I have signed again with the Martin Ennals Foundation to take care of their website again; if you don’t know it yet, the MEF gives a yearly prize to a Human Rights defender, providing press coverage as well as much needed protection. The MEF is composed of 10 Human Rights organizations, among them Amnesty and [...]

Ruby on Rails goes 1.0; read the announcement!

A couple of weeks ago, a colleague and I were doing the design of a Pocket PC application, and I suggested to quickly put up a prototype; I had Visual Studio .NET installed in a Virtual PC virtual machine, so I fired it up, and created the application. As soon as I tried to launch [...]

This weekend I reinstalled my iBook G3 with Jaguar, Ruby, MySQL, and of course iTunes; I grabbed a couple of screenshots while upgrading; these show the evolution of the iTunes interface in 3 years:

Este E-Mail es solo para argentinos. Analisis profundo de la palabra “PEDO”
Esto aconteció en Bahía Blanca, y tuvo como protagonistas a una familia y una visitante canadiense que se alojó en su casa por espacio de tres meses. La historia es así y es, palabra más, palabra menos, totalmente verídica. Creo que es digna [...]
