New theme for Detronizator.org: FreshApple
After only 2 days of intense work/playing (…) with the theme Fresh by iLEMONed, I completed my new theme, FreshApple.
What do you think about it?
P.S. Besides, I have updated Wordpress to 2.1. Speed improvement and few new features. Nothing else.

Why iPhone still ruleZ
about 3 weeks ago - 5 comments
I’m going to make a simple point. And because people that know me think I’m a “unfair-Google-aficionado-that-doesn’t-see-how-evil-Google-is”, I’m going to use Android as victim here.
iPhone ruleZ
Other OS? I’m not even taking into consideration old stuff like Symbian: is just too easy to trash it now-days (Qt is a whole different story though).
Android is great… for [...]
Binary Tree Rebuilder

Imagine you have a Binary Tree, with those characteristics:
Nodes do not respect any order relation – In other words: it’s not a Binary Search Tree of any kind
Every node appears once and only once within the tree
A nice Binary Tree
Then, your little brother passes by your desk and, to upset you, deletes the tree from [...]
Serverless chat to reduce office distance
about 1 month ago - 6 comments
This idea comes out for an old university-time idea: to write a serverless chat application. Of course, I’m aware of the complications and the problems that using Broadcasting could create, so this problems would be took in consideration by design.
But why now? I was thinking of a way to reduce the “office distances”: making easy [...]
iPad Simulator in Video and Comments

I would have just posted it on Twitter, but I have some comments about this video.
One of the first video of the iPad Simulator
Watch it in Full screen at 720p: it help “feeling” the proportions used by Apple in the UI
It clarify how it does execute iPhone apps: they most probably implement the iPhone API [...]
“Bidirectionally multiplied” array
about 1 month ago - No comments
Another small problem before I go to sleep tonight:
There is an array A[N] of N numbers.
You have to compose an array Output[N] such that Output[i] will be equal
to multiplication of all the elements of A[N] except A[i].
For example Output[0] will be multiplication of A[1] to A[N-1] and Output[1]
will be multiplication of A[0] and from A[2] [...]
Use Backtracking to print all Subsets
about 1 month ago - No comments
I’m “studying” this algorithmic technique: Backtracking. This is an algorithmic approach to problem solution that I trust every good Computer Scientist already uses; but taking a good theo-practical look at it is something better.

I believe you can find enough informations about it online (the 2 links I provided are more than enough), so [...]
Money change problem: Greedy vs. Dyn.Pro.
about 1 month ago - 7 comments
This is a classical problem of Computer Science: it’s used to study both Greedy and Dynamic Programming algorithmic techniques.
I hate having my pocket full of copper!!! -_-
Definition
Given:
A set of n Denominations D[0...n-1] in ascending order, representing a Monetary Coin System
An money amount A, as input
calculate a solution:
S[0...n-1], with 0 <= S[i] <= (A/S[i]) and 0 [...]
Calculate abs(int) without branching
about 2 months ago - 4 comments
For this you need someone to teach it to you: if you made it yourself, then you are a very good Comp-Sci, and you should send your CV to Google ASAP.
Without branching O_o?
Yes, without using any “if ( a < 0 )…”. To do that, you need to refresh how Two’s Complement works, [...]
Pascal’s Triangle generator
about 2 months ago - No comments
What’s Pascal’s Triangle? That’s what it is (Wikipedia has all the theory, if you need).
Pascal’s Triangle first 6 rows
The thing I wrote here is a generator of the n-th row of the triangle, that doesn’t use more then the memory needed to store the solution. Instead of allocating a Triangular Matrix, and building every row [...]
String search in O(n + m)
about 2 months ago - 2 comments
Searching a string inside another string is a very easy task. Given a string A and a string B, start a loop over A from left to right and, for every letter, start an internal loop to see if there is a match with the letters of B.

Tutto questo colore, bello….ripetimi un pò a cosa è duvuto??
about 3 years ago
…uno shock! Ma molto molto carino. Decisamente migliore di quel vecchio colore un po’ troppo serio e cupo.
uhm…bravo!

Decisamente meglio.
E’ fixed width, ma almeno è piacevole agli occhi.
Bocciato il logo, soprattutto la scritta Detronizator.org con tutto quell’alone verdastro intorno. Non si incastona bene nello sfondo nonostante la combinazione di colori sia giusta.
Appunto: forse volevi scrivere “Life?” invece di “Life!”.
O no?

@nemo: No, volevo proprio scrivere così!

Sicuramente più ordinato del precedente, molto piacevole la combinazione di colori, le icone e il layout in generale. Quoto nemo: quell’effetto sul logo stona tantissimo, IMHO.

@Sbatman & @Nemo: Ci stavo pensando, ma devo ancora capire con cosa sostituirlo.
Per coerenza con la barra blue superiore, pensavo a un effetto lucido sulla scritta, ma sempre dello stesso “verde alien”.

Un po’ meglio.
Forse è l’ombra sotto la scritta che stona.
E poi la scritta “Life bla bla” stona così attaccata.
Ovviamente sempre IMHO.

Per me dovresti migliorare un po’ il contrasto tra la scritta e lo sfondo dell’header. Il bordo verde va bene, magari prova o ad applicare una punta di effetto satin al riempimento oppure, magari, ad usare una tonalità più chiara dell’attualer colore di riempimento.
Comunque già così è meglio di prima.
