This is a great course from Paul Kelly at Imperial College - I took it when studying there and found it fascinating, although I should have worked much harder on it.
You should have a look at the lecture notes. If the course is too advanced, you can look for its predecessor, which introduces RISC architecture very well and constitutes a strong starting point for anyone interested in this field.
They don't seem to be making a lot, considering all the hype surrounding Ghost for the last year or more.
I am using Ghost (self hosted) for my blog and find it brilliant but I think the ecosystem needs more time to develop and sustain itself. So the jury is still out I guess...
I've always wanted to read Treasure Island but just never quite got the time to do it.
Approaching my 30s and working on side projects, I spend most of my reading time on startup books and articles now. It's highly informative and sometimes entertaining, but it feels I am missing out on other things.
Maybe I need a little fiction to broaden my horizons...
Reading apps on my phone have completely rejuvenated my fervor for reading again. There's tons of free books out there, and there's several services that let you pay a monthly fee and then read all of the books you want. I also know that my library checks out digital books as well.
Having a book on my phone means I can snatch some reading time whenever, wherever- waiting at the dr's office, at lunch, while on public transit, whenever. It's awesome.
Fiction serves a purpose, at least IMO. Maybe not as much in adulthood (but that hasn't stopped me), but certainly in childhood. Check out Neil Gaiman's erudite reasoning:
The first book I ever requested from a library when I was 6 years old, on my first day of school. It was the portuguese translation, but I liked it a lot. Read it again some 10 years later.
Treasure Island is not a long or complicated book. It is pretty much for kids or young adults. It is perfect for a lazy day in nature. There are also nice audiobooks of it.
It's still very readable to me. I'd definitely proofread more if I were him but no need to be so harsh (I don't know if English is his first language).
It was overall a long and well written post, with a clear structure and insightful content.
Also, the article could have been spotless grammatically speaking but utterly uninteresting - I would certainly enjoy the opposite more.
The message is more important than the technique at the end of the day.
It's really cool to see more projects tackling location problems. The API is very simple which is another great plus.
Had Redis Geo been around at the time we replatformed at Hailo we would have given it some serious consideration. But instead we have developed our own solution and open sourced a library in Go called "geoindex" to store and retrieve geo information: https://github.com/hailocab/go-geoindex .
