listening to an awesome execution of Brandenburg Concerto n°5 BWV 1050, one of my absolute favourite pieces at Santuario del Santo Crocifisso in Desio.

Awesome because it’s well played and executed, and it’s played by friends!

Ti daranno anche il UaiFai gratuito. Poi però si dimenticano di caricare uno straccio di pagina di presentazione sul sito istituzionale.

Andate su http://comune.lissone.mb.it/. Ci si aspetterebbe di trovare il sito del comune. O meglio ancora di essere indirizzati automagicamente su http://www.comune.lissone.mb.it/. Sì, ok, senza crittazione, vabbè.

Invece trovate questa cosa qua:

Che per l’amor di Dio non fa male a nessuno, ma mi lascia l’impressione del lavoro un po’ approssimativo.

It’s funny, but I often search for “laptop” in my own blog as I keep forgetting the name of the Slimbook, the Spanish company devoted to Free-as-in-freedom software.

My main machine keeps having grave hardware glitches – it keeps switching off at random times – and my laptops are all too old, too underpowered or both to be productive.

Is it time to give C++ a second canche or to revive mi interest for Eiffel?

Source: Most Popular Programming Languages: C++ Knocks Python Out of Top Three in New Study – Slashdot

C++ has knocked machine-learning favorite Python out of the top 3 in the TIOBE Index of popular programming languages. From a report: It marks a reversal of fortune for C++, which, after years of occupying third place in the index, was pushed down to fourth place by Python in September last year. First and second place in the list remain unchanged, with Java in pole position and C at number two. The TIOBE Index attempts to estimate the popularity of languages worldwide based on results from major search engines. The index is sometimes criticized for being a rather blunt measure, likely to be influenced by a range of factors beyond a language’s popularity, but its rankings are broadly in line with others, with a similar mix of languages albeit arranged in a different order.

In an analysis alongside the latest figures, TIOBE attributes the comeback of C++ to a surge in its popularity, rather than a fall in the use of Python. “This is certainly not because Python is in decline: Python is scoring all time highs almost every month. It is just that C++ is also getting more and more popular,” it writes. The report credits this growing interest in C++ to C++11, the version of the language released in 2011 that TIOBE said made C++ “much simpler, safer and more expressive.”
