Bad Logins

I hate when a Website is badly programmed. Today I tried to submit a story to a portuguese digg alike called “domelhor.net“. I misspelled my password and had to rewrite it. It was my typo, no problem. Then I wrote the story I wanted to submit, but when I pressed the Submit Button it said “Chave Errada” – “Wrong Password”. Hm? WTF? Wrong password? This made me forget the story and probably the site.

Is Technology really useful?

Sometimes a person has to stop driving and check the car’s engine. It’s a must. In tech world the same thing is true. We can’t always be in a rush to get to somewhere. The dot com boom proved this as many of those rocket companies ended up with a bang. Sometimes it is better to reevaluate what we are doing. Probably we should impose ourselves a schedule for that. Say every six months? And at certain times we can eve think on the need of all this. Is technology really necessary? Couldn’t we be happy living in caves, eating berries that we could recollect and hunting big Mammoths?

Hm… Naah!… Back to the Real World David. Tech is great!

SSD memory just around the corner

A tiny memory chip will become the main storage device incorporated into notebook computers beginning this year in place of conventional, bulky hard disc drives. Samsung Electronics, the world’s largest maker of memory chips, Tuesday unveiled such a scheme at the Samsung Mobile Solution Forum at Taipei. During the third annual event, the firm demonstrated the world’s first 32 gigabyte NAND flash-based solid state drive (SDD) that will replace hard disc drives.

Samsung is just on the verge of a revolution! The new SSD devices offer 32GB of pure fun for computers. This devices will replace in some near future the hard drive component. Besides being faster in Read an Write operations, the SSD also doesn’t have any moving mechanical parts, witch is one of the traditional Hard Drive handicaps. For now, the price tag is still to high, but it will drop as technology gets wide acceptance. I hope to see this kind of tech soon.

Problemas do Blogger são Constantes

Mantive durante muito tempo alguns blogs no serviço do Blogger. Por um lado, o blogger foi durante muito tempo uma ferramenta que funcionava bem. A verdade é que ultimamente o downtime é cada vez maior. Ou eles não querem investir nos equipamentos que alimentam o serviço, ou … ou então é mesmo só azelhice. Assim, e como sou fã do WordPress desde o tempo do 1.x decidi vir aqui experimentar este bom comanheiro. Mudar o sixhat para aqui? Ainda não sei. Para já este é o sixhat private parts, onde poderei opinar sobre o que se for passando nos projectos onde vou andando. O podcast vai continuar no blogger, mas certamente terei planos para este serviço…
