“…Deanna Phillips, an OpenBSD developer, recently started a BSD Women LinkedIn group… The group is also open to men in the BSD community who would like to show their support for women who hack BSD. …”

“HAPPY TIMES

NOT”, don’t know but lets see next chapter.

“… To those taking the time to blog about our architecture, I encourage you to check out our jobs page. If you want to make Twitter better, there’s no more direct way than getting involved in our engineering efforts. We love kicking around ideas, but code speaks louder than words…”

This is what I call a “Gran finale”

Q: Will you repeat all from the beginning?
A: YES, no doubts about that!

Some sounds I love to listen when I am running!

and also

lots of Drum N’ Base like: Jiboul, Saelynh, Dj Mush, Horion, Makatrage.
I like Trance too: Atomic Cat, Secret Side, Quantica, Paul Van Dyk, Senn, Nexus, Sirius Isness.See you next stop, 2000Km.
For non Nike+ addicted people, http://fanciscocabrita.runnerplus.com

I still the same person but now I dress some “as they call” “smart casual clothes” and yes I still love to remove those accounts haahah

Today I’m working with some legacy systems and I just remembered when I had my hands on systems like Irix, SCO and Netware…funny days and stressing too :/

Pois é meus caros, mais away não podia estar. Serve o presente post apenas para deixar um ping à lá “I am alive and kicking asses!”

Estas minhas últimas semanas tem sido bastante diferentes! O trabalho é bastante, a pilha de livros de coisas novas é gigante! Parece que querem matar o tipo do BSD com linuxes “do tempo da Maria Caxuxa” e com uma porrada de Solaris à mistura. (Yep, já estou a tratar de criar um plano diabólico para instalar massivamente BSD lá na coisa… eles nem notam! (kidding))

Bem, a verdade é que esta nova experiência de estar “alugado” ao cliente do cliente, tem sido bastante interessante em alguns aspectos e menos noutros. Resta dizer por agora que adoro desafios, adoro quebrar barreiras, mas como tb sou um humanoide, preciso de momentos como este que estavam esquecidos. Um chocolate, um post e 300mil penduranços do Kanguru que me irrita mesmo ao ponto de meter nojo!(já tive perto de o mandar pela sanita abaixo mas não é meu !)

Para além disso devo anotar que para chegar ao office tenho de:

- manhã: descer dois andares e subir um,
- almoçar: subir um, e no fim voltar a descer,
- final do dia: descer um e subir dois.
(ainda falam que os geeks não batem bem! Deviam ver os arquitectos!)

A faculdade está bem mas tb mais exigente!

PS: O branco dos dentes foi editado no Gimp e aproveitei tapei os furos!
PS: As drogas teimam em não sair de casa!
PS: Para os “mouros” , pasta de chocolate é a mesma coisa que tablete de chocolate

Novos livros na pilha:

- Practical Ruby for Systems Administration, (dar em doido :S)
- The Ruby way, (muito bom mesmo)
- Elementos de Cálculo Financeiro (dass),
- Investigação Operacional (gasss-se),
- A very short introduction to Inteligence, (heheeh mesmo burro),
- 5 volumes de Solaris 10 (lindo!),
- (top secret books to conquer the world) (<- verdade)

Que mais coisas posso eu escrever neste posto puramente RAW ahumm, ah ok…
<RAW>Já tenho exame ao coração marcado para dia 26 deste mês; Hoje arrumei as coisas no frigorifico; Fui almoçar com um amigo que se anda a passar da cabeça; Esperei outra vez mais de 20 minutos para me darem acesso ao office (yha tenho root daquela m*rda toda e preciso de ser acompanhado à porta! dass); Não tenho sonhado de noite; Também não tenho comido maçãs durante o dia, alias no office não vejo a luz do dia;Tenho um artigo novo em mente sobre “Modelo Europeu de CV’s”; Tou perto dos 1K mas estou a recuperar do joelho direito; Vou começar em breve a ir de bike para o work; Estou a pensar em reduzir a ingestão de proteínas animais para 1/4; Vou tirar uma formação sobre Propriedade Intelectual; Vou aprender Solaris; bem… off</RAW>

Um post de jeito talvez para a próxima… sorry

Innotek which was recently acquired by Sun,  is looking for developers to help porting VirtualBox to FreeBSD. I’m not to much worried because I “abuse” of FreeBSD Jails and I have no need to virtualize any other operating system under any of my FreeBSD Box. (well, until now) But in fact I think is always a plus to have as many options as others have!

The community already has a simple port of it but that must be completed they say!
