If you are given a choice, then isn't it easier to pick what you are most familiar with from a productivity standpoint? If your first choice is rejected, then the question comes as to what the next choice has to offer. There is no poin

I think there is a question of progression through your career as well. For talented programmers, (I believe) it is less likely to feel 'stuck' at some point. Over the years, they can handle increasingly more complex challenges wi

Would you think http://bit.ly/recurse-iterate does an okay job of working toward that goal?

Oh, this is a timely discussion. I just wrote an article on this topic: http://bit.ly/recurse-iterate . What I thought was good about go to statement was that it helps us understand how recursion works and how one can elimin

Incidentally, I am reading Cal Newport's "So Good ..." and the thoughts in this article resonate with some of those expressed in Cal's book. Half way through the book right now, and I can say that it is an unusual advice

The essence of the article is about effectiveness of technology/trade in reducing the 'gaps' between the capabilities of workers/artisans results in lowering their average compensation. But I think there's something

I like the essence of this blog post. I have applied similar strategies and although I am not a 100% sure about them being the 'right thing' to do, I am fairly convinced that they are a 'way to go' about learning new thi

Is it the lack of making enough money that bothers you? If you dig deeper, what would you say? If you were to ask yourself "What it is that would keep me motivated?" -- what answer emerges? In his book, "Drive", author D

Kahneman attributes a lot to 'luck' of what experts achieve especially when it comes to predicting something. I am a bit surprised that PG does not give 'shear luck' its fair share. I am assuming that many (most?) of the

I would have said reading, until I realized that some things can be made more explicit in the video. But in most cases, it is by reading. Specific examples were I liked videos explaining something better (or perhaps as good as the book) are

Thank you for this reference! The good measures taken in the past seem to help tremendously. Looking at the drought maps was depressing enough and that was compounded by the fact that the Bay Area does not feel anything like an area that is

This is a very good thought! It's important for an author to break the barrier to entry for the potential readers of his/her work. It's not always easy or practical. Another way of doing this is publishing something in book f

This is a great achievement. Though I am a Vishy Anand fan and I really liked the way the contest was fought, I do think that Carlsen deserved to win. World chess championships, with their rich history are our treasure!

In general, open sourcing is helpful decision (it's also a practical business decision in several cases)! And the possibility of running C# on *nix really creates opportunities in a way that contributors grow. It's a win-win.

"Did you mean?" is great, but "Do you mean?" would be better. Achieving latter in Ruby/JS/... certainly feels harder.

I am still unhappy with wifi detection/configuration and problems with Compiz. But overall, I agree, Ubuntu is getting better.

How'd you compare this with Linux Kernel Development by Robert Love and/or Bovet/Cesati, especially for someone who's a newbie (but curious to learn and work hard)?

by KedarMhaswade 12y ago
Thanks! Do you think it's useful to get this one even if you have used Linux almost exclusively? Will it make it easier for one to get into Kernel development?

It was ASUS U56E-BAL7 (i5/8g/750g). The Wireless card is weird. Every time I install Ubuntu/Linux on it, it works for a while and then it stops working.
