I am a hacker, enter my world...

Poco claros son mis recuerdos de la noches en vela, el sabor a cafeina y cigarro por la mañana mezcla de paranoia y emocion, cuanto daria por regresar a esa ventana de amaneceres y puestas de sol, ver encendido ese monitor mientras el mundo era solo murmullos en la calle y mi universo codigo y lineas de comando.

Donde se perdio? ... o mejor dicho , donde lo deje, por que lo cambie?

tal vez sea momento de sentirlo de nuevo.

I am a hacker, enter my world...

Mine is a world that begins with school... I'm smarter than most of the other kids, this crap they teach us bores me...

Damn underachiever. They're all alike.

I'm in junior high or high school. I've listened to teachers explain for the fifteenth time how to reduce a fraction. I understand it. "No, Ms. Smith, I didn't show my work. I did it in my head..."

Damn kid. Probably copied it. They're all alike.

I made a discovery today. I found a computer. Wait a second, this is cool. It does what I want it to. If it makes a mistake, it's because I screwed it up. Not because it doesn't like me... Or feels threatened by me... Or thinks I'm a smart ass... Or doesn't like teaching and shouldn't be here...

Damn kid. All he does is play games. They're all alike.

And then it happened... a door opened to a world... rushing through the phone line like heroin through an addict's veins, an electronic pulse is sent out, a refuge from the day-to-day incompetencies is sought... a board is found.

"This is it... this is where I belong..."

I know everyone here... even if I've never met them, never talked to them, may never hear from them again... I know you all...

Damn kid. Tying up the phone line again. They're all alike...

You bet your ass we're all alike... we've been spoon-fed baby food at school when we hungered for steak... the bits of meat that you did let slip through were pre-chewed and tasteless. We've been dominated by sadists, or ignored by the apathetic. The few that had something to teach found us willing pupils, but those few are like drops of water in the desert.

This is our world now... the world of the electron and the switch, the beauty of the baud. We make use of a service already existing without paying for what could be dirt-cheap if it wasn't run by profiteering gluttons, and you call us criminals. We explore... and you call us criminals. We seek after knowledge... and you call us criminals. We exist without skin color, without nationality, without religious bias... and you call us criminals.

You build atomic bombs, you wage wars, you murder, cheat, and lie to us and try to make us believe it's for our own good, yet we're the criminals.

Yes, I am a criminal. My crime is that of curiosity. My crime is that of judging people by what they say and think, not what they look like. My crime is that of outsmarting you, something that you will never forgive me for.

I am a hacker, and this is my manifesto. You may stop this individual, but you can't stop us all... after all, we're all alike.

[UAA] Congreso Estatal de Ciencias de la Computacion

Mil gracias a la Universidad Autonoma de Aguascalientes por la atenta invitacion a participar como conferencista en el Congreso Estatal de Ciencias de la Computacion, siempre es muy estimulante estar en contacto con gente en los ultimos años de carrera y escuchar sus dudas e inquietudes. Espero que esta breve introduccion a .NET les sea de utilidad.

Microsoft hace justicia con nueva certificacion

Para aquellos IT Pros que creemos firmemente en el valor de una certificacion, Microsoft anuncia una nueva certificacion dirigida exclusivamente a "High Level IT Pros" ya que dicha credencial estara disponible solo para aquellos que demuestren de forma real ser expertos en el area de Arquitectura de soluciones, dicha certificacion manejada hasta este momento bajo el nombre de la iniciativa "Microsoft Certified Architect Program" propone nuevos esquemas de evaluacion para demostrar el nivel de dominio... Mencione que estoy ansioso de conocer mas detalles respecto a esta certificacion Board Level ??

I'm the Architect

Despues de algunas semanas fuera del aire por causas de fuerza mayor, decidi regresar con una nueva nota para darle su merecido lugar al malinterpretado rol de Arquitecto de Software, segun Steven P. Davis, Vice Presidente de Tecnologias de Informacion de Walt Disney Studios, durante una conferencia en el Software Architecture Summit define al Arquitecto de Software como un Rol que integra y asegura diferentes procesos y areas,sin duda el rol del arquitecto es dificil de definir pues demanda un alto grado de especializacion tecnica sin olvidar por supuesto la experiencia en el desarrollo e integracion de soluciones que ademas de ser generadas bajo determinados lineamientos funcionales como objetivo primario deben asegurar el proveer valor agregado al negocio.
