Cloudy, with a Chance of Fish. Literally !

An interesting reading I got this morning was about a small town of 700 in Australia, Lajamanu, that had an interesting rain. A fishy rain! While quite freaky, apparently fish rain is not too rare, a documentary video below accounts about 600 occurrence in a year. The interesting thing about this one is that the [...]

Git resources for svn users

Ezra at Sourceforge

I was looking for my exact username in Sourceforge, so I searched for ‘ezra.’ Look what I found: an open source project named after me! http://sourceforge.net/projects/ezra/ I know, I know… It was probably not named after this pompous and megalomaniac Ezra…

Tribute

While graduating from Penn State, I bulk-applied to any jobs in the school job bank that has a word ‘Open Source’ in the description. My resume was attractive. Stated in there, a thesis about using Ant-based algorithm to solve an NP-complete problem. Spikesource wanted someone who can speak Apache Ant, the build tool. I was [...]
