On my work machine, some pre-installed software changes the login screen image daily. The images aren’t labeled, but they are so pleasing to the eye that I often have to photograph them directly from the monitor in order to use Goggles to find the depicted place or the original photo. For instance, yesterday I learned about the existence of a beautiful spot in Spain, Puente Nuevo, and today I am greeted by this beautiful sloth.

The local squirrels are insane. What is the cat doing that a bike is speeding towards? An experienced cat will step off the road and be on guard, ready to jump even further away if needed. All other animals, except the local squirrels, will simply bolt into the bushes out of a sense of self-preservation.

But the squirrels will first try to jump in fright under the wheels, and then, in the very last moment, turn three times and end up on a tree.

It’s happened several times already. When you’re speeding, it’s not funny at all.

Update on my blog about hybris. Created a small tool that shows the structure of templates from the Hybris accelerator. Probably, only Hybris front-end developers will understand it.

In Hybris, there are hundreds of files that refer to each other, some files are included inside others. For instance, productPrimaryImage is incorporated in a couple of dozen other templates, and if you edit it, you should understand the implications. The second purpose of this structure is educational. It shows how a page is assembled. This is not at all obvious from the code, since the inserts are scattered across different files. For example, to assemble a product page, 24 different files are used.
