Unfortunately, my change to the industrial world forced me to work with Windows, namely developing with C#. A few months ago, developing AI tools, That shift to Python allowed me to […]

MacOS Small Gems: #1 Unnatural Scroll Wheels

I’m back to using a Mac at work after almost four years on Windows. It’s a nice relief—though honestly, still not as good as running Linux. Anyway, while setting up the Mac, I stumbled on what I’m calling a bug (because it is one) in the mouse and touch-pad settings. Both panes in the Settings […]

High-Order Makefile

June 16, 2024June 17, 2024ambsLeave a Comment on High-Order Makefile

Yesterday I was trying to automate a process using a Makefile. At first, I was mostly using Bash inside the Makefile to iterate over a lot of files and perform operations. Unfortunately, that approach does not allow us to use multiple parallel jobs, taking advantage of the multi-processor available in the machine. I decided to […]

Linux, 2017!

July 23, 2017ambsLeave a Comment on Linux, 2017!

First of all, please do not read this post as a complain. Just as an analysis. I am a Linux user for decades. I remember using Linux in my first year of University, somewhere about 1996. I never stopped using Linux, in the server, but during some years, somewhere between 2002 and 2017 I was […]

MonoGame: From Windows to Linux

March 26, 2017March 27, 2017ambsLeave a Comment on MonoGame: From Windows to Linux

With the last version (3.6), the MonoGame OpenGL template for a cross platform game includes references to the libraries in the three main formats: DLL for windows, DyLib for mac, and so for […]

Euclidea is a very interesting game. Something new, a different game, educational, fun, difficult, challenging. A great game. If you like geometry, if you loved how to build geometric constructions on paper, but always made them blur, you will love this game.

After the last Apple keynote, the news on Mac Book Pro, and the exorbitant price, I took part of this Sunday to look back to Linux as a Desktop. Although I work usually on a 2011 Mac, that runs perfectly (just some bumps), I have a Lenovo laptop. So, I decided to install the Linux […]

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, […]
