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, […] 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 […] 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”.

On the way there one of the trains got delayed […] On Saturday I went to the new Cambridge Centre for Computing History. Or just.. The Computer Museum. Hats off to this museum! If you are interested in computers you should really go to the Computing History museum in Cambridge and also to the The National Museum of Computing in Bletchley, which is convenient because Bletchley […] We are hiring for different positions at Mendeley (now part of Elsevier). In the team where I work we are hiring a C++/Qt software engineer (see other positions). The C++/Qt position is to further develop Mendeley Desktop, which works on Windows, Linux and Mac. See the official job description, but bear in mind that we […] At Mendeley we have one hackday a month. One day, every month, we can do whatever we want more or less related to our jobs, technologies, etc. Some months ago I thought that it could be interesting to teach Python to the non-programmers (business, HR, etc.). I wanted them to understand what we do all […] Short version: Sunday Assembly (congregation without God) is crowdfunding to build a better website / other activites. You can donate. In London I’ve been to different ceremonies: Catholic, Orthodox, Christian, Budhist, Protestant, etc. I like to see the churches/temples, how they conduct the ceremony, their traditions, how attendants behave, etc. In one of my visits […] 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. […] |
