Re: [NTLK] Stupid programming horse sh%t

Me and my wife are DINKs...Who's got time for miniature copies anyways?
  I know I don't.
  Oh, and I really enjoy home automation! Unfortunatly, since I moved into my new house last year, there are other projects that demand my attention other than automating the whole house! But I did take the quick and easy way out by hooking up a bunch of x-10 modules for some really basic stuff.
  How about this for automating your homw and personelle recognition?
  Most everybody has a cellphone. Cellphones transmit on specific frequencies and regularly transmit identifying information...why not use that information to have the house recognize you when you approach the building? As long as your cell is on, your house will let you in!

Oh, by the way, do you have a Mrs.? Children?

I started looking into the internet enabled RFID for my exterior doors and
other appliances, can I join your admittedly addicted internet group? Oh and
to stay on topic, since my 2100 is WiFi'd I can open the door of choice from
my Newton...

Hey! I don't have an internet addiction!
Just because I sometimes, wake up face down on my keyboard, the screen
displaying what can only be the next great novel (and I'm not even writing
one...while I'm awake) when viewed through my groggy eyes, and when I look
in the mirror, there is a distinct keyboard impression embossed in my skin
from my chin to my ear...(that little bump on the "J" key hurts!) don't mean
I'm addicted! I can quit anytime! Just because I don't go anywhere withough
my blackberry or my 802.11b capable Newton and my Canary Wireless
Hotspotter...doesn't mean that this stuff is important!
Or that I don't mind paying almost $300/month HOA fee because that
includes a 100mbps Fiber to the basement internet connection! And I'm
seriously mulling over the idea of vehicle to vehicle, peer to peer
filesharing while cruising down the highway at 65mph! And hey! my house is
wired for cameras and they are connected to the internet and I have a
picture of every face that has shown up at my door (I can recognize my UPS
delivery man at the grocery store and I've never met him!)
On topic? OK...I'm not addicted to the internet...I will gladly admit my
addiction, and proudly...it is my Newton....
Ray Kurtzweil (of Kurtzweil keyboards fame) has a group called the
Singularity (I'l leave that lookup as an exercize to the reader...I'm not
the one addicted to the internet) that postulates on the future of the
mechanical/electrical evolution of the human being. There is great
consternation amoungst the doubters that such a melding will never
happen...I say that it already has. With my Newt at my side for the last
dozen or so years now, I can go back to the early 90s and retreive a meeting
note, or a list of songs I liked with a simple search...it's all there for
me to grab.
My only complaint is that while the interface is easy and intuitive, it
needs to be easier and innocuous. And the data needs to be arranged in a
manner that is easier to assemble into what the human brain is better at
than an electrical brain...pattern recognition.
If someone can use the Newton ToolKit to assemble an application that
replicates the spacial storage that the human brain requires for pattern
recognition, then the Newt would be the perfect machine...a machine to hand
down to progeny to jumpstart their learning...there's no reason everybody
needs to relearn what someone before them already learned!

I thought that UNNA at least would make the process as simple and as easy as

neccessity Newton SDK and documentation, for God's sake.
