Did You Know?

I'm itching to learn more about Erlang, which I believe will soon become a very sought after skill relatively soon as scalability through parallel processing and cloud computing are becoming more mainstream and relevant.

Windtalkers

Saw Windtalkers today. I can't say I was all that impressed. Can't blame this movie though. I'm just all war movie'd out. The realistic depiction of violence is simply getting old. Whether it's shot-off arms in Saving Private Ryan, close-ups of severed legs in Black Hawk Down, or missing legs and cut off heads in Windtalkers, I really start to get the point: War is ugly, people die horrible deaths, and those that don't die will be scared for the rest of their lives, be it physically or psychologically. We get the idea. Let this war movie marathon be over already.

Recommended only if you're not sick of yet another war movie.
