   I used to have cheatsheets also (see here for the last version[1]), but I end up never use it because Google is simply faster . . . I'll probably write some lines on FreeMind in a future post :) [1] http://www.lengrand.fr/programming-tips-

   Didn't know about tomato.es, but it seems like a cool tool. I used to use an equivalent, but stopped because I try to stay away from my browser when working (to avoid ending on youtube, or here . . . :)). I actually use pomodroido ( https:/

    I have moved twice with my expedit, without never breaking anything. This is amazing how strong the stuff can be. Same for the lack tables, never broke any, even while seating on them totally drunk ^^ . Ikea uses the same materials as the
