Microsoft: University Recruiting in Brazil
0519 days

in tips
I got an e-mail from a Microsoft HR person informing that they are going to Brazil after new year for a recruiting tip.
So if you are from any university in Brazil and want to apply, follow these instructions:
- Visit our University Recruiting page
- Click on either “Fulltime” or “Internship” (fulltime = graduating)
- Under the tab titled “Software & Hardware Development”, click the “Apply Now” button.
If you are not currently enrolled in a university or are more than 1 year out of college, you should apply for industry positions via our Careers site by visiting here.
Any further questions, drop a comment, and I’ll try to address them as soon as possible.
OpenSim – The definitive guide (sort of)

Aside from my M.Sc. degree, I am working on a project involving Virtual Worlds. For that, we are using OpenSim as the simulation server. While my server is fully functional now, not everything was easy. In fact, it was a bit complicated. Its configuration took more than a week (thanks to my ignorance and also probably laziness). Now that my server is up and running, I have compiled some instructions into this guide in order to help people overcome some problems in installing it. My focus is going to be in installing the server in Grid Mode with Hypergrid support on a machine with direct access to the internet, i.e. not behind a NAT (sorry for being so specific, but I’m only reproducing the steps I took to get it working).

Hiroshi Seo is the writer behind the Ubunchu! manga series. From the about page:
“Ubunchu!” is a Japanese manga series featuring Ubuntu Linux.
Three school students in a system-admin club are getting into Ubuntu!
The series is completely open sourced meaning that translations to other languages can be done. It is originally written in Japanese, but an English version is available at DoctorMO’s Blog.
I haven’t checked it yet, but I think it’s worth to follow his updates on this series.

Digg Dialogg is a internet show where Kevin Rose interviews some “notable leaders and luminaires”. The questions are submited by Digg users, so no editor or journalists drive the interview. The episode #4 has Trent Reznor as guest and the interview can be watched bellow.

Lego nowadays is an ubiquitous thing. Seriously. Everyone can be impersonated in Lego.
See for yourself Stephen Hawking in his Lego version.
