My mind is definetly a masochist. Each four months, in other words, each time I have an exam session, I get the most fabolous Ideas. Products, experiments, devices, images, projects, they just spawn in my mind like bakteria in old yoghurt. I assume it has something to do with the fact that I have to concentrate a lot and thus my brain gets.. ehm.. ?used? more.. but it’s kind of annoying that I have this ideas always when I can’t do anything useful with them. Apparently my mind likes to hurt itself with those fantastic ideas that it can’t use, and that it will forget in some days.. and it likes to distract me from studying, thus increasing my frustration to enormous levels.
Il mio cervello é chiaramente un masochista. Puntualmente per ogni sessione di esami inizia a sfornare idee sopra idee, tutte cose geniali che peró richiedono molto tempo e che dimenticheró entro pochi giorni. Ma la mia mente proprio ama la frustrazione, eh?
Mein Gehirn liebt es ganz eindeutig, sich selbst zu quälen, indem es puönktlich zu jeder Prüfungs-Saison tausende extellente Ideen hat, die mich vom studieren abhalten, aber nicht umsetzbar sind, weil grad Prüfungen sind. Ist dass nicht toll? Lieben wir nicht alle so ein gehirn?
Y po iel monc mo che for avisa can che on ejams, dato che, coche dit desseura, son plu frustra, son plu sauri da dessene, y l medemo vel enghe per iseth, per chel sons suenz enghe a strite te chij tempes. Ala fin di conc uel chel di che mpara veniel scialdi manco de chel che mussesan..

I am currently learning Ruby on Rails (since two weeks or so). I used to work in php since some years, and now I’m relearning everything from scratch. One of the big helps after you learned the basics is certainly railscast, a set of screen casts (I started on episode one last Wednesday:D). I’ve seen that they have a contest running ’till.. tomorrow! The contest is to give 5 tips about ruby on rails. Since I just started, I’ll give 5 advices to start with ruby on rails if you already know a bit about programming, and start good:
1)Set up a good development environment
2)Choose a project and start
3)Improve performance each time it’s possible
4)Don’t think how to make it work, think how to break it.
5)Don’t reinvent the wheel.
1)Install ruby, install rails, choose a editor(and here i recommend: Textmate(MacOsX)/Gedit(Linux)/E-TextEditor(Windows) for efficient productivity(If you don’t belive me, watch some screencast where somebody develops in Textmate, and be impressed), Eclipse for a full bloated IDE).
2)Don’t spend months reading books, tutorials, etc. Start right away, write code, even if it’s just another blog engine, make mistakes, learn from them and in parallel read the books, watch the screencasts, etc..
3)Use Fastcgi,LightTPD, memcache(maybe with cache_fu), try to go to the db only when necessary, and remember:a join is better then two selects, AND nothing is worse then operations on large amount of data.
4)Think secure from the beginning: if possible, use ssl(ALSO FOR THE LOGIN), store ip addresses in the cookies(and check it each time), create new sessions when people log in, install the Csrf_killer plugin (and use it), escape user input and use WhiteListHelper. And DO NOT USE mass assignment.
5)Before you write any code, look up if someone already made something like it. Even if you don’t find exactly what you want, try to adapt something already present. With some pre-made plugins/generators, you have already some iterations of testing, of securing, etc. behind you.
Ok, I just started, the tips are just what I recommend you: I know they’re nearly not worth the class of the railscasts, but maybe they match the quality of this Blog.
Italian and German version will follow tomorrow, so stay tuned
Ok, per prendere appunti, per tenere traccia dei progetti, e per tutte le altre cavolate che mi passano per la testa, ho deciso di provare una tecnica che ho giá sentito da molta gente: Scrittori, Programmatori, Esperti di sicurezza, Bla bla bla, …
Vi presento la mia wiki: wiki.ramsesoriginal.org
Ci sará una scco di caos e poco di concreto, ma mi serverá come blocco note per un po tutto quello che faccio. Se magari volete aggiungere/cambiare qualcosa, siete i benvenuti 
Spero di ritrovare il tempo perso. Mandato a quel paese il vecchio capo (mi spiace un po per i collaboratori), ho inizato un lavoro invernale presso un noleggio di sci. Finalmente ho un po di tempo libero (in cambio rinnuncio al fine settimana e alle ferie, visto che il lavoro é in Val Gardena. Infatti, per chi non lo sapesse, io abito a bolzano da domenica sera a venerdí sera. Invece sabato domenica sono in val gardena)
Ok, spero di potere finalmente riprendere a scrivere un po piú spesso. Inoltre spero di potere riprendere a programmare piú attivamente, e a riprendere il lavoro “creativo (fotografia, disegno, illustrazione, pittura, scrittura, video, musica, etc..)”
Quindi, rieccomi!
p.s. Ho visto che raggiungo le 600 visite giornaliere. Heh. Grazie a tutti. cercheró di scrivere di piú sulle tematiche piú richieste.
p.p.s. Iseth, mi manchi!
