Fa poc que he acabat el llibre “Los Últimos Libres” de Victor M. Valenzuela. Es pot comprar en format epub o en format paper. M’ha agradat molt! L’autor és enginyer informàtic, el llibre és fàcil de llegir i m’ha enganxat molt. Es pot llegir en pocs dies ja que és curt i fàcil de llegir. […] Last June I mentioned in another blog post: on the last weekend of April I started the London LOOP (London Outer Orbital Circle). In the first weekend of October I finished it! 240 Km, 15 stages (officially 23 stages but I followed a book that divided it into 15 stages). The London LOOP has been […] Like in 2013 I attended the Pycon-UK conference in Coventry. Amazing conference, I went to many talks with different topics: Python itself, high performance Python, testing software, some more social talks, the always interesting lightning talks, etc. I could write about many of the talks but some people are already doing it in the PostConf […] There are many webpages talking about the London Underground. The oldest in the world, very iconical, unused stations, etc. Here I just want to compare a few things between the London Underground and Barcelona metro. One of the subtle differences is the escalator speed. Yes, the escalators in the London Underground are noticeably faster than […] Last month I went to Barcelona and I visited Mare Nostrum: a supercomputer in Barcelona. For information about the Mare Nostrum you could read the Wikipedia (obviously Dr. Watson), the Barcelona Supercomputer Centre webpage (or see the photo gallery). They even have a Youtube channel with interesting videos. Mare Nostrum is inside a building that […] Helen Arney, during one of the Festival of the Spoke Nerd, sang this song: She did amazingly, as always! I’ve talked about her here in Pintant (with a video or the Festival of the Spoken Nerd). And another song worth a mention: Prime numbers have always been special for me. My second webpage, […] Do you want to have an non-productive and bad programming day? I can help you! Keep reading, be my guest. Everything will go bad, don’t worry! First of all, and for this particular example: you need a bug. A non trivial one and a bit obscure is better. Let’s say that to test if the […] At Mendeley we are working on a new API and the documentation is already available at dev.mendeley.com. We think that a good API is important to promote Mendeley, create an ecosystem, help niche use cases that we could not tackle, etc. Since January I have been using Whatsapp. It helps me to keep in contact […] Finalment el meu germà Jordi Pina també té pàgina Web! Si algú necessita un enginyer industrial o químic que avisi. Yesterday I upgraded my Debian distribution. I usually use Debian Testing but I don’t run apt-get upgrade frequently. Many years ago, when I was studying, I used to do it every day but nowadays I do it a few times a year. Yesterday I upgraded the system and I got a new Firefox version, LibreOffice […] |
