Edge: A SHORT COURSE IN THINKING ABOUT THINKING — "A Master Class" By Danny Kahneman

Kahneman's article (with Jonathan Renshon) "Why Hawks Win" was published in Foreign Policy (January/February 2007); Kahneman points out that the answer may lie deep in the human mind. People have dozens of decision-making biases, and almost all favor conflict rather than concession. The article takes a look at why the tough guys win more than they should. Publication came during the run up to Davis, and the article became a focus of numerous discussions and related articles.

The event was an unqualified success. As one of the attendees later wrote: "Even with the perspective a few weeks, I can still think it is one of the all time best conferences that I have ever attended."

Over a period of two days, Kahneman presided over six sessions lasting about eight hours. The entire event was videotaped as an archive. Edge is pleased to present a sampling from the event consisting of streaming video of the first 10-15 minutes of each session along with the related verbatim transcripts.

Ashampoo® FireWall FREE (1.20, 10.04.2007) - Protección Total para Cualquiera

Pequeño y compacto. Uso de recursos mínimos

Probablemente sabe que necesita un programa cortafuegos para usar Internet con seguridad. Además de protegerle contra los ataques provenientes de Internet, un buen cortafuego también le dirá qué programas instalados en su ordenador están intentando hacer llamadas telefónicas y le permitirá evitarlo. Esto es algo que el mismísimo cortafuegos de Windows® no hace, y que es esencial para identificar y detener las actividades de muchos virus dañinos y programas espías. Por ejemplo, le permite prevenir que su ordenador se pueda convertir en un “zombi” controlado por spammers o hackers.

Pequeño y eficiente en vez de grande y confuso
Si no posee suficientes conocimientos de informática, el uso de un programa cortafuegos puede ser muy frustrante. Además de todo un argot confuso, los actuales cortafuegos son programas muy grandes. Algunas veces se tiene la impresión de estar instalando toda una suite completa en vez de una simple herramienta de red.
El nuevo Ashampoo FireWall FREE es diferente. Su Asistente de Configuración le guía paso a paso a través del proceso de instalación. En Modo Sencillo se usa en un abrir y cerrar de ojos – no se necesita ningún conocimiento técnico especial y todo está explicado con claridad.
Ashampoo FireWall FREE también es extraordinariamente compacto. Incluso con sus cuatro herramientas adicionales es un programa ligero que usa muy poca memoria y recursos del ordenador. Usted obtiene una protección total sin una carga excesiva en su sistema.

Rendimiento penoso en Windows

No soy el único al que le pasan estas cosas :-)

nowwhatthe: Performance - Win & KDE

But the CPU monitoring stuff on windows is entirely useless. Really,
wtf is that thing measuring? It seems like some random value... For
example. The following screenshot was made a little over 10 minutes
after boot. I started firefox, an explorer window (never showed up) and
Outlook. So everything stopped to redraw, most things got slow (but not
moving mouse, or even a window). So - there must be something going on,
right? Well, no. According to the system monitor, those apps which
didn't start nor redraw didn't stop working due to a lack of CPU or
memory:

1 + 1 = 2... explicado de la forma complicada

Artículo que explica los fundamentos de la formalización matemática: por qué es necesaria, y por qué es mucho más difícil que las explicaciones intuitivas.

The Narrow Road » Blog Archive » On Abstraction

The point of this rigmarole is to show that ‘1 + 1 = 2′
can be enunciated without mention of either ‘1′ or
‘2′. The point may become clearer if we take an
illustration. Suppose Mr A has one son and one daughter. It is required
to prove that he has two children. We intend to state the premise and
the conclusion in a way not involving the words ‘one’ or
‘two’.

We translate the above general statement by putting:

φx. = .x is a son of Mr A,

ψx. = .x is a daughter of Mr A.

