There’s no question that different programming languages are useful for different projects — it’s hard to justify completing every single project that comes across your desk in the same language, unless you only know the one. But while it’s often a good idea to be able to code in different language Read More
I generally prefer to only post reviews of books and other resources that I’m completely enthusiastic about. I don’t want to waste your time or mine on something that isn’t worth the effort; at the very least, I don’t want to have to read a crappy book all the way through, just for the sake of writ Read More
The life you have today is not the life that you have to have tomorrow. That may sound like an oversimplification, but the truth is that we each make a choice everyday to continue to live the lives we already have; just getting out of bed each morning is a choice we make.
