Dime qué software usas y te diré quién eres. Aaron Koblin, agudo infovisualizador, en ‘Artfully visualizing our humanity’ (charla TED2011), sostiene que “así como la cultura del siglo XIX fue definida por la novela, y la del siglo XX por el cine, la cultura del siglo XXI estará definida por la interfaz”, es decir por el software.

Dime qué software usas y te diré quién eres.

Lo que divide a nuestro presente inmaterial de nuestro pasado tangible es el uso masivo del software. Ya no son las ‘chimeneas manchesterianas’ las que aplauden la madurez civilizada, sino los tintineos de las pantallas y las volutas de código dibujadas cual remedo de Matrix las que presiden cada minuto de nuestro quehacer cotidiano, desde los más sublimes hasta los más triviales. La cultura dejó de ser material y se convirtió en etérea. Escribir software ya no es privativo de las tribus informáticas como diagnosticara Pierre Levy a mediados de los años 1980, sino que es una lengua franca que hasta los propios ministerios quieren convertir en el ABC de una alfabetización amplificada.

It is, essentially, a program that allows the user to observe an operation through simulation without actually performing that operation. Simulation software is used widely to design equipment so that the final product will be as close to design specs as possible without expensive in process modification. Simulation software with real-time response is often used in gaming, but it also has important industrial applications.

When the penalty for improper operation is costly, such as airplane pilots, nuclear power plant operators, or chemical plant operators, a mock up of the actual control panel is connected to a real-time simulation of the physical response, giving valuable training experience without fear of a disastrous outcome.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Fedora /fəˈdɔərə/ is an RPM-based, general purpose operating system built on top of the Linux kernel, developed by the community-supported Fedora Project and sponsored by Red Hat.

Fedora's mission statement is: "Fedora is about the rapid progress of Free and Open Source software. " One of Fedora's main objectives is not only to contain software distributed under a free and open source license, but also to be on the leading edge of such technologies. Fedora developers prefer to make upstream changes instead of applying fixes specifically for Fedora—this ensures that their updates are available to all Linux distributions.

Fedora has a comparatively short life cycle: version X is maintained until one month after version X+2 is released. Linus Torvalds, author of the Linux kernel, says he uses Fedora because it had fairly good support for PowerPC when he used that processor architecture. A map of the Linux kernel. Purge server cache.

As for versioning, if no version number is provided, this page will return any recent versions of the selected package. It is also possible to perform searches for distributions which do not contain a specific package. The package version search offers the ability to search for packages which are close to a specific version, exactly equal to a specific version, greater than or less than a given version.