Then there is an object having the property φ, namely Mr A junior; whatever x
may be, if it has some property that Mr A junior does not have, it is
not Mr A junior, and therefore not a son of Mr A senior. This is what
we mean by saying that ‘being a son of Mr A’ is a unit
property. Similarly ‘being a daughter of Mr A’ is a unit
property. Now consider the property ‘being a son or daughter of
Mr A’, which we will call χ. There are objects, the son and
daughter, of which (1) the son has the property of being male, which
the daughter has not; (2) the son has the property χ and the
daughter has the property χ; (3) if x is an object which lacks some property possessed by the son and also some property possessed by the daughter, then x
is not a son or a daughter of Mr A. It follows that χ is a dual
property. In short … a man who has one son and one daughter has
two children.

The Narrow Road » If We Taught English the Way We Teach Math

Imagine that your only contact with “English” as a subject was through classes in school. Suppose that those classes, from elementary school right through to high school, amounted to nothing more than reading dictionaries, getting drilled in spelling and formal grammatical construction, and memorizing vast vocabulary lists — you never read a novel, nor a poem; never had contact with anything beyond the pedantic complexity of English spelling and formal grammar, and precise definitions for an endless array of words. You would probably hate the subject.You might come to wonder what the point of learning English was.

Puntos necesarios en un acuerdo de confidencialidad

• Contenido básico de un Acuerdo o Pacto de Confidencialidad.
  
  
  • Establecer
    claramente qué se entiende por Información Confidencial.
    En este sentido, se puede establecer el deber de guardar secreto
    respecto de toda o determinada información tratada, siendo
    recomendable huir de referencias genéricas a la confidencialidad.
    
  • Establecer
    claramente los medios, recursos o información que se pone a
    disposición del trabajador o tercera empresa, determinando la
    titularidad de la misma.
    
  • Establecer
    específicamente la obligación de secreto y
    confidencialidad, el deber de actuar diligentemente en cuanto al
    tratamiento, conservación, almacenamiento, transporte, etc...
    estableciendo que en todos los casos deberán adoptarse los
    medios que aseguren y garanticen dicho secreto, y se evite su
    pérdida o el acceso a la misma de terceros no autorizados.
    
  • Establecer
    la obligación de devolver la información confidencial a
    la que se ha tenido acceso en el momento que termine la relación
    contractual, estableciendo, igualmente, que a pesar de dicha
    terminación, la obligación de confidencialidad y secreto
    permanecerá vigente durante el plazo que sea establecido por las
    partes (la práctica habitual en este sentido, es establecer un
    plazo de 2 años después de finalizada la relación
    contractual).
    
  • Es conveniente, igualmente, informar de las
    consecuencias que pueden derivarse del incumplimiento de dicha
    obligación de confidencialidad y secreto. Así puede
    establecerse que la sustracción o revelación de dicha
    información puede ser constitutivo de un ilícito de
    naturaleza penal (art. 197 CP del descubrimiento y revelación de
    secretos), puede ser objeto de acciones disciplinarias (despido
    disciplinario en caso de que el incumplimiento venga por parte de un
    trabajador), reclamación de indemnizaciones por daños y
    perjuicios, etc...
    
  • Por último, en los Acuerdos o
    Pactos de Confidencialidad pueden establecerse todas las
    especialidades, que por razón de la relación contractual
    que se establece, sean establecidas por las partes.
    
• Limites de la Obligación de Confidencialidad y Secreto.
  
  
  Hay que señalar que la Obligación de Confidencialidad y
  Secreto queda limitada en aquellos casos en los que, por imperativo
  legal, la parte obligada sea requerida por un organismo jurisdiccional
  o administrativo para facilitar determinada información.

  En estos casos, deberán ser atendidas aquellas órdenes en las que:

  • La obligación de entrega venga determinada de manera concreta en la orden.
  • Sea dictada por una administración o juzgado competente.
  • Sea firme.
    
  
  En estos casos, se informará a la otra parte de inmediato sobre
  el requerimiento recibido, siempre que no exista obligación de
  guardar secreto sobre el mismo por mandato legal, administrativo o
  judicial.

Protección jurídica del conocimiento tácito. Estudio empírico en el sector alimentario

La sociedad actual, denominada sociedad del conocimiento, otorga especial relevancia al

conocimiento humano, como fuente de riqueza de las empresas. Este conocimiento debe ser

protegido jurídicamente desde una doble vertiente:

1. Frente a posibles espionajes, teniendo en cuenta la facilidad en el intercambio de

información que caracteriza la época en la que nos encontramos.

