Not really a blog

So, finally, the new guadalinex is going to be made by emergya, the company I worked for last year.

It’’s going to be made in association with some other companies: Yaco, Interactors and, also, Canonical, the creators of the Ubuntu linux distribution, on which the new guadalinex is going to be based on.

Good luck to them!

Last year I started a blog in English when i bought the domain notreally.org. Lack of time and other bussines let the blog back in my mind.

I have decided to start using this typo blog as an excersice to learn ruby and try to add some features to it if I become more and more proficient on the language. It would be easy to restart if from scratch if I hadn”t written a couple of entries about a anti spam system I developed for pybloxsom.
I believe this little contribution is good enough not to be forgotten. So, I have set some rules on the apache config to redirect the blog entries to this new blog:

• Adding human verification to comments
• Creating images on the fly

But, I am going to let the old pybloxsom system run for a while, so people can test the whole system running. This way they can check that it really works, by using the first post entry.

On slashdot there is an interesnting story about apple considering using intel chips. including links from people who predicted this.

It’s interesting to think about it for a while and the efect it would have, even on all the apple lovers.

If somebody thinks this way apple would be a PC maker, this is highly unlikely, as some readers on slashdot point out. The thing is that a PC is not only a processor, but also an architecture. So, if apple simply removes the north bridge and uses an improved version or a similar IC, it would not be compatible at all with X86, as well as removing that back compatibility crap x86 has been perpetuating for so long. On the other hand, they could use a VLIW architecture, as in the itanium chip, an so, again it would be incompatible with the X86 market, but not on linux (I guess).

Anyway, let’’s see what’’s apple next move

So, I haven”t updated this blog for ages. Lack of time and all that stuff, you know, but I felt a little bit ashamed for not doing it.

Anyway, after a boring weekend, some sort of entertaiment came from discovering a new blog engine, written on rubyonrails. I think it’’s worth a chance, so I intend to use it for a while, to see how things go.
