Fringe

2012-01-16T14:14:00.000-02:00

Fringe is probably my current favorite TV show. It is the vein of several other great sci-fi shows like Star Trek, Babylon-5, X-Files, Firefly and Battlestar Galactica. In terms of quality of course. All these shows share great writing and a big deal of imagination. They depict imaginary worlds or realities that make us believe in them so much that we lose the idea they're fiction products.

Fringe, has a premise, they will explain everything even though, they might use fringe science explanations. In fact, I really love when they have these paranormal activities episodes like when one of the characters returned from the dead using something called "soul magnets" or when Walter Bishop prays in a church, or when William Bell mentions God's will as a limit for scientific exploration. On the other hand, they discuss several traditional concepts from science fiction like parallel worlds, multiple universes, chaos theory, butterfly effects, androids, artificial intelligence with a bunch of moder cyberpunk concepts. The acting is superb.

Dennis Ritchie

2012-01-13T15:58:00.002-02:00

With the transition of Dennis Ritchie we lost one of our greatest genius. Unlike what many think, C was not simply a derivation from B and BPCL, these were actually interpreted languages. With the advent of C, Unix evolved and all the applications written for it evolved somehow.

Networking evolved, compilers evolved, embedded systems evolved. C and C++ are two of the greatest men achievements because they allowed a whole flow of technological discoveries to be made.

When I was young, I told my father that I hated to study biology. My father, like always, rather synthetic, wise and smart replied: "You eat biology son". Well, not literally, my parents are a retired Pharmacology PHD ( my father ) and a retired Milk Biologist PHD ( my mother ). My father wanted to tell me that what put food in our house was essentially biology research.

If my kids ever complain about C, I would have to quote my father replacing biology for C.

Hey Dennis, thanks for C and UNIX dude, when you were among us you rocked the earth, close to you, guys like Steve Jobs are regular men.

Playstation 2 finally released in Brazil

2011-03-10T19:29:00.001-03:00

It was really interesting to know about it officially. In 2009 I was working in a place close to a huge chain store here, and stopped by after lunch and realized they were selling PS2. I talked to my self : " Are they ? ". The fact is, Sony had not released it here in 2000 because of reasons that are not clear for me- some say piracy but it could be because they think we are monkeys :-)

Yet, instead of making PS2 an unknown game in Brazil, it turned out to be a huge hit. PS2 is largely the most played game in Brazil, because people imported it. The games, however, were pirated because they were not released here. Ops, yeah, Sony made a big mistake.

Even today, that they finally released it here, the games are very very expensive. Today, the console costs around 160,00 US Dollars, PS3 costs around 500,00. The games for this console cost like 100 US Dollars and there are only 10 PS3 games officially released in Brazil. Wii was released here and its price is not very decent.

Two new great Cartoon Network animes

2011-03-08T23:17:00.000-03:00

They are Sym-Bionic Titan and Generator Rex . I watched them with my kids. Now I let them say what they like about them: "Boring" says my oldest kid, though he always watches it. "cool" says my youngest kid. I must confess I really love these sci-fi cartoons. Graphically I thought about the excellent animation made by Brad Bird (Ratatouille and Incredibles) called The Iron Giant , that mixed CGI graphics with traditional animation.

To be continued....

Psychotic Waltz is back!

2011-02-28T19:20:00.000-03:00

Please read it here:

Out of the Everflow... the original Psychotic Waltz lineup is back and heading on tour with
Nevermore and Symphony X. February 25 to March 20th, 2011.

Yes, after so many time just checking Psychoticwaltz.com out of real serious curiosity and for hoping for a miracle, I finally read that! Yeah, they are touring in Europe with the original lineup. If you have checked this blog, you probably know how crazy I am for PW ( along with Dream Theater, Queensryche and Symphony X, my favorite prog metal bands ever ). I even put them in a different category as I think they have created a genre of their own.

I have reviewed their albums at Amazon here and here. Please check out this band, now they are back I am hoping for a DVD and a new album. A concert down here on the forgotten lands of Brazil is completely "out of mind"...

This is the best news this year so far in the metal genre. Probably the only album I will buy this year considering that I am unemployed.

Job question and why I think you should not use MingW

2011-02-19T18:39:00.007-02:00

I had a job interview and they asked me to write a program to read 10 registers with the following fields:

Name, address, phone and age.

And I should print out the two eldest in the list. I could use any language I wanted, then I thought if I chose pure ANSI C would be really painful because I would need to sort these registers using qsort. Then I thought about using C++ and STL, that is really the easiest way to do that fast, and to be honest the shortest and more concise way. The STL supplies me the sort method that can take, a pointer iterator to the first item and one pointer to the last.

When I was there I just forget two important things, when I sort a container I sort it from low to high, as I would override the < operator. And I forgot to implement the constructor.

Anyway I came to home and tried to implement it using DevCpp, which has MingW built in, which is a gcc port for Windows. I think that DevCpp uses a real old version of MingW, but that is no excuse for not compiling STL based code properly. If I use MingW the code below won't compile. I just did what is better for C++ programmers on Windows, I used Visual C++ Express 2008. And it compiles. The copy constructor is a bonus.