2. Frente a revelaciones de secretos industriales y del resto de información que tenga

una empresa, que puedan ocasionarse por parte de los empleados de la misma que

decidan trasladarse a otra, dado el alto índice de temporalidad de empleo de esta

sociedad.

Si bien a nivel económico-organizativo, se aprecia esta importancia del conocimiento “esté

expresado en un medio material o no”, como variable determinante del éxito de las empresas,

a nivel jurídico nos encontramos en un estadio menos evolucionado.

2. Tipos de conocimiento

2.1. En primer lugar, podríamos establecer una clasificación en función de los resultados

que puede generar el conocimiento, analizando si los conocimientos que generan los

trabajadores de la empresa suponen un paso inventivo, es decir, descubrimientos novedosos

para la empresa o, por el contrario, cuando el trabajador viene desempeñando una actividad en

la empresa y adquiere conocimientos y los une a sus aptitudes y experiencia, no se convierten

en innovaciones sino únicamente en una mejora de su saber hacer, de su forma de actuar en la

empresa. Así, podemos plantear dos tipos de conocimientos:

Cosmología de Kyoto

Un juego de ambientación oriental, que se parece más a una película de Kurosawa que a un juego de aventuras.

Home of the Underdogs - Entry: Cosmology of Kyoto

What makes Cosmology of Kyoto truly remarkable is that as you enter the town and interact with its inhabitants, you have only two choices. You can, in your arrogance, remain as you are, a contemporary Japanese or American, for example. And you won't get very far. The structure of relations that are the real art of the work won't let you. It does not allow this nonchalance with meaning.

A more interesting choice is to try and understand the world as it would have appeared to a person of the time. Then you start to make your decisions, when you meet the guard, or the priest, or the gambler, according to someone else's meaning making map of Kyoto, and indeed of the world. You work within the constraints the artists have placed in the matrix of relations that are the art of this work. The look and feel of it are just window dressing. They are not art, they are design. The art is the in the relations. Follow along the line of those relations, and you learn what it means to be in the world as the world appears from the point of view of Pure Land Buddhism.

As Roger Ebert concludes in his review, "There is the sense, illusory but seductive, that one could wander this world indefinitely. This is a wonderful game."

aseigo: Getting into KDE Hacking

A couple of blog entries back a reader left this comment:

About
kde hacking though, I'm in the first year of a computer science program
that I don't think is going to touch on anything kde related, Where
should I start if I wanted to get into kde hacking? Pick up the qt 4
manual, or something else?

I figured I'd answer that question in a blog entry as it is probably one a lot of people have. So here's the short story:

1. Qt4 comes with a set of tutorials. They are excellent, and walk one through all the basics.


2. Techbase has a great set of Tutorials that provide great follow up to that


3. Techbase's Getting Started will provide you with instructions needed to get a KDE4 env up, running and in a state ready for hacking, hacking, hacking!


4. KDE's API documentation is a great reference once you've started working on KDE


5. bugs.kde.org lists a lot of open issues if you are looking for small tasks to start with


6. KDE
   is a meta project made up of lots of smaller projects, such as KDE Edu,
   KDE Games, KOffice, Dolphin, Okular, Solid, Phonon, CoreLibs, Plasma,
   SystemSettings, etc, etc, etc... find something in KDE that fills you
   with the urge to hack and get in touch with that project. Most of them
   have mailing lists and irc channels; if you can't find them you can
   just ask on the general KDE forums such as kde-devel@kde.org or
   #kde-devel

Autopunteros C++ y compilación privada

Un artículo que explica los autopunteros de C++, y da un ejemplo del patrón/idiom "compiler-Firewall" para evitar recompilar todo un proyecto cuando cambia la parte privada de un .h.

