Huge, sprawling, messy, and I think very important essay on the future of Windows:

I'm too idiosyncratic a user to judge a train wreck. But Windows 8 looks an awful lot like one. http://t.co/12c827eB (þ @timbray)
An open letter to journalism students

OK, here's an awkward Q. Who is the most accomplished journalist whose only credential is from Kwantlen Polytechnic
Once again, people, real journalism costs money. It must be paid for or it won't be produced, notwithstanding your sense of entitlement.
"These difficult measures are needed to bring about a world where media organizations consist entirely of directors, executives, & salesmen"
Love how it's always editorial that's cut by media "bridging" print & digital. What's supposed to be left on opposite side if not journos?
But what's really amazing: Beamon's record has still only been beaten the one time. & Carl Lewis's 8.87 in the duel with Powell is still 3rd
Bob Beamon's famously unchallengeable 8.90m long-jump record lasted 23 years. Don't look now, but Mike Powell's 8.95 turns 21 this summer.
The "that was due to exchange rate developments" is NOT empty boilerplate. It's key to interpreting the finding.
"33 and 39 per cent of the manufacturing employment loss that was due to exchange rate developments between 2002 and 2007"
@colbycosh Also, why is Brian Topp auditioning to be the Premier of Alberta?