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <string>
#include <algorithm>
using namespace std;

class Registro {
public:
     Registro(string& Nome, string& Endereco, string& telefone, int idade );
    Registro(const Registro& reg);
    bool operator<(const Registro& reg);
     string Nome;
     string Endereco;
     string telefone;
     int idade ;
};

Registro::Registro(string& Nome, string& Endereco, string& telefone, int idade )
{
     this->Nome = Nome;
     this->Endereco = Endereco;
     this->telefone = telefone;
     this->idade = idade;
}

Registro::Registro(const Registro& reg)
{
    this->Endereco = reg.Endereco;
    this->Nome = reg.Nome;
    this->telefone = reg.telefone;
    this->idade = reg.idade;
}

bool Registro::operator<(const Registro& reg)
{
    if ( this->idade < reg.idade)
        return true;
    return false;
}

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
    int cnt = 0;
    vector<Registro> regs;
    while ( cnt < 4 )
    {
          string Nome;
          string telefone;
          string end;
          int idade = 0;

          cout << "Digite o Nome: " ;
          cin >> Nome;
          cout << endl;

          cout << "Digite o Endereco: " ;
          cin >> end;
          cout << endl;

          cout << "Digite o telefone: " ;
          cin >> end;
          cout << endl;

          cout << "Digite a idade: " ;
          cin >> idade;
          cout << endl;

          Registro reg(Nome,end,telefone,idade);
          regs.push_back(reg);
          cnt++;
    }
    sort(regs.begin(), regs.end());
    cout << "O Mais idoso: " << regs[regs.size()-1].Nome << endl;
    cout << "O segundo mais idoso: " << regs[ regs.size()-2].Nome << endl;
    return 0;
}

Now it is ok , it works fine. I thought about downloading Visual C++ 2010, but it would require a bunch of .NET 4.0 framework based tools and I thought "No for now." I am on a netbook ( It is strange calling this a netbook, as it has 150 GBytes of HD, 1 G of Ram, 1.5 GHz processor and it runs fast while compiling C or .NET code ).

Cautiva

2011-02-02T22:39:00.000-02:00

Cautiva is a single-man band. It is Jose Traviesso doing everything. Jose is a musician with roots on the classical area, he is an erudite composer and pianist. It happens that he also loves prog rock and technical metal and technical thrash metal. So he created Cautiva, a band that both shares his love for metal and his ability to write complex musical pieces.

You can actually check out his web site and see that his musical experiences go beyond metal. Anyway, last year he made hard copies of his masterpiece "Human" and I was fortunate to acquire one autographed copy .

If you can picture a mix of King Crimson, Mekong Delta with emphasis in minor harmonic and melodic scales that are common in Spain, you would reach the point. In fact I invite you to dig it, check the links.

It is wallllllllllllllllyyyyyyyyyyyy

2011-01-31T18:56:00.002-02:00

There are lots of people that do not get when I say that "Wall.e" is one of my favorite Pixar and animated filmes ever made. It is because I pronounce it "Wally" just like in the movie.

Well, some people watched it 5 or 6 times with their kids and still call it "wow E". Of course, the Pixar dudes thought of this pun with the term WALL.E, and while Wally gets older and for consequence, capable of having emotions, WALL.E turns out into Wally, the robot with human emotions. Wall.e is actually an acronym for Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class.

Ben 10

2010-10-02T14:34:00.001-03:00

I got into Ben 10 because my kids love this anime. I always watch cartoons with them, but some of them are very annoying.

Ben 10 and later Ben 10 Alien Force captivated me in the sense I really like them. Ben was originally a 10 years old kid, later 15 and today is 16.

He does wrong things in the series, but as he matures he is learning with his mistakes and becomes more wise.

The creators could have made this "Discovery Kids Crap Like" cartoon doing this, but that is not the case. Ben 10 is for kids, but it is a sci-fi cartoon, actually the science of it is purposedly "not accurate": it is fantasy.

My favorite episode is probably Ben 10000 where the future Ben, can turn him self into 10000 aliens, and virtually can do anything, and "Paradox" on Ben 10 Alien Force, where a scientist sees his experiment going unexpected and projecting him to the future, to a point he sees everything and the fabric of time. Very fun!

Brazilian ellections

It seems that Dilma will win, may God have mercy on us!

Dio RIP

2010-05-20T23:04:00.000-03:00

You know, my latest post was about Dio. I was shocked later sad, very very much sad.

To me Dio represented Metal, he was one of the guys who invented it. He was some of the coolest metal guys. I don't want to extend my self much.

RIP Master Dio, my condolences to his wife and family.

Prayers for Dio

2010-02-10T11:05:00.001-02:00

Ronnie James Dio, possibly the best metal singer ever, was diagnosed of cancer. He is on treatment for the disease but thanks to God he seems to be fine.

I don't think I need to comment on Ronnie the singer and metal legend, but contrary to what has been said, Dio is one of the nicest folks on metal so you can read from everybody who was in a band with him or from fans that talked to him after concerts.

