If you’re reading this article, it means the website is up and running as it’s supposed to. I should put a notice like this everywhere, but why would I need to in the first place? If you’re a regular on my website, then you might have noticed some changes in the past week. A new design, some tweaks here and there but the most important thing of all is the fact that I have changed the hosting provider. Why would I need to do this? The time has come! Switching hosting providers! *sigh*— Stefan Cosma (@stefanbc)...

It's more of a question actually. What's it like to read other's people code and why you should be prepared? Well, the evil doers over at the powerful and evil Abstruse Goose Corporation made this into a bloody good comic. Go read it and then come back, so we can understand what's really going on here. waiting for the reader to come back Well if you made it to this sentence it means we can continue with our philosophical pondering of random stuff about computer programming. In order to answer our questions we first have to look at the standards...
A few weeks ago, I had the unfortunate chance or let's say "opportunity", of working on something without going through my usual workflow. And what did I learn from that experience?

'tis the holiday season! Maybe you're coming or going home for the holidays. Whatever maybe the case, you rejoice the fact that you finally have a break from all the stuff that happened this year. It doesn't matter how well this year went, what's important is that it's all over (Even if you don't want it to be!). We're developers and people say we are a special breed of people (Or so I've heard over the years!), and some of us (If not all!) are geeks (and some are even nerds! But we don't like labels!) and we're proud of...
Lone wolves or night owls, that's how you usually describe your friendly neighborhood developer. He doesn't travel in packs and usually you'll find him sitting at a desk tipping his fingers off on some piece of code that is either to stubborn to run or he has an idea he wants to get of his mind, because as you may know most developers are brilliant geniuses. But why are developers so afraid of the outside world? Well my guess, as somebody on the inside, is that we don't actually like how this world works and we're not on the same...
