Slowly preparing to migrate from Posterous to my own blog. Well I can always leave Posterous as one of the ways of updating my blog, but I realised I still want my own design, my own file storage, and decent blogging clients support. Yes, ecto rocks :-)
OH during the component-based software development lecture

Lector:
— I am personally not convinced with EJB-QL approach and I don’t see why you should be unless you love to embed SQL into your code, then surely you can say “Yay! I love it” — otherwise, as I said, I am not convinced.
Start-up airline Virgin America has decided HTML is “good enough” for animating online content on its brand-new website, which went live Monday, dumping Flash.
I would only say I am not surprised at all by this step — given amount of pressure Apple has pressed on Flash-based content (and obvious progress of JavaScript support in [...]
British Piracy Bill May Kill Most Small Public Wi-Fi Connections

The new Digital Economy Bill, a piece of copyright crackdown legislation, would hold owners of open Wi-Fi connections in Britain liable for any form of copyright infringement conducted on their networks. There would be zero exceptions for individuals, businesses, public locations, libraries, universities, or small businesses.That could essentially kill the popular open Wi-Fi [...]
Digital Image Processing, Playboy and The Most Famous Image in Computer Science

Have you ever seen this girl? Odds are — if you’ve ever dealt with image processing as a computer science discipline, then you had — in fact, many times.
You can probably pick any book on the subject and you’ll find this picture — perhaps, significantly more than once. I found myself interested [...]
I have my iPhone officially unlocked by O2. However, today I had to unlock it unofficially too — naturally, using blackra1n + blacksn0w combination (I’ve donated for blackra1n once, and now I feel like I need to donate for using blacksn0w — it was my most painless jailbreak and unlock ever). You can ask, why [...]
Developing using Eclipse CDT, remote Linux server and rsync

For quite a while I used to have a huge pain in my arse — namely, programming in C++ for Linux on my Mac.
I think I said this before, but I like IDEs — especially, I like Eclipse: it saves my time and allows me to develop stuff much faster and more efficiently, it is [...]
That said, one can do almost anything as long as this anything is not writing a lecture (which that specific one should be doing — at least, theoretically).
Now, I’m not different in any sense. Instead of writing an Image-Based Information Processing lecture (which puts me to sleep almost immediately — or is it the [...]

Chrome Dictionary — very useful extension, at least for me

OK, fine, I know — an average Englishman is fairly unlikely to need a dictionary when reading in his very own native English; an educated Englishman will hardly need dictionary ever. However, for us, foreigners, expats, or simply people who struggle (to whatever degree) to speak and read the language of Shakespeare, Jane Austen and [...]
