Yesterday I took part in the 20th annual conference of MSC Software. This company was formed in the US in 1963. Their goal was to develop a program for finite element analysis.

Про бег

В прошлое воскресенье открыл сезон на Московском полумарафоне с временем 1.41. Видно что организаторы забега работают над ошибками и с каждым разом у них получается все лучше и лучше. Ну а сегодня сделал уже полноценную пробежку в Вашингтоне (который штат). Тут попадаются потрясающе красивые тропинки, где никто ни то что не бегает, но даже не […]
