Has the course been useful to you in a professional setting? I mean, have you been able to apply what you’ve learned so far?

That looks interesting. If you don’t mind me asking. What did you learn there that you couldn’t learn from books or talks?

+1. King’s is amazing, IMO. Very didactic and covers C in depth.

Oh what a shame, I was planning to sign up for ACM next week. Unfortunately, that was a predictable move from O’Reilly. I bet most of the folks signing up for ACM were actually after O’Reilly’s contents. I think the only cheaper alternative

+1 for Cantrill. I got their SAA last year and learned a lot. It's the most comprehensive AWS online course AFAIK. You not only learn stuff for the certification but also learn many 'whys' and there's lots of practice.

Mitchell Hashimoto has published a blog post describing how he approaches complex codebases. That might give you an idea where to start. https://mitchellh.com/writing/contributing-to-complex-projec...

DeepL is unbelievable great! It's very flexible, it has informal and formal mode, presents several synonymous for some words, and so on.

The best book I've ever found so far is this one: https://www.springer.com/gp/book/9783030338350 The author builds a small relational database from scratch in java. It supports only a few types and not all SQ

This is a good illustration but I'm not sure if follow your rationale. You said that from 0900-1700 you belong to $COMPANY, contractually. But if you start working earlier or later, say 1500-2300, that would be fine? As long as you wor

Microservices in Action by Morgan Bruce and Paulo A. Pereira. Very good book not only in theory but with practical examples. Covers desing, deployment, observability and so on.

Even though Pharo has evolved a lot from the original smalltalk, the main ideas remain the same. And nowadays the most active development is done by the pharo team. They not only build the software but also tons of high quality content. I r

Awesome work, OP. I'm a really fan of your work, you make solid stuff! How many more parts do you plan to do?

Can you please name its title? I'm curious about it.

by miguendes 5y ago
Even if you can't get an internship you can still learn from real world projects from big companies (or solo devs!) by checking their open source projects. You won't have a mentor but you can still learn something. What I suggest

Ah got it, I see what you mean now. In cases like this I had to build the wheel and install it which is not great indeed.

by miguendes 5y ago
You actually can but it's not documented I guess. I remember finding it when I dug the source code. [tool.poetry.dependencies] my-package = { "path" = "path/to/package", develop = true } This way you can p

Poetry does create wheels without a setup.py. In fact, on my last job we got rid of all setup.py we had in favour o poetry. It cannot replace all setup.py use cases, but for pure python packages it can replace it completely.

Interested to know the source of this income. Is it through affiliated links? Selling your product?

It's worth mentioning that via ACM you only have access to books + videos. Quote from ACM's email: ``` Effective Monday, June 15, 2020, O'Reilly Media will no longer offer the following learning formats through ACM's O&#

I use hashnode because I wanted to spend more time writing than configuring a blog engine. So far I'm happy as it allows a bunch of customization and you own the content (it backs up the md files to your gitbub). There's also the

Nice! I'm planning on learning haskell to learn more about FP and this might be useful. I wish problems sets were released as well. But having the lectures is already a great stuff. I can always fallback to exercism.io for practice.
