11/02/2011 - It happened today

I’m impressed. Today a lot of important things just happened, and I think it’s work putting them down. Tahrir Square pushes Hosni Mubarak down After what he said yesterday night, I was not expecting this to happen so soon. Mubarak stepped down! In addition of being a great news for all my friends that are directly or indirectly related to Egypt, this is an INCREDIBLE news for something I tagged as “lost”: hope. ...

Video of the Day

> Title: Bill Gates: the last day at Microsoft. I know that probably this is OLD, but… this is really funny! I have to say that [en:Bill Gates] surprised me for being so ironic about himself, his money and his power! I still don’t like you Bill, but at least you are better than big-fat-idiot-[en:Steve Ballmer].

Hide-a-Pod

[en:London] is one of the best place… if you want to steal an iPod: as average, every train in the tube has 10 iPods inside. And other 5 are inside any bus. But, because of this, the number of pod-snatching is very very high, and you can see in every station (particularly in Camden Town ;)) ads suggesting to “take care of your belongings”, a lot of them dedicated to the [en:iPod|Pod] of [en:Steve_Jobs|Jobs]. But now, there is a solution: and it comes from the smallest (LOL) competitor of iPod: [en:Zune|The MS Zune]!!! It is called Hide-a-Pod!!! ...

Risposta ad OSS|Blog.it

Ieri sono passato, come di consueto, su OSS|Blog.it e cosa ci trovo? Un brevissimo articolo su alcuni commenti che Nigel Clifford, CEO di Symbian, ha fatto su Linux e sul mercato degli smartphone con i piedi palmati. Ho provato ad inserire la mia risposta sul relativo post… ma niente. Dice che sto spammando. Quindi… provvedo a farlo da qui. Allora. Prima di essere assunto da Symbian, quando iniziai a studiarne la tecnologia e il Sistema Operativo, mi domandai come diavolo facevano a vendere una cosa così: Niente Eccezioni (Leave), niente (o quasi) thread (Active Objects), niente POSIX (almeno fino a quando mi hanno assunto, che è coinciso con il rilascio di P.I.P.S.), e… niente STL (ma staremo a vedere ancora per quanto ;) ). ...

MS: «Was DES cracked? Really?»

Yeasterday Nemo and I have found a post on OSSBlog about the new release of ophcrack 2.3.4. Ophcrack is a Windows password cracker based on rainbow tables. It is a very efficient implementation of rainbow tables done by the inventors of the method. It comes with a GTK+ Graphical User Interface and runs on [en:Windows], [en:Mac OS X] (Intel CPU) as well as on [en:Linux]. In the last release, ophcrack supports [en:Windows Vista|Vista]. Mmmm… sounds strange. ...

XCode meets Mono

And… seems to be a nice meeting. ;) After a lot of development, the comunity surrounding the project realeases last stable version 1.2.3.1 of Mono. What about [en:Mac_OS_X|Mac OS X]? Here is a dedicated page on the official wiki of Mono. And, in particular, I’m happy to highlight a tutorial/howto about XCode and Mono integration: CSharpPlugin. I know that [en:Mono_(software)|Mono] is the open-source implementation of [en:.NET_Framework|.Net] (started by [en:Novell]), and that I hate [en:Microsoft|M$], but… I can’t hate a framework. It’s like to hate the [en:Plutonium] because we make the [en:Atomic_Bomb] with it! ;) ...
