I didn’t find the reference but it seems that Plutarch once wrote that the main difference between boys and men is the deep desolation a man feels immediately after an ecstasy moment. I’m not a boy anymore since ages and being aware of it doesn’t help anyhow.

Happy Country’s Birthday to all my friends there. :)
Il sito di Repubblica di ieri ci informava così:
17:47 Calderoli: “Tagliare, tagliare, tagliare”
“Tagliare, tagliare, tagliare”: questa la sintesi di Roberto Calderoli, ministro della Semplificazione, sul suo programma.
“Taglieremo costi inutili, persone inutili, leggi inutili”. ha aggiunto parlando con i giornalisti dopo il giuramento al Quirinale.
Appena letta questa dichiarazione, mi è venuta in mente la mia frase preferita di Larry Wall:
Always always avoid redundancy

The Samsung SyncMaster 245B is a 24” TFT monitor that works at 1900×1200. I’ve waited the release of Hardy to try it (my test was done with a video card recognized by lspci as ATI RV516 Radeon X1300/X1550 Pro). Surprisingly, Hardy choosed the correct resolution at the first attempt! How simpler in comparison to an older Kubuntu!
Listening “Clothes of sand” once again, I started to think about its sentence
Given you meaning but taken my place
How many times I bartered my own nature for knowledge? I don’t see myself and I won’t anymore.
Clothes of sand have covered your face
This release fetches the DilbertDailyStrip RSS feed (and it uses SimpleXML and CURL).

The TPCI May Headline is
PowerShell on its way to the top 20
As you know, I don’t code on Windows regularly :) but after a quick look at this sample screenshot, PowerShell seems to me very… powerful. :) Perhaps a good part of its power resides on its blendable, UNIX-like nature. :)
