As much as I am excited about StarCraft II, chances are I won’t ever play it. The game is released only for PC and Mac, and I am a PlayStation 3 man these days. But whatever the case, this is a huge event in the gaming world.
Hundreds of wildfires followed last week all time high high temperature and drought. Dry forests and wind is not the best combination for fire safety. As a result, more than 40 people dead and more than 1500 houses burned down across the country. And with no changes in the weather, it’s probably not the end of it yet.
My grandfather’s house got nearly burned down by the wildfire as well. Luckily, in the last moment there was a change in wind direction which turned the fire away. Even if nobody died in my home city, fire destroyed more than 500 hectares of the forest. That’s 5,000,000 square meters!
Big Picture blog covers the story.
I came across “Men in Black 2” trailer today. I got excited … until I realized that the movie was released back in 2002. And I somehow missed it altogether. Never heard of it. IMDB rating of 5.6 out of 10 tries to explain how come I never saw it. But still. Here is the trailer.

Here is a brilliant passage from an article “Too Smart for Git“:
Git follows Linux’s philosophy of refusing to protect you from yourself. Much like Linux, Git will sit back and watch you f*ck your sh*t right up, and then laugh at you as you try to get your world back to a state where up is up and down is down. As far as source control goes, not a lot of people are used to this kind of free love.
Excellent!
