I am going to be make a short break from the migration of old blog posts, this is really eating a lot of my energy, and I am not spending it writing a new post. Just a few lines for my new addition on the home networking front. It's hilarious because I was reading posts of mine from the past, something like 10 years …

I guess I am old enough to remember the days when I had to configure Quartz on some old JavaEE application, troubleshoot a failed task maybe (Quartz is a very good library by the way)?

it's been some months now that I have been using the Logictech MX Keys keyboard. I wanted to give it some time, but the fact that some of my friends bought it as well, and they are also satisfied, validates the fact that it deserves a good review.
