<description>A regularly published podcast by a self-described hacker, curmudgeon and hacktivist about the practice and profession of programming drawing on over a decade of professional experience and a lifetime spent hacking, the intersection of politics and society with technology and anything else clever, elegant or funny that catches my mind as a die hard technology geek.</description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>This is news cast 222, an episode of The Command Line Podcast.</p>
<p>In the intro, letting everyone know <a href="http://dragoncon.org/">Dragon*Con</a> is coming up. I'll be taking a little more time this year off from the show to prepare for my travel there. There will be no news cast on either September 29th or the 5th. There will be no feature cast on the 1st and possibly the 8th, depending on what recordings I come back with and how much work they need.</p>
<p>This week's security alerts are <a href="http://www.computerweekly.com/Articles/2010/08/10/242321/android-phones-hit-by-text-based-trojan.htm">first Android SMS trojan</a> and <a href="http://www.h-online.com/open/news/item/Vulnerability-in-OpenSSL-1-0-x-1053147.html">a vulnerability in OpenSSL 1.0</a>.</p>

The book I mention in the a-life segment is "<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0671872346?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=thecommandl0a-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=0671872346">Complexity</a>" by Mitch Waldrop.</p>
<p>Following up this week <a href="http://googlepublicpolicy.blogspot.com/2010/08/joint-policy-proposal-for-open-internet.html">just the announcement of what Google and Verizon were up to</a>. There was an <a href="http://googlepublicpolicy.blogspot.com/2010/08/google-and-verizon-op-ed-path-to-open.html">op-ed from the two CEOs</a> though I don't think it added anything. There was also a ton of analysis and commentary though I am going to recommend that from <a href="http://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2010/08/google-verizon-netneutrality">EFF's Cindy Cohn</a>. Not surprisingly, Google has already posted a <a href="http://googlepublicpolicy.blogspot.com/2010/08/facts-about-our-network-neutrality.html">defense</a>.</p>

<description><![CDATA[<p>This is news cast 220, an episode of The Command Line Podcast.</p>
<p>In the intro, an apology for missing the last two shows, though I had <a href="http://thecommandline.net/2010/07/28/power-restored/">good reason</a>. I will be <a href="http://thecommandline.net/2010/07/30/ill-be-in-san-francisco-aug-9th-through-11th-for-cassandra-summit-2010/">in San Francisco from August 9th to the 11th</a> for Cassandra Summit and a training day. If anyone is interested in a meet up Monday or Tuesday night, let me know. And if you don't read the web site, I am a <a href="http://thecommandline.net/2010/07/29/parsec-finalist/">finalist for a Parsec award</a>.</p>
<p>This week's security alerts are <a href="http://www.zdnet.com/blog/security/apple-patches-safari-auto-fill-security-hole/6991">Apple fixes the autofill bug in Safari</a> that I didn't get to discuss <a href="http://thecommandline.net/wiki/2010_07_25#alert1">last week</a> and <a href="http://it.slashdot.org/story/10/07/28/2210217/ATampT-Wont-Block-Black-Hat-Eavesdropping-Demo">AT&amp;T said it wouldn't interfere with a Black Hat demo</a> and <a href="http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2010/07/intercepting-cell-phone-calls/">was true to its word</a>.</p>
<p>In this week's news <a href="http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2010/07/intercepting-cell-phone-calls/">EFF wins three DMCA exemptions</a> with deeper analysis from both <a href="http://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2010/07/breaking-down-2009-dmca-rulemaking-part-1-victory">them</a> and <a href="http://www.publicknowledge.org/blog/library-congresss-drm-exceptions-not-just-abo">Public Knowledge</a>.

I get why most of the coverage is so <a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/fair_use_not_just_acceptable_its_essential_for_the.php">positive</a> but I cannot help but give voice to my inner cynic. Also, the <a href="http://voices.washingtonpost.com/posttech/2010/07/sen_kerry_to_introduce_interne.html?wprss=posttech">Senate prepares privacy legislation</a> as <a href="http://voices.washingtonpost.com/posttech/2010/07/senate_online_privacy_hearing.html?wprss=posttech">industry discusses self regulation</a>, a <a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/e-readers_help_literacy_in_ghana.php">couple</a> of <a href="http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2010/07/humane-wikipedia-reader/">stories</a> about e-books in developing nations, and <a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/slashdot_struggles_to_remain_relevant_in_the_socia.php">Slashdot is losing relevance on the social web</a>.</p>

<description><![CDATA[<p>This is a feature cast, an episode of The Command Line Podcast.</p>
<p>In the intro, a quick review of the tabletop game, "<a href="http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/37696/the-stars-are-right">The Stars are Right</a>".</p>
<p>Listener feedback this week is from Andrew and <a href="http://dcprivacylaw.com/blog/">Carey</a>, both of home responded to the last feature on <a href="http://thecommandline.net/2010/07/07/complex_privacy/">complex privacy</a> .</p>
<p>The hacker word of the week this week is <a href="http://catb.org/jargon/html/F/Finagles-Law.html">Finagle's Law</a>.</p>
<p>The feature this week is a monologue considering the true burden of forking. It was inspired by my recent reading of Clay Shirky's excellent, "<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1594201536?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=thecommandl0a-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=1594201536">Here Comes Everybody</a>".</p>

