Costo’s Blog

Friday I’m leaving for Buenos Aires and will spend a week there (despite the silly H1N1 scare). Well, I had to do something with my between-projects vacations, and since we won’t have french classes next week…

Me and some friends from work created a blog dedicated to brazilian popular poetry (from great writers such as Rodolfo Abrantes, Costinha and so on). Check it out at http://embracingbrazilianpoetry.blogspot.com/.

No, the title is not a reference to Portal, just a note that despite the lack of activity on this blog, I’m still breathing. In the last few months, lots have happened:

• I finally graduated from University (Some photos can be seen here);
• I’ve started working with the Nintendo DS. It’s a fun platform to work, albeit a bit annoying sometimes;
• I dropped out from the masters course on my second class. It’s harder than it looks to keep up with work and the course, considering that the university wants to keep its scores with CAPES high…

I cant quite remember what else happened the last months, but if I remember something I’ll eventually post it here (although I might lag for a few months).

It’s now official. I work at Ubisoft.

Em três semanas deve ser a banca do meu TCC, “Uma biblioteca de assinaturas digitais para dispositivos portáteis usando curvas elípticas”. Leia-se: Implementação do ECDSA para celulares usando S60, em Python, e a comparação deste com o DSA. O TC foi a desculpa perfeita para comprar um Nokia N81, diga-se de passagem

A implementação tá disponível em http://ecc4pys60.googlecode.com/. Talvez eu venha a integrar essa implementação com o Keyczar.

Congratulations to all the self proclaimed nerds who can’t act like they have ever seen women. (Let alone talk to them).

Parabéns a todos os nerds que parecem ser incapazes de agir como se já tivessem visto mulheres. (E muito menos ter falado com uma).
