A regularly published podcast by a self-described hacker, curmudgeon and hacktivist about the practice and profession of programming drawing on over a decade of professional experience and a lifetime spent hacking, the intersection of politics and society with technology and anything else clever, elegant or funny that catches my mind as a die hard technology geek.

This is news cast 203, an episode of The Command Line Podcast. In the intro a quick overview on my convention schedule for this year. This week's security alert is just an in depth discussion of a concerning interview that revealed some internal privacy issues at Facebook. In this week's news I spend more time on Google's announcement that it is reviewing its operations in China. Wired has more details from an inside source. Glyn Moody suggests a reasonable hypothesis of why now. And Mac Slocum has a bevy of opinions at O'Reilly Radar. China has also already responded. The other stories this week are an essay on the benefit of viewing HTML source and its potentially endangered future and a new initiative that may ultimately allow users to build their own laptops. Following up this week a further refinement of the FLOSS license icons and the UK offers a compromise on the pirate catcher powers in the Digital Economy Bill.

This is a feature cast, an episode of The Command Line Podcast. In the intro, a quick recap of my experiences at World's Fair Use Day. I may share a longer blog post or podcast segment once I finally get a chance to sift through my notes. Listener feedback is from Philippe who mentions Xdebug and Philip who mentions Devel::NYTProf which just had a recent release. Both wrote in response to my Hacking 101 on speed and performance, specifically to my open question about profilers. Thanks for the leads. The hacker word of the week this week is Exploder. The feature this week is an Inner Chapter on accomplishment. More news and commentary, the alternate feed, and downloadable show notes available at http://thecommandline.net/.

In this week's news Jaron Lanier's Web 2.0 rant, whether cheap tech undermines legal protections including broader ramifications for online privacy, testing the first build of Mozilla's multi-process project which I first mentioned over six months ago, and the government is skeptical of an earlier suggestion that more wireless spectrum will increase broadband competition.
