> Kratos has the most extensive and thorough documentation and example library of all modern web application frameworks, making it a breeze to get started with the framework.
I agree, totally worth reading, but when I read it in grad school I found it exceedingly dry. kinda had to choke it down. Certainly worth it and I'll probably listen to the Audible recording for a refresher when I need another book
Not specifically about programming, but "Every Tool's a Hammer" by Adam Savage was really good. Tons of good information in here, and it tickles the Mythbusters itch.
Are you looking for books about a programming language? or about methodologies, patters, best practices, etc.
As far as about specific programming languages, personally I think the internet is a far better resource. Books are better for the "Soft"er skills (communication, design, etc)
Here are a few I've enjoyed:
* The Phoenix Project
* Accelerate
* Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World
* Rework
Finally, if you've never read "How to win Friends & Influence people", do it now! I'm 34 and for whatever reason put off reading this until last month. I wish I had read that book 10 years ago. I'll definitely be adding it to my re-read list as there is a TON of good advice for building relationships, which is arguably more important than many technical things.
I've read this twice. Enjoyed it both times and have referred frequently back to it. I second this wholeheartedly
Also, random side note, here's an interesting talk given by Ashley Williams on Rust that refers to the book: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pn-1so-Ibsg (Zen and the Art of Convincing Your Company to Use Rust)
can't tell if april fools or awesome thing. lol. definitely don't release this kind of thing on April Fools Day. Awesome idea though and I'd love to see the implementation
The April Fool's joke was that I'd even bother spending my time trying to learn this, but I assure you, it's all real! I linked to this elsewhere in the thread, but here's a Twitch VOD of practically nonstop typing tests for a few hours: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/404585365
(it's not really worth watching if you're satisfied with the YouTube video )
Yea I saw your design doc. Impressive project. I only questioned it because looking at your YouTube it seemed that you had a history of posting on April 1st. Which, I really appreciate learning how to hack. Now I am getting everything free from Amazon. But don’t tell the CIA
