Daring Fireball quoting Bruce Schneier:
Despite fearful rhetoric to the contrary, terrorism is not a transcendent threat. A terrorist attack cannot possibly destroy a country’s way of life; it’s only our reaction to that attack that can do that kind of damage. The more we undermine our own laws, the more we convert our buildings into fortresses, the more we reduce the freedoms and liberties at the foundation of our societies, the more we’re doing the terrorists’ job for them.
My thoughts exactly.
Interesting, because those sound an awful lot like the thoughts of those who first put the phrase "...Or the terrorists win" into the lexicon.

06:43 - You can't be "not ready" after running the thing for three years

Sweet:
An initial report from Consumerist.com, quoting an AT&T online service rep, suggested that the carrier had shut down online sales because “New York was not ready for the iPhone,” and that the city didn’t “have enough towers to handle the phone.”
Something tells me this whole AT&T/iPhone thing is going to have to come to a head pretty damn quick. I've never once seen an AT&T ad mention the iPhone among its supposedly "flagship" devices; any impartial observer would have to assume that they're either ashamed of it (makes no sense), or desperate to get people to stop buying it.
Doesn't Apple traditionally have some kind of announcement thing 'round about this time of year? Just wondering.
Via JMH and Fake Steve, where this video of what happens if you don't say "Bing" the right way in front of Ballmer is eye-opening.
