English-readers notice

Dear English-readers,

Although I have started a process to translate most of the content of this website, I am afraid to admit that at this moment only a little part of it has already been translated to English. You possibly already know how difficult is to mantain your own personal and professional site as well as updating content in a regular basis, so imagine how difficult it is to do it in three different languages! I hope that in the near future most of the content will be available in that language, but till then, all of those who are willing to read about my thoughts or experiences (I am assuming that there will be someone, somewhere) you can visit the site in Spanish and use automated translators such as Google Translator.

However, if you are interested in a certain article and you utterly need it to be translated please let me know and I'll try my best to do it.

Thanks for your patience and sorry for the inconvenience.

About simplicity, complexity and deficiencies

Temas:

There are two ways of constructing a software design: one way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies; the other is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies.
– C. A. R. Hoare

When reading A byte of python by Swaroop C H, I found this quote being funny, well constructed and true. The funniest thing in my opinion is that it can also be applied to many other areas apart from computer science, being politics one of the most evident.
