I would like to know the ESV guys because it appears that I have much in common with them. It seems very rare that a Biblical translation would have as many geeky features. The latest proof is the social network map of the New Testament. Too, too cool.
Through a tickler from Jonathan Schwartz’s blog, I notice the Sun - Intel announcement. Looks to be a very good thing for Sun as they work to legitimize the open-sourced Solaris operating system on Intel hardware, but it puts geeks like me in a pinch, Linux or Solaris…tough call.
But what does it cost and can you really get help from Sun? The word from the mavens (Joyent, matt mullenweg) is mixed.
Finally, what does an endorsement from Intel mean? Does Intel endorse Linux? What’s the significance of an Intel endorsement of Java? The marketing (dark) side of me says that it’s got to be good when two CEOs of big companies get together and talk about Java and open source, but the engineer in me wonders how this will make my life easier.