<description><![CDATA[<p>This is news cast 219, an episode of The Command Line Podcast.</p>
<p>In the intro, an admission of a mistake around correctly observing the licenses of some works I used after I stopped using the non-commercial clause in the license for the podcast. The net effect should be none to you, the listener, but it seemed like a good teaching moment and a reminder that as easy as Creative Commons makes it to understand their licenses, that doesn't prevent making honest mistakes. Thanks, Randal.</p>

<title>TCLP 2010-07-07 Will We Ever Have Effective Complex Privacy Controls? (Comment Line 240-949-2638)</title>
<link>http://thecommandline.net/2010/07/07/complex_privacy/</link>
<description><![CDATA[<p>This is a feature cast, an episode of The Command Line Podcast.</p>
<p>Listener feedback this week is from quite a few folks. Matt wrote in about outliners, asking what I do in particular to bend vim to this task. I use a vimrc line like "autocmd BufEnter,BufNew *.notes set sw=4 ts=4 expandtab spell tw=0 foldmethod=indent smartindent". Colin posted a <a href="http://thecommandline.net/2010/06/23/linux_switch/#comment-5828">comment</a> about AAC and chapter marks. John had a much more incisive comment on my switching to an open stack segment. Ian also wrote about outliners, suggesting <a href="http://orgmode.org/">org-mode</a> and in particular a <a href="http://orgmode.org/talks/index.html#sec-2">couple</a> of <a href="http://www.nf.mpg.de/orgmode/guest-talk-dominik.html">screencasts</a>. And Max shared his experiences switching to Linux not once, but twice.</p>
<p>The hacker word of the week this week is <a href="http://catb.org/jargon/html/F/filter.html">filter</a>.</p>
<p>The feature this week is a rant digging into the question of whether we'll ever develop effective controls that match our complex expectations of privacy and digging into the source of that complexity. I mention <a href="http://www.zephoria.org/thoughts/archives/2010/05/14/facebook-and-radical-transparency-a-rant.html">a couple</a> <a href="http://www.zephoria.org/thoughts/archives/2010/05/15/facebook-is-a-utility-utilities-get-regulated.html">of posts</a> by danah boyd, some <a href="http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/06/18/facebook_hoofnagle_podcast/">criticism</a> of the demands made of Facebook by privacy advocates, my reading of Clay Shirky's "<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0143114948?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=thecommandl0a-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=0143114948">Here Comes Everybody</a>", and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small-world_network">small world networks</a>.</p>

<description><![CDATA[<p>This is a feature cast, an episode of The Command Line Podcast.</p>
<p>Rather than try to shoe horn a full news cast in, amongst the weekend's festivities, I figured I would share a reading of a piece inspired by the Holiday here in the US but more appropriate to an audience on the net: <a href="https://w2.eff.org/Censorship/Internet_censorship_bills/barlow_0296.declaration">A Declaration of Independence for Cyberspace</a>, original penned by John Perry Barlow in 1996. The music I used underneath it is track 34 from Nine Inch Nails' <a href="http://ghosts.nin.com/main/home">Ghosts</a>, used under a CC BY-NC-SA license.</p>

<description><![CDATA[<p>This is a feature cast, an episode of The Command Line Podcast.</p>
<p>In the intro, thanks to my friend <a href="http://intotheblender.com/">Chooch</a> for saving my bacon with the event audio I am sharing as this week's feature. Also, with regards to the show's 5th anniversary, I realize I pretty much said my peace on the subject last week. Just trying to keep that spirit of being receptive to surprise alive going forward.</p>
<p>I will save this week's feedback, of which there is rather a lot, until next week.</p>
<p>There is no hacker word of the week this week.</p>
<p>The feature this week is a recording of the talk Cory Doctorow gave at this month's CopyNight, here in DC.</p>

My co-panelists were <a href="http://secondshiftpodcast.com/wiki/index.php?title=Brad_Smith">Brad Smith</a> and none other than Eric Raymond.

