/editor cycle.
Their handling of messaging just exacerbated things; follow the link for that bit. At the end of the day, I think Facebook became what Digg could have been.

Sometimes, a seemingly inocuous decision has long shadows. Consider the rolling blackouts in Japan - which are exacerbated by choices made well over a century ago:
The AEG equipment produced electricity at Europe's 50Hz (hertz, or cycles per second) standard while the General Electric gear matched the U.S. 60Hz standard. That probably didn't seem important at the time -- after all, light bulbs are happy on either frequency -- but the impact of those decisions is being seen today. All of eastern Japan, including Tokyo and the disaster-struck region to the north, is standardized on 50Hz supply while the rest of the country uses 60Hz.
Without enough changing stations (they only have enough to handle 1 GW), they can't share power across that divide. Makes you wonder how many "we really ought to update this" meetings took place over the last century that ended with "nah, we have other priorities right now". Now relate that sort of thing to wherever you work and the legacy systems you have lying around. Less critical to be sure, but still....

I had a fairly epic "if it can go wrong, it will" sort of day yesterday - here's what happened:
- Leave Vegas on a RedEye flight (I consider that to be a mistake I made)
- Leave Minneapolis (I was flying Delta) the next morning. Flight develops electrical trouble, diverts to Madison, Wisconsin
- Go to breakfast after Delta announces it's on them, down the corridor
- While I'm there, they rebook a few passengers who waited onto a flight to DCA. The rest of us end up on a 3:30 flight back to Minneapolis, connecting to a flight that arrives at BWI at 10:30
- Pull out the work laptop, thinking I'll get work done. Said laptop won't boot up
- Finally board flight back to Minneapolis, wait there for 2 hours. Fill one of them with a conference call
- Finally fly home
- Arrive home, remember that I emptied some extra supplies from my bag - one of which is a spare power supply. Discover that the thing that broke was the power supply I decided to take
It was that sort of day.

Apparently, taking the redeye from Las Vegas wasn't enough excitement. I was dozing off on my connection from Minneapolis to BWI when the flight attendant announced that the plane had "an electrical problem", and we were diverting to Madison. I wasn't worried, since there wasn't an obvious problem. When we got here there were emergency vehicles all down the runway, and they had us towed to the gate rather than using the plane's power. Then there were firemen meeting the plane, both outside and in the jetway. So.... I'm guessing that we won't just be hopping back on that same plane after a brief stop :)
Bottom line, I have no idea how long I'll be stuck here. My trip just got longer :/
Update: Well, things are defined, but not well. I'm catching a flight from here at 3:30, and then I get a 2 1/2 hour layover in Minneapolis, before I fly from there to Baltimore. That gets in at 10:30 PM. This day just keeps getting longer :)

I can't complain about the flight itself - it left on time, and arrived early. It's just that I had forgotten how painful overnight flights are :) Going through the day on the short sleep you manage on a 3 hour overnight flight just doesn't cut it :)

The conference is ending - Georg is sending us off with a few closing remarks. It was a fun conference, and I've recorded most of it on my H2 Zoom (I think the audio quality is fairly good). Additionally, STIC has been shooting video, although I have no idea how long it will take to get that online. I do know from experience that video editing is very time consuming :)
Good conference, and I hope to see people again next year!

Last talk of the day and of the conference - Dorin Sandu is talking about integrating Lucene with Smalltalk, so that he didn't have to create his own search tools for the large amounts of data that he deals with on a regular basis.
![jarober added a file](http://www.jarober.com/blog/images/sts11/dorin.jpg)
He wanted something small and fast, but also mature with a community to interact with - which is how he got to Lucene. Rather than reproduce the bullet points about Lucene, I'll send you to the website.
The demo is cool - he replaced the existing search facilities in BottomFeeder (which are pretty basic) with Lucene. The kinds of queries that Lucene supports are way, way better than the simple stuff I did :)

James Savidge works in Cincom support, and he's talking about ways to make your life easier when you need to debug problems that crop up. The first thing he did was a gentle - and funny - request for people to Read the Fine Manual :)
![James Savidge](http://www.jarober.com/images/sts11/savidge.jpg)
First tip: Remember the file browser, which can give you a quick view of either bytes or formatted source (depending on what you're looking at) of files. Next, he's going through the profiler (and the multi-allocation profiler), which a lot of people forget. I can attest to that - I don't know how many times I've been helping someone track a problem, and had them be surprised when I pulled out the profiler.
There's also the Memory Monitor (contributed), which can help quite a bit. It includes extensive logging facilities. Back when I was at Cincom, I covered this next bit pretty deeply in my screencasts - the various kinds of probes you can insert for information or debugging using the debugger.
Now a newer tool that I'm not familiar with - the benchmarking tool, which originated in ObjectStudio, but now also works in VW. Since it's a UI driven tool, it won't work headless.
Next, he's going over a tool that I've found to be very helpful - the logging for the various network protocols. When you don't know why your protocol requests are failing, this will let you see the traffic exchanges in detail.
As basic as it sounds, don't forget the Transcript (or the new #out message, which came from ObjectStudio). It's highly useful in server apps, because you'll typically toss the Transcript to a file. I've used that a lot.
Need to watch message sends - the Spy Tool (VW and OS) does that. It does not work in Web Velocity yet.
This next bit is something a lot of people are unaware of - command line options for the VM and image.
James is recommending my screencasts (the ones I did at Cincom). Those are still quite useful, but they aren't being updated now - so as time goes by and new releases of the Cincom products go out, they'll get more and more dated.

