I can’t decide if it’s obnoxious or beautiful irony that drives home the idea of the article.

Articles from this site pop up occasionally. Something about the background color causes me to see a medium-sized bright spot in my vision after a few minutes. Due to this, I have …

Was just looking at this article yesterday and it inspired me to try it myself. Trying it out today, my fingers became really sore from trying to navigate. Can't imagine using this…

I've read his book "Domain Modeling Made Functional" without much prior knowledge of F#. He provides some compelling examples and some of it ended up inspiring how I write OO code.…

It is unfortunate that this field underestimates the importance of the "people" part in favor of the "computer" part. There's definitely a balance to be stricken. I do believe that…

I've found embedding raw SQL into my code has been beneficial in two ways: 1. Hot reloading code. As a Java developer, this is important for prototyping as I can iterate quicker. 2…

I've wanted to spend time on Pharo for over a year now but the blurriness gives me a headache. Occassionally I'll check back during a new release to see if they fixed the hidpi iss…

This is the one thing I found that prevented me from getting far with Clojure. I love the language and the concepts...but there's no stable well-documented go to tool that I can us…
