Today I taught a class about The Internet of Things to the BEST Lisboa students.

This is the presentation that I made:

This is the pinterest board with some of the cool Internet of Things stuff that I showed in class.

You can find more information about supply chain traceability in the TrakChain PhD project page.

And this is a sneak peek of the great demo that Nuno Correia prepared for the students:

I would also like to thank Link Consulting for sponsoring the demonstration and the people involved, Mário Romano and João Taborda Gonçalves.

Thanks also to Joana, for being there and helping with the people flow! :)

How to disable Thunderbird mozmsgs

Mozilla Thunderbird has an option to integrate with Mac or Windows email search.
Using this option the emails are no longer stored in the SDB files (many emails in a single file) are stored in multiple and individual files.
This usually results in poor performance, especially if you have many emails.

To disable this option, go to 'Options', 'Advanced', 'General' and unselect the "Allow Windows Search to search message".
You can also unselect the "Enable Global Search and Indexer" option if you do not use the global search.
