Everything that I write here on Pintant is my own personal opinion – it’s not my employer’s point of view. As many people here know here I work at Mendeley, in the Desktop team, designing and implementing Mendeley Desktop. Good fun! (seriously!). One of the things that Mendeley Desktop can do and that I usually […] Recently I came back from Fosdem 2014. This has been my 9th Fosdem – and I hope that many more will come! I don’t want to write about what I saw at Fosdem: it took about 5 hours of non-stop work to do a work report (based on the notes that I took there). And […] A few days ago I saw in Brussels: The shop was closed and had a sign saying that it’s open and no other information about opening times… so the sign says that it’s open when it’s open and also says that it’s open when it’s closed. It either says something true and useless, or […] Just a quick link: if you are learning a language you might be interested in Read Lang webpage. Steve Ridout, an ex-Mendeleyan, is building it and making very good progress. I could explain things here but it’s easier if you go and have a look. It will especially help you to read and understand texts, […] I’m really happy that WordPress implemented WordPress autoupdates, a few months ago. I have this blog since 2006, 7 years ago. When possible, I’ve always applied the WordPress updates from the dashboard, many times, during many years, without any issue (bear in mind that I hardly use any plugin in this website). Long time ago […] Some time ago I went to the Qt Developer Days 2013 (Berlin). I could write many things about that conference. For instance, George and I wrote about 5 pages to report back to our team with the summary of different talks and so on. But here I just want to mention: one of the keynotes […] Last month I went to the Python UK Conference 2013, in Coventry. It was a very interesting conference! It was my first time there. It’s a conference where the delegates really help organize it with talks, chairing sessions, etc. (all voluntarily). I learned quite a lot: about Python and software engineering in general. Many talks […] Bernadette song: The Big Bang Theory This is one of the top-10 moments of The Big Bang Theory: I liked the lyrics, the singing… everything! And after this song I had to go and listen to some of the songs of Helen Arney, such as: As you might know I like Festival of […] Fa temps sense voler em va sortir un acudit! A la feina em diuen que tenim una fixació, perquè veuen que tenim el Caga Tió, el Caganer (en tinc dos a la taula). I jo els hi vaig dir que anessin a cagar!! (bé, potser alguna fixació sí que tenim?) Two months ago I went to Scarborough. Nice time to finally see someone from Scarborough Linux User Group: Catux and Scarborough group are “sister LUGS”. We used to chat in the Catux mailing list in 2005 and 2006. 8 years later we met eachother. Amazing! On the way there one of the trains got delayed […] |
