Hi All !
Here is the weekly summary of Technical / Non-Technical topics that I found very resourceful.
Technical:
- What will be Roles of a Performance Engineer in another year or two. Great write up. – “Trades of a Performance Engineer in 2020!“
- MIT lectures on Advanced Data Structures. Also, the professor Erik Demaine is an amazing guy – “Advanced Data Structures (Fall’17)“. Side note: Worth checking comments on the original post – here
- The process of preparing for Google interview, being rejected, re-prioritizing things and getting selected in Amazon. Author of this article went through this journey. – “Google Lost a chance to hire me… Finally, Amazon hired me !!!“
- Understanding and changing the default for history command in Bash. – “Better bash history.“
Non-Technical:
- Books recommended by over 100 founders and makers in tech. “Rework” is my all time favorite from the list. – ” Founder Books“
- I have written about Spaced repetition and Anki tool for the same. It does wonders and here is a write up on – “Tips for using Anki and Spaced Repetition in 2019“
- A map of the US where city names are replaced by most Wikipedia’ed resident. Try zooming in and out. – “A People Map of the US“
- An extract from the book that I am reading:
“Khaled Hosseini wrote The Kite Runner in the early mornings before working as a full-time doctor. Paul Levesque (page 128) often works out at midnight. If it’s truly important, schedule it. As Paul might ask you, “Is that a dream or a goal?” If it isn’t on the calendar, it isn’t real.”