If you are going to be there, come and say, "Hi". May's CopyNight will be next Tuesday, the 25th, with special guest Carl Malamud. Next month's CopyNight will also have a special guest, Cory Doctorow as it happens. That CopyNight will be June 28th, a Monday. For more details about the DC CopyNight, visit the <a href="http://copynightdc.wordpress.com">web site</a>.</p>
<p>Due to the length of the interview, I didn't get to any listener feedback this week. There also is no new hacker word of the week for the same reason.</p>
<p>The feature this week is an interview with <a href="http://craphound.com/">Cory Doctorow</a> discussing the issues explored in his latest book just released from Tor, "<a href="http://craphound.com/ftw/">For the Win</a>". I caught up with him over Skype on his current <a href="http://craphound.com/?p=2849">book tour</a>. We mention quite a bit of material, roughly in chronological order:</p>

<link>http://thecommandline.net/2010/03/24/i_am_not_a_pirate/</link>
<description><![CDATA[<p>This is a feature cast, an episode of The Command Line Podcast.</p>
<p>In the intro, a correction on the rant (I recorded it previously) based on further explanation by Cory in the <a href="http://craphound.com/?p=2736">Lab Out Loud interview</a> about price discrimination and demand elasticity. Also, <a href="http://findingada.com">Happy Ada Lovelace Day</a>. As pledged, I've written a <a href="http://thecommandline.net/2010/03/24/ada-lovelace-day-2010/">blog post</a> for the day. I also share a <a href="http://thecommandline.net/2010/03/24/ordering-the-badges/">badge</a> <a href="http://thecommandline.net/2010/03/21/badge-proof/">update</a>. And thanks go to new monthly donor, Andrew.</p>

Also, David shares another <a href="http://www.viplugin.com/viplugin/">vim/eclipse plugin</a> and <a href="http://blog.bitratchet.com/2010/03/19/diffed-and-merged-and-ported/">Jed</a> and <a href="http://www.johndcook.com/blog/2010/03/22/ford-chevy-arguments-in-tech/">John</a> share their thoughts in response to the Inner Chapter of Tools.</p>

<p>The feature this week is a rant entitled, I Am Not a Pirate. (Although big content is starting to <a href="http://thecommandline.net/2010/03/18/ip-terrorism-rhetoric-takes-a-new-turn/">agree</a> though for very different reasons.) Mostly this is in response to Ars Technica's <a href="http://thecommandline.net/2010/03/08/is-ad-blocking-choking-sites-to-death/">ad blocking experiment</a>, in particular my friend Nuri's thoughts on that story. I mention Mike Masnick, of <a href="http://techdirt.com/">Techdirt</a>, who champions a model he calls connect with fans plus reason to buy. I also mention <a href="http://flattr.com/beta/">Flattr</a> and the <a href="http://www.thesecretlair.com/main/2010/03/07/episode-0031-free-content-vs-paying-the-creator/">recent roundtable on free content versus paying the author</a> on The Secret Lair podcast.

<p>The feature this week is an interview with my <a href="http://www.unquietdesperation.com/">good friend</a> and <a href="http://thesecretlair.com/">fellow podcaster</a>, Chris Miller.

This time he joins me to report on his experience at <a href="http://us.pycon.org/2010/about/">PyCon 2010</a>. In the course of the discussion, we mention his <a href="http://www.aginteractive.com/">employer</a>, <a href="http://linuxoutlaws.com/">The Linux Outlaws</a>, Watts Humphrey's <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_Software_Process">Personal Software Process</a>, David Beazley's <a href="http://www.dabeaz.com/python/GIL.pdf">presentation on the Python GIL</a>, <a href="http://www.canonical.com/">Mark</a> <a href="http://ubuntu.com">Shuttleworth</a>, and <a href="http://catherinedevlin.blogspot.com/">Catherine Devlin's</a> presentation on <a href="http://www.assembla.com/wiki/show/python-cmd2">cmd2</a>.</p>

<p>No listener feedback this week.</p>
<p>Due to the length of the interview, there is also no new hacker word of the week this week.</p>
<p>The feature this week is an interview with cartoonist and animator, <a href="http://ninapaley.com">Nina Paley</a>, creator of "<a href="http://sitasingstheblues.com">Sita Sings the Blues</a>". I've spoken and written about Nina's story before, <a href="http://questioncopyright.org/sita_distribution">the troubles</a> clearing her use of Annette Hanshaw's torch songs that led her to work with Karl Fogel at <a href="http://questioncopyright.org">QuestionCopyright.org</a>. In the course of the interview, we also mention the <a href="http://sitasingstheblues.com/store">store for "Sita" merchandise</a> , <a href="http://questioncopyright.org/creator_endorsed">the creator endorsed mark</a>, "<a href="http://questioncopyright.org/minute_memes">Minute Memes</a>", the <a href="http://toddmichaelsen.com/homesitasoundtrack.cfm">"Sita" soundtrack</a> by Todd Michaelsen, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j61mRq9Q4JE">"Sita" on a persistence of vision wheel based display</a>, and <a href="http://www.cheswick.com/ches/mrthumbnail.html">Bill Cheswick's poster made from every frame of "Sita"</a>. Sadly, by the time you hear this, you'll have missed her talk at AU but I discuss it a bit in the intro to this episode.</p>

