The Halloween is coming ... and with it the ghosts of the typical Halloween
I would gladly have avoided the blogosphere to add yet another post about the wedding of Princess Victoria, but the Official site of the event Love 2010 made me change my mind.
In particular I refer to this page and the friendly game that is at the bottom of the page and carry to the end of that post.
The technology used is arose from a refreshing Microsoft Lab and allows the use of 3D reconstruction of complex scenes by simply putting together different photos, even with different angles of the same subject.
The name "commercial" is Photosynth and we can define the latest in the family "web 2.0". In fact, after the wiki, forums, blogs and microblogging, you can now actively contribute to the realization of collective photo. From a purely computer, the technology is interesting not only because it can have a 3D space in all of the photos but because he manages to remove the "noise" of photos added by simply realizing that, for example, a child running in front of the door of the basilica of San Marco in Venice is not part of the picture because 10 more photos not involving that child. All this without applying a filter "black list" (which would eliminate "all" children of every landscape) but by creating links between the pictures uploaded.
Because everything has led me to write a post? because I find it very nice to see technology that every day we strive to develop as they become tools for everyday life and I find it a bit 'Hippocratic oath for us IT.
The abbbiamo released May 15. No lock, no ID. You're crazy, they said. The steal. So what? They are made for cruising. Here is one, on May 22 in the parking Via Bellinzona complete with a padlock. A sign that the present owner keeps us ... Have you seen other around? And, tell, if you can, take a picture! Then mail to como@cittapossibilecomo.org with date and place, or make a comment here . Happy hunting! You were not made to live like brutes but to
follow virtue and knowledge
So recite the most famous triplets of Canto XXVI of Dante's Inferno. Words, spoken by quell'Ulisse which, driven by the thirst for knowledge that drove him to leave after a short quell'Itaca so much I suffer.
"following canoscenza" can have several meanings. My personal meaning is the knowledge of the world through direct experience, as much as possible. E 'as the best experience if not a long trip as exciting?
With the excuse of finishing the removal of items left in Naples two years ago, my father and I have organized a small adventure that meant that we become accused of madness by the whole family. What? A small travel Naples - Stockholm by car. Here's the plan travel.
As expected, many were the reactions of friends. Those who like to drive were to say the least envious of the trip, the other, those who consider the machine a mere means of transport, crazy. Personally I feel proud
small businesses. Travelling by car across Europe has an indescribable charm. Savor the small changes kilometer after kilometer was a great feeling, much more beautiful than the cut given by the flight. Let's say that I felt close to 2700 km to those noble scions of the nineteenth century who spent a couple of years traveling the Old Continent.
Here I am with my father's arrival home. In the background you can understand how the machine was full.
campaign Biciamo 2010 in these two months, has seen the growth and proliferation initiatives, thanks to a group of very active and enthusiastic. In summary: I'm the first .25 and I'm here to post on the blog. I should be in bed for a while 'because tomorrow the alarm will inexorably to 6.30 (and I surely will ignore up to 7.30).
But I really do not want to go to sleep ... or rather, the problem is not sleep, but locking myself in the dark room by myself knowing that I did not go to sleep immediately. Not that I fear the black man.
fact is, if the 'black man' is that almost masochistic mechanism that pushes us to examine our lives and ourselves.
is a bit 'I did not want to meet black man, and for this I have to keep playing at the PC, to wander the web, watch a movie or do not know another, until I feel tired to the point of knowing that once I fall into bed straight into the arms of Morpheus "without going off."
had been so long since I felt this sensation. And I do not like.
It's always strange to see one of your dreams built by someone else. Do not care how childish and they may be unattainable, the feeling aroused is something that might be expressed thus: "but then it was feasible."
In some cases a bit of envy or regret might occur, but fortunately this is not the case.
Yesterday when I heard about what I have not tried that happiness for this friend who, although not knowing much, I know enough to say that everything was worth only for the scientific method with which he faces any problem, as rare and I always envied.
For my part I can say that at the time was not the only one to covet a doctorate, or even the thesis, with Professor Russell. A last name is not common to those who will say little or nothing about the environment.
Yet if there is a teacher who has indelibly marked in my university course, can not be him. If only for the lessons of the introduction of object-oriented programming: a fantastic lesson based on Greek philosophy that crossed the mind of Plato up to the Aristotelian categories.
Now I will not write the crocodile, but with my friends still remember with pleasure the day of the test end of course when I come and Giannino thrown out because surprised "copy". And he always gave rise to teasing most popular among my friends, the "Goliath, you have the wrong building," which closed the proclamation of the first of two 30 that I took from him. And he repeated after two years, while signing the second 30.
Maybe I'm wrong that the palace really, who knows. We will see in a couple of month or so.
However, I can only wish this friend Professor will affect his professional life as I did it on mine.
