Dumb software version control systems

This is a short post, I just need to express my anger:
I REALLY HATE Clearcase
Oh, and while I’m at it:
Subversion sucks too!

Google Gadgets for Linux

Google Open Source has released info about it’s gadgets application for Linux yesterday.
Even though I’m not too fond of polluting my desktop with irrelevant info, I must recognize that most people love eye-candy, so it’s a must-consider target when planning a mass-user application.
Regardless, what pleased me was reading here the following:

Google App Engine trial

In the beginning of May my application to try out Google’s App Engine was accepted and since then I’ve been reading about it whenever I can spare the time, but never really got into coding for it.

Programação, gambiarra e kernel

Bom, após trabalhar na geração de uma mini-distribuição Linux adequada para sistemas embarcados rodando o RTAI, com tudo bonitinho, ambiente de desenvolvimento documentado e scripts for-dummies para realizar diversas tarefas, parti para portar uma aplicação embarcada para rodar no novo Kernel (2.6.x).
Se fosse só isso eu estaria muito feliz, mas se fosse legal não seria [...]
