De Alto Cedro voy para Marcané
Luego a Cueto voy para Mayarí
 
El cariño que te tengo
Yo no lo puedo negar
Se me sale la babita
Yo no lo puedo evitar
 
Cuando Juanica y Chan Chan
En el mar cernían arena
Como sacudía el jibe
A Chan Chan le daba pena
 
Limpia el camino de pajas
Que yo me quiero sentar
En aquel tronco que […]

Like almost all the Tunisians, I learned typing on an AZERTY French keyboard. Two months ago I got a U.S QWERTY with Arabic letters and decided to switch to it for:

It’s standard

Well, regarding special characters, I have hacked on configuration files so that I can […]

 On m’a raconté cette anecdote, je ne suis pas sûr de sa crédibilité, mais elle m’a fait tellement rire.
Un ancien militant nationaliste (qui a donc combattu contre l’occupation française) avait l’habitude de faire la sieste dans un endroit isolé à Gafsa, au calme et au frais. Un jour, lors de son sommeil, une équipe […]

Here’s a funny script file that may be ran as a C/C++, PHP, Perl, Python, Tcl and Shell script. It’s a simple “Hello world” file, but a great artwork.

Found out an interesting website that lists alternative dictionaries in almost all the languages.
“Slang, profanities, insults and vulgarisms from all the world”

Any given program costs more and takes longer.
If any program is useful, it will have to be changed.
If a program is useless, it will have to be documented.
Any given program will expand to fill all available memory.
The value of a program is proportional […]

 
Lagoon on the island of Djerba, Governorate of Médenine, Tunisia (N 33°48’-E 10°54’).
Low, flat Djerba, its highest point 50 meters (165 feet) above sea level, is none other than the ancient Phoenician, then Roman, island of Meninx: the mythical “Island of the Lotus-eaters” that Ulysses was so reluctant to leave. Despite frequent foreign incursions, the […]

Cancionero de Mercedes Sosa
 
Del cincuenta y cinco
es la chacarera
que mordiendo sueños
nos roba la noche entera.
 
Para los cantores,
para los cocheros,
pa’ los quemadores
que brotan en mostradores.
 
Ha nació pa’l grito

madurada aloja
que vuela desde una copla.
 
Que me nombre el vino
que viene lento,
que me […]

During a tournament one day, Latvian chess master Aron Nimzowitsch complained that his opponent had laid an unlit cigar on the table beside the board. The director pointed out that the man was not in fact smoking. “Yes,” replied Nimzowitsch, “but he is threatening to smoke, and any fool knows that the threat is […]
