More Wintellect Blog Posts
/Like last time, I mentioned that I've been blogging more at my Wintellect spot, especially when it comes to F#. Below are a couple of more posts since the last time. There's also a cameo post that mixes F# with Xamarin.
Wintellect F# Blog Post Collection
/I know it seems I've been MIA lately, but the truth is I've actually been blogging quite a bit on F# at my spot in Wintellect for a little while. Below is a collection of what's currently out there.
- 10 Reasons to Use F#
- F# Community Projects
- Using the F# Interactive
- My Introduction to Data Science with F#
- Less Defects with F# Units of Measure
There will definitely be more in the future so keep an eye out there for more posts on F# and there may even be a few on Xamarin with F#.
Random Link Roundup
/Apparently, every Sunday seems to be a bit too much of a time constraint to get these links out. Instead, I'll just randomly send some I think are worth reading.
- Building Apps in the 4.5.1 Preview in VS 2012 (Microsoft .NET Team) - No need to get VS2013 Preview to build apps in the .NET 4.5.1 framework.
- AngularJS in 60ish Minutes (Dan Wahlin) - Awesome introductory video to the AngularJS framework. The more I learn about this the more I think I need to learn about it.
- Implementing a SignalR Stock Ticker Using AngularJS (Ravi Kiran) - Speaking of AngularJS, here's an awesome tutorial on it being used in action along with SignalR.
- Understanding Cross-Site Request Forgery in .NET (Bill Morefield) - With me still being new to this client side code stuff I still find stuff that everyone knows about yet I've just now heard about. This is one of those things.
Sunday Link Roundup
/What's a Sunday without some links? Here's a couple of stuff I found interesting this past week.
- Being a Better Programmer course (Scott Allen and Iris Classon, PluralSight) - A recent course on different ways you can learn to be a better developer. Includes tons of links, books, and different techniques to manage your time for self-education.
- When Lousy Code Strikes, Google Dispatches Its Elite ‘Gopher Team’ (Klint Finley, Wired) - Interesting article that gives a bit of history on Google's Go language and some insight to one of the teams they have there.
- 7 JavaScript Basics Many Developers Aren't Using (Properly) (David Walsh, TechPro) - A few JavaScript tips that seem like they can be useful. I'm nowhere near decent at JavaScript yet, but I found these tips interesting and I definitely learned some stuff.
- Knockout.js Cheat sheet for Beginners (Sumit Maitra, DevCurry) - I'm still relatively new to Knockout.js myself and this is a concise list of what you need to know for it to help you get started. Wish I had this when I first started with Knockout.js.
- A rich new JavaScript code editor spreading to several Microsoft web sites (Scott Hanselman) - Microsoft is apparently sneaking in some cool features. It seems that you are able to edit code within several sites from them, including SkyDrive. How awesome is that?!
