<title>Faces da China</title>

<description>Por Jos&amp;eacute; Ricardo de Oliveira Damico

De 2009 at&amp;eacute; hoje, 11 pessoas cometerem suic&amp;iacute;dio na China, nas depend&amp;ecirc;ncias da empresa Foxconn. Dez destas pessoas faleceram em 2010 e nos &amp;uacute;ltimos 2 meses outras 2 tentaram o suicidio sem sucesso.

A Foxconn &amp;eacute; uma grande empresa de fabrica&amp;ccedil;&amp;atilde;o de pe&amp;ccedil;as e aparelhos eletr&amp;ocirc;nicos para grandes empresas. Apple, IBM, Microsoft, Sony, HP, Nokia e Nintento entre outras, s&amp;atilde;o companhias contratantes da Foxconn para a produ&amp;ccedil;&amp;atilde;o parcial ou completa de seus aparelhos. Para que tal fabrica&amp;ccedil;&amp;atilde;o ocorra em larga escala e possa portanto suprir a demanda de mercado mundial, uma das unidades da Foxconn onde ocorreram as mortes citadas emprega aproximadamente 300 mil pessoas.

O ex&amp;eacute;rcito de funcion&amp;aacute;rios da Foxconn &amp;eacute; um pr&amp;oacute;prio espelho da na&amp;ccedil;&amp;atilde;o chinesa: Presen&amp;ccedil;a global, atrav&amp;eacute;s do trabalho an&amp;ocirc;nimo de milhares de pessoas. Indiv&amp;iacute;duos que ve&amp;ecirc;m seu presente e futuro esquecidos face a constru&amp;ccedil;&amp;atilde;o do presente e futuro de sua na&amp;ccedil;&amp;atilde;o.

Das centenas de milhares de funcion&amp;aacute;rios da Foxconn a maior parte executa tarefas manuais, em sequ&amp;ecirc;ncia repetitiva, de teste, montagem, resoldagem e conex&amp;otilde;es. Tarefas que ainda n&amp;atilde;o podem ser substitu&amp;iacute;das por m&amp;aacute;quinas. Estes mesmos funcion&amp;aacute;rios trabalham em longas linhas de produ&amp;ccedil;&amp;atilde;o vestidos com uniformes iguais de tecido antiest&amp;aacute;tico. Possuem intervalos de 10 minutos (para irem ao banheiro), a cada 2 horas de trabalho. S&amp;atilde;o jovens na faixa et&amp;aacute;ria de 20 &amp;agrave; 30 anos, que moram longe de suas fam&amp;iacute;lias, em dormit&amp;oacute;rios coletivos na mesma &amp;aacute;rea onde a empresa est&amp;aacute; instalada e ganham n&amp;atilde;o mais do que 150 d&amp;oacute;lares por m&amp;ecirc;s.

Com este modelo de neg&amp;oacute;cio a Foxconn, uma empresa de visibilidade global, consegue manter sua competitividade e atender &amp;agrave; demanda mundial de eletr&amp;ocirc;nicos criados pelas grandes empresas de tecnologia. Por&amp;eacute;m n&amp;atilde;o se sabe em quais condi&amp;ccedil;&amp;otilde;es de trabalho s&amp;atilde;o produzidos a infinidade de produtos chineses, pirateados, clonados ou de segunda linha. O que &amp;eacute; certo &amp;eacute; que as leis trabalhistas na China s&amp;atilde;o praticamente inexistentes e a vis&amp;atilde;o do empregadores sobre o bem-estar de seus empregados &amp;eacute; m&amp;iacute;ope. Para se ter um exemplo, as a&amp;ccedil;&amp;otilde;es preventivas contra novas tentativas de suic&amp;iacute;dio na Foxconn, foram: Instala&amp;ccedil;&amp;atilde;o de telas de prote&amp;ccedil;&amp;atilde;o em sacadas e aumento salarial de 30%.

<link></link>
<guid isPermaLink="true"></guid>
<comments>#comments</comments>
<description>Hi everyone, 

Sometime ago (for a personal research) I&apos;ve created a Java Applet that collects usage data from Firefox, on Linux and Windows. If you have interest, take a look at *http://code.google.com/p/dsotm-collector/* 

See you later :)

<title>TennisChibiChampionship: Tennis Game built on Blender</title>
<link></link>
<guid isPermaLink="true"></guid>
<comments>#comments</comments>
<description>Hi folks,

About two months ago I&apos;ve knew Julio Cargnin Pereira who is one of the creators of the game: &amp;quot;Tennis Chibi Championship&amp;quot; (name in portuguese: Torneio dos Chibis Campe&amp;otilde;es). A game built in Blender, that works in Linux, Windows and Mac.