<title>TCLP 2009-11-25 Interview: Cory Doctorow (Comment Line 240-949-2638)</title>
<link>http://thecommandline.net/2009/11/25/cory_doctorow_makers/</link>
<description><![CDATA[<p>This is a feature cast.</p>
<p>I am delaying listener feedback until the next feature cast due to the holiday week and the length of the feature.</p>
<p>There is no new hacker word of the week this week.</p>
<p>The feature this week is my third interview with Cory Doctorow in as many years. This time, we speak mostly about his new novel, <a href="http://craphound.com/makers/">"MAKERS"</a>. My friend Dan, from <a href="http://geekadelphia.com">Geekadelphia</a>, took some great pictures while we were interviewing. You can see the best of those pictures <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/31219652@N07/sets/72157622727029469/">here</a> and all of my pictures from the entire convention, <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cmdln/sets/72157622864575792/">here</a>.</p>

<title>TCLP 2009-11-18 Rant: Nowhere to Go (Comment Line 240-949-2638)</title>
<link>http://thecommandline.net/2009/11/18/nowhere_to_go/</link>
<description><![CDATA[<p>This is a feature cast.</p>
<p>In the intro, a final reminder I will be at <a href="http://philcon.org">Philcon</a> this weekend, so no news show on Sunday. There almost definitely will be a feature show next week since I should have my interview with Cory to release. Also a revelation, that <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1018887/">"Dreams with Sharp Teeth"</a> has convinced me I am not much of a curmudgeon.</p>
<p>There is no listener feedback this week.</p>
<p>The hacker word of the week this week is <a href="http://catb.org/jargon/html/E/Evil-Empire.html">Evil Empire</a>.</p>
<p>The feature this week is a rant, though more of an emotional than a surly one, entitled nowhere to go.</p>

<p>In the intro, letting you know that <a href="http://lifeafterlawschool.libsyn.com/index.php?post_id=540095">part one</a> of a two part interview with me is up at the <a href="http://lifeafterlawschool.libsyn.com/">Life after Law School</a> podcast.</p>
<p>There is no listener feedback this week.</p>
<p>Due to the length of the feature, there is no hacker word of the week this week.</p>
<p>The feature this week is an interview with <a href="http://www.stonehenge.com/merlyn/">Randal Schwartz</a>. I first met Randal through his talk on his experience being snared under one of the problematic computer fraud and abuse laws. We don't discuss that topic in the interview but if you are curious, he recommends <a href="http://www.securitycatalyst.com/security-catalyst-26-insider-interviews-randal-schwartz/">his appearance on the Security Catalyst podcast</a> and <a href="http://www.thefutureandyou.libsyn.com/index.php?post_id=329133">his interview with Stephen Euin Cobb on the Future and You</a>. Randal also mentions the <a href="http://squeakbyexample.org/">Squeak by Example</a> book in the interview which is available as a free electronic edition and a print-on-demand edition. You can also hear Randal on the excellent <a href="http://twit.tv/FLOSS">FLOSS Weekly</a> podcast which I also recommend for its consistently superb coverage of free software and open source projects of all varieties.</p>

<p>In the intro, a request that you consider contributing to <a href="http://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/18166">the Creative Commons 5th annual fundraising campaign</a>.</p>
<p>Listener feedback this week is from Eric who writes with <a href="http://server.ericsbinaryworld.com/blog/2009/07/19/missing-the-point-of-public-domain/">a question about a disclaimer on public domain photos</a>.</p>
<p>The hacker word of the week this week is <a href="http://catb.org/jargon/html/E/epoch.html">epoch</a>.</p>
<p>The feature this week is an Inner Chapter on personal advocacy. This was inspired partly by <a href="http://thecommandline.net/2009/04/16/in-a-job-search-nothing-trumps-personal-advocacy/">a Coding Horror post and my reaction to it</a>. I relate it to both <a href="http://thecommandline.net/2009/01/14/effecting_change/">effecting change</a> and <a href="http://thecommandline.net/2009/08/12/thought_leadership/">thought leadership</a> which I've discussed previously.</p>

<title>TCLP 2009-09-30 Copyright Panel at D*C 2009 (Comment Line 240-949-2638)</title>
<link>http://thecommandline.net/2009/09/30/dc_copyright_09/</link>
<description><![CDATA[<p>This is a feature cast.</p>
<p>In the intro, a correction from Randal on the correct pronunciation of "Kernighan". Also, Gail Martin interviewed me for her podcast, <a href="http://www.ghostinthemachinepodcast.com/">Ghost in the Machine</a>. We chatted about peer media, open content and media advocacy. You can <a href="http://ghostinthemachinepodcast.com/?p=98">download the interview</a> or <a href="http://gzmartin.audioacrobat.com/rss/gailzmartinpodcast.xml">subscribe to her feed</a>, she interviews many other fascinating, aspiring authors on her show.</p>
<p>I'm going to push off on listener feedback until next week. Also, no hacker word of the week for the same reason, the length of the feature.</p>
<p>The feature this week is the recording of the "Creative Commons and Legal Issues" panel from the podcasting track at <a href="http://dragoncon.org/">Dragon*Con 2009</a>, otherwise known simply as the copyright panel. I was joined by Thomas Vincent, Randy Chertkow of <a href="http://beatnikturtle.com/">Beatnik Turtle</a>, and Courtney Lytle Perry. This is the third time Randy and Courtney have joined me for this panel and it was a sheer pleasure. The audio is a little over driven, we were having speaker issues this year, but I think I managed to get things a bit under control.</p>

