Conectiva Soundtrack

Another update: This reminded me that Andreas also played much Foo Fighters, like Big Me, Everlong, Monkey Wrench, Breakout, My Hero.

Update: Osvaldo Neto recalled the music of Die Ärzte, called Meine Freunde.

lowered again the nostalgia of Conectiva. Remembered today in our time of optimism, excitement and desire to do something different with Linux in Brazil, which was also accompanied by some soundtrack. I'll try to make a set list with some songs or bands that I consider emblematic at certain times that I lived [1999-2001] at this company. My friends may remember some of them or may have other musical memories. This is mine:

Ars long, vita brevis

On July 8, 2010 will complete two months of surgical removal of the appendix. For those unaware, I had to do (or did for me) an emergency surgery. It all started one day earlier on Friday with a pain in the abdomen and unusual, sharp and persistent. From lunchtime until five o'clock when I decided to go home, was still at work and not know how I keep going over and felt that pain (symptom workaholic?). I went home to rest and see if they "passed the pain" - not happening. This is when connecting an internal warning that something is wrong, and then went straight to the hospital near my home (Mother of God).

The summary of the story: they made the diagnosis, palpate the lower right abdomen, ultrasound and blood test, the result was that he had appendicitis, infection and needed to operate the next day. In the hour hits a panic, a feeling of not wanting to accept, but before I just accepted it as the best option and let things go, after all, the other option is to go home and die of overwhelming infection.



The operation was successful, and had not spread to the abdomen (not sutured / unexploded / etc.) was relatively simple without the need to open a huge gash. I have three holes in the belly, where the tubes to operate via the camera were inserted. My recovery was good in the first week was still sore and tired, the second week I got back to normal. I was fortunate to have the help of good friends to recover me and help me with the "operational" here at home. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this .

But suddenly this event made me rethink a little in the way of life he was leading in question and priorities when it is live. Obviously not got too many conclusions but reflecting little, one thing bothered me: was to have adopted a lifestyle that has become standard in Brazil , resulting from years of good economy. It is the centralization of life as pure consumerism, where the goal is to have things (to show others) are included in this career focus , prepare for the labor market , "empoweirar" and "Tweaker "life to be competitive - meaning stolen so silly English to mean the exaggerated self-improvement of productivity and performance" in life and in day-to-day. " I think the summary is the greed of wanting to always have more, earn more. It is car of the year, new house, new furniture, LCD TV 50 inch full HD, Playstation 3. Entertainment in FULL HD and other things of immediate consumption.



Not that I do not want a car or a house , or have good entertainment and comfort. Far from it, I like to have and enjoy quality services and objects not blame anyone for this - for example, I love Apple computers, tech toys that are expensive and elites. What I blame is the aggressive and reckless consumption of the middle class, usually caused by "social pressure", where people have the products not for himself, but to show to others, to be accepted in that circle of relationship. This kind of lifestyle I want to be outside.

Making use of an old cliché, the most important thing in life is your life, regardless of anything and everything: parents, children, family, friends, work, etc..; the instinct of self-preservation and demand happiness is inherent. In one of the moments that preceded the operation, I tried talking to God - yes, my faith has to do with the fear of death - and one of the "claims" to want everything to go well was to build a family. It is a genuine desire, but now I see that is quite out of my reality. Unfortunately I can not have a relationship based on the type of lifestyle that most families try to live, I can be very misinformed, but apparently that lifestyle is at odds with what I think now, especially with the expectations women about having a home and family.

Another point which I think is important to reaffirm that the work is important and rewarding to for a personal life. No matter what type of work (physical or intellectual), or what you earn, but you feel like you doing and what do you get in return (money, success, recognition) with him. What I dislike is supercentralização of career due to our consumerist life, or when inconveniently, your private life is mixed with your very life, and especially the blind and superfocado work that we end up doing when he becomes a workaholic .



I do not know if I can get some conclusion to this article, but I think one of the things I see as the "antidote" I think that's bad in the middle-class consumerism today is the appreciation of good deeds and good friendships, you can count on a good conversation and company of positive people, creative, full of will to do something. Another point to highlight is the importance of doing something for you, always striving to make something that pleases you (music, reading, gardening, doing some project at home). I think it's important to try to do something to your circle of life or society, or an activity for the group or activity can help other people.

