10 tips to save you time and frustration while programmingHugo Shi
The document provides 10 tips for programming students to save time and reduce frustration while learning to code. The tips include splitting your screen for documentation and code, learning concepts over multiple days, learning by teaching others, understanding a programming language before using libraries for that language, and becoming proficient with keyboard shortcuts. It also provides a 5-step process for resolving 95% of errors which involves looking for typos, reading error messages, filtering online resources, avoiding older posts, and learning what common error codes mean.
This document outlines a 7-step process for proofreading documents effectively. The steps include: 1) Creating a checklist of important items to check; 2) Doing a fast check to ensure nothing is missed on the checklist; 3) Spell checking for errors; 4) Reading aloud to catch errors not noticed visually; 5) Focusing on one line at a time while proofreading; 6) Checking formatting elements like page numbers and fonts; 7) Proofreading the entire document one last time thoroughly. Following these steps helps catch errors and ensures a polished final document.
This document discusses netiquette, which refers to proper etiquette and polite behavior while online. It provides guidelines for appropriate internet use, such as being clear, using appropriate language, being brief, making a good impression, and considering copyright and privacy of others. The document also lists 10 commandments of computer ethics that promote respectful and lawful behavior, such as not using computers to harm others, interfere with others' work, snoop in files without permission, steal, or bear false witness. Overall, the document encourages internet users to follow best practices that show consideration for fellow users.
The document summarizes research into developing a portable assistive device to help elderly users learn and navigate new technologies more easily. It describes prototyping a wearable device with a camera and projector integrated into glasses that could detect screens and project interactive highlights and instructions to guide users. A preliminary prototype was tested with 6 users on common tasks like web browsing and email which found the prototype helped reduce time and errors compared to unassisted use, though further improvements were identified through evaluations.

Poverty is a growing concern in Pakistan, as nearly one-quarter of Pakistan's population lives below the poverty line. Some key causes of poverty in Pakistan include lack of education and job skills, materialism over community, large imports over exports, and dividing agricultural land among generations. Effects of poverty include increased spread of disease, low birth weights, more stress, and homelessness. Proposed solutions include establishing basic rights like healthcare, education, shelter and food, redistributing land, ending corporate monopolies and tax havens, and industrialized countries reducing carbon emissions and resource consumption.
Technical interviews often do not reflect the actual day-to-day work of a job and require a unique set of skills. The document provides advice on preparing for technical interviews, which may involve coding challenges, algorithms, data structures, frameworks and languages. It recommends practicing core skills, gaining interview experience through mock interviews, and learning from every interview. The goal is to be able to think through problems and code solutions calmly under pressure.

InnerSource - Using open source best practices to help your companyEric Caron
Once a company has more than 1 department developing code, a problem inevitably arises: How do you share source code that's mutually used? There are many different thoughts on the matter, but one that's starting to gain a significant amount of attention is "InnerSource". PayPal defines InnerSource as:
"InnerSource takes the lessons learned from developing open source software and applies them to the way companies develop software internally. As developers have become accustomed to working on world class open source software, there is a strong desire to bring those practices back inside the firewall and apply them to software that companies may be reluctant to release. For companies building mostly closed source software, InnerSource can be a great tool to help break down silos, encourage internal collaboration, accelerate new engineer on-boarding, and identify opportunities to contribute software back to the open source world."
In this talk I cover how to get from where you are ("Hey, we've got some source code that multiple people find useful!"), where you're going ("Look, we're more popular than ReactJS"), and some hurdles along the way ("Oh shoot, it looks like there is already a library to convert FLAC to MP3s..."). I give real-world examples of doing it right, and leave with some takeaways that people can immediately implement at their own companies.
The document provides guidance for interviewing at Peepaal, including:
- Technical skills and qualities they seek include strong learning ability, passion for technology, intelligence, willingness to work hard, and strong technical skills.
- For interviews, expect technical and HR rounds. Dress professionally but casually, like non-denim pants and a collared shirt.
- Coding questions will involve data structures, algorithms, and programming language fundamentals. Approach problems methodically and ask clarifying questions.
- Be prepared to discuss experiences and past projects clearly during non-technical questions. Focus on what you learned rather than lengthy stories.
This document provides an introduction to an Advanced JavaScript course. It covers accessing the browser console, using console.log() to output messages, and demonstrates basic JavaScript code. The key points are:
1. The browser console is used to view output from console.log() and debug JavaScript errors. It is accessed differently in Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Internet Explorer.
2. Basic JavaScript code is shown using console.log() to output messages based on if/else conditions.
3. The console displays the output messages along with the file and line numbers where they were logged. Clicking a line number highlights it in the code.
4. The console has additional tabs like Sources that can be
This document introduces variables in Python. Variables allow values like strings to be assigned to names so they can be referred to and changed later in the code. The document explains that a variable is created by writing a name followed by an equals sign and the value, such as name = 'Mark'. Once a variable is assigned, the name can be used anywhere in the code instead of writing the value out each time. Variables can also be reassigned new values later. The document emphasizes that variable names have no inherent meaning to Python, but meaningful names help humans understand the code.
The document provides guidance for novice software testers on creating a portfolio to demonstrate their skills and experience to potential employers. It recommends including examples of bugs found, complex projects tested, and automation frameworks created. It suggests gaining experience by contributing to open source projects or crowdsourced testing websites, describing the process for finding a suitable project and submitting useful bug reports. The portfolio helps novice testers gain real-world experience to overcome the "beginner paradox" of needing experience to get a job.
This presentation provides guidance for novice testers on creating a portfolio to demonstrate their skills and experience to potential employers. It recommends including examples of bugs found, technologies tested, and test designs. Open source and crowdsourced testing are suggested as ways to gain experience without a testing job by contributing to projects on sites like SourceForge and uTest. Guidelines are provided on selecting projects, reading documentation, testing, reporting bugs, and following up to learn. Testers are encouraged to think about and document their testing processes.

6. Give yourself the best codebase possible.
Ask questions before you start the job.
7. Quite reasonable things
to ask in a interview
What kind of [vcs, workflow] do you use?
How often do you deploy code?
What do you wish was better about your codebase?
What would I do in my first week, month?
13. Talk to a human
So the codebase is Java, C, PHP and Haskell.
Yeah, I don't know either.
14. During a code walkthrough
Get an overview of the code structure and evolution
Populate your vocabulary sheet
Know what patterns are being used + learn them
Know where the ugly and the scary parts are
15. Get the test suite running
Be sure to update the Getting Started Doc
so there are fewer lies in it.
17. Get a bug to fix
Most companies will start you
out on one. Open source: see if
any are tagged or ask on IRC.
DO NOT STRUGGLE. Give
yourself a time limit and then
ask for help.
People expect you to be slow &
confused. Take advantage of
this.
18. Stop and smell the code paths
What are the folders and entry points?
What are the high-level components?
What third party libraries does it use?
Where is the configuration?
19. Make and test assumptions
Do your assumptions hold? If not, why?
Notice when you're confused.
20. Good code is...
You can make assumptions and usually be right
You don't have to understand all of the code to
understand part of the code
Clarity trumps correctness
