Last day at EuroBSDCon

Last day of the EuroBSDCon 2014 conference (ok, there are only two days anyway :)) with all three tracks as yesterday, another keynote and the closing session where the next EuroBSDCon host is traditionally announced.

Like yesterday, I only chaired some talks so I’m going to talk only about the ones I followed.

EuroBSDCon Conference begins!

Very busy day today at the EuroBSDCon 2014 conference in Sofia, Bulgaria as I had to chair one entire track from morning to evening.

That means assuring the speakers are there on time, introducing each of them in a few words and managing questions after the talk is finished (while managing the time of course).

SF&F 2013 discovery: Lindsay Buroker

It is no secret that I like Science Fiction & Fantasy (my Goodreads profile shows that :)) and I like classical authors such as

Michael Moorcock ,

Isaac Asimov and of course

J. R. R. Tolkien . I’m not reading only these of course and my list of authors has been growing over the years.

One genre I’ve been reading into lately is

Steampunk which mix steam-powered machinery with special things such as post-apocalyptic world or magic.

J'ai mal

J’ai mal.

Je ne comprends plus ces députés, ce pays, ces ministres et ce Président, pour lequel j’ai pourtant voté en avril 2012, voulant bouter N. Sarkozy de la place suprême, ne le supportant plus.

Oh, je n’espérais pas énormément de F. Hollande, ses années à la tête du Parti socialiste n’étant pas de nature à rassurer mais virer Sarkozy était l’objectif primordial. Je m’attendais à un président aussi mou que J. Chirac lors de son deuxième mandat.

Mais je ne m’attendais pas à ÇA.