I wish him a fast recovery, not solely because I want the man back to sing and write, but because what he has given us over the years, I think he deserves the best of times!

AVRs

2010-01-11T16:23:00.001-02:00

I finally got to turn leds ON and OFF. In fact, I have made them light on based on a pattern :

PORTD = 1;
Delay( );
PORTD=2;
/*etc ...*/

I actually used the code that is recommended by AVR gurus that is using C operators, however for this simple purpose, I just ommit them here.

My delay routine was simple:

void Delay( void )
{
int cnt = 5555; /*Should be unsigned long cnt = 5555 */
while( cnt-- );
}

Dumb me. The compiler will ignore my int cnt ! I just need a unsigned long int and it will work. Well, it has worked ! :-)

Yikes.

Motherboards, USB ports and Windows

2010-01-05T07:26:00.002-02:00

I have bought a USB programmer for AVR from a Brazilian electronics store. Imagine my excitement to test it after realizing that a simple parallel port programmer for AVR was not working. Then I connected the programmer to my ATMega8 and .....

USP programmer not recognized? Hell, didn't I install all those drivers? Wasn't this USB port working for my pendrive and Palm zire? I assumed I had made some mistake on the board and - fortunatelly I am using a breadboard - assembled it all again and it still did not work.

The, I recall how hard was to make a USB port to connect to Motorola phones while I worked there and switched for the other port behind the PC and....

It works. Who is to blame ? ASUS or Windows XP? By the way, I tried to compile the simplest code possible by using WinAVR on Vista, but I ended up finding out that in certain versions of Vista, WinAVR does not work.

Man, please don't waste time with parallel port programmers if you are using AVR. Trust me.

back to home

2010-01-04T12:58:00.001-02:00

I went back home this last new year holiday. Sadly, the elected mayor is not doing a good job. I went to school with this guy, he's not someone to whom I would extend my vote of trust. In fact he is far, very far from that.

My hometown is very different from my teens or 20s, it is now dark, empty of light and full of "manos". "manos" is how we call here "young folks that are about to embrace robbery, drug dealing or simply young folks that love riots".

Despite where my parents live and where my wife's mother lives, I hardly like the place these days. It is sad to see that the city has grown and lost part of its natural beauty. Maybe, it is just my self getting old enough. But the city is not what it used to be. Everybody there seems strange to me, maybe because everyone I knew got old enough. Some places still hold the old spirit.

I like the cd store there. I recall when I bought cds there and the place was in a very tiny corner. Now it is placed in a huge room. The owner is smart. He realized that if he sold metal cds, he would make money. And now he even gives recommendations. He also sells regular music, things most people want to hear. He is smart.

My hometown has a very decent fried pizza restaurant called "Semiao", named after the name of the founder. Crispy fried pizza with lots of different flavors.

But what scared me the most was the fact that the sugar cane agriculture is reaching the city limits. When all that is done, the city will die, at least for me. As it is placed above a mild mountain formation, most of its beauty is due to this mix of high place weather and mountain look like place.

Perhaps this is the price you pay for getting old.

Yes "Magnification"

2009-12-28T15:27:00.001-02:00

I also bought Yes "Magnification", because it was cheap. It was a tremendous fault not having bought it when it was out in 2001. I think it was not released in Brazil very recently also.

Anyway, take Yes, replace the keyboards for an orchestra and then you have it.

Slightly proggier than the proggiest songs on "The Ladder", one hardly will miss keys. Ok, I am big fan of Rick Wakeman, Moraz and Tony Kaye, but I would not miss them here for sure.

The old dudes are doing things for fun man, this is what is comes out from listening this album. It should not be fantastic, but it is.

Allan White is a tremendous great drummer. He had the bad luck of having to replace BILL "DAMAN" BRUFORD. Should I had to choose a favorite drummer that would be Allan. Technically, Bruford might be better, but Allan White is such a cool guy doing his best with Yes.

I hardly pay attention to their lyrics lately. But Jon's voice is as always terrific. Squire is a little in the corner, but does lead vocals on a song here. Steve Howe shines over all the record.

It seems that Jon Anderson had health troubles and the guys just decided to put a new guy in his place. Honestly I have given up of morally judging my heroes ( well unless they rape, kill, or worse :-)).

Yes in Brazil 1999 The Ladder tour

2009-12-16T14:33:00.004-02:00

I was checking my messages to a Shadow Gallery mailing list in September 1999 and then I found my message about the Yes concert I had seen on September 8th:

Here is the message:

"Hello José

I saw Yes in Brazil last September 8 and the set list was very similar.Unfortunately Howe didn't play "The Clap" nor "Mood For A Day. :(

But at least "Awaken" was played amazingly!America, Perpetual Change had full versions and "Ritual (Nous sommes du soleil)"
was sung briefly when Jon announced a song from the new album
he said "A new song to you" and than that derived to him and Howe playing a short cut of that. :) They did the same with parts of "Close To The Edge".

