A short post on history of programming languages, systems' simplicity, and, surprise-surprise, Go.

"Somewhere between Objective-C and Swift you ended up with one framework from the past, one framework from the future, and one tangled mess in the present."

A short post from our JS neighbors: Angular is too complex, it's harder to use it than not to use it, let's just switch to vanilla JS with a little bit of jQuery.

A bunch of quotes from respectable programmers from the Coders at Work book.

Outstanding bug! Someone has spotted a ~49.7 days period in the count of used CPU cores. Spoiler: integer overflow. Go read what has actually happenned!

Cowabunga, dogs!
This post is just too good to try to describe it. Most tech content is bullshit. There's bullshit everywhere. Follow the white rabbit to get the rest.

Awesome stuff!
The Grug Brained Developer.
A long post about different aspects of our job written in a "Hulk angry" style.
Almost any line could be an amazing quote, I've picked these:
- "grug brain developer not so smart, but grug brain developer program many long year and learn some things although mostly still confused"
- "Microservices: grug wonder why big brain take hardest problem, factoring system correctly, and introduce network call too"
- "javascript developers call very special complexity demon spirit in javascript "callback hell" because too much closure used by javascript libraries very sad but also javascript developer get what deserved let grug be frank"

Not sure how to summarize this post. Author shares his thoughts on soft and languages, experiments with UI-frameworks, and, finally, implements a JVM language. It's a longread, but it's worth it.

Nice talk! Jack Rusher - Stop Writing Dead Programs. Why do we write programs the way we do?

Stumbled upon this nice github repo: a collection of posts describing how to implement something. BitTorrent client? Be my guest. Cryptocurrency? Easy. Your own shell? You're welcome.

It's hard to say what this talk is about. Let me sum it up like this: "there's a lot of complexity in tech around us, we're all struggling, don't worry, it's okay to understand only a part of the whole thing".
