Woody Guthrie, on intellectual property.

This song is Copyrighted in U.S., under Seal of Copyright # 154085, for a period of 28 years, and anybody caught singin it without our permission, will be mighty good friends of ourn, cause we don’t give a dern. Publish it. Write it. Sing it. Swing to it. Yodel it. We wrote it, that’s all we wanted to do.

  • Woody Guthrie, 1940's —

This is my default career advice for people starting out in geo/GIS, especially remote sensing, adapted from a response to a letter in 2013.

I'm currently about to start a Geography degree at the University of [Redacted] at [Redacted] with a focus in GIS, and I've been finding that I have an interest in working with imagery. Obviously I should take Remote Sensing and other similar classes, but I'm the type of person who likes to self learn as well. So my question is this: What recommendations would you give to a student who is interested in working with imagery? Are there any self study paths that you could recommend?

I learned on my own and on the job, and there are a lot of important topics in GIS that I don’t know anything about, so I can’t give comprehensive advice. I haven’t arrived anywhere; I’m just ten minutes ahead in the convoy we’re both in. Take these recommendations critically.

Find interesting people. You’ll learn a lot more from a great professor (or mentor, or friend, or conference) o

Sid Meier's 10 Rules of Game Design
Sid Meier's 10 Rules of Game Design
1. Choose a topic you have a passion for. Game Design is about creativity.
2. Do research after the game is done. Tap into the player’s brain.
3. Define your axioms, refine your axioms. Prototype, prototype, prototype; sit in all the chairs.
4. Double it or cut it in half. You are more wrong than you think.

Pollo al lemongrass con calabacines

Un plato muy fácil (y rápido!) de preparar, sano, sabroso y perfecto como punto de partida para experimentar con nuevos ingredientes. En casa lo hacemos casi todas las semanas, para cenar.

Ingredientes, para 3 personas

  • Filetes de muslo de pollo (yo suelo comprar una bandeja de 600gr o así)
  • lemongrass
