I wrote a small utility for Windows. It indexes a hard-drive and allows to find a file by name in under a second. It might surprise you that I spent more time on things that are not related to core functionality. Let’s call it a tax of shipping desktop software. Here are some of...

Making money with a product: A myth?

from Joel Gascoigne [alt+shift+b] in programming

over a year ago
* Tweet [https://twitter.com/share] * * Buffer [http://bufferapp.com/add] * I’ve realised there was a time I didn’t believe people would pay for a product. In my mind, it was a myth. As an entrepreneur, it’s so vital to overcome that. First, a coffee shop conversation I

Requirements change until they don't

from Computer Things [alt+shift+b] in programming

2 months ago
Recently I got a question on formal methods1: how does it help to mathematically model systems when the system requirements are constantly changing? It doesn't make sense to spend a lot of time proving a design works, and then deliver the product and find out it's not at all what...

Notes from “An approach to computing and sustainability inspired from permaculture” by Devine LuLinvega

from Jim Nielsen’s Blog [alt+shift+b] in programming

a year ago
I am interested in computers as a way to do more than consume. That’s how Devine starts their talk from Strangeloop. I’ve linked to them before, as they have an interesting perspective on computing in the 21st century (given, in part, their environment of living on a boat). I...

Proving that every program halts

from ntietz.com blog - technically a blog [alt+shift+b] in programming

2 weeks ago
One of the best known hard problems in computer science is the halting problem. In fact, it's widely thought[1] that you cannot write a program that will, for any arbitrary program as input, tell you correctly whether or not it will terminate. This is written from the framing of...

When I was growing up, I was one of the first generations of students to have a strikingly different education from previous generations. I grew up under the Bush administration’s No Child Left Behind policies. Classes teaching important life skills like home economics and...

When Google killed Google Reader, the bloggosphere took a severe hit and the content quality went down because there weren't enough readers to justify the effort it takes to maintain a high quality blog.

What's left is a decaying wasteland of blogs, most abandoned, a lot are now SEO spam, and 99% are not worth reading. BoredReading is a way to read the remaining great blogs that survived the ice age.

To add your favorite blog, please suggest it here! I get emails every day which helps me maintain a high quality selection of blogs!