After some conversation with Julio, he agreed in publish his game on google code. So it is:  *http://code.google.com/p/tenischibichampionship/* 

&amp;lt;img src=&apos;http://tenischibichampionship.googlecode.com/files/tcc-ss1-p.png&apos; alt=&apos;tcc&apos;&amp;gt;

Take a look, and see how good is the game and the graphics.

Also I would like to give my congratulations to Julio and Jo&amp;atilde;o, that are the main creators of this game!

Best Regards,

<title>GeoConME: GPL Mobile GPS Locating System</title>
<link></link>
<guid isPermaLink="true"></guid>
<comments>#comments</comments>
<description>A friend of mine (Razec), author of GeoConvertor *http://code.google.com/p/geoconvertor/* , influenced me in the idea of create a GPS locating system to mobile phones. Then I&apos;ve started the project GeoConME *http://code.google.com/p/geoconme/* which is a Java ME application that collects data from GPS and sends to a very simple web page that shows Latitude/Longitude information using Google Maps.

&amp;lt;img src=&apos;http://geoconme.googlecode.com/files/geconme-shot1.jpg&apos; alt=&apos;geoconme&apos;&amp;gt;

&amp;lt;img src=&apos;http://geoconme.googlecode.com/files/geoconmeweb.png&apos; alt=&apos;geoconme&apos;&amp;gt;

This project is available under GPL. And were tested on Nokia phones with Symbian S60 OS.

Enjoy!

<title>New OpenSource Distributed file system with support at level of Petabytes</title>
<link></link>
<guid isPermaLink="true"></guid>
<comments>#comments</comments>
<description>Hi all,

I am sending this note to let you know about some great news about storage/kernel support on Linux:

Last week was launched a new distributed file system with support at level of petabytes. It is called CEPH and will be available as default into kernel 2.6.34. 
This is a important new resource that enables scalable storage systems.

- Easy scalability to multi-petabyte capacity
- High performance over varying workloads (input/output operations per second [IOPS] and bandwidth)
- Strong reliability
- dynamic metadata partitioning
- data distribution
- replication
- fault tolerance
- monitoring functions
- full POSIX compatibility

If you want to know more about CEPH take a look at: 

Creators&apos; paper &amp;quot;Ceph: A Scalable, High-Performance Distributed File System&amp;quot;        *http://www.ssrc.ucsc.edu/Papers/weil-osdi06.pdf*  
Sage Weil&apos;s PhD dissertation, &amp;quot;Ceph: Reliable, Scalable, and High-Performance Distributed Storage&amp;quot;     *http://ceph.newdream.net/weil-thesis.pdf*  
An article from developerWorks   *http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-ceph/*   

Best Regards,

<title>Lotus Notes 8.5 does not start Correctly [SOLVED]</title>
<link></link>
<guid isPermaLink="true"></guid>
<comments>#comments</comments>
<description>Sometimes after reboot my machine, my Lotus Notes does not start. It tries, but after a couple of minutes it hangs and shows a NSD message.

Then, when I try to run thru command-line, it shows the following message:

05/04/2010 06:35:19.11 PM [14506:00002-3024332496] NEMInit&amp;gt; Calling NEMCheckPreviousInstance
05/04/2010 06:35:19.11 PM [14506:00002-3024332496] NEMInit&amp;gt; Setting Current Core Process Id to shared memory BLK_WCT_PID [14506]
05/04/2010 06:35:20.05 PM [14506:00002-3024332496] WM_DESK_INIT&amp;gt; Calling NEMCheckPreviousInstance
05/04/2010 06:35:20.05 PM [14506:00002-3024332496] NEMCheckPreviousInstance&amp;gt; Waiting for process [4391] to shutdown
05/04/2010 06:35:21.05 PM [14506:00002-3024332496] NEMCheckPreviousInstance&amp;gt; Waiting for process [4391] to shutdown
05/04/2010 06:35:22.05 PM [14506:00002-3024332496] NEMCheckPreviousInstance&amp;gt; Waiting for process [4391] to shutdown

SOLUTION: remove the data of the latest pid that was not closed correctly:

# rm /home/&amp;lt;YOUR USER&amp;gt;/lotus/notes/data/workspace/.notes2.pid

Then run Notes again :)</description>

<description>Last Thursday (May 29) I met Julio and Edgar and we started to play with Augmented Reality with MacOS and Flash. Then at that same afternoon, night and some work at Sunday night, I&apos;ve built an implementation using Eclipse, Linux, Video4Linux, Java, JMF, Java3D and an ordinary webcam. It was submitted at *http://ejj.googlecode.com*
