A milestone in my life of software engineering, today I entered the magical world of Cloud Computing. I own my Virtual Private Server, leaving behind the cumbersome limitations of the usual web-hosting services.

Tudományos vizsgálatok mutatták ki hogy a hangyák tudnak számolni.
Ugyanis, hogyan tájékozódnak a hangyák? Azt tanultuk az iskolában hogy szagokkal jelölik meg az utat, amelyen társaik eljuthatnak az élelemhez, és ők maguk visszatalálnak a bolyhoz.

Fiam öt éves, még javában a mese-korszakában. Alkalomadtán, mikor épp nincs mesekönyv a kezünk ügyében, és már unalomig meséltük a jól ismert kedvenceket, megkér hogy találjunk ki egy új mesét.