I could not understand most titles of the new songs but a friend got the set list and sent me :

Intro: Benjamin Britten's Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra
Yours is no Disgrace
America
Lightning Strikes (new)
New Language (new)
Perpetual Change
Homeworld (new)
The Messenger
Owner of a Lonely Heart
Hearts
Nine Voices (new)
Awaken
Roundabout
Encore:
To feel alive (new)
(I've Seen All) Good People

I don't know about the other concerts Yes did in Brazil but as
for the one I went to , that was the set list :)
Jose' , Did Yes jam during on the middle of Yours Is No Disgrace
too? Here they jammed a lot, the song had Howe soloing a lot!

Yes "Tales From Topographic Oceans"

2009-12-16T12:46:00.002-02:00

You know. Well, you don't know that really. But the very first progressive rock band I got into was Yes. That was around 1988 and at that time the only kind of music I listened was metal. Then in 1988 I started my second musical passion: Prog Rock.

The very first album I heard from Yes was "Relayer" and then, the kid that only knew "Owner of A Lonly Heart" was rather intrigued by the band who sounded like something he had never heard before.

Later other albums of this amazing band captivated me, like "Fragile", "Close to the Edge" and "Going For the One". To be honest, I must own like 16 or 17 Yes CDs, 4 DVDs and half a dozen LPs. I even like things like "Talk" ( which I still don't own) or "90125". In certain terms I am a big fan of the band rather than a prog rock purist that loves the old albums.

I saw Yes alive in 1999 along with 3 of my best online friends.

Chris Squire has been a hero for me since I cannot remember when. The guy is probably my all time bass player and music writer.

Well, one of the Yes studio albums missing in my CD collection ( along with "Big Generator", "Talk", "ABWH", Union and the first two ) was "Tales From Topographic Oceans". I got it other day. This is a new issue with extra tracks and remastering. I am listening to it now as I write. I had the LP of this classic album and I have always missed having that on CD.

It is a landmark for the genre: not only prog rock but for rock as a whole. The cover art by Roger Dean evokes my childhood when I spent time at my grandfather's home and my uncle who is an artist painted pictures in the same vein (was a big fan of Roger Dean) and also played Yes a lot. Roger Dean cd covers seem to contain whole universes. I used to spent hours looking at my uncle's collection after prog rock LPs.

The music of "Tales" spreads over 4 songs that are multi-layered and atmospheric, while they also have great melodies contrary to what detractors say about "Tales", it is far from boring and pretentious. It is simply amazing beauty in form of music.

After 1988 I got into Gentle Giant, Genesis, Tull, King Crimson but Yes has always been my favorite prog rock band ever.

Atmel AVR Microcontrollers

2009-12-11T13:23:00.002-02:00

I had touched the subject in the past as you can see here and also here , but I didn't go further because of my job. I have been interested on the AVRs since 2005 when I was programming a system whose internal printer was controlled by an AVR microcontroller. There was some old datasheet that grabbed my attention. I picked up it and read it for fun when I decided to look for things on the Internet.

Since then, I've been always thinking on assembling a board for programming the AVRs. Now I actually did this, or at least I am starting to assembly a board and later on I will start programming it.

It was like 10 years ago when I had to assembly a circuit on a breadboard, so initially I had to trust my memory and then after a few minutes I remembered :-)

I got resistors, capacitors, LCDs, Leds, temperature sensors, 7 segment displays, transistors. It is fun that I am an Electronic Engineer who has never professionally designed hardware and now as a hobby I have to design hardware. By the way, I will use C for programming. As I spend the day programming in Assembly I just want some thing different!

Project Natal

2009-09-30T11:54:00.001-03:00

A friend taught me about XBOX 360 new interface called Natal. In short words, it has cameras and sensors in front of the console instead of the WII-like interfaces. And you can play or interact with virtual AIs through this interface.

As we used to say at college, Nintendo was smart but used a simple solution to create seamless control of its games, but Microsoft was smarter and created a real solution.

You know, the technology for this new thing that Microsoft released as a product have existed for decades. It was just impossible to have hardware that responded fast enough to enable a real and actual solution.

Microsoft kicked a real ass with this new Natal thing. They put mankind in a new level. To me, technology is now separated by the singular event of the creation and the release of Natal.

Congrats Microsoft!

Tech blog as well

2009-09-29T13:13:00.001-03:00

I have noticed that I have been written a lot about music lately, and one of the reasons for this blog was to discuss technical issues.

I have been installing the .NET web development enviroment at HOME from Microsoft which incredibly allows us to dowload all the things ( Visual Studio Express, SQL Lite Server, etc.) for free. They might have noticed that developers are allies rather than customers.

ASP.NET from what I gather, is a much better and nicer solution to Web applications compared to the ones that are available. But what I want to discuss, "cutting off adjectives", is that a computer is a large electronic circuit. Due to its complexity and level of integration we need abstractions layers to make it look understandable.

But whenever you hit a web control, there is no magical entity that does the job, there are electrons being conducted and processed by large circuits. Sometimes if one grasps the whole thing, one can see the wonders of computer systems and what we, as a race, have achieved from a scientific perspective.

