My wife and me are returning teenagers, having a race to finish reading Harry Potter’s books. We feel almost childish.
Moving
That’s moving: Sarchive.org releases some 10000 Amiga software
Experience and confidence
Did You Know that unskilled individuals tend to grossly overestimate their abilities while high-skilled individuals tend to believes that tasks they perform well at are easy for everybody, thus underestimating their abilities
Let’s hope I’m not on the spike speaking of my IT proficiencies…

That ackward time
That ackward time when you feel silly, dumb and dumber all the same time.
That is when you found another seemingly innocent one-liner that triggers an infinite recursion with stack exaustion and consequent crash of the app with something as simple as:
properties_upper: INTEGER is do Result := properties_upper-1 end
The silly aspect is that I already fixed another one like that.
Windows Subsystem for Linux
Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) is a compatibility layer for running Linuxbinary executables (in ELF format) natively on Windows 10. Microsoft and Canonical partnered together to enable a genuine UbuntuTrusty Tahr image to be downloaded and extracted to the user’s local machine, and for the tools and utilities contained within that image to run natively on top of the WSL.
Some people may say that we’re at step four:
- First they ignore you,
- Then they laugh at you,
- Then they fight you,
- Then you win.
I’m not that sure. The once-dark-knight doesn’t look that dangerous these days. The evil overlord is now another.

I can tolerate being forced to use a couple of times your proprietary software – paid by my employer. I also acknowledge that it’s not the latest release.
Just let me tell you that finding «vSphere Remote Command Line» for GNU/Linux is just a pain, as the link you provided into your own ESXi 4 is hopelessly broken.
Mildly put using your website is a severely suboptimal experience.
Greetings.
Embarrassingly small
Those USB memory sticks are becoming embarrassingly small. I bought this three days ago and I have been looking into my pouches at least five times a day, fearing I’ve lost it
Dystopia’s coming
Password Sharing Is a Federal Crime, Appeals Court Rules
The dystopian world depicted by Richard Stallman in his short tale “The right to read” is slowly coming. We already have DRM – Digital Restriction Management – now, sharing password has been turned into a crime.
This has to be stopped. Now.
Microsoft Says It’s in Love With Linux. Now It’s Finally Proving It | WIRED

OK, wired is not such a prestigious source for an hacker but this means that’s it has really reached prime time.
Microsoft has really released it as free-as-in-freedom software. This time is for real. And even people like me who has often cried at “timeo Danaos et dona ferentes” shall acknowledge that it can’t be a trick.
Nowaday it becomes more important for me to keep using the Gpl licenses.
