Scattered
It’s been a fairly
scattered few weeks. I’ve been jumping between books and things I want to poke.
In no particular order the books/documentation I’ve perused over the last week
or two:
- Old Man’s War
- The Ghost Brigades
- The Pragmatic Programmer: From Journeyman to Master
- Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Code
- How to Succeed in Anything by Really Trying
- Iphone in Action: Introduction to Web and SDK Development
- Programming Erlang: Software for a Concurrent World
- EventMachine documentation
- Forgotten Realms Campaign Guide
Of these, I managed to complete Old Man’s War in about a day (awesome book). The Ghost Brigades took about two days (another awesome book). Luckily, I haven’t been able to find the third book in the series in a look bookstore.
The rest of them, well it’s been a fairly random ride. I’ve been enjoying all of the books I just haven’t had the attention span to give a push all the way through any of them. I think this is more a side effect of not having found a project to work on yet. We use EventMachine a lot at work, so that would be interesting to poke at, I also have a few iPhone app ideas I’d like to kick out. Or, maybe, I’ll got play Fear 2 instead.
