An Entrepreneurial Religion – Sjors Provoost

Check out my latest posts on provoost.tumblr.com. Stoïcijns Pensioen ». Mormom Temple in Salt Lake City. Last week I was on a tour. To all sorts of beautiful places like the Ruby Mountains, Grand Tetons, Yellowstone, Kodachrome and Zion. There was a lunch stop in Salt Lake City, where we got a chance to get a guided tour through the Mormom Temple grounds. The big question I was left with after the tour was: how do they get through the obnoxious US immigration system? Entrepreneurs from all over the world...

Astonishments, ten, in the history of version control : Francis Irving
https://www.flourish.org/blog/2011/12/astonishments-ten-in-the-history-of-version-control
Astonishments, ten, in the history of version control. Astonishments, ten, in the history of version control. 8220;If you really want to … truly ancient history, you have to go back to delta decks on punch cards.” ( Jim Rootham. In a world where biographies of cod. Are not just accepted, but rightly popular, it wouldn’t seem entirely crazy to write a history book on how computer programmers store the vital product of their labours – source code. It’s an important subject. The (for now) final end product.

Volatile keyword in C# – memory model explained
http://igoro.com/archive/volatile-keyword-in-c-memory-model-explained
On programming, technology, and random things of interest. Volatile keyword in C# memory model explained. Is a fascinating topic it touches on hardware, concurrency, compiler optimizations, and even math. The memory model defines what state a thread may see when it reads a memory location modified by other threads. For example, if one thread updates a regular non-volatile field, it is possible that another thread reading the field will never. Set loop to false on another thread. Test1 loop = false. This ...

What "Worse is Better vs The Right Thing" is really about
http://yosefk.com/blog/what-worse-is-better-vs-the-right-thing-is-really-about.html
A substitute for anaesthesia. Larr; "It's done in hardware so it's cheap". Aren't side effects fundamental in complexity analysis? What "Worse is Better vs The Right Thing" is really about. August 11th, 2012 wetware. I thought about this one for a couple of years, then wrote it up, and left it untouched for another couple of years. What prompted me to publish it now – at least the first, relatively finished part – is Steve Yegge's post. So what does this have to do with software? 8211; and not. The trade...

Robustness, the forgotten code quality. | Making Good Software
http://www.makinggoodsoftware.com/2010/03/02/robustness-the-forgotten-code-quality
A blog by Alberto G (Alberto Gutierrez). Written by Alberto Gutierrez. March 2nd, 2010 at 5:22 pm. Posted in Software Development Theory. Robustness, the forgotten code quality. From among all the qualities that make good code, robustness is one of my favourites. Robustness can be explained as a measure of how hard is to break someone’s code. The opposite of robust code is fragile code; an example of fragile code would be having a class with all its member variables marked as public. Use of plain constan...

Take your data and Grind it down…. Time Computation Thinking = Constant. Testing post →. I’m an Engineer, Not a Compiler. Recently I had a phone interview where I got asked a variety of Java questions. This kind of thing is standard, and most of the questions were somewhat standard:. What’s the difference between a List and a Set? When would you use one over the other? When might you see deadlock? What is the difference between strong typing and weak typing? This is polymorphism in action! I got the nano...

taw's blog: How to code debuggers
http://t-a-w.blogspot.com/2007/03/how-to-code-debuggers.html
The best kittens, technology, and video games blog in the world. Thursday, March 22, 2007. How to code debuggers. By debugger I mean any tool for low-level analysis of running programs, wheather it single steps, traces execution, or does something else). Most debuggers are written in C, so touching their code is pretty much out of the question. It's hard enough without having to use 30 year old and about 32 time less productive tools. Why would anybody want to write a debugger? Calls to library functions...
