Marry Christmas
My hearty well-wishes to all who celebrates Christmas today. Wish all the best to all of you and your families. P.S. as I live in an a orthodox country we celebrate it in January.
One week in the USA or between San Francisco and LA.
It’s really unbelievable that sometimes even the wildest dreams come true and I had a chance to visit the USA and spent a whole week from the 10th till the 17th of November. After quite a long flight, roughly 13 hours, we landed in LA airport safe and sound, took a quick connection flight to […]
Is technical support worth its money? Not so sure.
I can’t stop wondering why the absolute majority of all support requests I or my colleagues have dealt with in the past were treated, let’s say, in a strange way. The vendor would fight, yes fight, very hard in attempt to defend itself and redirect the blame on the customer or another vendor if that […]
Work hard and it would pay off.
Surprisingly, how a long and productive day could turn all upside down and make me fill contended and refreshed even when the previous day brought a body of disappointment.
Even after 30 you could be a good student

Bye-bye google reader
After Google had introduced an updated version of the Reader and deliberately turned it into a clunky, shitty and hard on the eyes application, I decided to pack my bag and move all my feeds to www.newsblur.com. As far as I could tell this is the best Google Reader replacement and I could find. It’s […]
WordPress from iPhone
Gosh! Almost two months have passed from my last post and I didn’t have time to write a single word after that. I even had to install a wordpress application on my iPhone in hope it would help to me to update the blog more frequently. I’m not complaining and to tell the truth that […]
New position
After three years at CBOSS it’s time to seek for something new. The time I’ve spent working as Unix engineer were indeed fruitful and very positive and I don’t regret a second. I’ve met incredible people and have learned awfully a lot during this period. But now I’m turing a page a moving forward. At […]