Using auto_ptr Effectively
The Pimpl Idiom is useful for
reducing project build times because it prevents wide-ranging
recompilations of client code whenever the private portions of C change. For more about the Pimpl Idiom and how best to deploy compiler firewalls, see Items 26 to 30 in the book Exceptional C++ (Addison-Wesley, 2000).

// Example 4(b): A safer Pimpl, using auto_ptr
//

// file c.h
//
class C
{
public:
C();
/*...*/
private:
class CImpl; // forward declaration
auto_ptr<CImpl> pimpl_;
};

// file c.cpp
//
class C::CImpl { /*...*/ };

C::C() : pimpl_( new CImpl ) { }

Nota del editor: A veces, de forma inesperada, un post de
una sola línea, sin enlaces, sobre un tema muy concreto y que
parece destinado a pasar desapercibido se convierte en una fuente de
información y conocimiento. Naturalmente, el interés no
está aquí en el post en sí, sino en los de
más de 50 comentarios que ha suscitado en un solo día un
asunto tan especializado y ajeno a la actualidad. Por eso lo pasa a
portada, tal y como se ha sugerido. Una muestra palpable de que

Configuring email enabled lists

Email enabled lists
allow you to add items to a Sharepoint 2007 list by sending an email to
that list with the item(s) you wish to add as attachment(s).

To use e-mail enabled lists with a simple SMTP server setup on a domain controller server, you can do the following:

1. Install SMTP Server.
2. Open the IIS MMC snapin.
3. Right click on Properties of Default SMTP Virtual Server.
4. Click the Access Tab, Relay. Add the IP address of the SharePoint
   server to the computers that can relay through this virtual server.
5. Click the Delivery tab, Advanced. For Masquerade Domain enter the
   domain name of your server, leave the Smart Host blank. The
   configuration should look like that.
6. Open the SharePoint Central Administration and navigate to the Operations tab.
7. Under Topologies and Services categories - you will find a link to Incoming e-mail settings.
8. Enable incoming e-mail and use the advanced settings mode.
9. Leave the Directory Management Services defaults as they are (No).
10. Fill in the e-mail server display address to be <servername>.<DomainName>
11. For the drop folder put c:\inetpub\mailroot\drop - if you are not using the default settings you will need to change this.
12. Browse to your list/library.
13. Click on list settings for a specif list/library.
14. Under Communication settings, click Email settings.
15. Check the Enable this list to receive e-mails.
16. Fill in an e-mail address for the list/library.

To configure e-mail enabled lists with a simple SMTP server setup on
a standalone server, take a look at the steps highlighted here http://jopx.blogspot.com/2006/11/configuring-incoming-email-settings-in.html

Now with its own story to tell, the Dark Engineering Guild has remained hard at work on T2X: Shadows of the Metal Age...

Based on the critically-acclaimed Thief series, T2X is an unofficial expansion building on the technology that made Thief 2 a classic with critics and fans alike. More than 60 artists, designers, writers and programmers from the gaming community have contributed their talents to realize a fresh new Thief experience.

- Thirteen full-length missions take the action through city streets and rooftops, ancient tombs, hotels, museums, cathedrals and more in a gripping tale of vengeance and deception

- Ten new weapons and tools provide the means to evade, outwit, and out-fight your opponents, as well as bringing unprecedented levels of emergent gameplay to the Thief series

- Hundreds of new models, textures and sounds: 3000 lines of new dialogue

- Four beautifully-rendered cutscenes and twelve new briefings in the original Thief style

- A new main character with a fluid, immersive narrative that grips the player until the last scene

Introducción a la meditación

Beginning Zen Meditation

Beginning Meditation - A Zen Primer

---

Find a quiet, comfortable spot. Not too hot or too cold; not too bright nor too dark.

Place a cushion on the floor, preferably resting on a thin pad (or blanket or carpeting). Meditation cushions and pads (zafus and zabutons) can be purchased commercially, but other materials, such as pillows, sofa cushions or rolled-up blankets will suffice for beginning meditation at home. Meditating in a chair or on a low bench will also work.

The sitting postures are illustrated in several books on Zen meditation, includingThe Three Pillars of Zen by Philip Kapleau and Taking the Path of Zen by Robert Aitken.

