Code Bards

By now, most people have heard of Technical Debt; the cost of messy code that grows over time, like interest on an overdue loan. For the last couple of years I've been talking at No Fluff Just Stuf...

More on standing desks. Essential kit.

var count = 0; var fibonacci = function (n) { count++ return n < 2 ? n : fibonacci(n - 1) + fibonacci(n - 2) }; for (var i = 0; i <= 10; i += 1) { console.log('// ' + i + ': ' + fibonacci(i) ); }; console.log("fibonacci called " + count + " times"); var fibonacci2 = (function ( ) { var memo = [0, 1]; var fib = function (n) { var result = memo[n]; if (typeof result !== 'number') { result = fib(n − 1) + fib(n − 2); memo[n] = result; } return result; }; return fib; }( ));

This has been a great help. So many plugins... so little time...

I never considered node.js to be a contender but this blog disagrees.

Test-Driven Web Development with Python O'Reilly's book preview service is fantastic learning source. TDD is necessary pain.
