Amazing Xcode

Date Arrow  May 29, 2008

Xcode is amazing. Of all the IDEs I’ve used (and this is, as always, a personal opinion, having used Visual Studio since version 6, Eclipse, Kdevelop and others) it’s the one I prefer. And today I found another reason to like it.
I’ve noticed this: when I use Xcode on a single-processor machine (such as a [...]

Date Arrow  May 28, 2008

ImageMagick is a cool toolkit; not only it’s a complete set of command-line applications, ported to Windows, Mac and Linux, supporting hundreds of different image formats, it’s also a C++ library that you can use in your own applications!
On Mac OS X, I installed it via MacPorts using the all-time classic:
sudo port install ImageMagick
Then I [...]

Pourquoi pas?

Date Arrow  May 21, 2008

Pourquoi ne peut-on pas avoir des conférences comme celle-ci, avec des mini-events comme celui-ci en parallèle en Romandie? Ou encore comme celle-ci? Ou bien comme cette autre! Ou celle-là!
Pourquoi pas? Est-ce que le marché est trop petit? Y a-t-il un manque d’intérêt général? Je pense que le problème est important, et qu’une grande partie de [...]

Ojo con los Orozco, por León Gieco

Date Arrow  May 20, 2008

Nosotros no somos como los Orozco,
yo los conozco, son ocho los monos:
Pocho, Toto, Cholo, Tom,
Moncho, Rodolfo, Otto, Pololo.
Yo pongo los votos sólo por Rodolfo,
los otros son locos, yo los conozco, no los soporto.
Stop. Stop.
Pocho Orozco:
Odontólogo ortodoxo, doctor
Como Borocotó
Oncólogo jodón Morocho tordo
Groncho jocoso
Trosko
Chocó con los montos
Colocó Molotov. Bonzo.

On the Need of Minimalist Polyglots

Date Arrow  May 12, 2008

Many companies, at some point of their history, ask themselves a simple question: what programming language should I use? The answer to this question is tricky, and has big, big consequences, for every single line of code of your future products will be written, read and suffered by it. This single choice defines the level [...]
