Learn to Read Graphs or Go Home
(this is a rhetorical post to Code Hard or Go Home, ’cause the amount of bullshit in the post is so much that you can call it almost a “cesspool post” instead of “blog post”)
There is one thing I really don’t like: Percentages, because it’s so easy to mess with the information in a single message. If [...]
I Don’t Support a WebKit Monoculture ...
Things in the internet space are weird.
First you have a guy telling that he would support a monopoly in the browser market (which I fully raged against). And then, out of nowhere, one of the jQuery guys come out and tell everyone that they are tired of doing hacks to avoid WebKit bugs — which finally sparked the Chrome/WebKit team to f [...]
I Don’t Support a WebKit Monocu...
So there is this post by Jeremy Khan about his support for a WebKit monoculture. The whole thing is so retarded and moronic it’s not even worth reading, but I did and now I’m in full rage.
Let me explain why this is stupid:
Strong Corporate Leadership
This is cited twice in the post and, honestly, it may actually be a bad thing in [...]
Senna (2010)
The usual IMDB Plot:
A documentary on Brazilian Formula One racing driver Ayrton Senna, who won the F1 world championship three times before his death at age 34.
The usual spoiler alert… Wait a freaking second, this is documentary! It’s like asking to not spoil the result of the World War II.
So I finally watched the documentary t [...]
The Avengers (2012)
Hey, look! I’m not dead. Check pulse. Yup, I’m sure, not dead.
As usual in movie reviews, here comes… THE IMDB PLOT!
Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D. brings together a team of super humans to form The Avengers to help save the Earth from Loki and his army.
Spoilers? Spoilers. I mean, for sure this time, I need to spoil this. Also, [...]
TwentyEleven With Easy Rotating Heade...
I have a secondary blog which I wanted to have some special header images. One nice thing about the new default WordPress theme, TwentyEleven, is that you can have a couple of header images and rotate them randomly. A bad thing about the new default WordPress theme is that it’s annoying adding new header images.
At first I got this post [...]
Of Jobs, rms and Ritchie
Last two weeks were a complete train-wreck for people in IT: First, Steve Jobs died on October 5. I thought I should write something to “enlighten” some people saying things like “Oh, he did some gadgets, so what?” But, when I was waiting for the dust to settle, rms came with an statement that inflamed a lot of people, [...]
You May Have Talent, But You’re...
There is yet another video floating around about a kid in some “Got Talent”-like show, telling his sad history and then singing in some ok fashion.
Now you must be asking yourself “What video is this?” and that’s the core of the point I’m trying to make: Every single “Got Talent” video that hits [...]
Your Editor Shows the Flaws of Your L...
In a recent update of Sublime Text 2, my programming editor of choice of these days (only ’cause I wanted a break from VIM, for the fun of having to learn how to edit things in the “normal person” way) got a “Vim mode” and I decided to enable all the other features, just for kicks. One of those features was the & [...]
Who’s the best captain?
It’s been some time I’m trying to find the perfect timing for a Star Trek post and it seems the celebration of 45 years since the first episode makes it a perfect time for it.
Before I go, I think it’s better to tell you what are my expectations in the Star Trek universe. When Gene Ronddenberry created Star Trek, his plan wa [...]
