Pacman 5, una nueva versión de la famosa herramienta de ArchLinux
Hace unas horas hemos conocido a través de la web oficial de ArchLinux la noticia del lanzamiento de una nueva versión de Pacman, el famoso gestor de paquetes e instalador de Arch Linux. Pacman 5 ya está presente en la versión oficial y seguramente muchos de vosotros ya tendréis esta versión en vuestro sistema gracias al sistema Rolling Release que ArchiLinux utiliza en su distribución.
Pacman 5 ofrece varios cambios técnicos que facilita el uso y reduce los problemas que muchos usuarios tienen cuando usan ArchLinux y tienen algunos paquetes rotos en el sistema. Entre estos problemas está los sistemas que hacían que hubiese un sistema de bloqueo.
Pero lo más importante de esta actualización de Pacman es que los sistemas basados en ArchLinux dejarán de utilizar archivos .pacorig para utilizar archivos .pacnew. Esto hará que Pacman tenga una depuración mejor de su base de datos de las aplicaciones que hemos instalado o tenemos instaladas.
Pacman 5 mejorará la gestión de los paquetes que utiliza el sistema
Aún así hemos de recordar que esta noticia no es algo importante o trascendental para los usuarios finales de ArchLinux ya que el funcionamiento de Pacman para instalar paquetes o programas en vuestros sistema operativo seguirá siendo igual, es decir, escribir:
# pacman -S <i>nombre_paquete1</i> <i>nombre_paquete2</i> ...
Al igual que ocurre con ArchLinux, el resto de distribuciones que se basan en Arch y no tengan Pacman bloqueado también recibirán esta actualización y sus mejoras, así usuarios de Manjaro, Chakra y Parabola también recibirán sus correspondientes actualizaciones de Pacman.
La verdad es que Pacman es un gestor más rápido que apt-get, sin embargo tanto los usuarios de unos como los del otro ya están acostumbrados a escritura y es más díficil para un experto que para un novato el utilizar estos sistemas, sin embargo todos tienen sus virtudes y Pacman también.
El artículo Pacman 5, una nueva versión de la famosa herramienta de ArchLinux ha sido originalmente publicado en Linux Adictos.

Samsung Galaxy S7 unveiling scheduled for February 21
It’s been a couple of days since the first official-looking images of the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge were leaked online, and now Samsung has come forward to officially announce an announcement date for the next flagships.
Samsung has put together a quick video — coming in at just under 15 seconds — to show off a Gear VR headset on someone’s face, as they reach out for a virtual box that looks strikingly similar to Samsung’s Unpacked box. And then there’s a hashtag that tells us the company has plans to show off the “#TheNextGalaxy,” followed by a February 21 announcement date.
Of course, Samsung hasn’t made any confirmation that the Galaxy S7 or Galaxy S7 edge is what they’ll show off at the event, and one might even consider that virtual reality might have something to do with the event, but it’s a safe bet that the Galaxy S6 follow-up is waiting in that box to be shared with the world.
You can check out the video below.
Are you looking forward to the Galaxy S7 or Galaxy S7 edge?

3D Printing Used To Create 4D Flowers That Change Shape Over Time
With Valentine’s Day just two weeks away, science really is upping the stakes in exactly which flowers to buy your loved one on this Hallmark Holiday to show them how much you really care. First up, astronaut Scott Kelly showcased his #SpaceFlower Zinnia that have bloomed on the International Space Station, but more recently researchers at Harvard created a ‘four dimensional’ 3D printed flower. While three dimensions are easy enough to get your head around, these scientists added in a fourth dimension for good measure and to ‘throw some shapes’; time.

Time Is Running Out On Microsoft’s Free 15GB OneDrive Storage, Rescue It Today Or It’s Gone
Microsoft may have bit off more than it could chew last year with its over-ambitious free offering of 15GB OneDrive cloud storage subscriptions to Windows users and 15GB complimentary camera roll, in addition to its bulk storage. Not to mention the OneDrive $10 per month “unlimited” storage tier that allowed access to Office 365 and unlimited OneDrive for up to four other users tied to a Microsoft account seemed a bit generous too. Redmond got in such a bind in its efforts to push OneDrive (and Office 365) everywhere on Windows devices that it had to rescind its offer in November last year due to “rampant service abuse.”

How The ETL Bottleneck Will Kill Your Business
The landscape of data is growing rapidly. We now have access to new forms of big data, but also many high quality curated data sets from APIs, from the IoT, from server logs, from web crawling and on and on. But none of this data comes in a form that is ready for use to solve the problems of your business. In order to make the data useful, you must move it around, transform it, distill it, combine it with other data, address any quality issues, and deliver it to a repository used for reporting and analytics. This process in the past was known as ETL. Without increasing the capacity for ETL, companies will find themselves with a lot of data they cannot put to use.
