More mana from the Czech lands: IntelliJ IDEA open-sourced

Take THAT, Eclipse!

UPDATE: This announcement is so popular, the JetBrains site is down. Never seen that before.

Surprisingly, there really is more to life than programming

Since I started this blog I have stuck consistently to programming topics. But I feel like posting a touch more broadly. Here are some of my favorite links:

• John Baez's amazing This Week's Finds in Mathematical Physics
• The ever cool Astronomy Picture of the Day
• Chris Muir's Day by Day Cartoon, the modern Doonesbury
• The Lord of the Rings Online™ - yes, I play computer games, bet you weren't guessing that one
• Physics with a sharp edge from Luboš Motl's The Reference Frame
• Is there no end to the clever Wikipedia?

And when I'm not browsing the Internet, I write classical music, cook freestyle, and thoroughly enjoy Rebecca, Greg and Ben.
