    pyparsing review

    This is the sad true: parsing is boring. And writing parser is even worst.

    Erlang Book Review

    After reading an interesting article on Erlang  and Java interoperability, I have decided to dedicate my spare time to Erlang.

    O’Reilly has just published a wonderful book on Erlang, so I decided to dive into it.

    Clojure Review

    Book review by Stefano Fago: This book introduce one of most interesting  language of new wave of functional programming. You will find a complete overview of clojure language focusing in functional paradigm that can be the real obstacle for a standard developer. The author try to follow you on learning different subject with a lot of examples but sometimes it need more reflection and time to master some arguments and a syntax that may seems obscure. The book is a good starting point to introduce you to a new way of programming but also to learn some particulars aspect of Java. To consider a complete but not easy reading. However a book to have!

    Vista la crescente discesa dei prezzi degli ebook, ho voluto provare ad acquistare anche io uno di questi lettori, e la mia scelta è caduta sul Kindle Touch, che Amazon Italia vende a 130€ circa, spese di spedizione escluse. Uno dei maggiori freni alla diffusione degli ebook al momento è la estrema incompatibilità che c’è tra i vari formati, che di fatto impedisce all’utente finale di acquistare i libri su più siti di e-commerce.

    Ma piuttosto che addentrarmi nell’argomento e-book (di per sé molto complesso da trattare) farò di seguito una più modesta recensione dell’e-reader più famoso: Amazon Kindle Touch, appunto.

    It is already history, and you can read my review there.

    But if you like to try it yourself, you can order the C/64 Replica below. PS: if you wait some time, I predict it will ha a sale price of 40% of more, in a couple of months…versus the current 104€ retail price.

  • Why BG3 is a success: Divinity: Original Sin II versus CyberPunk2077

    I am playing to Divinity: Original Sin II  (D:OS2) which is the game done before Baldur’s Gate 3 (BG3) by Larian Studios

    BG3 is a success despite its launch was anticipated in August to avoid head-to-head competition Starfield. If we compare the success of  BG3 with CyberPunk2077 launch failure, I think we can learn something about software developing PLANNING.

    Divinity games are a tactical game with a lot of freedom, you can take things, combine them, and solve quests with different approaches (brute forces, talks with different paths,  etc). For instance you can try to open a door with a key, with a burglar kit, or bashing it until it is destroyed (more long but feasible).

    E per fortuna che erano testa a testa… Trump ha asfaltato i democratici in ogni stato, e probabilmente prenderà il controllo di entrambi i rami del parlamento.