I missed the first 10 minutes or so of Martin McClure's talk - I suddenly developed a cough, and it looked like I was going to disturb his talk. So, I grabbed coffee while he started doing his demo. Here's Martin:
![jarober added a file](http://www.jarober.com/images/sts11/martin.jpg)
His first demo showed the way they used to do things (largely by hand), which worked, but was tedious. Now he's showing the newer, less ad-hoc code. It looks like they can parse a standard C header file, and extract out the available functions and create a wrapper class (an awful lot like DLLCC, but he's doing it from a workspace as opposed to a tool). One nice thing - you can filter to limit the plethora of things such a thing might try to wrap if you just let it go on its own.
What comes out of that is a wrapper class with a ton of Class Variables, each of which represents an interface to one of the generated functions. Absent the pragmas, the methods that get generated look a lot like what DLLCC generates in VW. One nice thing - the wrapper includes the segment of the header file that became the interface in question, so you can see how you ended up where you are. That makes it a bit easier to hack on things that it doesn't get quite right.
And of course, you can download their 64 bit work and try this stuff yourself.

You can learn a lot more about TeaTime from the Wikipedia page for Croquet, which says the following:
TeaTime is a scalable real-time multi-user architecture that is the basis for Croquet's object-object communication and synchronization. It is designed to support multi-user applications that can be scaled to massive numbers of concurrently interacting users in a shared virtual space.

One of the pleasant surprises here at StS 11 was running into Dorin Sandu and finding out about a little project he's been working on. He's been creating an interface between Smaltalk and Lucene, and he's been using BottomFeeder as a testbed for that.
As I did things, the search facilities in Bf are a pretty simple linear search through the item space. Dorin has replaced that with Lucene. To help with that, I really only needed to do a couple of things:
- Change the item GUIDs to the link if the link is there (nearly always the case now)
- Report a few new events when feeds add items or delete them
It should be fun to see what comes of that :)

![John O'Keefe](http://www.jarober.com/blog/images/sts11/johnok.jpg)
What's coming down the road after the summer release?
- Full Unicode
- Seaside 3.x
- SST Improvements
I missed a few things on the slides there :) - below are candidate items for future releases - meaning no time scales for this stuff:
- GTK 2.x on Linux
- Monticello Importer
- New Settings framework
- More and better GLORP support, including ActiveRecord
- TCP/IP V6
- Full SSL wrapper
- Incremental GC
- 64 bit support
- Some integration of various goodies for VA, like KES/Stats
- Windows Services control moved from external to Smalltalk
- Interfaces to .NET/C#
- Better install/repair/uninstall tools
- Better hashing and sorting in Collections (policy mechanism)
And you can download the eval free, or buy a license. There's now a developer program as well, where you can get in-process development builds. The schedule is "irregular" :)
You can also get a perpetual NC license by committing to an open source project (VAStGoodies.com is a good starting point)

First talk of the morning - Stephen Baker's "What Smalltalk can learn from Ruby". He's starting with a brief overview of how we got from the state of the industry in the early 90's to where we are now. I have my own notions on this topic, as many of you already know :)
Anyway, here he is getting started:
![Stephen Baker](http://www.jarober.com/images/sts11/baker.jpg)
So if Smalltalk is so great, why do we have so many problems getting traction? Here's what Ruby has:
- Low barriers to entry
- A blog in 15 minutes
- Community - so screencasts (etc) got immediate traction
I think the main take away from this talk is that we have great tools and web frameworks in Smalltalk, but we don't make it easy enough for people to get into the community.

Looks like the future involves capped data - AT&T just announced new limits:
AT&T claims their average DSL customer uses around 18GB a month, and these changes will only impact about 2% of all DSL customers -- who the company states consume "a disproportionate amount of bandwidth."
That sounds reasonable until you consider increased use of things like iTunes movie rentals, Netflix, Hulu (et. al.). If you grab a few HD movies, you can start running into those limits faster than you might think.
Of course, the providers would rather have you use their "free" on demand services....

In the early 1990's ParcPlace failed to license Smalltalk to Sun Microsystems.
