Still in #Strasbourg to discover these defensive towers built directly on the river in the Middle Ages to repel invaders ⚔️🏹 #Alsace #history #defense

Past & Present 🙏 Vasco 17 months and this old granite millstone which must be more than 400 years old given the history of the village 🤩 #corsica #dogstr #dogsofnostr #nature #history

This guy presents an opinion on "a compile-time hierarchy of encapsulation that matches the domain model" and what are the appropriate ways of drawing the encapsulation boundaries in software today. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wo84LFzx5nI This is pretty deep. The talk is based on not-very-well-known details of the history of OOP paradigm and related programming languages. As well as the challenging problems that were originally successfully solved on the crappy computers of the 1960s. Somehow reminds me of the completely unrelated but famous "billion dollar mistake" of the NULL pointer: the pattern, which was probably good for a single problem Hoare was working on at that time, but unfortunately became a mainstream solution for inappropriate problems. #computerscience #softwareengineering #history

Hello Nostr 😁 Another view of the Genoese tower of Capannella 🤩 It's one of the must-do coastal hikes ! And the tower's facilities allow you to visit its interior and reach its summit. #corsica #history #monument

#GM Good Morning Nostr 😁☀️ Still not a #VLOG 🤣 I prefer to show you the view as if you were there 🤩 This is the Genoese tower of Capannella in the Bay of Cupabia in southern #Corsica. A fantastic tower, built around 1589 and now equipped with ladders so it can be visited. Its role was to sound the alarm in case of an approaching enemy ship. #history #panorama

Good evening Nostr 😁 A brief #drone flight over a magnificent place with sad origins. This is the Coti-Chiavari dam, built by prisoners from the penitentiary at the end of the 19th century. This reservoir was used to irrigate various crops. Today, you can stroll around it and enjoy the view of the Gulf of #Ajaccio. #corsica #history #discovery

#history In 1793, one of the most famous Corsicans in the world, #Napoleon Bonaparte, was forced to flee his hometown of #Ajaccio, driven out by Pascal Paoli's supporters. It was from this tower (filmed this winter) that he set sail with his fleet. The Capitello Tower, located in Porticcio at the very end of the Gulf of Ajaccio. He stopped at Capu Di Muru to pick up some members of his family, then returned to Calvi for a few weeks before leaving #Corsica for good to continue his military and political career. https://blossom.primal.net/ec800d6617e4f1a2977046fdb93f25a3b0b1d8b1212bea1f32a42ab0b3ec1128.mov
