Every couple of months I keep dreaming of being adult and working but that I still have to pass some university exams. Tonight I dreamed about “Prestressed concrete structures” which is still being taught by Di Prisco. Quite obviously I would say because a couple of weeks ago I attended a course on fiber reinforced concretes held by Di Prisco himself.
It’s quite funny to notice that even my wife keeps making dreams like this…
I’m going to get a new workstation. This time I will use CentOS, so I will have a real machine to test Liberty Eiffel rpm packages
They won’t change. That’s the usual, maddening bureaucracy that is sinking this country. That’s the only thing a good-willed person can say after reading Dichiarazione dei forfettari: occorre tenere la contabilita expecially this passage:

Today I have realised that I never published all the programs I have been writing during my career in the building industry.
I always have been thinking that they weren’t worth to be published as I would have labelled them as “little hacks”.
Until today.
Today I realised that they actually show some of my programming skills, mainly used to deal with the little frictions between legacy and newer softwares.
For today I will publish them, partly here, partly on github. After all so many people have been using github repositories as a coding portfolio.
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.
