Although the techniques described below won't be very popular nowadays (after all, why bother using C if we're going to write object-oriented code?), they are still quite relevant for embedded systems and other low-level things (kernel development, etc). For example, lots of Linux Kernel subsystems use similar…

Thanks to Ken Hironaka for kindly taking a lot of time to read and fix countless errors in this blog post!
In the interests of creating employment opportunities in the Java programming field, I am passing on these tips from the masters on how to write code that is so difficult to maintain, that the people who come after you will take years to make even the simplest changes. Further, if you follow all these rules…
MOAR DOX! Whenever we ask curl users what they lack in our project and what we should improve, the response is always clear: documentation.

This is a story about JS Bin. I've told one story of JS Bin before, and this is the b-side: the dark side. But remember with everything I share with you, JS Bi…
It's been 418 days since my first Github commit of Go code. In that time I've written a Syslog-to-Kafka producer, a Raft-based distributed SQLite database, a near real-time log search system, and become a core developer of InfluxDB. So if there is one word to summarize Go, it's productive. I haven't had the same burst…

At the very least, you have a very general understanding of it — maybe “it’s what gives us emoji”. That’s about as far as most people’s understanding extends, in my experience, even among programmers. And that’s a…
Lately, as I’ve had more experience with it, I’ve started to warm up to the language Go (aka “golang”).
Having previously been disappointed by the information available on the topic, this is my attempt at categorizing different ways to implement 2D platform games, list their strengths and weaknesses, and discuss some implementation details.
It's not about technology for its own sake. It's about being able to implement your ideas.
One of my colleagues is ex Bloomberg. He tells me there's only one thing I need to know about them: "25 million lines of Fortran !" Apparently they have 1500 coders firefightin…
I'm a fan of Lisp programming languages, but there's an incredible conceptual elegance that struggles to materialise as readable elegance for many unfamiliar programmers. The underlying concepts are incredibly simple, but the learning curve can represent a disproportionate challenge.
This is the second post in a series on Kubernetes , the open source cluster manager. The first post was about the kubelet .
