In memory of David Carradine, what would Master Po say?

Pietro — Fri, 05 Jun 2009 21:26:59 +0000

I wonder how Caine would have commented David Carradine‘s death. Especially the modus operandi.

-What’s the matter, Grasshopper?

-Master Po, the story teller from the village just died.

Moving to Dublin

Pietro — Wed, 11 Jul 2007 23:33:21 +0000

I know I haven’t written anything in ages. And maybe it is a good thing. Part of it is due to the fact that this blog has become so serious, so high level, that I felt I did not have anything worth enough to write on it. On the side my other small blog, the [...] No related posts.

Fixing the website

Pietro — Fri, 01 Sep 2006 17:11:05 +0000

I just came back from the vacations to discover that my website is now a mess.

All the delicious mindmap data have been deleted, and so did the MySQL data of the wiki.

I am not really sure how it could happen, but I am just not going to investigate. I am, more pragmatically, moving [...] No related posts.

The new project: TagBay. Tagging e-Bay

Pietro — Fri, 24 Mar 2006 16:18:37 +0000

It is now the time to present the next project we have been working to: TagBay. And I say ‘we’, because is this project I am not alone. I did it with a friend of mine, Derek, who accepted, very patiently to code, some of the idea I have been tinkering around in the last [...] Related posts:

No more Ivory Towers I am right now at the FET 11 conference. There I was attending a session from my old friend Josh Bongard on Crowdsourcing Science .

My reading list

Pietro — Thu, 02 Jun 2005 23:59:37 +0000

Some of you know that I left ProtoLife. I hope in the future to keep on colaborating with the P.A.C.E. project, but for now that’s it. I want to go back to Germany, and finish my Ph.D. . Somehow this seem to have a higher priority. Beside is getting clearer for me each day that [...] Related posts:

My Calendar

Pietro — Tue, 10 May 2005 22:51:07 +0000

This evening I played with calendars. In particular with the calendar published by Mozilla. SunBird. It is pretty amazing. Also here they managed to install an open standard with which anybody can write his own calendar. The program let you then save it into a file or publish it on the web. You can also [...] No related posts.

Back to Windows

Pietro — Thu, 03 Feb 2005 16:34:28 +0000

Since my Windows crashed, and I am now running on an old linux Suse 8.0, on a small partition, I was looking forward to reinstall linux as the only OS, with a newer version: Suse 9.2.

After a day of work, the system administrator of the company I work for was not able to install [...] No related posts.

Short comunication

Pietro — Fri, 28 Jan 2005 13:13:29 +0000

I feel the duty to make a short comunication.

My windows system finally crashed under the weight of virus, worms, and similar. I had to recover under linux, but for some weeks I will be unable to have an OS of any kind working properly and completely. Eventually I will install a Suse 9.2. For [...] Related posts:

My new phone, my new Moblog

Pietro — Mon, 20 Dec 2004 17:46:01 +0000

I finally did it. I bought myself a new phone (nokia 6670). Or shoudl I say a smatphone. Infact you should not think of this as a phone at all, but rather as a computer. A small wearable, easy to connect to the internet in any time, computer. Who happens to be of the same [...] No related posts.
