What about Peral's Submarine? (Spanish submarine) «she was launched 8 September 1888.» https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peral_Submarine
I read somewhere that Bill Gates' wife forced him to read at least one general magazine every month because he was completely disconnected from reality. He only consumed financial books and magazines and never watched…
What about Firebrick? the company that manufactures it says that it an in-house TCP/IP stack (I don't know if they run their own OS). http://www.firebrick.co.uk/
I think that you will find evidence in both directions. It was a feedback loop. The Americans soldiers had a racist preconception of the Japanese, and at the same time were exposed to the the atrocities that the…
I think you will find a few comments in this Quora thread can explain the "take no prisoners" policy. Basically the Japanese were using perfidy as a normal war tactic (perfidy is a war crime, surrender and then, when…
What if it's just people (exec) thinking that we are going to see a huge contraction in liquidity in the next 10 years? It could be an early warning that the central banks have injected too much money into the economy…
I don't get your point. My comment tried (possibly not very clearly) to talk about the differences between the other engineerings and software. People keep thinking that programmers are like factory employees. And…
Humans in advanced production lines are "actuators". They are not there to think, but to replace an hypothetical machine that it's not possible to build yet. We have those magical machines in software, we call them…
«...who's still using Ruby.», is the last part of your comment implying that they are an endangered species?
NOPE! That could imply that they are employees and we all know that's impossible ;)
The results could be horrible, but can imagine a simple technique for hiding all those clues. Just send the text to google translate, translate it to an intermediate language and the back to the original one. I can…
Sorry for killing the hype, but I hope this is not going to read in a few years as «6-Month-Old Babies are now using the TV», a clear example of parents negligence, with study upon study showing the negative effects of…
I usually read more than book at once. «Ready Player One», Ernest Cline -- Because all my friends read it and I've to. «What is to go to war», Karl Marlantes -- After learning about it in a podcast, very interesting.…
Ciudadanos (aka Ciutadans) it's not «new», it's 10 years old. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citizens_(Spanish_political_pa...
The «Podemos» movement is losing steam. Other political parties are still worried about them, but the breach they created in the bipartisan politics in Spain has been occupied quickly by other new (yet, more standard)…
I would like to give some context. As a Spaniard I don't know what this article talks about. I didn't know about Quitter.es and I consider myself someone informed. Even more, the Twitter user that originated the…
Going philosophical (and I do this a lot), it's really about exploration of the solutions space. I think the whole profession has moved a step forward and we need metaphors, tools and architectures for systems where one…
I loved Haskell, seriously! The year was 1997 and my uni professor was contributing to Hugs (do you remember it?). But, while I was working my way through Monads and stuff other people were running circles around me in…
