I’ve been using my e-reader (Kobo Glo) for aproximately one year now.. I’m very happy with the purchase! I find it very convenient, I explained in the other post (in Catalan). There is one thing that I’ll miss if everybody uses e-readers. I really like to browse book shelves when I’m invited to someone’s house. […] There is the concept of User Pain. Useful concept which I’ve used at work. It’s not perfect, might need tweaking for each situation but works well. In a nutshell: given a software bug it is possible to quantify the pain caused by the bug to all the users based on the type of bug (crash, […] I’ve spent a couple of months migrating some code from OAuth1 to OAuth2. I helped to shape the OAuth2 services, the first API calls in the new platform, set up all the new infrastructure in the client side. Usually I like to have, as soon as possible, an end to end working case. It helps […] A few weeks ago I went to Copenhagen. Even though I’m not a beer fan I like visiting breweries and learning about their story. Usually they have contributed to the history of the region. I liked the Carlsberg museum more than the Guinness one, even though I enjoyed both. The Guinness brewery is more modern… […] Time to get more social. No, not jumping to Facebook. Or to Twitter. But I’ve been moving some code from my “private”, or a at least, not very public, Git repositories (http://git.pinux.info/) to my Github account (https://github.com/cpina?tab=repositories). I’ve been using github as a collaborator for some projects and I thought that was time to move […] We usually say “Good morning”, “good night”, “Happy New Year!”, or “have a nice weekend!”. We say this to wish a nice morning, night, year or weekend. But I think that we are missing some other important time units: weeks and months. I advocate that we should also say “good week” (on Mondays) and “good […] On the last couple of entries I wrote about waiters. I remembered about something that I sometimes think… why some word is that word? Why a “waiter” is called a waiter? My guess is that because they wait. They wait that someone orders something, they wait for the kitchen to finish something, etc. And a […] I usually go everywhere with my backpack. Mainly everyday, since 2006, with the same backpack (a Targus one. Last year it got broken -my bad- and I bought the same model). When, for some reason, I don’t carry the backpack, I always miss something that I have there (the bottle of water, USB Stick, a […] Some weeks ago I went to a French grill nice restaurant. Nice as good food, service, etc. In the City of London. It was a cold Sunday, 1pm, so the restaurant was empty. Later one it was quite full, and I guess that on the working days is completely full (lunch meetings and so on). […] One year ago I changed the server where Pintant is hosted. Previously it was hosted in a domestic ADSL server, now it’s in a Gandi VPS server. The server handles Pintant, some other Webs for my family, email, etc. Nothing very exciting and the email bit is the important one. Before it was in the […] |
