- It looks that by contract I have to write this blog
from Paolo's home :D
- The image aside is the Sidhe's private "vision of me" :D
-
After a pizza, we have improvised a small hacknight over the net.
Noldor, Giada and Sidhe are watching at us through a web-cam: strange
sensation :D
- Paolo would like to write a proggie for video multi conference...
yep, that would be a killer app.. but it would require a lot of
time and efforts (we'd need a sponsor :D ).
- Noldor and Grifisx are doing a great job on KVIrc. That's
just great: the project benefits a lot and it is also fun to watch
them learning and improving so fast.
- Iakko seems to be disappeared recently...
- Before coming to Paolo's come I have been at the Virus Studio.
Alessandro was really angry with the ArteNativa sticker producers.
They have printed nearly one thousand completly misaligned
Marla Singer stickers. Yet worse: besides the fact that the laser printer
cardrige was probably running out of ink (so half of the stickers
are gray instead of black), they also haven't cut the stickers
at all and have sent the whole giant sheet wrapped in a container
1.5 meters long :D
- This is a deja-vu. I have already lived such a period
two or three years ago. At that time Marco called it "vaquity".

The police of San Casciano in val di Pesa has sent me an advice
about a fine they did me some moths ago (I was going a bit too fast with
my car when travelling from Siena to Florence...).
They want me to pay again because the first time I have paid
one day after the timeline (which was on a Sunday and thus I have
paid on Monday). They're fucking bastards: trying to gather
money to re-build their offices. I hope in a natural catastrophe.

For a single Siena is one of the worst cities ever. Really... it's just
horrible: all you can do on Saturday Night is to go to a pub and get fucking drunk:
that's the most exciting thing you can do.
In the 2 bars with music there is an average woman/man ratio of 1/8, and if I dare to
do a selection of girls that can be even a bit acttractive to me, the ratio drops
to something like 1/80... and I don't pretend heavens.. believe me. There can be
no competition, for me, atm. I'd better get fucking drunk and go to sleep.
-
Christopher has been operated... I'm sad about that.
-
I haven't been so nervous since years now...
and tomorrow it's going to be worse: it's sunday and I have a hell
of work to do.
-
What a horrible day...
05.04.2005
- The situation seems to stabilize a bit, finally... or at least
I don't feel it so heavy. Let's hope that it is a start of a trend :)
- Yesterday I had a really hard working day. Moved to TDGroup in Pisa
to work on the first release of the Sirio Valanghe controlling software.
Worked until late evening with Patrizio and the other guy (that I can't remember
the name for.. what a shame...) and then again back to Siena.
Slept a couple of hours and woken up to make the last commit (the ultimate deadline
for siriov release was today). Finally went to sleep at nearly 5 am, having
to wake up in 3 hours...
- Today woken up at 8.30 and ran to DIESSE (looking really like a zombie).
Silvana Verdiani had some problems and failed to reach DIESSE in time.
Scheduled a new meeting on Thursday morning.
-
Actually I'm writing from Paolo's home. We're working on the new
SLUG's server machine.
The server is in fact an User Mode Linux provided by bytemark
and it seems to behave really well. There is already a cvs server running,
a named, postfix and a nice apache installation.

- Yet more Teoria Dei Sistemi Discreti. The last part is really difficult..
I'm not totally sure if asking to try the verbal exam was a good choice, but
at this point I'll try with all my forces to do it well :)
- This morning I had an appointment to discuss a possible job.
The task is really nice and interesting: it involves hard image processing,
contour tracing and neural nets. The problem that the task is *really*
huge; so huge that I can't afford to take it all on my shoulders: I just don't
have all that time. The other problem is that someone else was already
inquired for a solution and it is not clear if "he" will do the job or not.
We'll see. I have learned one thing, tough: I have to value myself really more.
- Once I asked a phone number of a girl to a "friend"... but he
prolly was the wrong person to ask. Today I've seen them both having
a nice trip around the city. He was REALLY the wrong person :D
-
Which File Extension are You?
17.12.2004
- Yet another foggy and rainy day. You can cut the fog with a knife here :D
- Had a short trip to the Univ and subscribed myself to the TDSD exam.
By the way I have found Iakko and Vincenzo that are trying to set up an OpenMosix cluster.
ATM they are having problems with a couple of SiS network cards that refuse to boot via ethernet.
I promised myself that after the exam I will join them for a while to see how the cluster develops :)
- Again studying Teoria Dei Sistemi Discreti. Markov Chains on the way :)
want more ?
... really ? :D
Browse around then.
