Advanced Python network programming

Advanced Python network programming 02/17/2004 10:41 PM

Understanding Network I/O, Part 2 by George Belotsky (via The Farm) is the best tutorial on the subject of network programming I've seen yet. It provides a detailed explanation of simple threaded network clients, thread pools using the Queue module and asynchronous I/O using both Twisted and Python's asyncore library - then discusses the strengths and weaknesses of each approach.

I've also just noticed that O'Reilly provide RSS 1.0 and Atom feeds for each of their authors. Neat.

My company has a subscription to the Safari online library. This is a collection of the best computer books by several publishers, including O'Reilly, Sams Publishing, MT converted to HTML pages. Every month, you get to choose a new set of books to subscribe to. This month, I subscribed to Programming PHP.

I browsed through the chapters that interested me, and this book is a wonderful introduction to PHP. It strikes an excellent balance between introductory material and advanced stuff. For beginners and intermediate users, highly recommended.

Software Review: Advanced Web Ranking 12/17/2004 06:34 PM
The strategy of obtaining high search engine results for a Web site is known as search engine optimization (seo). Once you've selected and implemented your keywords, you need to be able to track them, which could be a time intensive process. Enter the Advanced Web Ranking (AWR) application, a program created for that very purpose. By Lee Underwood. 1108

Waterfield Mac Mini SleeveCase Review +
VertiGo and Cablebuddy Review 04/06/2005 02:46 PM
Waterfield Bags launched a SleeveCase designed specifically for the Mac Mini within weeks of the official Apple announcement. In its default configuration as I received it, the SleeveCase is merely what it claims to be, a case into which a Mac Mini will fit. However, Waterfield offers a configuration with a detachable shoulder strap. (read the review) This makes it very comparable to the eM2 bag we reviewed a few weeks ago...

Primate Programming 11/10/2003 11:16 PM
From Jeffrey Tarter comes new of an important new business model for outsourcing software development. Joe Grossberg thinks the Primate Programming page has "racist overtones." I can see that way of taking it, although (I hope obviously) that's not how I took it. I take it as being about the commodification of software development and a Dilbert-esque swipe at the gullibility and irresponsibility of pointy-haired bosses....

Programming in Starbucks

Programming in Starbucks 06/17/2005 04:55 PM

We got over the hump, it was a bit of a panic at first, but I had made a change on the server at 5AM yesterday and didn't test it properly, and when the 25 new users showed up early on the evening of the 16th, well, that's the condition that failed. And my Internet access at home has been really flaky during the day, so it was down when we hit the problem, so I had to quickly drive to Starbucks to get online.

The good news is that I am actually able to get work done this way, so when I it the road again on July 1, I will be able to continue to move forward on this software, by programming in hotel rooms, Starbucks, public libraries, etc. Internet access is really starting to get ubiquitous.

Pair Programming

Pair Programming 10/29/2003 12:12 AM

I've spent a few hours over the last two days pair programming with Adrian. We're working on a pretty huge project at the moment, and we've just started work on the coding phase, overlapping the design phase. I had tried pair programming a few times before with some success, but this time in particular the benefits of the approach were crystal clear. In total, we've defined 4 database tables, a number of functions and a simple class. Working separately we would almost certainly have created more lines of code. However...

• The code we have produced is free of bugs. That's a pretty bold claim to make, but every line has been extensively discussed, tested and looked over by two pairs of eyes.
• The naming conventions for both the Python code and the SQL are consistent and well thought out. We're both happy with them, we both understand why the names have been chosen and we both know the naming style well enough to continue it throughout the project.
• The coding style itself is ultra-clean and approved by both of us. We have a preference now for everything from quoting styles to whether or not a docstring should finish in a full-stop (it shouldn't). We also know enough to keep these standards going for the rest of the project.
• We learnt stuff from each other. KDE shortcuts, new features in Python 2.3, neat ways of laying out SQL statements, Python functional programming idioms.
• We started coding, or at least started discussing the code, at the time we had scheduled for the start. There was no procrastination.
• At no point did either of us check our email or check any blogs. productivity++!
• We both know the code that we have written inside out and back to front.

Altogether they have been highly productive and successful sessions. Our plan now is to pair program the system core, then work separately on the additional modules that don't have major dependencies on each other. There are only two of us developers working on the project so pair programming the whole thing isn't really practical, but the benefits of working together the core modules are obvious.

One last thing: it was a lot of fun!

Programming Humor

Programming Humor 06/05/2004 05:52 AM

Code Humor Challenge: Some pretty funny examples of developers trying to be funny. People are submitting hundreds of comments of funny code they wrote and tried to get (or succeeded in getting) into production.

One of my previous employers had, for historical reasons, the requirement that all class names be prefixed with "Mc" (McUser, McCheckbox, etc.). I created the class McNugget, complete with methods like McNugget.dip(McNugget.BBQ_SAUCE).

This one's pretty good too:

The Programming Soviet

The Programming Soviet 07/08/2002 02:38 AM
I had an aunt and uncle who were Communists until the end. They saw any flaw in the capitalist sytem as fatal, and they saw hope in the most tired and discredited leaders and systems (my uncle wrote an exultant pamphlet about Yugoslavia under Tito).

I am reminded of my aunt and uncle whenever I read an anti-Microsoft tirade from Doc Searls or Eric Raymond or another card-carrying command-line zealot from the programming Soviet. To these true believers, any Microsoft imperfection spells imminent collapse for the Redmond bourgeoisie. Comes the revolution, it will be from each according to his Open Source and to each according to his Unix. -- Arnold Kling

I don't agree with everything that Arnold says, but it's a thought provoking piece.
