In a recent business trip to Miami connected through Atlanta I experienced the new In-Flight Entertainment Systems (IFEs) available at selected Delta flights. They let you enjoy games and on-demand audio and video contents. All in all it makes your flight shorter, which makes a difference for the more than 10 hours that takes BCN-ATL.
I observed that it was based on Linux, as one of the units in the next seats row happened to reboot now and then showing the typical penguin screen, and seemed to allow some kind of networking too.
Back at home, I’ve done some search and it is build by Panasonic Avionics, based, in fact, on Red Hat Linux. And looks like they have plans to make it grow.
Virgin America has a similar product called RED.
With factors as Pay-per-View and networking, and being this a growing trend, expect some “things” happening in this environment midterm.

If you deploy a report and when you try to open it on Report Manager you get:
An internal error occurred on the report server. See the error log for more details.(rsInternalError)
Invalid object name ‘ReportServerTempDB.dbo.PersistedStream’”
You open SQL Server Management Studio and… the database is not there!. You do not give credit and issue:
USE ReportServerTempDB;”
And you get:
Could not locate entry in sysdatabases for database ‘ReportServerTempDB’. No entry found with that name.”
You look at the /Data directory and the files are there…
Then this may help you:

Me han notificado el resultado del examen de CISA y he aprobado.
Son buenas noticias por partida doble:
- He aprobado el examen
- Casi no estudié, así que el resultado debe provenir de mi experiencia profesional
Esta última es una buena noticia para mí porqué quiere decir que he estado trabajando bien durante los últimos años, al menos según los estándares de ISACA.
Y son buenas noticias también para la certificación, ya que implica que el conocimiento que se requiere para conseguirla no es en absoluto arbitrario.
Ahora sólo me queda terminar el papeleo para la acreditación de experiencia y pagar las cuotas.
This is a world where massive amounts of data and applied mathematics replace every other tool that might be brought to bear. Out with every theory of human behavior, from linguistics to sociology. Forget taxonomy, ontology, and psychology. Who knows why people do what they do? The point is they do it, and we can track and measure it with unprecedented fidelity. With enough data, the numbers speak for themselves.”
Those days I’ve found some references to what’s called “Science 2.0″.
Starting with this more conservative approach, to this radical one, being inspiring, to me they all present a fancy position.
Read this and this to get things into context.
What’s next? Are you guys going to state that P=NP because we can use “The Cloud” as the oracle in an Oracle Turing Machine?
Give me a break!
2. Conforme el párrafo b) del apartado 7 del artículo 25 de la Ley de Propiedad Intelectual y a los efectos en él previstos se entiende por «disco duro de ordenador» el dispositivo de almacenamiento magnético de un ordenador en el que se aloja el sistema operativo de dicho ordenador, al cual está conectado con carácter permanente, de forma que éste solo y exclusivamente pueda servir de disco maestro o del sistema en el sentido de que su conexión sólo le permite adoptar esa funcionalidad y no la de disco esclavo.”

Me gustaría preguntarle a quién ha perpetrado semejante redacción a que “cosa” en concreto se estaba refiriendo, yo no conozco nada que concuerde con esa definición.
Ahora, que quizás se refiere a eso, a nada, al conjunto vacío.
Considero motivo de reflexión para los responsables que se cuele un redactado tan nefasto, absurdo y deficiente en una Orden Ministerial.
El perito judicial Sr. Anguas pudo constatar, por la documentación suministrada por la propia demandada y por las contestaciones a los requerimientos realizados a TELEFÓNICA y SINERGYNE GLOBAL COMUNICATION, que las descargas de fonogramas realizadas desde alguna (sic) de los referidos sitos Web de la demandada fueron 2.086 (ff. 888 y ss.).”
He encontrado por casualidad esta sentencia de la sección 15 de la Audiencia Provincial de Barcelona en la que se hace referencia a un informe pericial mío.
Con frecuencia una vez entregado el informe y tras la vista pierde uno el contacto con el caso.
When you monitor a set of servers using MOM, the Operator Console focus you on doing: having the alerts solved and the cattle happy and healthy.
But one day comes when you want to know more that do.
Do not you try to extract knowledge from the Operator Console as it hopefully only keeps some days of data, normally too few to extract relevant conclusions.
Then there’s the Reporting Console. You’d better match your need to know with the predefined reports, because it does not have a report creation tool as some may expect.
You can, of course, create a Reporting Solution on Visual Studio 2005/2008 and then integrate it into the Reporting Console (see here for a good example).
But once you have to dive into the MOM database, don’t you want to take a deep breath and get to the bottom of it?
Don’t you want to query MOM?
This may help the hero in you.

But it’s cool if take you it to Apple, because if your brokeass iPhone does become a refurb for some discount-seeking soul, Apple scrubs it to the bone, right? Nope. Using a standard forensic toolkit (or probably just some decent quasi-hacking), your personal data can be recovered from a refurb”
