To: The Masthead
From: Newsroom Innovation Team Subject: Our recommendations

Six months ago, at the request of Jill and Dean, this team of journalists began studying our newsroom and the changing digital landscape with the goal of making recommendations about where The Times can improve.

This effort comes at a moment when The Times is buzzing with innovative new initiatives. NYT Now is changing the way our journalism is presented on mobile devices. Cooking is reimagining our service journalism for digital platforms. Times Insider is pulling back the curtain on how our journalists work. The Upshot com- bines smart analysis, writing and data visualization with personality.

Even as we celebrate success in these new areas, our mandate was to look further into the future and ask what else we should consider to foster innovation around our core: The New York Times and the world-class journalism we produce day after day.

Our team embarked on a deep reporting project focused on how to expand the reach and impact

1. Download the firmware, stock or no red text hboot
2. Boot your M8 into the bootloader, and check for fastboot usb mode
3. CMD: fastboot oem rebootRUU
4a. fastboot flash zip 4.16.401.9-Firmware.zip [for the stock one]
4b. fastboot flash zip 4.16.401.9-Firmware-noredtext.zip [for the noredtext one]
4c. fastboot flash zip 4.16.401.9-noredtext-HBOOT-only.zip [You need at least 4.16.401.9 Stock Firmware to flash this one!]
4d. You need to do the command twice if the CMD says: "pre-update, reflash immediately"
5. If you get "Successful" at the end of the CMD output, type: fastboot reboot-bootloader

Wow!  I had no idea that Microsoft was so generous as to release a specification they designed to take marketshare/mindshare away from a competitor that they would let an international standards body govern it.  There certainly would be no marketing upside to that.  And I can't think of any other time they've done that before.  Oh wait:

OOXML vs. ODF
Sun JVM vs. MS JVM incompatibilities
Javacript vs. JScript
IE's original HTML "extensions"

They have a phrase for this over there:  "Embrace and extend".

In regards to Johnny Lee being Microsoft hobag, it's more than just his use of C#. His Wii Projects are all based on DirectX and Windows Presentation Framework.  Yes, there are free tools for developing in C# and DirectX/WPF.  Well, OK there's only one:  Visual Studio Express, which is targeted at beginners and designed to get you to "graduate" to their paid product.  But there is no way to run/develop in any other OS unless you use an emulator or WINE...and even then it's a dicey prospect.  I'm not saying C#

"When computer scientists dissect the massive rivers of traffic flowing through it, they cannot account
for the source of all the bits. Every now and then a bit is transmitted incorrectly, and while most
of those mutations can be attributed to identifiable causes such as hacking, machine error, or line damage,
the researchers are left with a few percent that somehow changed themselves. In other words, a small
fraction of what the technium communicates originates not from any of its known human-made nodes but from
the system at large. The technium is whispering to itself."

From What Technology Wants
