The Pragmatic Craftsman :: Simplicity from complexity ::

This week on eWeek.com they have a Tech Outlook 2004

Outlook on Mobile Computing — personally I think that’s going to be big.

2004 for Linux: grows up (or blows up)

What else, I think Mobile, Wireless & Linux will come out winners, and not only for 2004 but over next several years. Mobile, since you get enough speed that you do not need a desktop, plus more cool gadgets are becoming more powerfull, like PDAs and cell-phones; Wireless, because the technology is just cool; and Linux, because it’s free and getting more reliable and user friendly. Also, everything — all of the gadgets — will get smaller and be wireless: that will make them better!

SOLID principles come in handy here. Especially, "Open of Extension, Closed for Modification." One of the best principles I've learned. - 6 hours agoI actually try to follow @unclebobmartin's rule all the time. Sort of. I try not to make it worse. But to make it better? Great challenge! - 6 hours agoAlways check a module in cleaner than when you checked it out (via @unclebobmartin in 97 Things Every Progr.). I love the idea! - 7 hours agoI put Code Complete #1 over Martin's book because it has "awaken" me as a programmer. But other than that, Martin's book is the best! - 1 day ago@mcory1 First of all, @unclebobmartin is my hero! Agile Software Development, Principles, Patterns, and Practices is my #2. SOLID rules! :) - 1 day ago
