The No Title^® Tech Blog

When doing software or web development, you should have your code (and even other kinds of files) managed by a version control system, so that you are able to backup meaningful changes, checkout a file from a previous version, or collaborate with your team more efficiently. Over the years there have been some tools that serve for this purpose, but these days Git seems to be the most popular version tracking system.

And now, for something different, I have just dived into Java. I am sharing with you the first (pre-)release of Nice Telescope Planner, a simple cross-platform desktop utility for amateur astronomy hobbyists, written in Java. The aim is to provide an easy to use tool to help planning sky observation sessions, suggesting some of the interesting objects you may be able to watch at naked eye, or using amateur equipment (binoculars or small to medium size telescopes) in a given date/time and place.

This is the tutorial I wish I had around some years ago, when I first tried to learn how to use Vim. If you’re just beginning to know this amazing text editor, please keep reading, I am writing this tutorial right for you!

This is a book written while having in mind those who already have some object-oriented programming background but are willing to get into Python and (especially) Artificial Intelligence and Data Science.

Do you know that nice feeling that comes from getting a mission accomplished? There is nothing like watching some of our work come to life.

Going through a moment of change in my life, I have decided to redesign my other website, using Pelican and other open source tools.
