Silicon Valley, ayer y hoy

Silicon Valley Lost, And Found Kim-Mai Cuttler - TechCrunch Silicon Valley is a place that is just as much about people reinventing themselves as it is about people reinventing industries. As a new year turns, it’s time to go through that silly (but actually necessary) exercise of pausing to reflect.

Como salvar a Blackberry

A Way To Save BlackBerry Editor’s note: Andrew Auernheimer, aka Weev, a hacker who was convicted of hacking AT&T’s iPad customer information service and sentenced to 41 months in prison. Since June, he has sent TechCrunch two other essays from prison, “The Tiger And The Cicada” and “State Machinery For State Machines.” The first smartphone I owned was a Nokia Communicator, which I chose because the C++ dev kit gave me the most freedom. When the iPhone appeared I did not switch, because mandatory App Store signing to execute code seemed like a major step in the war on general computation. Eventually I rid myself of Nokia and got an Android acting upon a moral imperative. Many hackers adhere to the ideology of Richard Stallman....