Four Elements Basic To Traditional Meditation

There are four elements basic to most traditional meditation. These elements are:

	A quiet place to meditate,
	A comfortable or poised posture,
	An object for attention-awareness to dwell upon,
	A passive attitude.

Cómo funcionan las pantallas táctiles

Incluida la pantalla multipunto del iPhone

Howstuffworks "How the iPhone Works
"

Most of the time, these systems are good at detecting the location
of exactly one touch. If you try to touch the screen in several places
at once, the results can be erratic. Some screens simply disregard all
touches after the first one. Others can detect simultaneous touches,
but their software can't calculate the location of each one accurately.
There are several reasons for this, including:

• Many systems detect changes along an axis or in a specific direction instead of at each point on the screen.
• Some screens rely on system-wide averages to determine touch locations.
• Some
  systems take measurements by first establishing a baseline. When you
  touch the screen, you create a new baseline. Adding another touch
  causes the system to take a measurement using the wrong baseline as a
  starting point.

  Multi-touch Systems

  
  

  To allow
  people to use touch commands that require multiple fingers, the iPhone
  uses a new arrangement of existing technology. Its touch-sensitive
  screen includes a layer of capacitive
  material, just like many other touch-screens. However, the iPhone's
  capacitors are arranged according to a coordinate system. Its circuitry
  can sense changes at each point along the grid. In other words, every
  point on the grid generates its own signal when touched and relays that
  signal to the iPhone's processor. This allows the phone to determine
  the location and movement of simultaneous touches in multiple
  locations. Because of its reliance on this capacitive material, the
  iPhone works only if you touch it with your fingertip -- it won't work
  if you use a stylus or wear non-conductive gloves.

Many aspects of personality are related to morality. Many aspects of behavior are influenced by moral motives. And many conflicts and misunderstandings are driven by differences in morality. But rather than simply telling you these things, we want you to see for yourself. After each questionnaire or experiment you complete, we'll give you an immediate report on how you scored, and what your score means.

Moral religiosa desde el punto de vista de la psicología

Ensayo sobre cómo se define la moralidad en términos de recientes teorías psicológicas.


Mind Hacks: Moral psychology and religious mistakes
Psychologist Jonathan Haidt has written a thought-provoking essay for Edge
which charts the recent revolution in the psychology and neuroscience
of moral reasoning and suggests that the current critiques of religion
have mischaracterised its true nature, based on these new findings.

Haidt suggests that the recent criticisms of religion don't always reflect the best psychological understanding of what are primarily social, rather than ideological, institutions, and notes research findings showing that religious people tend to be happier and more altruistic than others.

As a self-professed non-believer and high-profile social psychologist, Haidt makes some interesting points that are bound to cause controversy.

Visio Replacement? You Be the Judge

An Introduction to the Newest Simulation Tools

“In the same way that the Internet took us to the next level of
interaction, complete with rich visuals, simulations are doing the same
for application definition.”

Every decade, there’s a new
technology that fundamentally transforms the way people do business,
enhancing productivity and profitability along the way. In just the
past few years, the user experience community has become captivated by
the power of simulation software—the next-generation tool for
requirements definition needed to build any online application. Think
of it as the “flight simulator” for the IT industry.

In
yesterday’s world, the typical deliverable would consist of a
Visio diagram (composed of static wireframes) or a costly HTML
prototype (still very static in nature)—the equivalent of
drafting a car or a skyscraper in 2D. In today’s world, UX
professionals can produce simulations—high-fidelity visual
representations of what’s going to be built.

In the
same way that the Internet took us to the next level of interaction,
complete with rich visuals, simulations are doing the same for
application definition. The advantage that simulations offer over
traditional deliverables is that they provide interactivity without
requiring the IA to know scripting or a programming language. Plus,
with some packages, changes can even be propagated to all related
documents.

Simulations can be used for ideation, definition,
validation, development, and pre-development usability testing. Once a
simulation has been modeled, its usefulness far exceeds that of any
static wireframe primarily because of the simulation’s ability to
look and act like the final product.