<description><![CDATA[<p>This is a feature cast.</p>
<p>In the intro, a request that you consider making a sustaining donation to your favorite free software project or open content producer, whether or not that happens to be me. The thought was inspired by my finally adding a recurring donation button to my web site.</p>
<p>Also, a clarification in case there was any confusion. My talk for the local <a href="http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/">Software Freedom Day</a> is at 11:30, the event starts at 10:30 in the computer lab at the Miller Branch of the Howard County Library. The schedule of talks is now <a href="http://sfd.ubuntu-maryland.org/">available online</a>.</p>
<p>Listener feedback this week (catching up) comes from <a href="http://balticonpodcast.org/wordpress/">Paul Fischer</a> who writes in response to the August 23rd show, specifically to the stories about Menuet and cracking the SecurID token.</p>
<p>The hacker word of the week this week is <a href="http://catb.org/jargon/html/E/ENQ.html">ENQ</a>.</p>
<p>The feature this week is a Hacking 101 on the subject of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_hammer">Golden Hammer Syndrome</a>, something all beginning hackers need to beware of.</p>

A special thanks to my room mates for the weekend, the hosts of <a href="http://chuckchat.com/technorama/">Technorama</a>, Chuck Tomasi and Kreg Steppe. There wasn't time to thank them in the intro but I also wanted to thank my friends Chooch and Viv (of the <a href="http://cohpodcast.com/">COH Podcast</a> and <a href="http://intotheblender.com/">Into the Blender</a>) who dragged me away from the podcast track to make sure I ate, saw the rest of the con and socialized (mostly with them and their own room mates, <a href="http://www.pgholyfield.com/">P.G. Holyfield</a> and <a href="http://www.theseanachai.com/">Patrick McLean</a>.)</p>

<link>http://thecommandline.net/2009/09/09/beatnik_turtle3/</link>
<description><![CDATA[<p>This is a feature cast.</p>
<p>No hacker word of the week because of the length of the feature. Also, though I have some listener feedback, I am saving it until next Wednesday for the same reason.</p>
<p>The feature this week is an interview with <a href="http://beatnikturtle.com/">Beatnik Turtle</a>, actually just Randy Chertkow, one of the band's members. Although there is no just about Randy if you've listened to the past two (Two! It's a tradition now!) interviews with members of the band.</p>

<description><![CDATA[<p>This is a feature cast.</p>
<p>In the intro a heads up that there will be no news cast this weekend. And a bit of a mini rant and news discussion of the announcement of the awarding of a patent for podcasting. Dave Winer's blog, not surprisingly, has <a href="http://scripting.com/stories/2009/07/29/didVolomediaInventPodcasti.html">the details</a> as well as a pretty strong claim that he has prior art.</p>
<p>Listener Feedback this week comes from Randal Schwartz who adds some good explanation to my coverage of the OSFA announcement for the last news cast. Randal also points out an organization with which he works, <a href="http://linuxfund.org/">LinuxFund</a>, is a member of OSFA and worth your consideration for causes to help.</p>
<p>The hacker word of the week this week is <a href="http://catb.org/jargon/html/E/EMACS.html">EMACS</a>.</p>
<p>The feature this week is an Inner Chapter on tradition.</p>

<link>http://thecommandline.net/2009/06/07/news_179/</link>
<description><![CDATA[<p>This is news cast 179.</p>
<p>In the intro, a quick review of J.C. Hutchins and Jordan Weisman's new book launching this Tuesday and more details on how you can contribute to my upcoming anniversary show and possibly even win a prize for doing so. Visit <a href="http://jchutchins.net/">J.C.'s site</a> for more details about his work and for the prequel novella he is podcasting for a taste of what to expect in the novel. The reason I am reviewing this book, other than the fact that I am friends with one of the authors, is that Jordan Weisman is a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jordan_Weisman">giant in the gaming industry</a>, largely responsible for fleshing out the genre of Alternate Reality Games but going all the way back to table top and RPG games and having worked with video games and some very recognizable franchies. PE:DA includes an ARG that ties in with the very compelling psychological thriller that is the novel itself.</p>

