De l’euphorie et de la tendresse: De Bruyne partage des images inédites de la célébration du titre

(2022-05-25_12-58-53)


Toujours aussi fier. Deux jours après avoir remporté le titre de champion d’Angleterre au terme d’un dénouement haletant, Kevin De Bruyne a partagé des images uniques des célébrations avec Manchester City.

Manchester City a été couronné champion de la Premier League dimanche. Menés 0-2 contre Aston Villa, les Skyblues ont inscrit trois buts dans le dernier quart d’heure pour finalement s’imposer (3-2) et assurer leur titre. Passeur décisif sur le but de la victoire, Kevin De Bruyne n’a pas boudé son plaisir au moment de célébrer ce nouveau sacre.

Le Diable a publié de nouvelles images mardi soir: on y voit Pep Guardiola sauter à son cou, et sa famille profiter avec lui sur la pelouse de l’Etihad Stadium. Sa femme Michèle Lacroix, ses fils Mason Milian et Rome et sa fille Suri étaient tous présents pour le féliciter.


Brief History Of Linux (#17)
If only Gary had been sober

When Micro-soft moved to Seattle in 1979, most of its revenue came from
sales of BASIC, a horrible language so dependant on GOTOs that spaghetti
looked more orderly than its code did. (BASIC has ruined more promising
programmers than anything else, prompting its original inventor Dartmouth
University to issue a public apology in 1986.)

However, by 1981 BASIC hit the backburner to what is now considered the
luckiest break in the history of computing: MS-DOS. (We use the term
"break" because MS-DOS was and always will be broken.) IBM was developing
a 16-bit "personal computer" and desperately needed an OS to drive it.

Their first choice was Gary Kildall's CP/M, but IBM never struck a deal
with him. We've discovered the true reason: Kildall was drunk at the time
the IBM representatives went to talk with him. A sober man would not have
insulted the reps, calling their employer an "Incredibly Bad Monopoly" and
referring to their new IBM-PC as an "Idealistically Backwards
Microcomputer for People without Clues". Needless to say, Gary "I Lost The
Deal Of The Century" Kildall was not sober.
