The black hole…
If you are an academic, you know what DOI are, and you know that a lot of websites are now requiring your publications to have one, so you can refer to them (for example, Publons). DOI are managed by IDF, the International DOI Foundation, a not-for-profit organization. In the other hand, I am a co-editor […]
Although I finished this season some weeks ago, I did not notice there were no more episodes. The fact of every episode having a different story, with minimal umbrella story (the one that glues episodes together), and the lack of a season finale are the reasons for missing it. In any case, Modern Family continues […]
Just another crappy movie. Fishing Naked has nothing, or almost nothing to do with fishing or naked. It is about Big Foot and this strange creature you can see above. The story is not interesting, the pace of the movie is too slow, and without any real interest. No idea why I downloaded it in […]
The Big Bang Theory continues to be fun, even with all the marriages. And I continue envying Raj… two cute girlfriends… I do not have much more to say this time. Waiting for Season 10!
I am not sure if I was just unlucky, or if LG is really selling crap hardware. Well, up to some point, yes, LG is really selling crap hardware. But it can’t be just that.. or is it? Well, the thing I know for sure, is that G4 Stylus stylus suck. It is not a […]
Usually I do not play much on my Android phone. But when waiting for someone or something, to have a good puzzle is worth it. Slitherlink, as you can look up in the Internet, is not an idea of this app author. It is a known puzzle, and if you look up in Google Play, […]
American Mary is a horror movie that could be tricky to watch if I didn’t had a degree on grotesque with Hannibal series. So, yeah, expect grotesque. More grotesque than blood, more grotesque than horror itself. I can’t say the movie is great. But as some good moments. For those, the 6 I gave at […]
Using the blog as a notepad, I will start posting here some notes on things I discover and are not very clear in the documentation (or I just did not find it at first). In the last times I have been hacking in eXist-db, and writing XQuery. I noticed a website with a lot of […]
Not much to say about the movie. A romantic comedy, and no, the romance was not between Robert De Niro and Anne Hathaway. It is a fund movie to watch. a few slow scenes, but mostly enjoyable to watch. Also was interesting to see Adam DeVine out of Modern Family, and Andrew Rannells out of […]
I am not sure how I agreed to write a chapter for a book to be published in IGI Global. Probably, being edited by a friend that invited me personally to send a proposal made the difference. I have my contribution ready, but starting to think on just forgetting it. Why? Because IGI Global is, […]
