Ci sono una nuova generazione di “nullasapienti”, persone che con una inutile laurea (tipicamente in legge) diventano giornalisti dilettanti, seguono i trend della “blogosfera” e leggono magari qualche bel libro di comunicazione.
Il risultato è che pubblicano video che non sono scontati, non sono banali ma non sono neppure perle di saggezza. Sono ovvi. La cosa diventa meno bella se mettendoci la loro faccia, vogliono pure dei soldi da voi.

Arduino is a great hardware for a lot of reason: easy to use, difficulto to break, it is a very solid 5-Volt board.
But it a way too much and it has a very limited amount of RAM. So I started exploring other more “different” solutions. I need an economy chip with some RAM on it. After some research, I stumpled upon a lot of so-called Arduino alternative…

Vjdbc is a remote access for JDBC-Datasources developed more then ten years ago (last news are from 2007, with last comit from 2013.

In Excel you can easily fill in a column with a list of values. Some times also in Emacs you my need to write down a bunch of similar code. The dotimes function with the “elsp eval” M-x : (Esc + : on windooze) will solve your trouble easily. Try out this code on scratch buffer:

I have used with profit and fun NilRTOS, and I strongly suggest to you this new variant.
A preemptive multi tasking RTOS in a 2KB 1-MIPS, 8 bit microcontroller remember be the ugly time when a MS-Windows 3.x with 1 MB of RAM was an inferior operative system no-preemptive at all, but with nice software like Excel and Access

Nel 2011, per studiare node js creai un progetto chiamato OrgModeParser.
Org Mode è un package per l’editor Emacs, ed è pensato per tenere note strutturate, pianificare progetti con una schedulazione, mantenere una lista di cose da fare e generare poi documenti word o html da tali file in modo piuttosto efficace.
