The black hole…
...my black hole...
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, […]
And I get to the end of the second season. As I said when writing about the first season, the episodes start to be quite similar ones to the others. For this season, I liked more the episode on Tesla Model S, because being electric it is completely different from the other cars. Also, the […]
Usually I do not advertise on this blog. In fact, this is not properly advertisement, but a review. But given I am happy with the product, yeah, it can be seen as advertisement. I will talk about BaseQi, the Ninja Stealth Drive. Basically, it allows you to pop-in a MicroSD card into your MacBook keeping […]
I always had a thing for red heads. But Rachelle Lefevre is gorgeous. Nice hair, gentle eyes, beautiful face lines. But no, that is not the reason I am watching this show. And I confess I watched it faster than I thought. So, why am I watching it? It is different from others. It is […]
And they talk about Game of Thrones, and all dead… oops, sorry. Spoilers ahead, in the next paragraph. So, if you never saw Hannibal, think on it. I know it is sometimes a problem for digestion. But it is worth it. My main complain is that sometimes it gets hard to follow. Sometimes explanations are […]
I know I should not watch more series. But I was tempted. Just by the name. Yeah. Under the Dome. A lot it can mean. Well, watched the pilot episode just for the kicks, and try to understand how cool it could get. At first it was mostly confused, and it seems it continues that […]
This is that kind of series that go in a crescendo. At the beginning it was kind of slow, with an episode-based story, mostly on S.H.I.E.L.D. (God, that is tiresome to write) agents working. Then a bigger story is formed, curiously, joining some of the different stories that were told before. At the end, a […]
It is strange, but yeah, recently I’ve been watching this series. Good part, small episodes, about cars, with lots of robots that I like. Bad part, a lot of repetition at some point, given most cars are made in the same way. No surprise there. Anyway, it is a good series to understand the price […]
