«Producir y nutrir,
producir y no poseer,
obrar y no retener,
acrecentar y no regir,
son el misterio de la vida.»
Creatividad vs plagio
Díganme las diferencias que encuentran entre el vídeo de Oren Lavie «Her Morning Elegance»:
el anuncio de Telefónica (ADSL 6 Megas):
y el de Loterías y Apuestas del Estado del Estado (Si sueñas):
En serio, ¡díganmelas!
Y es que, re-citando a Jean Paul, «Se adquiere el derecho a copiar mucho de los otros cuando se tiene algo original que decir».
ChronoJump packaged for Fedora
If you follow this blog maybe you remember some previous comment about my friend Xavi de Blas' awarded project ChronoJump.
I'm a big fan of his work. I don't know a shit about sports tools or
software... neither about sports themselves. But I have seem along
years how his project was conceived, born as a Mono development, got mature and finally got worldwide recognized.
Today ChronoJump is not only
a software project but an holistic solution including the design,
building and distributing the hardware companion. Xavier has been able enough to fit his activity into his own academic research work.
So, you can imagine how amazing this project is. It can be seen as a
maybe modest but complete R&D initiative from the Academy direct to
the user. Impressive.
As a little homage I did today a first RPM packaging for Fedora Linux and related distributions. You can install it directly or by adding my RPM repository to your software installation management.
My involvement on ChronoJump will be near to zero but I plan to postulate this package to Fedora any time soon.
Go Xavi, Go!
Una clasificación de la ignorancia
Así, a vuela pluma:
- el ignorante socrático
- la duda como método: «sólo sé que no sé nada»
- el ignorante pasivo
- no sabe que no sabe; una caridad cristiana aplicable: «probretico»
- el ignorante militante
- no es que no sepa: es que no le da la gana saber.
Inquietud: ¿quién es el más ignorante?
Corolario: «imbécil, usa el diccionario».
