DogKitten: Burocracia Emocionante...
http://dogkitten.blogspot.com/2011/04/burocracia-emocionante.html
Marching to the beat of a fractal drummer. Thursday, April 14, 2011. Un día lleno de aventuras en la frontera - tenía que salir de Nicaragua porque la visa de la camioneta vencía hoy. Muchos extranjeros que viven aquí se dan esa vuelta cada 90 días por la visa personal, o cada 30 por la visa del automóvil. A los aduaneros les carga la movida; la llaman la vuelta del perro. Casi perdí la camioneta debido a este problema con el sistema Tico, que al parecer borró mi ultima salida de Costa Rica a Nicaragua -...

Wednesday, April 27, 2011. It's been a while. And promptly broke two of the three badly. If you want a viable alternative to OpenOffice now that the Lord of the Sith. Has taken over the original offering, try LibreOffice. It's not as if new bugs aren't being delivered by the bushel - it's just that life got in the way. How annoying. All the same, it's time to hit the code again. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Subscribe To Bug du Jour. Its been a while. View my complete profile. Fast Free DNS Listing.

Bug du Jour: September 2013
http://bugdujour.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 24, 2013. Uh, excuse me, Facebook. Mark it zero. Next frame. Thursday, September 5, 2013. Oh, Facebook; you're so smart! The machines are getting smarter. It would be a source of comfort to say these guys don't know what they're doing, or to point out that their somewhat unflattering raft of interface problems. Stemming from beleaguered continuous integration back in 2011 clearly indicate this sort of thing is just a technical malfunction. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Friday, May 31, 2013. On Apathy, Voting, and Scalability. Though I have mostly focused on web portal bugs here, this has led to a sort of apathy for a number of reasons. What's wrong with this picture? So here's some random video with 5,348 likes and 15 dislikes after 1,448 total views. There you go: Bug du Jour. I'm sure it was fixed in no-time, and I bet it's related to scalability. Here's why:. Log(row count) / log(index block length / 3 * 2 / (index length data pointer length) 1. Since block-lengths ...

Bug du Jour: January 2011

Saturday, January 29, 2011. Sloppy Stuff for Millions to See. Having worked at Yahoo, discretion prevents me from sharing any real insight here, but I do think that the repeated release of shared-services code that hangs, works tragically slowly, and is basically pushed through in big sloppy rushes to release the next big "me-too" product ultimately hurts Yahoo more than being 10 weeks late to market instead of 20 helps it. Here is a classic and all too frequent example:. Thursday, January 27, 2011.

DogKitten: November 2010
http://dogkitten.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Marching to the beat of a fractal drummer. Monday, November 22, 2010. Way Out of Line". Apparently, last week Jon Stewart complained on air that calling George Bush a War Criminal was technically correct but politically incorrect. He called it "way out of line", charging that it's "a conversation-stopper, not a conversation-starter". Against Bush Sr. and his cabinet in 1991. It is a good summary of what that administration gave the world. The story of Americans torturing and murdering civilians all over ...

DogKitten: The Acorn Doesn't Fall Far From the Tree
http://dogkitten.blogspot.com/2011/01/moveable-type-chasers.html
Marching to the beat of a fractal drummer. Sunday, January 16, 2011. The Acorn Doesn't Fall Far From the Tree. Until the 15th century, the concept of authors' rights was basically non-existent. If you came up with a great oral poem, and it was repeated, your stock could only go up. Books were a painstaking labor. And each one owed much of its value to the very act of its construction. In the 1490's Guttenberg. S campaign against the rising popularity of cassette tapes: "Home-Taping is Killing Music".
