Deseos de chicos de las Villa 21 de Barracas...
- Una fabrica para que pueda trabajar mi papa

- Una torta de cumpleaños porque el año pasado no me lo pudieron festejar
- Una Flor porque vivo cerca del Ruachielo y no me gusta el olor.

Sobre la muerte del capitalismo,
El comunismo muere porque algo que "es de todos" termina siendo de
nadie. El capitalismo muere por la misma razón.
Según Adam Smith el "interés legítimo del dueño" garantiza la
eficiencia del sistema. Hoy estamos ante la desaparición del "interés
legítimo del dueño" por la desaparición del dueño en si.
Las corporaciones son sociedades anónimas, siendo los principales
accionistas fondos comunes de inversión, los cuales a su vez no tienen
dueño sino un administrador. A los administradores solamente les
importa comprar acciones de las empresas que hagan los eventos en las
playas más bonitas. A los CEOs y CFOs solo les interesa "dibujar" los
números por un año y retirarse luego de cobrar un cuantioso bono.
Los procesos y las tecnologías modernas permiten lograr con
conglomerados de PYMES lo que antes solo lograban las grandes
corporaciones, pero ahora a un precio mucho menor, gracias al "interés
legítimo del dueño".
El futuro es de las PYMES.

Practical Common Lisp
http://www.gigamonkeys.com/book/
Ok, So for what I remember, the programming language I have the most fun with was by far Lisp. At university I learned Pascal, C, JAVA, Smaltalk, APL, FP and Lisp. I just can say that LISP was really fun to work with. It was all about thinking A LOT and only after a lot of thinking writing three lines of code (function name, single instance condition and recursion).
I'll give it another try.

Today I'm inspired... From what I read, the SMS was created by a Finland guy in 1992 http://www.clarin.com/diario/2007/07/28/um/m-01467034.htm and he was not even a full employee from the company he worked for... No one knows what happened to him... Probably he was fired in a reduction in force... Capitalism is al about corruption, not making people happy...

opensparc.net is a great idea/site. To be a full hit it needs to add all the info to create a 100% clone of te T1000 recently announced. If Sun managed to do this, they will have both, a 100% open source OS and a 100% open source hardware... it will be dificult for Linux to beat this combination.
If the real spirit behind Linux/GPL is to be able to be Freedom (Free is the exact word, but there's the obvious "free as in beer" problem), then Sun is the only choice, due to Linux beeing tied to a propietary architecure as x86 (Google for "Intel sues AMD" and you will understand why x86 is propietary).

/**/ There are several markets that can be attcked just by avoiding using common paradigms. The more exposed one is the car market.
Mainly every single car maker is making cars far more expensive that what they should be, and even worse, they are creating unreliable cars as long as we keep buying them. As exposed in "The Inovators Dilemmna" there are very simple things that you can change ata given market that will have huge impact on sales.
/**/ For cars, a really easy and cheap thing to do would be to add a second lamp to every ligth (stop ligths in particulary), to help the driver avoid an infraction becouse one is them is dead. This is the simple kind of things that car makers don't think of becouse their minds are dominated by many years of tradition. The solution is simple to brake free from that. Cars that are refrigerated using presurized water can take temperature for over 90Celsius thus improving eficiency. The only reason this is notdone is becouse originally cars that used water as a cooler, didn't have a presirized system. This, in turn meant that when the temperature went over 100Celsius you would end up with a real big proble (pipes exploding, etc.). Technology have improve a lot since then, and nowadays a standar fuel engine can ride at about 120Celsius without any change. As a precaution a good idea would be to use 3 termostats instead oof just one. You add a simple circuit that takes the 3 reading. When one of them differ, it discards tha value and report the problem to the driver so the car can be taken to a service station.
/**/ Other simple evolution that car makers are resisting is electric vehicules. Simply put, there's no place where to buy a simple design 2 seater electric car. Clearly, Corbin Sparrow (http://www.corbinmotors.com/products_sparrow1.html) is a great idea with a really bad price tag. What we need to learn from the Sparrow is that a 3 wheels vehicule is not a car, so you don't need to pass crash test nor any kind of expensive certification.
You can get a couple of cheap (under U$S 250 each) scooters from http://www.electric-scooters-electric-scooters.com/ (the Volt Electric Scooter seems to be the best price/performer http://www.electric-scooters-electric-scooters.com/program/fixedPriceMod.cfm?do=detail&productID=66&categoryID=8) , remove one of the front wheels, add a plexiglass floor to join them and a plexiglass canopy for the ceiling and you have a small cheap car that can ride for 12 miles without recharging (at lest, one Scooter alone can do 12 miles, probably you can go much further using both). This will cost you far less than U$S1000, something no car maker has dare to do (thoug they can). If you want longer autonomy, you can add a couple of flexible solar panels (http://www.sailnet.com/store/item.cfm?pid=12106 or http://www.solar-electric.com/usf-32.html or http://www.solar-electric.com/solar-panels-flexible---specialty.html) on the roof of the car. With that you can charge the battery in about 12 hours of continous Sun exposure. It will cost you between U$S300-500. Not really that expensive.

/**/ Unfortunatelly for the world, USA, Horst Kohler and the hole IMF are against globalization. Mister Kohler is right when he said on march 9 2003 that "... globalization is a crucial engine of growth ..." (http://www.imf.org/external/np/speeches/2003/030903.htm) but his actions goes against what he says. Not USA nor mister Kohler want the world to become one grat nation. The only way to reduce misery and poverty is trhough globalization. We need to be able to sell everything we want without any customs fee, we need to be able to travel to any part of the world without any "inmigration office" restriction (criminal screening must be perform nevertheless), we need to use one and only one currency (Euro is the best choice, since it's not control by only one despotic country).
/**/ What's also very important for such an effort is to have a common world-wide TAX law. I firmly belive that the only thing that need to be TAXed is capital. It is really easy to control. Just check every bank account, every house, every car, every boat, etc find the owner, and request from him the corresponding receipt. If you combine this with 0% TAX for everything else (particulary profit and revenue), you will force money flow. Simply put, if money stay still (in the bank or in a unused house) it will erode, if it's used to generate more money (investments, new companies, etc) and they work out fine, this money will grow without any TAX on the grow itself, only to the new capital. This is the single most important measure for a TAX policy of any country. This even works for corrupt countries. In those cases, inspectors will request for the corresponding receipts to capital owners, just to be able to make some fraudulent money, to avoid this, capital owners have only one choice but to paid.

Just replace all that with a standar PC (nice new cage) with a standar OS (Linux with filesystem encryption is a great chioce) that has all the films you are currently charging for. New films are sent trhough a dedicated encrypted channel using FTP, and old ones are deleted following channel rules.

/**/ The BBC reported, scientists working at the Institute for Genome Research in Maryland announced that they believe they have found the essence of life - at least on a genetic level - which comes down to about 300 genes.
