I use Remote Desktop it a lot, and was warned about the changing name beforehand. And yet when one day the old application disappeared from my dock, I had the same reaction. I thought company IT or a macOS update might’ve screwed me over.

I’m used to it now, but that was a strange day.

Does the team for your team have a theme in Teams yet?

Are you sure it’s not appje?

And how is lichdom treating you? Have you raised an army of skeleton warriors yet?

And vice versa, you don’t need to know how to centre a div to create a game in assembler. I’m comfortable using pointers and managing memory, but don’t ask me to do anything with web UI.

I want faster horses.

Finally someone mentions edlin! Real programmers don’t need to see more than a single line at a time.

Kernighan & Ritchie, the C programming language. Yes it’s old, and about one specific language that you may never use. But it’s also very well written and can give good insight into how to tame computers. And it’s short.

Design Patterns by Gamma, Helm, Johnson, and Vlissides (the Gang of Four). Not so much a book to read as a reference with patterns to at least be aware of.

No, only the password is.

There is a paper titled “What Every Computer Scientist Should Know About Floating-Point Arithmetic” by David Goldberg. It’s a bit theoretical, but IMO it’s a must-read for any programmer doing more than the occasional floating point calculation. It goes beyond just limited precision and rounding errors.

Randall Munroe. You may know him from such gems as xkcd 3472 and 6548.

It’s also a very good introduction to programming, and just a good read. Probably the best book about programming I’ve ever read.

He was not lynched. Lynching implies killing. He was assaulted, yes, but not lynched.

Don’t touch the leather.

Hell: from macOS to WSL.

Just generate the training material, duh.

Pre-commit code reviews, preferably in person or at least live, are a great way to learn and teach. They explain what they did and why, you suggest alternatives.

Doing it pre commit is best because it it’s done later, they’ve already moved on.

And the learning goes both ways.

The canine revolution has started. They’ve been playing us for fools, making us think it’s the feline population we had to fear, all the while planning this.
