Hard drive corruption on OS X?
For the 2nd time in two months, my hard drive has been corrupted beyond what fsck/Disk Utility/DiskWarrior can repair. Even the TechTool software that comes with the AppleCare package reported "Surface Scan Failed" and "Volume Structure Failed". If anyone else has seen this, please send me mail.

Specifically, 1) is this a sign of an impending catastrophic hard drive failure? 2) Are there any utilities that can provide a definitive report that the Apple technicians will take as a "replace that hard drive now" situation? Or am I being overly-paranoid again?

The friendly Apple guys reformatted my hard drive, which made the errors go away (for the time being). So, what's up?

NeoOffice/J
NeoOffice/J 0.8.2 is highly recommended if you're on OS X. It has tons of scary this-is-beta-and-might-not-even-work warnings, but it does. It seems snappier, looks somehow better (is it the font smoothing?), the command/ctrl keys work like you'd expect (not reversed, as with the X11 version), and it works better for drag-n-drop opening files. -m
Everything Must Go!
Here's an interesting project that ties in nicely with my recent reading of Text Processing in Python: markdown, a plain-text-ish format for writing.

I just used David Mertz's format in writing a Hack for _XML Hacks_, and I have to admit it was far easier than skipping over the tags, or even the rather good attempt at tagless-WYSIWYG-XML-editing I got from Morphon.

My initial comments:

Paragraphs should be allowed to be uniformly indented a few spaces. Like code, most text is read far more often than written, and every little bit of extra readablility helps.

The inline link syntax -- This is [an example](http://example.com/ "Title") inline link. -- doesn't seem natural. It's not the kind of thing you'd see in use anywhere. (The out-of-line links, however, are very slick) The image syntax is even less so -- 

For the image case, I'd take a hint from TPIP and use keywords (which are only recognized at the start of a line) in these cases
IMAGE: [alt text] "Optional title"

Two fires in Oroville require multiple resources

Seeing XForms Inside Out
At the O'Reilly Open Source Convention in Portland, come see my presentation Seeing XForms Inside Out:: Inside an XForms Validator (Thurs July 29). Whether you're just learning about XForms, or been working with it already, you will find some interesting insights by looking at XForms from the perspective of a validation tool.

If you can make it for the full week, I also have a half-day tutorial on Monday (July 26). Check it out! -m
Search
I've been particularly inspired lately by the problem of Search. Between the new employer, and reports of one-man search companies and reports of completely new technologies, this is getting to be quite an interesting space.

Which happens to mesh with my gradual project the last few months--converting all my stored information into good old UTF-8 plain text. The nexus of all these things is David Mertz's book Text Processing in Python, which references his excellent public domain text indexer code.

It wouldn't take much to convert my whole blog over to this system. Hmm. -m

Is enterprise search heating up?
Uh, yes. Link: John Batelle's searchblog

"It made me think, and I realized that in fact, enterprise search will probably rise again, and end up being one of the coolest things in search in the next few years. Why? Because it sucks so badly now, fixing it will be the kind of 10X revelation we had when we moved from Yahoo to Google in 1998-99."

Sharing vs. Sales
Record Industry Execs: File sharers are a bunch of freeloaders. Sharing hurts sales.
Geeks, etc.: File sharers are samplers. Sharing helps sales.
Ed Felten: Yes.

This seems dead on. The same dynamics apply to books available under an open content license as well as for sale. -m
