I have always been fond of hand-written fonts. I discovered Playwrite on Google Fonts. Wonderful dozens on national variations. https://fonts.google.com/?query=playwrite+&classification=Handwriting Also https://primarium.info/handwriting-models And especially the Italian “Corsivo tradizionale” that is “traditional cursive”.

I fornitori non sono tutti uguali
Stando all’opinione di Giorgio Sommaruga i fornitori di connettività non sono tutti uguali. E sottolineo che quella di Giorgio è la sua opinione. Dal poco che lo conosco molto attendibile. Le conclusioni che traggo sono che TIM, Vodafone e FastWeb vanno evitate come la peste. Aruba pare meglio. Personalmente mi sto trovando molto bene con…

Cheating
Surely they are not free-as-in-freedom software. Plus they resemble cheating to me! But they look so tempting!

Siate egregi
Per esempio pensa alla parola “egregio”. Lunedì entra in classe, e scrivila alla lavagna, se ti va. Perché egregio viene da ex-grege, e significa “fuori dal gregge”.

There’s actually plenty of open source apps that are objectively far superior to their proprietary counterparts, especially lately.
Eiffel, Senza categoria
Name hijacking
I like the programming language named Eiffel, at least since 1998. Now I discover its name is somehow being robbed by a CI/CD project. I simply had to let Bertrand Meyer, father of Eiffel know it. The easiest way I found is throught X (once known as Twitter): Dear professor @Bertrand_Meyer, I’m sure you have…
