Looking forward to trying this
Very exciting -- a new major version of Jenkins has been a long time coming. > "Jenkins 2.0 is a drop-in replacement of the Jenkins 1.x series of releases and fully backward compatible. There is practically no reason…
I feel like Gary Bernhardt gets live coding demos right, both with his DAS casts, and his conference talks. https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/screencasts
This would more aptly be titled 'Software Engineering Courses That Don't Exist, but Should.'
And this is one of the many reasons why I've not used paid IDEs. I feel bad for everyone over a barrel with JetBrains because they've dedicated so much of their time developing in their lovely IDEs (many of my…
I think he's preempting the Windows lock-in argument -- lots of people (including myself) are afraid to start projects using the MS tech stack because it's not portable and doesn't play well with non-MS tech stacks.…
Came here to say just that. Apple seems to be trying to make the case that users don't necessarily need to get in bed with creepy, data-mining-for-profit platforms to receive good service. Whether that's really true, or…
Just bought my first new car in November. I tried really hard to get a used car, but honestly, it just didn't make any sense -- the cost of financing was much higher, and the cost of the vehicle itself was nearly as…
I haven't read the linked book, so I can't comment on which is a better introduction. I will say that having read the Tannenbaum book, it is a very thorough, bottom-up survey, and you will certainly know quite a lot…
Computer Networks by Andrew Tannenbaum is also a great introductory text. http://cse.hcmut.edu.vn/~minhnguyen/NET/Computer%20Networks%...
The best thing about jQuery is that it abstracts away most of the browser-specific quirkiness for you. Using jQuery for that feature alone makes it worth using.
I'm not glad that others don't have it -- I'm just glad that it's non-trivial because it means that learning it is an accomplishment worthy of taking pride in. As far as it being a barrier to entry is concerned, I think…
There is no 'overcoming' of command-line bullshittery -- it's a barrier to entry and computer professionals should be glad that it's non-trivial to become productive with your environment -- the time that you put into…
I'm pretty sure that that is a sarcastic comment...
Thanks for posting this Alex. I really love hearing the others' tales of code enlightenment, and with yours being very similar to my own story, it's especially nice.
I found the git book to be more than adequate enough for explaining the structures and practice patterns of git. http://git-scm.com/book
What exactly is the target audience for Django? I actually love using Python and the Python design philosophy. If I'm not part of the target audience for Django, who is?
Finally, but too little too late in my opinion. I love python, but I would rather use Rails for web stuff at this point. So many 3rd party libraries are needed to do what Rails can do right out of the box.
Thanks for the cast. Often wondered what the purpose of a static method was in Python...
Also, pretty sure this has been posted before, but http://web.archive.org/web/20070814184957/http://www.moolena... is a great collection of tips for making vim pay dividends.
Extra keystrokes add up over time. I wonder how much time I've saved implementing * and # into my movements. Considering that I was either C-f or C-b -ing (or in my earlier days, j and k -ing) through my files, probably…
I think you hit the nail right on the head here. It can be detrimental to try and learn vim (or emacs, for that matter) while trying to get stuff done, but it is necessary to immerse yourself, as it were. For those who…
