Saw Once Upon a Time in Mexico at the cinema last Friday. Not bad, even funny, but Desperado (1995) was much better (thanks to Steve Buscemi and Quentin Tarantino). Fortunately, Depp's performance was solid (memorable CIA t-shirt :)).

Learnt some parts of C# and, as a usual exercise, wrote a simple stack and queues implementation. Now I am writing (just for fun ;) a simple RPN calculator with variables and function definitions. All on my home page. Today I also discovered a silly bug in Mono, which makes Ahead-of-time compilation disabled while using mono foo.exe instead of mono ./foo.exe (of course after doing previous mono --aot foo.exe). At the beginning I couldn't find the reason for this strange behavior, but lupus on #mono pointed me the solution.

Today I downloaded GNU Hurd image for Bochs. At last! Now I must find a real machine where I will be able to try GNU/Hurd as a native OS. Check out my homepage (hurd) to see the screenshots with Hurd running under Bochs.

Released a fresh new memory testing tool, designed as a wrapper around the standard libc memory allocation routines malloc, calloc, realloc, and free. It is called IMM and it's licensed under the LGPL.
