My third attempt 2 years ago

It’s the third time I am starting to read “The pragmatic programmer”. I hope I’ll manage to finish it this time and take sme notes on the most interesting parts. Anyway, I am looking forward to being a little bit further along than the 30 pages I am now at.



Refreshing 2 years ago

You will improve you’re coding after reading this book, just go to amazon right now :-)



Great read, and not just for programming 2 years ago

Embrace DRY (don’t repeat yourself) and the idea of not living with ‘broken windows’ i.e. things that you don’t like but are tempted to ‘live with’ or ‘work around’ and you will transform your life. Since reading this book I’ve done a 180 in my professional life, becoming a better coder and more organized person in general. I’m currently working on becoming better at shell scripting since I waste a lot of time running repetitive commands and struggling with vi, but I’ll get there one day.



Zoidberg has got to complete some of these goldarn goals!

Great Book 3 years ago

Loved it – read it on holiday on the plane. I can’t wait to put these things into practice at my job. Pragmatic is the word – just very common sense stuff.



Finished It Last Night 3 years ago

The book can be a little dry (no pun intended) at times, but overall it’s a great resource for programmers. Even if you think you have a great approach to programming, this book will (re)enforce good, clean, efficient techniques. Very little code is actually presented in the book. Instead, they deal more the way to approach and organize your entire project.

I’ve been using little tidbits of wisdom from the book here and there at work. My coding is getting DRYer by the day!
