Deviant Abstraction

I am cited in the IT part of the Journal du Net.

An excerpt in French:

Vous êtes-vous fait aider par des sociétés de services concernant ce travail d’optimisation des requêtes ?
Oui, par une petite société tenue par Nicolas Toper et Luc Bizeul. Ils nous ont aidés à faire des tests de montée en charge, d’analyse de configuration et de détection de points sensibles.

Thanks to 20minutes and Nicolas for having enjoyed so much our work, he mentions us in the press.

A few friends asked me whether this blog is dead or not. The short answer is no and I will soon resume updating it.

I am back. Please accept my apologies for the interruption of service. I will explain later what happened. Please contact me in case of any weird things you see.

Thanks

I still use a lot my new camera, but I put its photos on a dedicated Gallery I just set up. I evaluated using Flickr but I discarded it for a variety of reasons.

Is it just me or Akhismet has some issues. My Akismet key is invalid. I generated a new one, but it is still invalid. In the meantime, I need to go to tons of spam comments, so please excuse me for the time between the post of your comment and its actual validation.

If it still does not work in a few days, I will switch to an open source solution.

It seems I am not the only one with this issue.

Does anybody know what is wrong?

(thanks Julien)

I am in vacation from my Project Manager current job. I will be back on Tuesday for a whole meeting day. How cool…

Those days, I am just overloaded by work. I am just over a “hell week” (three exams, one trip to Italy, a lot of meetings, some code to commit for Google SoC and so on.) and next one is only slightly better (start my master’s thesis, work, Google SoC, one exam,…). It is the last “hell week” of this academic year.

I will have soon more time available to post on this blog. Right now, I just work and… work.

Let us take this time as an opportunity to reflect on this blog. What do you think of it? How can I improve it? Please leave your thoughts as comment.
