Slow Is Smooth, Smooth Is Fast - 25% of Our Time Refactoring

from Boot.dev Blog [alt+shift+b] in programming

1st Sep 2020
My team has been spending less of our “free” time working on bugs and features from the backlog, and more time refactoring our code and tests. As a result, and perhaps somewhat counterintuitively, we’ve noticed a significant increase in our throughput of features and bug fixes.

Asynchronous JavaScript - what is it? (Promises, callbacks, async/await)

from Tinloof - Blog [alt+shift+b] in programming

30th Aug 2020
JavaScript code is executed synchronously. In other words, from top to bottom and one line at a time. First, the code will execute the function and know what to return when getText() is called. Then it assigns the getText() function to the variable text.

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!
