Il futuro delle WLANs?


It's more complicated than that!
Oggi si festeggiano i cent’anni dal primo volo a motore dei fratelli Wright. Il giornale locale allora diede la notizia più o meno in questo modo: “Due nostri concittadini emulano Santos Dumont”
In Brasile te la menano a morte sul fatto che quel volo di cent’anni fa non è mai correttamente decollato, dato che il Flyer veniva lanciato su rotaie da una specie di ottovolante-catapulta.
Il primo decollo vero lo fece Dumont, nel 1906: volò soltanto sette metri ma riuscì a schiantarsi a terra e distruggere il mezzo. Dumont procedette quindi a inventare il primo simulatore di volo, per impratichirsi senza farsi male.

Ho appena finito di vedere questo film, che “Kill Bill” a confronto è una merdaccia.

Quando c’è comunità, i trolls hanno vita dura:
The other day, in #joiito, a pretty hardcore troll dropped into the channel. The funny thing was, everyone was like, “weeee a real live troll, lets play with the troll!” The troll was sufficiently outnumbered by our band of merry IRCers and I think the troll figured out that at the end, the joke was on her. It’s nice when you have a community that can deal with trolls at a meta level and even have fun with it.
WSJ (a pagamento): “In one of the largest moves to “offshore” highly paid U.S. software jobs, International Business Machines Corp. has told its managers to plan on moving the work of as many as 4,730 programmers to India, China and elsewhere…
…Unlike low-wage manufacturing, the U.S. computer-services jobs to be moved overseas by IBM typically pay $75,000 to $100,000 or more a year, according to one person familiar with the operations. In contrast, hiring a software engineer with a bachelors or even a masters degree from a top technical university in India may cost $10,000 to $20,000 annually, analysts say.”
