Yes, you’ve read it right. I’ve not mistaken the subject. PHP.net is migrating to SVN. From CVS. Well, I don’t know if I have to laugh or to cry. Meanwhile I make a decision, I will comfort myself watching again Linus introducing Git at Google. The video follows.
You, exactly, you out there, that keep building password-strength checkers that suggests one should user punctuation, numbers, lower case, upper case, camel case, etc. etc. You: go back to school and do your math.
I don’t assume anyone to be constantly looking at my CV to see how it changes, so I thought I’d share this. I honestly don’t know what you are going to make of it and whether or not you are going to like the idea, but as you can see in the picture above, the [...]
Technical Debt is something whose repercussions are underestimated more often than not. Without managing and/or preventing technical debt in your project, you could soon end up with a codebase that is no longer maintainable/extendable. It is not much different to taking care of your own car. You can probably reach your destination 15000KM away without [...]
Whatever this algorithm they use is, it surely must be based on the contributions they can track based on your drupal.org profile. Although it kind of makes sense, it’s only fair to say it’s not 100% just. I mean, I’ve been working with Drupal quite a long time know, since the good old Drupal 4.5. [...]
Hello all. Just a quick heads-up to tell you all that I’ve officially release a module I initially developed when I was back at The Economist: SSL Proxy. Released for both Drupal 6 and Drupal 7.

As per the Paywall, it’s been sitting there for ages: unfortunately it requires quite some time to be purged of some stuff that [...]

A few months ago Blip.tv decided, out of the blue, to delete my account on their site. The motivation provided was, I quote, «I’m sorry, but we’ve had to remove your account from blip.tv because we determined that you were posting videos that didn’t belong to you. Sometimes when we find this we just remove [...]
Time for updates on my Software page. First, it changed name in a more generic Projects. Most important, I am moving away from using this website for hosting packages and projects’ pages. The only project still fully hosted here is Support Vector Clustering, everything else has moved away: Drupal projects on drupal.org, WordPress contribs on [...]
Two days ago I decided to support the Associazione Drupal Italia (Drupal Italia Association), subscribing and becoming a supporter member. This is to support the guys back in my country who really are dedicated to this platform. Hopefully this association is going to make the Italian Drupal community stronger and larger, and I also hope [...]
Oh, so you’re in the git camp too. Interesting…
Yep, I’ve been recently approaching to it, because I can’t stand SVN anymore. It’s the only serious open source SCM, and not just because it’s distributed.
