Samuel Johnson said to one of his less motivated students:
I found your speech to be good and original. However, the part that was original was not good. And the part that was good was not original.

You most probably have already read it without me linking to it, but just in case and so that you don’t say later that I didn’t give you the link – “The Tao of Programming“
Thus spake the Master Programmer:
“Though a program is but three lines long, someday it will have to be maintained.”
The Grey Zone
Olga and I watch “The Grey Zone” on DVD. It is a slow and boring movie about the World War II. It is not even so much about the movie, but about a concentration camp and how people were burning other people in crematoriums.
I’ve seen a whole lot of movies about World War II and this is not the among the best of them. It has the point, but it’s not deep on covering it. Of course, noone knows what they are capable of doing in order to survive, unless they have been on the edge. But that is so old and simple…C’mon!
Even Steve Buscemi and Harvey Keitel – two excellent actors – don’t have anything to do in this film. There is nothing they can exercise their talent upon. Pity.
5 out of 10. Find yourself another movie to enjoy.