A whole industrial plant being controlled, managed automatically in all aspects: functional, admistrative, finantial, it simply shows a miracle of our achievements. A telephony system in the same level, integrates people through a myriad of complex operations. Whenever you use your debit card without needing paper-money, checks, look at the very wonder of this.

When you see these things, thank someone like me and my colleagues. We have been beaten, bashed, bad treated, poorly paid, but we remain strong.

Cautiva

2009-09-22T07:31:00.000-03:00

Another great band from freemetal corner. Cautiva. This is actually a one man band, i.e. José Travieso. He does everything. Cautiva is a progressive technical thrash metal band with roots on 80s thrash and technical thrash a la Mekong Delta. José is actually a music professor, so it seems, and writes erudite music as well as pure insane thrash metal. His band is actually one of the finest things on Thrash Metal currently in action. Extremely fuckin recommended! Thrash on!

India

2009-08-31T13:13:00.001-03:00

In Brazil there is a crappy soap opera that has 50% of its broadcasting time based on characters that are supposed to live in India, Just like this soap opera distorts the reality, I have been done the very same thing.

India has become one of the largest software producers ( I precisely work doing software by the way), and there has been a lot of people here that tell that India will make us lose our jobs. Instead of doing a proper and further analysis, I followed the flow and started making severe critics to them. It was all stupid. I realize now and I apologize to everyone that is concerned.

I have been working with guys from India, and man, these guys are really good at writing software. We may even not be as good as them. At least I am not, I can tell.

They suffer from a big problem though: their companies cannot maintain employees long enough to create a stable staff and that is why sometimes you see lack of quality in some of their software.

After all, it is my current goal to be at least half as good as those guys. And avoid being stupid once again.

Psychotic Waltz

2009-08-24T12:29:00.006-03:00

"(...)I've seen the sunshine on the black side of the moon and

I've seen the faces that laugh and turned to cry see his disguise see the laugh in his eyes drink from the tear that he cries

I've watched the grey man wishing he were young like meand I've seen the child and the young fool(...)" (Psychotic Waltz I Of the Storm ).

I did not know that Metal Blade had released all Pyschotic Waltz four cds with an extra cds with demos from Aslan ( earlier PW ) and "Into The Everflow" pre-recordings plus a DVD with video clips and a bootleg concert. I actually did not know that and I was not really able to afford that package until 2 weeks ago when I found two brand new copies of the packages:

- A Social Grace/Mosquito/DVD

- Into the Everflow/Bleeding/cd with demos

Man, this was so fuckin' amazing to finally have these cds at hand. They are perhaps the finest thing written on technical metal or prog metal or whatever you call them.

I got them from http://shadowkingdomrecords.com/ and they sent me the cds fast and in real good shape!

Please also, check http://www.psychoticwaltz.com/ and if you ever get a chance, buy the cds. It is one of bands that deserve you to do it most definitely.

Beardfish

2009-06-29T12:37:00.005-03:00

Beardfish is an exceptional new prog rock band from Sweden. Their latest two concept albums are fuckin insanely good. If you like Gentle Giant, King Crimson, Zappa and good humor check them out.

They are great musicians but their song writing is what makes the difference. Once a while you hear some homages to Gentle Giant and Zappa ( more like homages, they are not ripping off them of course ) but their music stands out as one of the finest in prog rock.

I can see the RIO guys complaining about them, which makes things even funnier.

Symphony x

2009-06-22T12:52:00.003-03:00

I saw them live back in 2000. They were kicking ass needless to say. They have not played some of my favorite tracks from "Divine Wings Of Tragedy", according to Jason Rullo because they were told that the audience was formed of true metal kids, which was true.

But Michael Romeo and Pinnella really play that well. Allen is a monster live too. Jason Rullo easily kicks the ass of the current Portnoy. Lepond got some chicks after the concert, which was the best thing he did ( yeah I am a Thomas Miller fan ).

But yeah, in the past I had sold all their cds because I needed money and last week I bought them all except "Paradise Lost". They are among my favorite bands most definetely. Their web site link is on the right side of this blog.

My favorite sci-fi films.

2009-03-13T08:22:00.003-03:00

Forbidden Planet - I have watched this as a kid, still want to see it again. The plot was amazing.
War of The Worlds - Watch Both versions, original and Spielbergs.
2001 - The pinnacle of hard sci fi films.
Solaris - Watch it in day you are in a good mood, because you will need that, but worth of course. Clockwork Orange - A distopian proto cyberpunk classic.
Westworld - get some wild androids going nuts.
The Andromeda Strain- Really astonishing film for its time.
Alien 1- The best one ever made about killer aliens
Outland - a western in space
Blade Runner - Best film ever (IMHO of course :-))
Predator 1- though not strictly sci-fi, the monster is an alien right?
Akira- Cyberpunk anime. A classic.
Total Recall - P. K Dicks based film with roller-coaster action and Sharon Stone.
Sphere- Highly underrated but really impressive.
Contact- A very good version of Carl Sagan's excellent book.
Dark City - One of the most underrated films ever. Must see it.
13th Floor - part of the "fake worlds" not connected trilogy with the above and below mentioned films.
Matrix 1 - You probably watched it already.
Ghost in The Shell- Maybe the best cyberpunk anime ever made.
Fifth Element - The best space opera ever made. Astonishing visual.
Gattaca - genetic engineering themes.
Serenity - Watch the series first though: Firefly
Minority Report- Check the eye scene.
AI: Yeah I pretty much dig it.
The Chronicles of Riddick- This is a futuristic fantasy but hell worth it.
Wall.e - Really astonishing film though people think it is aimed to kids only.

