		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s this little girl on the hotel&#8217;s lobby. She seems very smart, but at odds with one of the popular magazines she&#8217;s reading. It looks like one of those low-quality magazines that people publish for children, assuming they&#8217;re dumb and can&#8217;t take a bit of logic. This one seems to be about history, mostly relating [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Geeks like to hack stuff, especially if they&#8217;re not meant to be hacked. But hacking computers or mobile phones is piece of cake, so some, more adventurous geeks hack cars. The Toyota Prius is a particularly interesting car to hack, since a lot of its functionality is based on control systems and they have interface [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is a little pet project I did a while ago. It&#8217;s a FreeCell puzzle&#8216;s solver API. The idea is to provide a basic validation engine and board management (pretty much like my old chess validation), so people can write FreeCell solvers on top of it. It has basic board setup (of multiple sizes), movement [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) are not new. The first I remember playing is the Legend Of the Red Dragon (LORD), but before that, of course, I&#8217;ve played other (real-life) multiplayer RPG games as well, and they were never quite the same thing. Of course, at that time the graphic cards couldn&#8217;t quite compete [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m cycling to work now and found that by being stored and unused for so long, my bicycle&#8217;s gear box (or whatever that&#8217;s called) was a bit damaged. Not a total loss, but I lost one front gear and one back gear, which makes it a 12-gear bicycle instead of a 21. It made me [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Nothing to do with the topic of this blog, you are right, but I couldn&#8217;t stop thinking about the reality England faces regarding football. All these years watching a mediocre football, even in the Premier League, where Cristiano Ronaldo is the top player and where Robinho can&#8217;t play football made me wondering what&#8217;s terribly wrong [...]]]></description>

Humble bundle is an initiative hosted by Wolfire studio, in which five other studios (2D Boy, Bit Blot, Cryptic Sea, Frictional Games and the recently joined Amanita Design) joined their award-winning indie games into a bundle with two [...]]]></description>

Virtually everything known to them was written on the ancient manuscripts and organized by topic, cross-linked with other topics, in a very simple yet complete language that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Most game-changing scientific discoveries had a lot of logic and critical thinking, but also a bit of luck involved. As most scientists, I don&#8217;t believe in luck, so the definition of luck here is being the right person in the right place at the right time. As most (good) scientists, I don&#8217;t believe, I state, [...]]]></description>

Some research just found anti-matter in an unusual place: lightning! It might be easier to produce a warp core that we originally thought. Given, of course, that sub-space [...]]]></description>