<title>TCLP 2009-05-27 Balticon 43: Peer Media vs. Broadcast Media (Comment Line 240-949-2638)</title>
<link>http://thecommandline.net/2009/05/27/b43_peer_media/</link>
<description><![CDATA[<p>This is a feature cast.</p>
<p>In the intro a heart felt thank you to my good friend, <a href="http://unquietdesperation.com">Chris Miller</a>, for his support and advice without which my recent experience at Balticon would not have been anywhere near as phenomenal.</p>
<p>There is no listener feedback this week. There is also no hacker word of the week due to the length of the feature.</p>
<p>The feature this week is the recording of the Peer Media vs. Broadcast Media panel at Balticon 43. I was joined by <a href="http://strangerthings.tv">Earl Newton</a>, <a href="http://www.evilgeniuschronicles.org/wordpress/">Dave Slusher</a> and <a href="http://www.theseanachai.com/">Patrick McLean</a> all of whom I owe a debt of gratitude for this great discussion. For clarification, the book Patrick mentions is "<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Against-Intellectual-Monopoly-Michele-Boldrin/dp/0521879280/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;s=books&amp;qid=1243470019&amp;sr=8-1">Against Intellectual Monopoly</a>" by Michele Boldrin and David Levine. Patrick also sent me a link to <a href="http://blog.mises.org/archives/010001.asp">an interview with Boldrin</a> which led me to the web site, <a href="http://www.againstmonopoly.org/index.php">Against Monopoly</a>, which furthers the discussion with contributions from several other scholars.</p>

<description><![CDATA[<p>This is news cast 176.</p>
<p>In the intro, an update on <a href="http://thecommandline.net/2009/05/09/schedule-for-balticon-43/">my schedule</a> at <a href="http://balticon.org/">Balticon 43</a> which is May 22nd to the 25th. In addition to my official schedule, I will be reprising my role as Doc Tech for the Live Mr. Adventure, Saturday night at 10PM.</p>
<p>Cory posted <a href="http://www.locusmag.com/Perspectives/2009/05/cory-doctorow-extreme-geek.html">an article of Locus</a> mentioning flashbake, to welcome to any new readers or listeners checking the show out from that. Additionally, thanks to Adam Mercer (ram), flashbake is now available through <a href="http://www.macports.org/">MacPorts</a>. I'll post a bit later on with more details and update the project's wiki to reflect the even easier installation for Mac users.</p>
<p>A reminder that I'll be on <a href="http://www.tllts.org/">The Linux Link Tech Show</a> live this Wednesday, the 13th, at 8:30PM Eastern. I've also been invited on Dave LaMorte's <a href="http://teachingforthefuture.com/">Teaching for the Future</a> podcast where he's recently been discussing open source and free software in the class room.

<description><![CDATA[<p>This is news cast 175.</p>
<p>In the intro, more updates on my upcoming guest appearances. The latest episode of the <a href="http://spamcast.libsyn.com">SPaMCast</a> went out on the 20th and I am next in the pipe, so my appearance there should be out on May 4th. I recorded a review of the film, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118736/">"Six String Samurai"</a>, for <a href="http://fanboyhell.libsyn.com/">Fanboy Hell</a>, just yesterday and that should also be out the week of the 4th. Dan and M.A. release every two weeks and just but out a new episode, today. Dan takes a very similar approach to his show's production to mine and M.A. and he delve into wonderful depths in their discussions. I cannot recommend their show highly enough. Last but certainly not least, I was invited onto the live streaming of <a href="http://tllts.org/">The Linux Link Tech Show</a>. I will be on the stream the evening of the 13th and the podcast version should be available soon after.</p>

<title>TCLP 2009-04-22 Interview: Jonathan Zittrain (Comment Line 240-949-2638)</title>
<link>http://thecommandline.net/2009/04/22/jonathan_zittrain/</link>
<description><![CDATA[<p>This is a feature cast.</p>
<p>In the intro I point out that I have been using <a href="http://www.herdict.org/web/">Herdict Web</a> for a while now. I encourage you to check it out, as well. This is one of the projects Prof. Zittrain has started to tackle the challenges discussed in his book.</p>
<p>Listener Feedback this week is from Nido who sent a link to the <a href="http://har2009.org/">Hacking at Random 2009</a> event coming up in The Netherlands in August. There's plenty of time to plan if this is within reasonable travel distance and looks like a great hacker gathering. They also have an audio promo, which I share, that has all the details.</p>
<p>The hacker word of the week this week is <a href="http://catb.org/jargon/html/D/DWIM.html">DWIM</a>.</p>
<p>The feature this week is an interview with Harvard Law professor, <a href="http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/people/jzittrain">Jonathan Zittrain</a>, where we discuss his latest book, "<a href="http://futureoftheinternet.org/">The Future of the Internet and How to Stop It</a>", as well as his work more generally. I mentioned <a href="http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/clay_shirky_on_institutions_versus_collaboration.html">a TED talk given by Clay Shirky</a> during the interview but in searching for the link I was clearly thinking of <a href="http://blip.tv/file/855937/">Shirky's Web 2.0 Expo talk</a>. Both talks are worth checking out.</p>

