Audit finished. It’s time to celebrate a little (with a gift given to my wife who don’t like wine, no one is perfect)…

Master of cracking
It seems that I’m a master in breaking automated tests. Do you think I can count it as a proficiency? 🙂 Liberty Eiffel automated tests (Bell branch) Last update: 2016-05-11 11:44:02 +0200 (CEST) git pull failed (1)

Hardware
Driving me crazy
This little Inforce IFC 6410 is a really good ARM system but there’s a little glitch that is driving me crazy: I just can’t make it see the Micro SD plugged in. I cannot even make the device appear under /dev or in the dmesg log. Any help welcome, of course.

I may discover that those that I rate as skills are staple, day-by-day skills that every system administration worth of the name shall have or that those are not actually skills. I will take the risk of being joked on the net as the civil engineer who liked to behave as an IT professional but he’s actually a low tech guy.
Actually during all those years – you won’t believe it – for this company I’ve been coding in:
- Commodore 64 BASIC
- Amigabasic
- AREXX
- Python
- some bash, also using ask and sed
- a little C
So, let this “Paolo the wannabe” series being…

Copper bars sunsets
I saw this effect too many times on Amiga games, thanks to the almighty Copper. These photos of sunsets captured with a smartphone almost look like Copper-bars. When I was younger I thought that those were only games fantasies, but those looks like 1bit backgrounds with a 24bit AAA CopperList applied…