These are my favorite ones, I am not even calling them "bests", because it would be frakkin arrogant ;-)

The Last Cylon is....

2009-01-07T22:31:00.001-02:00

Although I think that by saying my following opinion I will have to accept some “mysterious and religious” events on "Battlestar Galactica" , I think that it is more logical to think that Gaius Baltar is the Last Cylon.

The visions he has with number 6 are not visions properly speaking, they are rather the Cylon inner being that lies within his brain. Of course he was examined by the doctor, but the last Cylon is a different kind. That would explain much of the talkings he and number 6 have in Gaius conscience.

On ther other hand, Caprica can see a form of Gaius Baltar in her mind, because when she arrived at Galactica, Gaius/Cylon realized it and sent a message to her. This would be an advance form of communication just as one we have today in wireless communications where devices constantly poll other devices close to them. When Gaius found her he started sending her these messages. That is why she sees a Gaius Baltar in her mind.

I even wonder that Gaius/Last Cylon may be the first AI created by mankind just spreading his code through centuries and space.

Gaius/Number Six/Cylon represent a religious triad just as in the Father/Son and Holy Ghost.

Links

2008-11-07T12:54:00.000-02:00

I have added a few good links at the right side of the screen. I do not add links to major bands and artists for example: Steve Vai, Dream Theater, Rush, Iron Maiden and Yes ( to name a few ), which are simply favorites of mine, but are easily Googled.

I hope that you find a good suggestion like for example: a new band.

Previuosly I posted a long list of links, because I know that is mainly what people come here to this Blog for. Ok, and ARM simulators. Yikes.

A tip for you all ARM freaks

2008-06-28T18:49:00.001-03:00

Ok, Keil, ARM and IAR compilers have tons of good tools to aid you to come up with the startup code and scripts for memory mapping, but guess what ? The documentation for the GNU ARM compiler is practically inexistent for free. Unless you buy a book called "Embedded Systems Design on a shoestring", which is very expensive btw, you will not have many references to figure out how to write the whole thing from scratch. Other day I was just surging around and found this.

Or in simples words, the article just explains it all for free and fun. I just gave you this link, scroll down the page and check the links to all the parts, print them all and have fun.

Best places to eat when you are in Atibaia

2008-05-28T18:07:00.000-03:00

I have lived in Atibaia SP Brazil for a year and there were two places I strongly recommend you to visit. The city has many restaurants, most of them very expensive and not worth the dimes.

Delicias do Paulo is known for the parmeggiana steak, which is a favorite of mine, Although I could not afford a real filet mignon , a contra filet was possible to my pocket. Man, they have two sizes for the dish, and the small one is enough for 3 persons. It is accompanied by rice and French fries. A crispy mass evolves the meat and the tomatoes sauce is carefully made to add flavor not just hide lack of taste and spices. And they have this mixture of two kinds of cheese, mozzarella and a traditional cheese from Minas Gerais. The price of the medium steak was 35 reais ( contra filet ) and around 40 for the filet mignon. But really worth.

Picanha na Tabua is what we call here a "churrascaria" or a "all you can eat : steakhouse". But many have these buffet tables to make you eat stuff and forget the meat it self. At Picanha na Tabua, they serve you a big dish with sallad, rice, beans, sauce and bread and then they start bringing you maminhas, fraldinhas com bacon, picanha, cupim, everything roasted and made as it should be. The best barbecue you will find there. The price was around 9,90 reais so it is more than worth.

ARM

2008-05-28T09:50:00.000-03:00

I have looked over for the topics people reach this blog and it seems that most people check my ARM simulators post.

I have a piece of advice. Being my self poor enough to not being able to afford any ARM development board ( though Olimex has cheap ones ) I got into this search for a simulator. I in fact do not recommend using one. If you are after getting knowledge with ARM, you probably would be better buying a cheap J-TAG and development board from Olimex ( hey Olimex, if you want to give me free hardware for this free advertisement I am not gonna regret ;-)) and using Yagarto , not a lizard folks, just a suite with all the stuff you need.

However, commercially speaking I would be willing to do ARM development from scratch, only if paid by a major company which could afford compilers like Keil or IAR. And real good debugging hardware.

Anyway, you can play with IAR and Keil demos.

If programming for hobby, please consider AVRs, their 32 bits version for example.

--
I intentionally did not include links for Keil or IAR here. If they want to advertise, I want them to pay me :-) This is my "demo advertisement". But I do admit, their products are excellent.