<description><![CDATA[<p>This is news cast 174.</p>
<p>In the intro, a heads up on some future guest appearances. Thomas Cagley Jr. of the very enjoyable <a href="http://spamcast.libsyn.com">Software Process and Measurement Podcast (SPaMCast)</a> interviewed me this past week and that should go out two weeks for Monday, the 20th. If you like <a href="http://www.se-radio.net/">Software Engineering Radio</a>, I think you'll like the SPaMCast. I will also be the guest blogger this coming Saturdy at <a href="http://ohgetagrip.blogspot.com/">Oh Get a Grip! the group blog</a> written by six writers working in the genre of erotica. My piece will be safe for work but I will warn you that you might not find the site in general safe for work if you are concerned about such things. My article was inspired by a panel I was on with Helen Madden, one of the bloggers at OGG, discussing some of the more profound threads of love, sex and artificial intelligence. Look for my post to go up on April 25th.</p>
<p>This week's security alert is just <a href="http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=3157">a discussion of arguably the first all Mac botnet</a> <a href="http://voices.washingtonpost.com/securityfix/2009/04/worlds_first_mac_botnet_hardly.html?wprss=securityfix">on which Brian Krebs sheds a bit more light</a>.</p>

<p>Listener Feedback this week is from Naht Ass who writes with some clarifications on the Shepard Fairey, Manny Garcia, AP case over the Obama Hope image.

<description><![CDATA[<p>This is news cast 173.</p>
<p>I will be traveling from the 4th of April to the 13th and will not have my audio gear with me. This is a family trip, not a conference or convention. I should be able to keep on writing for the show but no promises on the blog.

<title>And Now for the Lab, Carpet</title>
<link>http://thecommandline.net/2009/03/15/and-now-for-the-lab-carpet/</link>
<description><![CDATA[<p>As promised, here's another weekly update. Week two of my semi-hiatus should see new carpet and the furniture moved. I should be back to regular production next Sunday. I especially appreciate the new listeners who are checking the show out as a result of hearing my promo on Linux Outlaws. Hopefully you are checking out some of the archived shows in the meantime.</p>
<p>The other news of the week is that I received the new computer I ordered, a Mac Pro. I believe I may have gotten the last Harpertown eight core system Apple assembled. Unfortunately, the price point for Apple's least expensive eight core is now higher. That system ships with more memory and storage than the one I ordered. Compared to my G5, though, this new system is a rocket and I am happier with my budgeting choice. 8GB of after market RAM also helps smooth out the difference between the 5400 and 5500 based system.</p>
<p>I spent yesterday afternoon configuring a dual boot for Linux. It went smoothly and I am happy to have a native Linux system, again, for working from home and testing my personal projects. Since the new system is a desktop, Linux recognized all of the hardware with no trouble at all. I may experiment with Audacity, just to see how it compares, now that I can do so easily.
<br />
<br />This week I received a bit of feedback. I have one questions for Vaskin and I to dig into in the planned show on license choices for hackers. Paul Fischer also sent a bit of audio feedback asking after location capabilities for flashbake. He suggests that I ought to be able to code something up similar to the iPod Touch which doesn't have a GPS chip but can still approximate location. It turns out he is right and there are plenty of tools for doing location based on public IP address. I expect to have something hacked together in the next week or two.</p>
<p>I have been hesitant about location services as part of my own lifestream, just because of the privacy risk. But for a private, local-only git repository, I think it would make sense for users who travel a lot, as a more fine grained bit of context than the city used for the time zone module. I have to say that on the whole, flashbake has me thinking a bit more about the various social services and pieces of other information I publish as more of a cohesive whole, as the term life stream suggests.</p>
<p>The next update on the lab will be on the log Wednesday night. I may post another update Thursday for with photos of the furniture on place. If I still have a good number of books and other material to move in, I may wait for a final update when everything is in place.</p>
<p>Once again, thanks for your patience.</p>

<title>Lab Move Status and Show Hiatus</title>
<link>http://thecommandline.net/2009/03/08/lab-move-status-and-show-hiatus/</link>
<description><![CDATA[<p>As I mentioned in the last two shows, I am in the process of moving my lab to a different room in my home. I call it my lab because it is both a home office and a studio. That and I have the domain name, <a href="http://bitbucketlabs.net/">bitbucketlabs.net</a>.</p>
<p>Today we cleared one of the major hurdles in this process. I completely emptied the old room. We moved my younger son's bedroom into the old room and cleared the room into which my lab will be moved in the process. The room into which I am moving my lab was our original nursery for the boys and has been hard used as such, then a shared bedroom, and then just a bedroom for the younger of the two. It needs paint, carpeting, and several small repairs.</p>
<p>Now that it is empty, we can schedule the painting. We have a contractor that we've used for some other serious home improvement work who coincidentally called the other day offering a discount on painting for the rest of this month. Hopefully once we have the estimate and date, then everything else should go quickly. We've used a national carpet retailer who does installation before with good results so are confident we can have that done within days of the paint being dry.</p>
<p>I have my great grandfather's large, nara wood desk which is the last obstacle. I love this desk since it is simply huge so affords plenty of space for my mixer, mics, monitor, mouse, keyboard, etc. It has several slide out panels, too, for temporary, additional workspace. It is, however, quite huge. I cannot move it myself up two flights of tight stairs and I am thinking it is probably worth the price to pay for a few hours of some professional movers time to move it. I also have my father-in-law's tall, teak book shelves which will line one wall of the new lab. If we are getting pro movers, they can take care of those, too.</p>
<p>Painting, carpeting, and moving will probably take a couple of weeks. I am optimistic I can have it all done by the end of the month, before I am scheduled to interview Jonathan Zittrain.</p>
<p>In the meantime, I'll experiment with trying to get one or the other computer setup in a temporary space for recording in the meantime. I am less optimistic about that working so well. I get the house to myself on Sundays, which may be workable, but the only space I can use is adjacent to our living room, which simply may not work for weeknight recording.</p>
<p>I will post some audio tonight with this same explanation and to announce that the show will be on semi-hiatus for the next couple of weeks. I will post regular updates, both on the blog and will try to get corresponding audio out for those who do not subscribe to the blog. If I can, I'll try to get a few episodes out during this transition but realistically, it just may not happen until my new computer is hooked up to the new FIOS router in the new lab. Regardless of my audio production, I have a couple of ideas for the next features so may just be able to get a bit ahead of writing for the show if I don't get any episodes out.</p>]]></description>

