September 12th, 2006When thinking about what makes an effective programmer I realized that as with any advanced skill you learn what are the best techniques to do something and you end up using them together as an atomic procedure. You no longer think of the best way to get information from a form and save it into database. You’ve brushed it up already and now you use it without thinking twice. You surely have a set of functions / objects to do it but that’s not my point. I’m talking about the patterns, not their implementation.
So how do I take a short cut so that I don’t have to waste my time with inventing my own patterns. I answered to myself: RTFM :-)
Welcome
September 10th, 2006The reason why I have ever started this blog was to share good ideas with you, the accidental visitor. And hopefully to learn new things through your comments.
I’m working on a post about a book I read (Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Code) so subscribe to my RSS feed to get it fresh.
I plan to end all of my posts with a set of questions to stir up the conversation and to guide your comments to topics that I’m insterested in. Read further to see what I come up with to start.
