Tim Bray points to this crazy rant which argues that XML causes global warming.
1Passwd is a nifty password manager that works across multiple browsers on the Mac, ties into Keychain, .Mac (if you use that) and can manage multiple identities. Until OpenID becomes the norm, it’s a fairly nifty solution. It’s currently $10 off at maczot.
Drop outs on the rise
BBC News report that one-in-five students drop out from their university courses. This does not surprise me, and, as someone who has dropped out, and then subsequently went on to get a degree, I do not think that drop-outs are necessarily a bad idea.
I am extremely glad that I dropped out. Everything about my life has improved since doing so. It is sometimes an extremely positive thing. If you are doing something which you dislike, stopping it is a good thing.