<link>http://thecommandline.net/2009/02/18/farpoint_2009/</link>
<description><![CDATA[<p>This is a feature cast.</p>
<p>There is no hacker word of the week this week due to the length of the feature.</p>
<p>The feature this week is a recording of the copyright panel I moderated at <a href="http://farpointcon.com">Farpoint</a> this past weekend. Please bear with the audio quality as I used the unpowered mic that came with my record. I was joined in the discussion by <a href="http://www.helenehmadden.com/">Helen Madden</a> (who mentions <a href="http://www.epic-conference.com/">Epicon</a> and <a href="http://www.erotica-readers.com/">ERWA</a>), Paul Fischer and Martha Holloway of <a href="http://balticonpodcast.org">the Balticon Podcast</a> and <a href="http://addcast.net">the ADDCast</a>, <a href="http://jaredaxelrod.com/">Jared Axelrod</a> of too many creative projects to name but notably the creator of my podcast's cover art, <a href="http://blackwell.livejournal.com/">J.R. Blackwell</a>, an amazing photographer and writer as well, and <a href="http://paulettejaxton.com/">aspiring writer Paulette Jaxton</a> who also recently started the Form Letter Rejection Theater podcast.</p>
<p>The book I mention is <a href="http://thepiratesdilemma.com/">"The Pirate's Dilemma"</a> and it was in the context of <a href="http://www.ghostinthemachine.net/">Gail Z. Martins forthcoming interview with me</a>. I also mentioned <a href="http://openmediareview.com/2009/01/16/advice-from-a-published-author-on-negotiating-a-cc-license/">the 75/22/3</a> rule, explored by PhD economics candidate David Blackburn.

<description><![CDATA[<p>This is news cast 167.</p>
<p>Apologies for a cut and paste mistake in the original feed entry, you should get the correct episode with this entry.</p>
<p>In the intro, a quick discussion of <a href="http://www.lessig.org/blog/2009/01/let_the_remixes_begin.html">Professor Lessig's appearance on the Colbert Report</a>. I have included the first audio remix of that interview as the outro bed music, the rights to that belong to Sam King though I am assuming replaying such a mash up is OK despite the lack of info at his MySpace page. Also <a href="http://techdirt.com/articles/20090109/1349383347.shtml">a bit of confusion over the availability of Remix from the Colbert Nation site</a>. I am sure it is just a consequence of the delay of the CC-licensed e-book.</p>

<title>TCLP 2008-12-31 Year in Review, Part 2 (Comment Line 240-949-2638)</title>
<link>http://thecommandline.net/2008/12/31/year_2008_2/</link>
<description><![CDATA[<p>This is a feature cast.</p>
<p>In the intro, I share <a href="http://thecommandline.net/2008/12/29/wizzywig-volume-1-phreak-by-ed-piskor/">my review</a> of Ed Piskor's "Wizzywig Volume 1: Phreak".</p>
<p>The feature this week is part two of a round table discussion of some of the issues that were prominent this year. I was joined by <a href="http://lifeafterlawschool.libsyn.com/">Kevin Crosby</a>, Vaskin Kissoyan, and Eric Christensen. The topic of this part is where we are at with copyright infringement and enforcement. Most recently the RIAA has announced <a href="http://feeds.publicknowledge.org/~r/publicknowledge-fulltext/~3/490079253/1918">it is stopping its individual law suits</a>. However, they are pressing an unusual <a href="http://blog.wired.com/27bstroke6/2008/12/guns-n-roses-up.html">criminal case</a> against an individual. The risk of the urge to perfect enforcement is <a href="http://thecommandline.net/2007/12/02/relevance-of-copyright-reform-to-the-layman/">the increasing irrelevance</a> of copyright to <a href="http://www.locusmag.com/Features/2008/11/cory-doctorow-why-i-copyfight.html">the average person</a>.</p>
