Top technology or peculiar interest.
My personal web crawler and my ads-free, anonymous, ultra-fast and malware-free search engine.
I wrote my own database in C and Python (accessing it in PHP) to boost speed and enhance auditing and debugging, then I started indexing all the Internet with a spider coded by myself from scratch.
You can find informations and browse the web without any dangerous active content: a safe and open technology that can interpret natural languages in near real-time, making comparisons and answering questions without AI-slop.
My incomplete fencing bibliography of old and rare books.
I started to write this bibliography in 2004 and in these years I reviewed the best books about ancient martial arts: medieval sword figthing, western european self-defence, old italian fencing, one and two hands stick fighting, knife fighting and fencing, etc.
I report weight, size, number of pages and figures, binding, cover and sleeve jacket conditions and characteristics, complete book index, techincal notes and reviews.
The stick broderhood of Genoa hands down the ancient martial art of stick fighting as was practiced by the old sailors in Genoa in the fourteenth century.
We use one-hand-stick (walking stick) and one-and-a-half/two hand sticks (ancient stick), the "bone braker" - a very short stick, Genoan knives and Gambetto - the ancient bare-hands art of self-defence.
All kind of resources ara available: videos, book resources, various infos, contacts, etc.
These sites cannot be updated on a regular basis and are all about fun and hobbies.

When I was a child my father filmed me with a super-8 camera and he introduced me to movie film cutting and editing. My cinema addiction is his fault! Now we use digital cameras (also in 3d), but my film camera is still working and I dream of shooting a short film in super-8.
I like taking pictures of my city (and other European cities) by night, on characteristic views, by feet and over exotic vehicles. I like to picture the world in black and white and I like astrophotography too (this time also in colors) and in these pages you can enjoy some of my works.
