The Pragmatic Craftsman :: Simplicity from complexity ::

It’s been some time since we had an update to the HTML language. Actually, it’s been years! After such a long time, things are starting to heat up again. HTML 5 is the next worked-on version. By reading this article, below, I got a glimpse of what’s coming. What can I say? A LOT of changes are coming. Nice improvement, in my opinion.

Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) 5 introduces new elements to HTML for the first time since the last millennium. New structural elements include aside, figure, and section. New inline elements include time, meter, and progress. New embedding elements include video and audio. New interactive elements include details, datagrid, and command.

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