AVR Quick start for C freaks Part 2: Information

2008-05-08T17:01:00.002-03:00

Ok, first of all get the datasheets, they are far better than 99% of the tutorials you are trying to find on the web. If you are not satisfied, check this tutorial . They describe the architecture, assembly, external hardware in more palatable words than ATMEL and they make use of the Atmega8 AVR processor as an example. They also have GOOD schematics for the hardware.
In fact, they seem to be happy to give a picture of the whole thing.

As for C programming, the link below is quite didactic as it also teaches C, but it will fill us - C old freaks and 8 bit microcontrollers fans- with good tips.

http://espace.library.uq.edu.au/view/UQ:13029

I had posted another link, but I became aware that it used many deprecated features so I think that the best reference is actually the documentation it self:

http://www.nongnu.org/avr-libc/

Is also a good place to go and play around:
http://www.avrfreaks.net

Actually, this is the first site you should check, but the information is not quite easy to find at first grasp, so don't give up. Do like me and try the forums first. Believe me, this is actually one of the few forums around that have posts that can teach you anything on the subject they are supposed to deal with: AVRs. The ARM lists, for example, are full of people rather preoccupied to show their skills than to help.

More of it, I can come up later. Just avoid the hard paths. Go straight to these links given by me.
And of course: http://www.atmel.com

Ok, for now it is all I can give. I still don't have a secure knowledge of the programming softwares to load the hex code to AVRs, they seem to be easy to assembly.

AVR Quick start for C freaks Part 1: The Software

2008-05-08T08:21:00.001-03:00

The ATMEL AVR processors, are the genuine state of art in 8 bit processors. In fact it is historically known that its architecture evolved with C programming in mind. Please take a look at Wikipedia . If you don't trust me of course. Well, the initial chips were designed by some brilliant Norway dudes from ATMEL Norway. More info from Wikipedia here.

AVRs benefit from RISC instruction set and Harvard architecture and it is generally reported as the fastest and more efficient 8 bit microcontrollers.

I don't aim to teach the whole thing, I just see you like someone like me: you know C pretty darn well, you can read a datasheet and grasp a processor easily, you don't use and don't want to use pirate software.

Firstly get these software:

Some AVR developers gathered all open source free tools to develop programs for AVR using C, that's WinAVR.
Get the AVRStudio from ATMEL, it is free and you can interconect it with the compiler that comes with WinAVR.

This is all. Really. WinAVR has in the bundle, the avr-gcc compiler, which is a MingGW port for AVR. They also put in the bundle the avrc-lib which is a C libray for usage . When you install WinAVR it will set your Windows leaving nothing for you, avoiding headaches. You may of course, use the IDE that comes with WinAVR but believe me, I used it, also used many others and none of them handles makefiles. Yes, I have edited the make file template that comes with WinAVR and got to compile, make, etc. It is just that if you install AVRStudio the ATMEL freaks allow that you choose the GCC compiler, and just edit the make file visually. Which is a piece of cake. I am old, I don't need to waste time to brag about how cool I am because I handle my make files by hand ;-)

Coming next :Part 2 or "Hey Man, where do I get information on the AVRs without wasting time searching on google or need to ask it in forums full of people that is easily irritated?" which I will answer pointing the good and free docs on the web that I took some time to find.

Sci-lab

2008-03-26T13:42:00.000-03:00

When I was in college we had to use Matlab, a real expensive yet quite useful software suite for math, control systems and DSP or whatever. I even programmed image processing techniques using it. However, there is Sci-lab!

It is basically the same as Matlab but free. I guess this is the best open source software ever made along with Gimp.

I've been away

2007-11-21T16:21:00.000-02:00

Yeah, I haven't written anything here lately, but yes, I am not working at this "huge telecom company" which I cannot mention, just got back to my old job, Iman. I wrote a few Assembly code ( I can tell you I do not fear Assembly anymore ;-)), some C, and lots of Java. Yes, either I love Java or I will get nuts.

If you have read this blog you know that I oscillate between hating Java and enjoying it. In fact, I don't think it is particularly awesome like C, but it is much better than C++. Well, Java requires RAM and processor to run fast, but I am speaking of having fun with OOP. C++ is generally a pain. By the way, I am not a desktop developer, I am just considering myself an embedded developer where C++ and Java do not apply, but I had to program both C++ and Java professionally and I do like Java better. In a way it provides a layer of abstraction of the hardware, so I tend to think I am programming for a generic hardware. I am not a web programmer you all know.

The old good C and embedded

2007-01-13T10:22:00.000-02:00

It is a little strange that guys like me still prefer procedural ANSI C to things like C++ ( although I have to program in C++ at my job) but then I am just commenting on what I do like best. I might add that a real good embedded system might benefit of C++ classes in the OS level, but for the lowest level or the application level I still insist in using C. Because it is funnier? No. It is easier.

It is a little weird to think that people see embedded systems as a single man's tasks. Rather complex systems require a ton of complexity that a single soul could not handle alone. Today, you have people that make the architecture, the design, and people that integrate large portions of the project. It is crazy to see people wondering why such a small thing is so complex.

