A Sysinternals é uma desenvolvedora de inúmeras ferramentas para o Microsoft Windows. Começou como um portal conhecido como NT Internals que divulgava vários utilitários gratuitos para administrar e monitorar computadores com o sistema operacional da MS.
Esses softwares completam e auxiliam em muitos momentos, onde por vezes achamos que estamos numa encruzilhada. Algumas delas além de as usar como análise a cenários, já me salvaram de sarilhos maiores. Tenha-as à mão, informe-se mais sobre as suas funcionalidades, muitas delas já existem na nossa coleção de aplicações, utilize a nossa área de pesquisa e inteire-se das funcionalidades.
Em 2006, a desenvolvedora foi adquirida pela Microsoft, e agora essas ferramentas podem ser encontradas no site da empresa de Bill Gates.
Agora, dezenas dessas ferramentas estão disponíveis neste pacotão de utilidades para o Windows. Simples e direto, este pacote não contém instalação, apenas os executáveis e os arquivos de ajuda de cada aplicativo.
Uma marca característica das ferramentas da Sysinternals é de ir direto ao ponto, sem a necessidade de instalação e com a possibilidade de usá-las via linha de comando. Todos são extremamente pequenos e não ocupam quase nada de memória RAM.
São dezenas de ferramentas para resolver vários tipos de problema em seu sistema, que vão desde análise de disco rígido, arquivos, conexões de rede e internet, monitores de processos e vários outros.
Rodam desde Windows 98, NT, 2000, Millenium, XP, 2003, até o Windows Vista.

A suíte da Sysinternals é um pacote de pequenos aplicativos para MS Windows, desenvolvido pela Sysinternals e posteriormente comprado pela Microsoft. São bastantes leves e úteis, por este motivo vários usuários desfrutam dos recursos da suíte, em especial administradores de redes e outros profissionais de tecnologia.
Desse modo, a relatividade geral nos obriga a adotar noções radicalmente novas e contra-intuitivas a respeito do espaço, do tempo e da causalidade; por isso, não surpreende que tenha provocado profundo impacto não apenas nas ciências naturais como também na filosofia, na crítica literária e nas ciências humanas.
Por exemplo, num célebre simpósio realizado há três décadas sobre "Les Langages Critiques et les Sciences de l'Homme", Jean Hyppolite levantou uma questão incisiva sobre a teoria da estrutura e dos signos no discurso científico, de Jacques Derrida.
A perspicaz resposta de Derrida foi ao âmago da relatividade geral clássica: "A constante einsteiniana não é uma constante, não é um centro. É o próprio conceito de variabilidade _é, finalmente, o conceito do jogo. Em outras palavras, não é o conceito de alguma coisa _de um centro a partir do qual um observador pode dominar o campo_, mas o próprio conceito do jogo".
Em termos matemáticos, a observação de Derrida liga-se à invariância da equação de campo de Einstein sob difeomorfismos (auto-aplicações da variedade espaço-temporal infinitamente diferenciáveis mas não necessariamente analíticas) não-lineares do espaço-tempo. O ponto-chave é que esse grupo de invariância "age transitivamente": isso significa que qualquer ponto do espaço-tempo, caso exista, pode ser transformado em qualquer outro. Dessa forma, o grupo de invariância de dimensão infinita dissolve a distinção entre observador e observado; o de Euclides e o G de Newton, antes imaginados constantes e universais, são agora percebidos em sua inelutável historicidade; e o observador putativo se torna fatalmente de-centrado, desconectado de qualquer ligação epistêmica com um ponto do espaço-tempo que não pode mais ser definido apenas pela geometria.
Alan Sokal é professor de física na Universidade de Nova York. Tem colaborações científicas na Itália e no Brasil (Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais). Durante o governo sandinista, ensinou matemática na Universidade Nacional da Nicarágua. Junto com o belga Jean Bricmont escreve "Les Impostures Scientifiques des Philosophes (Post-)Modernes" _em que se examinam as bobagens matemáticas de Lyotard, Baudrillard, Deleuze, Guattari e Virilio.
Além das referências do texto, o "caso Sokal" apareceu nas primeiras páginas do "New York Times", do "International Herald Tribune" e do "Observer". Naturalmente, está dando origem a considerável trânsito de e-mails na Internet. Home pages que vale a pena visitar:
Lua is a small, fast, interpreted scripting language. Lua is the result of a merger of a configuration language (SOL) and a data entry language (DEL) . Lua's original goal was to be an extensible embedded scripting language inside software applications. Lua has been highly successful as an embedded scripting language and is used in many games, firmware and software applications. With the recent addition of modules, Lua now has a standard method to load libraries. Lua together with Lua libraries enables a complete standalone scripting language.
Lua's unique focus on extensibility, simplicity, efficiency and portability make it a small yet powerful scripting language. Lua is often used as a Domain Specific Language due to its small size, embeddability and portability. Lua supports a small set of general features and provides meta-mechanisms to allow the programmer to support programming styles of their choice.
Lua was developed by Roberto Ierusalimschy, Luiz Henrique de Figueiredo, and Waldemar Celes at the Pontifical University of Rio de Janeiro (PUC-Rio), in Brazil.
Lua means Moon in Portuguese, so be ready for libraries with references to space or the moon, and enjoy.
2. What is Lua for Windows?
Lua for Windows is a 'batteries included environment' for the Lua scripting language on Windows.
Lua for Windows combines Lua binaries, Lua libraries with a Lua-capable editor in a single install package for the Microsoft Windows operating system. Lua for Windows contains everything you need to write, run and debug Lua scripts on Windows. A wide variety of libraries and examples are included that are ready to use with Microsoft Windows. Lua for Windows runs on Windows 2000 and newer versions of Windows. Lua and its associated libraries are also available for other operating systems, so most scripts will be automatically cross-platform.
