Así Tapachula ayer….

Una forma fácil de:

  • Tener al pueblo entretenido y feliz para que no den lata.
  • Hacer que el pueblo pague por el entretenimiento (entradas, comida o suscripción a un canal de paga o club).
  • Jóvenes que prefieren apuntarle a ser jugador de futbol en lugar de desarrollar habilidades que darán mas fruto a su país.

No digo que el futbol sea cosa del demonio, pero vamos, ganaron, chido, felicitaciones, y bueno, lo que sigue.

Mexico is one of those magical places where you can get 8 hamburgers for $16 USD…

Thanks to our shitty economy where society have to lower it’s prices in order to have a sell. I know it could be familiar to have a 2  or 3 dollar burger in 1st world countries, but honestly, I’ve got 4 tortas (like a hamburger), and 4 hotdogs for just $160 MXN (less than  8 USD), and all my family have a meal!.

Don’t get me wrong, they were perfect, they were delicious… and the price is what we are used to. I would likely pay more for them if (again) our shitty economy were a bit better. read more

GitLab Web IDE now open source

Useful for quick edits, maybe not a full featured IDE (I don’t know why it is called Web IDE instead of Web CodeEditor or something…) because it lacks of several features of the complete IDE, for instance you cannot do debugging in it, just an editor but still useful.

I like the idea that this “web IDE” is Open Source, is available for everyone and it will be integrated in many other parts of gitlab.

Tiro de gracia a contribuyentes, el SAT va tras tarjetazos

Así que básicamente lo que propone el SAT es que dejes de usar tarjetas o te friegan mas… La verdad que no creo que lo que hace el Servicio de Administración Tributaria sea correcto. Si bien lo presentan como una forma de aplicar impuestos a quienes los evaden, también se pasan llevando por las patas a quienes no lo hacen.

Y vamos siendo honestos, hay impuestos por todo.. Si compro una antena, un aparato eléctrico, si compro X cosa generalmente hay un impuesto, vaya, incluso en la gasolina hay 3 impuestos y que son impuestos sobre impuestos. read more

Trying iOS 11.3 beta 2… getting back a. Bit of the speed

I see iOS 11 like Windows Vista / 8 were to Windows 7/10, the unfinished version of the OS. The banana product.. send it green, let it mature in customers hands.

iOS 11.3 seems to give back the speed of my old iPad mini (2nd gen), the keyboard was specially laggy and I presume it was the OS under powering the CPU. Now it is quite more responsive, although I don’t see any option in the battery section (settings) like in the iPhone.

I think I’ll be fine with a two year period between “mayor” os updates if that period brings really finish, polished OS. read more

Big news.. you can message from your computer… wait, wasn’t that the former way to do that??

With all this mobile thing many companies just refused to support computers as part of their “multi platform “ strategy, Android and iOS is their main target and is something that grind my gears… most popular IM services does not have a native app for the desktop. Sometimes just a web baked interface… sometimes not even that.

Could Google finally be getting serious about taking on iMessage?

Apple HomePod review  // A downgraded Siri with really nice speakers that plays only from Apple Sources

Although I’m pretty sure people is going to buy this thing, I bet it will be more like the big Apple book, expensive and not worth it.

I think something like this would be better: Kaiser MSA-7908BTE Kit de Bafle Amplificador Inalámbrico con Bluetooth y Micrófono, 4,200 W, color negro

I mean, why you would get a speaker?. To listen to Music/movies, and lets face it, Apple is not the main source of them. Spotify is the king of music streaming, YouTube is the king of video streaming, but HomePod have no integration with them. read more