For example, check a Palm system. A few guys create the hardware. Other guys write the low level code that access its I/Os ( USB, bluetooth, whatever, etc ) and display. Other guys integrate them on OS making probably avail APIs to access them.

Then, another group of people write applications to run at it.

The designer leaves just the hints and joinings for every group.

Complexity is an issue that does not hit regular people. Although they might say that "I don't have a clue how it works" they could claim that, "for those who know it, it might be no big deal".
Yeah.

Suppose you have a real good RTOS and it allows you to create tasks ( I assume that you are a hardcore tech fan from now ), a real simple and ingenous skeleton for your application would be:

int main( void )
{
/* OS does it, untill now the start up code set tons of things*/
InitiateAllLowLevelHardware();
/*Good do it*/
TestMemory();
StartYourTasks();
while ( true )
{/**/};

}

void StartYourTaks( void )
{
createTask1( functionthatdoes it, stacksize , priority);
/* the list goes on */
}

The OS will handle the tasks, interruptions and access to shared memory contents, I/os like printers, or serial ports.

I am lazy now.

I will stop.

I never thought

2007-01-11T10:41:00.000-02:00

... I would professionally work with Unix or Linux. But I do now. I never thought it would be such a pain, basically because people that work with them expect you to be an expert on it. I can't tell you that right now, but I am intermediate right now. Perhaps.

These "experts" have taught me a big deal of shell, but none of them agree which is the best. I chose bash because it was the one that had more easy support. I won't start writting code on it like crazy, but whenever I need I will try.

I am basically about to not use Windows at home either. Allowing kids and wife to have Windows 98 for their fun. All that I need is to get my WinModem working on Linux.

One of the signs of age is when you realize that doing something just because it is hard just does not matther. So, if I was young, I would try slackware, but I will be happy with Red Hat 9, which runs well at my AMD K7 1 GHz 128Mbytes of RAM. With GNOME. KDE was very slow. I like GNOME so I don't mind.

There is also some tricky C++ code that I have had to write. I never thought some of it would give me troubles, but these lines use polymorphism like hell and thus a few times require a great deal of casting. It is scary.

BTW, if you know how to teach an old and big fan of ANSI C programming like me how to undertsand design patterns go ahead and drop me a line.

Pspad

2007-01-05T16:23:00.000-02:00

Due to job issues I don't have any particular IDE to write code so, I have strongly searched for a good one. Although I need to write code and compile at UNIX, I can edit it on Windows. I tested many editors, at UNIX, LINUX and Windows and the best one by far is Pspad. It is a freeware editor free of malware and that has received many awards.

I cannot pay the guy who wrote it ( though I plan to do it ) now but can give the software a lot of praise. It gives you so many tools:

1 Syntax Highlight:
Yes, most editos also support it, but Pspad is easy to set. I personally use its C template with the Dark scheme. I have just made a few changes.

2 Integration with windows explorer
Well, as I edit code from a ClearCase vobs, located at UNIX, I need to map this vobs and open and manage the files from explorer. I mainly do it because I don't like any editor at UNIX or LINUX ( except Emacs which is awesome, but I am lazy to learn ) , thus by right clikcing a file at PsPad allows me to checkout or checkin files.

(Later edit: I gave a new try to nedit as I found my self typing nedit everytime and upgraded to 5.5 and truth to be told I am enjoying it a ton ).

3 Bookmarks

4. Find and Search in files

5. I comes with an ASCII table.

6. I navigate through the code easily.

So, that is the best one, PSPAD!

A note for Emacs: I of course have used it. Loved it, but one needs to get used with its many command lines. As a matter of fact, when viewing a file I use it a lot.

Long time no seeya

2006-10-05T16:20:00.000-03:00

I haven't posted here lately.

Why? I am very busy at work. Good excuse ;-) I hardly touched my home PC lately.. I should upgrade it. I would do it if I could afford. Lately I have been thinking to
install an UNIX emulator, since I have been used with it lately so I can have fun and perhaps I can get some of the cool features of UNIX without bothering to install Linux.

Other day I was typing something at the WINDOWS shell and instead of hitting DIR I typed ls.. This is the price of getting experienced with Unix.

I used to be an yahoo user. Since around 1997, so, when Google became big, I did not go after the flow and kept usign yahoo. Lately, yahoo has made annoying changes in their geocities server perhaps trying to make the free users to pay for it, so , in return I started to use Google. And to my surprise, Google is much better than any other. ;-)

I use gmail, blogspot and I google, so you can say I googled.

A friend of mine has given me this tip about a great IDE for C/C++ development ( well you can do any dev with it ) PsPad .

So far I have customized its highlighting to look like Turbo C, and it is excellent so far. It is free of malware and other stupid things that kids like to include in their free software....

You have seen large posts

Yes,

Because I just wanted to remove them from the geosucks server. They lately have complained that I am over the limit when my quota actually is 82 %. They want to force me to pay for the service which I won't because of money I don't have and because I was a geocities user prior to yahoosucks acquiring it. I actually don't use yahoosucks for searches anymore and just hit its bounds when I need to check one of the groups I am subscribed at their server.

I GOOGLE for stuff, google you too!
