Tempo di vacanze? Ecco la mappa dei Paesi visitabili con la sola Carta di Identità (un paio potrebbero richiedere qualche pratica extra ma l’elenco è questo).
La lista l’ho ottenuta attraverso diverse pagine di Wikipedia, mentre per disegnarla, ho usato la libreria Geochart dei Google Chart Tools.
Il codice JavaScript, con l’elenco ordinato dei Paesi, l’ho lasciato su gist.
La mia esperienza in Rientrodolce si è conclusa e queste note, con grande incoerenza, sono state abbozzate viaggiando verso due capitali: la prima in aereo e la seconda in treno.
L’analisi sulla civiltà che il primitivismo sviluppa è convincente, quantomeno nei suoi sommi capi sulla domesticazione, la violenza funzionale, l’imperialismo e l’impossibilità della sua riforma. Quel che manca è:
No one is like you…
As stated on their website, C25K is
a fantastic program that’s been designed to get just about anyone from the couch to running 5 kilometers or 30 minutes in just 9 weeks.
I completed it in 6 weeks and 3 days but I was not a true potato couch, though. :)
I don’t have a stepcounter so I used a watch with chronometer function: doing the math, unfortunately I can’t say I run yet… I still jog (moving slower than 10 Km/h).
This is the compact version of their table I used during my training (the numbers are for the minutes).
F = Fast walking; R = running (or jogging); W = walk
| 1st workout | 2nd workout | 3rd workout |
|---|---|---|
| 5F + 4 * (1R + 1.5W) | same | same |
| 5F + 6 * (1.5R + 2W) | same | same |
| 5F + 2 * (1.5R + 1.5W + 3R + 3W) | same | same |
| 5F + 3R + 1.5W + 5R + 2.5W + 3R + 1.5W + 5R | same | same |
| 5F + 5R + 3W + 5R + 3W + 5R | 5F + 8R + 5W + 8R | 5F + 20R |
| 5F + 5R + 3W + 8R + 3W + 5R | 5F + 10R + 3W + 10R | 5F + 25R |
| 5F + 25R | same | same |
| 8.5F + 28R | same | same |
| 5F + 30R | same | same |
This post contains a few pictures of Brussels and Leuven… though the whole thing was nearer to nine days than a week. :)
Brussels
Buildings in the Grand Béguinage of Leuven
The Town Hall of Leuven
Group portrait… I was late so you can find me in the red circle :)
The slides of my presentation at AWEC2011 (Airborne Wind Energy Conference 2011) are now available. I’m going to put a few pictures of Leuven and Bruxelles in the next post.
I’m not an expert but it seems to me that the different methods to encode as Base64 a *binary* stream exposed by Apache Commons don’t chunk for binary inputs or don’t chunk at all, in spite of what their documentation states.
So let me write here a little snippet, which uses guava-libraries, for an already getBytes()-ed string.
private static String b64eChunk(String mstring) {
String encodedText = Base64.encodeBase64String(mstring.getBytes());
String myOutput = "";
for (String substring : Splitter.fixedLength(76).split(encodedText)) {
myOutput += substring + "\n";
}
return myOutput.substring(0, myOutput.length() - 1);
}
Credits for the guava part: Cowan.
I like nightfall running and, while the darkness lets me breathe better, it also helps me not to look so clumsy. :)
There is not a VirtualBox image of Debian GNU/Linux 6 on VirtualBoxes: I’ve created a new minimal version starting from debian-6.0.0-i386-netinst.iso. This is the sequence of choices of the installation procedure (almost defaults).

While waiting for the official link on VirtualBoxes, you can download it here (~ 295 MB).
Era il tricolore più grande disponibile su eBay, poco meno di cinque metri quadri. :)
