…not in a world where “covariant type T occurs in contravariant position”.

According to this website I should apply as experienced esthetist.

I am registered since many years to StepStone (www.StepStone.it), a website to find jobs.

Well, after a lot of time I received an e-mail, suggesting me to apply for job more than 100 Km far away from my home as a Call-center operator with experience (which I have not in that field).

It seems to me that many of those websites perform badly and some others perform awfully.

I mean, if 10 years from now, when you are doing something quick and dirty, you suddenly visualize that I am looking over your shoulders and say to yourself “Dijkstra would not have liked this”, well, that would be enough immortality for me.

In these days I started my new job as research assistant at Politecnico di Torino.
And I rellay enjoy it, I am learning a lot.

Some days ago I had a little talk on Xtext at JUG Torino. It is now available online at http://www.parleys.com/#st=5&sl=1&id=1884.

In the meantime I started working at Politecnico di Torino as Research Assistant.

I am liking it very much.

Today I achieved my master degree in Computer Engineering at the Politecnico di Torino with 105 points out of 110.

Today I finished the first draft of my thesis titled “Model-driven development for multi-layer enterprise architectures” (well, it is written in Italian so actually the title is “Model-driven development per architetture software enterprise multi-livello”).

I also started play with EGit, the Eclips plugin for using Git.

And finally I re-started submitting German words in my Mnemosyne. I started with some words from the song 99 Luftballoons. The lyrics from the German version is so much better than the English version. And the last words… cool song.

I just went through this tutorial to realize a simple Eclipse plugin.

I am now pretty proud of MyUselessPlugin.

It is so good to be passionate about what I am doing.

Or maybe I am just raving because I am too tired after all the work on my master’s thesis.

Who knows.
