Peter-Paul Koch:

JavaScript is already there. On a couple of billion devices.

I agree with him. But as they say, it’s essential to keep those people who know a thing can’t be done from bothering the people who are doing it.

When Call of Duty doesn’t seems that challenging anymore, or when you finished all those side quests in Assassin’s Creed, try this. It should keep your brain in great condition.

Program This is a site designed for the everyday code junkie who’s caught between great ideas. It is designed to feed off your boredom, and allow you to perfect your craft when you just can’t think of something to program.

Git users now have the choice of using Github for public projects (a la Twitter) and Bitbucket for private projects (Google Plus). I think that is how most people are going to use it.

A big advantage for Bitbucket users is the ability to have unlimited private repositories for free. This means you can store every line of code you’ve ever written in one place without paying a cent.

Canang sari offering at Blue Lagoon beach. June 2011.

This is called canang sari. If you ever visit Bali, you will find a lot of these. It’s an offering to the Gods, a way to say thank you, a prayer to the heaven.

Pupuan Paddy Field

Pupuan paddy field panorama, September 2011

A typical paddy field in Pupuan, Blimbing. In Bali, paddy field use a unique irigation system for terasering called Subak: > Subak is the name of water management (irrigation) system for paddy fields > on Bali island. For Balinese, irrigation is not simply providing water for > the plant’s roots, but water is used to construct a complex, pulsed > artificial ecosystem. Paddy fields in Bali were built around water > temples and the allocation of water is made by a priest.

Subak is more than just a way to get water to the rice in the field. It is a ritualized system and has been preserved from the late eight century.

Notice how the Chrome browser just say Yes on the browser support, without any version number? That is the result of their break neck release pace.The users don’t talk about version number anymore. It’s irrelevant. And that is the direction Firefox is taking with their every six weeks Rapid Release.
