And it feels almost like the original!
A truly smart guy!

Only on the fool’s day I could have done the foolishness of coming to work on hour earlier than usual for the sake of a.l bet with a coworker… 🙂
Torvalds’ Secret Sauce For Linux: Willing To Be Wrong – from Slashdot
Torvalds explains the combination of youthful chutzpah, openness to other’s ideas, and a willingness to unwind technical decisions that he thinks were critical to the OS’s development: “I credit the fact that I didn’t know what the hell I was setting myself up for for a lot of the success of Linux. […] The thing about bad technical decisions is that you can always undo them. […] I’d rather make a decision that turns out to be wrong later than waffle about possible alternatives for too long.”
I shall keep it in mind. I hope it’s not too late.

VoCore: Mini Linux Computer, Take on Endless Electronic Projects with the Tiniest Linux Computer Yet!
This is more powerful than my first Linux box, which was an Amiga 1200 with 16mb of memory and a 50mhz Motorola 68060 CPU! They can’t make it smaller, they’ve hit the size of an Ethernet plug!
They got an Elephant In the House
From: Microsoft Tries Hard To Play Nice With Open Source, But There’s an Elephant In the Room – Slashdot
Esther Schindler writes: They’re trying, honest they are. In 2016 alone, writes Steven Vaughan-Nichols, Microsoft announced SQL Server on Linux; integrated Eclipse and Visual Studio, launched an open-source network stack on Debian Linux; and it’s adding Ubuntu Linux to its Azure Stack hybrid-cloud offering. That’s all well and good, he says, but it’s not enough. There’s one thing Microsoft could do to gain real open-source trust: Stop forcing companies to pay for its bogus Android patents. But, there’s too much money at stake, writes sjvn, for this to ever happen. For instance, in its last quarter, volume licensing and patents, accounted for approximately 9% of Microsoft’s total revenue.
Quite right. But I also acknowledge that also SirJorgelOfBorgel is quite reasonable:
“all in one” show events as regular posts – Cerca con Google
The one thing I really liked in “The Events Calendar” from Modern Tribe, Inc. is its ability to show its events in the flow of WordPress posts. Sadly its calendars cannot sync so people can’t just say “let’s subscribe to this nice calendar and see all those events in my calendar on my smartphone or at home”.
![[cml_media_alt id='1155']All in one event calendar[/cml_media_alt]](https://i0.wp.com/monodes.com/predaelli/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2016/03/featured-image-510x175.png?resize=510%2C175)
All-in-One Event Calendar on the contrary has everything I need for the forthcoming website of my parish “SS. Siro and Materno” in Desio. There is one thing it lacks that I find quite useful: the ability to show its events in the flow of WordPress posts.
All in One Events Calendar OR The Events Calendar ?
All in One Events Calendar OR The Events Calendar ? What is the best events calendar plugin for WordPress? This is a review of the All in One Events Calendar and The Events Calendar
I’m precisely in his situation for the website of my parish!
All in One has almost every I need, expecially integration with other services – namely Google, Outlook and so on – and easy, smooth and sleek end-user experience.
The events calendar is nice too and it smoothly integreates its events into the flow of WordPress posts. Yet it has one show-stopper missing feature: it does not sync with other calendars. People cannot subscribe to its calendar and see all the events on their smartphone or on ther email client. Too bad.
Unfinished
I found this photo on the website of professional association of architects of Monza and Brianza.
It makes me feel sad: I personally designed the concretes used to built that unfinished tower. Then I found this petition asking to demolish it. Then I don’t feel sad. Sadness turns into anger.
Unpure bliss
I kept having annoying glitches here in my own self-hosted WordPress network so I thought to uninstall the package from the distribution (Debian), installing the pure package from wordpress.org itself.
At first I was having the impression of pure bliss.
