Great reading if you’re doing cutting-edge web development.
An awesome set of slides that teaches graph-theory and the various maze generating algorithms. Even if mathematics aren’t exactly your interest, this set of slides is sure to raise your intelligence a few IQ points.
In this post I present the development model that I’ve introduced for all of my projects (both at work and private) about a year ago, and which has turned out to be very successful.
A very good and recommended read if you do version-controlled code development.
I switch between programming languages quite a bit; I often wondered what happens when having to deal with the different syntaxes, does the syntax allow you to be more expressive or faster at coding in one language or another. I dont really know about that; but what I do know what keys are pressed when writing with different programming languages.
Interesting.
If you don’t understand the motivation behind Git’s design, you’re in for a world of hurt. With enough flags you can force Git to act the way you think it should instead of the way it wants to. But that’s like using a screwdriver like a hammer; it gets the job done, but it’s done poorly, takes longer, and damages the screwdriver.
A very good read for a feel of an ideal Git workflow. Saves you a lot of pain in the future when you need to go digging within the depths of history.
Useful stuff, if you’ve ever got a need to test your regular expression matching.
