La storia dei rapporti di Napolitano col mondo americano è carica di domande ancora da sciogliere, ma evidenzia in maniera chiara il desiderio di Napolitano di accreditarsi quale interlocutore privilegiato degli Stati Uniti.

Il percorso di Napolitano per divenire punto di riferimento di un vasto mondo di potere internazionale è stato tuttavia accidentato: il Dipartimento di Stato e l’intelligence statunitense non si fidavano facilmente di un comunista italiano. Il primo tentativo di Napolitano si rivelò infruttuoso: nel 1975 gli fu negato il visto, come avveniva per tutti i dirigenti comunisti.

As developers, our jobs are very stressful, jumping from deadline to deadline, solving difficult problems on a daily basis, and handling…

Wondering what the Getting Things Done (GTD) method is and how to implement it? We explore GTD by David Allen and rank the 14 best GTD apps.

SchedViz is a tool for gathering and visualizing kernel scheduling traces on Linux machines. It helps to:

• quantify task starvation due to round-robin queueing,
• identify primary antagonists stealing work from critical threads,
• determine when core allocation choices yield unnecessary waiting,
• evaluate different scheduling policies,
• and much more.

What should worry us most about artificial intelligence: losing our jobs to cheaper labor or losing our lives to killer robots? The real threat may lie in yet another danger: losing our minds.

Millions of Flickr images were sucked into a database called MegaFace. Now some of those faces may have the ability to sue.

Interesting project, but... no source code and license terms that suggest a plain commercial view.

I just wonder why these kind of projects are released on GitHub...

If you already don’t want to talk to your kids about sex, then it’s probably a safe bet that you really don’t want to talk to them about pornography. But with how easily accessible porn is on the internet and the prevalence of computers, tablets and smartphones in the hands of our kids (or their friends), they will almost certainly stumble upon it at some point—and probably at a much younger age than you’d expect.

PCA is a linear dimensionality reduction technique. Many non-linear dimensionality reduction techniques exist, but linear methods are more mature, if more limited.

Recently, I am learning how Elliptic Curve Cryptography works. I searched around the internet, found so many articles and videos explaining it. Most of them are covering only a portion of it, some of them skip many critical steps how you get from here to there. In the end, I didn’t find an article that really explains it from end-to-end in an intuitive way.

With that in mind, I would like to write a post explaining Elliptic Curve Cryptography, cover from the basics to key exchange, encryption, and decryption.

I often advocate people surrounding me to build their own side projects. I believe they can fulfill you in so many ways: for your career, your relationships, or your independence. Buffer, the company I currently work for, was itself a side project.
I’ve built myself multiple side projects. The major ones being PartyInBeijing (inactive), Nodablock (inactive), Citymayor (need to fix), and now TravelHustlers. I believe each of them contributed and lead me to my current situation: being satisfied in my career, financially, and socially.