I still can not reach this stage of personal development, I sincerely hope that one day I can break a little bit of comfort and vision "territorial reptile" that accompanies me. Finally, since no one will get the same conclusion and the text of a treaty turned my moralism (which did not want it) the title of this article is a quote from Greek philosopher Hippocrates, who I found on some reading any of this life, the translation was arranged by me, so my interpretation is:

Ars long, vita brevis, Occasio praeceps, experimentum periculosum , iudicium difficile.
Art / Craft is a long / hard, life is short, the opportunity is fleeting, experience is dangerous and the trial is difficult.
(Hippocrates).

Retrospective 2000-2010

This story was inspired copiously in House-wide digital: Retrospective 1997-2007 (personal blog EPX).

The problem of doing a retrospective is to discover that not much has happened in that period, but that's okay, I'll take this risk.

In 2000 the world was different from today ... Well, it certainly will in 2020 and thus is not a good cliche to begin with. Seriously now, in 2000 we lived in a boom in global economic optimism. And contained in this boom, was what we called "Dot Com Bubble" - the first pocket of inflation growth, with money strong pumping in several companies that had emerged in the emerging Internet.

And I was part of that context, because he worked in an emerging and promising dot-com, Conectiva, which formed the connective Linux. At that time, Linux was a revolutionary system that would dominate the entire market for computers, servers, desktops and mobile, the windows was an inferior product and doomed to failure. Saved the proper proportions, to work on Conectiva was like working at Netscape, obviously without the advantages of being in America.

[NOTE: Who wants to know more about this season boom and the company Netscape, I recommend watching the film documentary Code Rush 2000 available for download without violating the law. ]

The year 2000 was the peak of the bubble, because I saw the small company where he worked out of a large house in a suburban neighborhood of Curitiba for a seat in a building located in a nicer neighborhood and also saw the hiring boom that the company had to do, probably because of the investment contract. And so, the small and cozy to large and sparkling in less than a year.

From 2001 to 2002 bubble burst, there waves of lay-off everywhere, the market shrank professionally. I ended up venturing with some friends to start a business. It was a time I remember being bowled short of money in my pocket, but much empolgaçãoe hope for better days in another bubble.

For me, 2003 was a professional random adventures. On the one hand, I think it was a moment that signaled the return of money in technology, what was good for me and my nerdy friends.

In 2004 to 2005 I had a relatively stable, living in a comfortable place, did not have many mobile or bills to pay, had no car, I move with quality public transportation (Curitiba) and rode a bicycle more. On the other hand, was very professionally dissatisfied with what he was doing, I felt very limited. On the other hand, was very comfortable in Curitiba with friends and daily life in the city. After all, they were 8 years since I had gone to Bethlehem to have won it.

But the bug had bitten me adventure again. In 2005 to 2006, he considered his friends were all excited to work with Linux in a research office of Nokia, a technical foundation Nokia to set up for that. The work was promising, so I followed the flow of things and changed the city and employment. I stopped in Recife.

Professionally, the experience was very rewarding. I was able to gain professional maturity and especially to have again pleased with the work that produced fruit. But the truth is that I could not adapt to life in Recife. I always liked the lifestyle, "the South", and have gone to Recife and live the lifestyle of the northeast was in some ways, a throwback to me.

A pause to say that the years 2005 and 2006 were the "max" the decade.

In 2006 to 2007 I ended up in Porto Alegre (gave it to you, bad mood ...) Work on Earth. I was so excited to be able to have a more stable life (again) and can "raise my professional career" in a big corporation. In fact our expectations are always high (on your side and your contractor) and just the everyday is that you end up knowing how things really are.

The fact is that Porto Alegre is a very welcoming and always had a desire to live. The people of Porto Alegre is very proud, committed to the work, and are also more loose and relaxed, the conversation easier.

But 2007 was not a year no good for me, I had to completely adapt the routine aspects of a company that has a big corp. company and "dot com" (relax, freedom to access, smart colleagues). Coupled with personal problems, I can say that 2007 was a valley (deep) in my life.

The year 2008 was more positive, it was a rebuilding year personally and professionally. Financially it was also very positive. I was visiting my father, my sister and two nieces and, after some time living in the South, I could bring her mother to know all the southern states, SC, PR and SR. It was very good to restore my mental health.

confess that I found in 2009 a strange year, because all that came in November and pessimistic negative charge on the crisis that has plagued the world, in fact everyone was scared shitless, as they should have taken advantage of opportunities in Brazil, but that's another story. And look at the the beginning of 2009 was actually good.

In 2010 what struck me was a personal event, I I had to do emergency surgery to remove the appendix. I am now recovering, and such an experience for someone not by the book of Machiavelli, fires a trigger that what most said this was a retrospective of work and I need to continue to do other things.
