Last sunday I upgraded my website software… phew!, It was a long task, but final result was very pleasant :-). Right now it’s running on WordPress 1.5. Very nice. One major change was the use of subdomains instead of subdirectories. I pretend to keep all blogs cleaner by putting each one in its own subdomain space. The price is some broken links on the net ;-)…
This tree is in my garden… yummi, yummi
Two months ago I designed this logo for an internal company product contest. I didn’t win, but I learned a lot. Xara made the work very simple, and well… hope you like it as much as I do…

Three weeks ago I had to work on polyominoes for a final project. Since I had to program an enumeration quickly, I wanted to find a simple algorithm to do it. Well, my search was hard. I barely found information on enumeration algorithms and read the work of many people including Redelmeier, Knuth and Ares Ribó. I chose to go the Redelmeier way because of the short time to complete the task.
Ok, first time was fun, but now I hate it… I have deleted about 1000 spam comments in about a week… suggestions accepted…

Finally, after six months it was so heavy. This is my garden covered by hail.
How to change the screen resolution of Solaris 10 running in vmware First you must install the vmware tools on your virtual machine. Edit your xorg.conf file: vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf Under the section “Monitor” put a number sign (#) in front of all those screen resolutions you don’t want. Save your file, log off and log on again.
Photoshop is one of those so popular applications often missed in the Linux world. Ok, ok, the GIMP is there, but you have to learn to use it. Even moving a simple selection around becomes a hard to accomplish task. This makes me think, about all that people who has spent so many hours learning Photoshop. The solution: programming an interface very similar to Photoshop. And I mean, get the same keyboard shortcuts, menus, get an MDI interface, arrange tools in a similar way, etc.
