This seems promising. It’s also a lot like the system we are using
to develop Zurara, Quill and Oraculo.



Damn Squirrels

I stumbled across this old quote today and I thought to myself:
This has never been so true. Me and href="http://blog.portugalmail.pt/K">Sergio usually referer to
users as ’squirrels with a keyboard’.

“Programming today is a race between software engineers
striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the
Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the
Universe is winning.”
– Rich Cook

Damn squirrels!



A new API for sequences of photos

Winer: A new API for sequences of photos? Some nice API’s or
API’s specifications have been released in the last few days. One
more thing to implement in href="http://blog.portugalmail.pt/K/archive/002065.html#002065">Zurara
and Quill. By the way we must write a post about what the hell are
Zurara, Quill and Oraculo (*hint*).

Individual photos are too small a unit these days. When
I take a trip I end up with a folder of photos on my local
computer. When I’ve figured out which ones form a sequence, I want
to run a script, have them go up on the server, and then be able to
have a news item already created that includes all the
pictures.

Slashdot | Gentoo Games: After href="http://www.gentoo.org/news/20020916-ut2k3.xml">releasing
the Unreal Tournament Bootable CD some time ago, Gentoo announced
the creation of Gentoo
Games
. The first game to be released (and already as) is
‘America’s Army’.

At least some nice news for a change:

Today, we announce the creation of Gentoo Games, Inc.,
a gaming technology company created to deliver innovative
Linux-based game technologies to the public. To kick off this new
initiative, we are also announcing a full version of the very
popular (Linux exclusive) America’s Army military combat simulation
on a self-booting Gentoo GameCD.
