Yesterday, we took a look at a brief introduction to the new AEC Data Model API, which targets data within files on your Autodesk Construction Cloud instead of drawing all of them and sifting through them later (which isn’t half bad when a system is paid per credit, let me tell you). Today we’ll try […]
Come anticipavo l’altro giorno, dall’11 al 17 Novembre si terrà Milano Bookcity, un evento diffuso sul territorio che vede enti pubblici, privati e indipendenti contribuire con eventi dedicati al mondo della cultura. Ecco una piccola selezione di eventi relativi ai temi della formazione, se vi capita di passare da queste parti. E se invece non […]
Second post in the South African notes, following a bittersweet focus on its history (remember? 2.4 million people living in slums), and this time I promise it’ll get less grim. Maybe. And it will have penguins. 2. Nature and Wildlife South Africa hosts one of the world’s six floral kingdoms, the others being the Holarctic, […]

Autodesk announced lots of news during last October’s Autodesk University and, though some of them weren’t really new, we do have some interesting development, especially on the cloud services. You can find the full list here. Since I am bound to forget to look into it or forget that I’ve looked into it altogether, I’ll […]
After wrapping up a glorious Autodesk University in San Diego, I took a week off, and it was my now traditional week of vacation with my sommelier friend (see Madeira for reference). It’s our sixth long vacation together, and 4 out of six destinations were on the African continent. There are a few reasons for […]
Yesterday I wrote that Lafcadio Hearn, who came to call himself Yakumo Koizumi, had been interested in the supernatural and the spooky way before he moved to Japan. Here’s an example of what I mean. What is the fear of ghosts among those who believe in ghosts? All fear is the result of experience,—experience of […]
When we talk about Lafcadio Hearn we often think of his folklore stories, but he also wrote a whole bunch of other stuff, and he has been fascinated by the supernatural and the macabre long before he moved to Japan. This is one of them. Long before I had arrived at what catechisms call the […]
Should you ever go down there, let’s say for the 2025 Esri User Conference, I’ve got you covered. 1. The USS Midway and the Museum of the Sea I’m not sure it’s actually worth it going inside the museums unless you’ve got time to spare (which we didn’t) and you’re really passionate about going aboard […]
The body was cold as ice; the heart had long ceased to beat, yet there were no other signs of death. Nobody even spoke of burying the woman. She had died of grief and anger at having been divorced. It would have been useless to bury her,—because the last undying wish of a dying person […]
