Weekly Bullet #19 – Summary for the week

Hi All !

Here are a bunch of Technical / Non-Technical topics that I came across recently and found them very resourceful.

Technical:

  • Most popular and highly recommended technical books. The books are segregated in to variety of topics. – link
  • htop explained in depth – link
  • A person who got 7 offers from companies including Google, sharing his experience on how he did it. – link
  • Roadmaps for becoming a Frontend dev, Backend dev or a DevOps expert. – link
  • Interesting visualization of Bubble-sort with Hungarian folk dance. – link
  • How Shopify successfully merges the work of 1000+ developers everyday. – link. Also, there is a discussion with the author of the post here

Non-Technical:

  • For the ones who don’t have time for books, here is a way to get a Page per day of classic books delivered to your inbox. – link
  • Although Feynman’s approach for learning is mentioned here so many times, here is another writing on “The Secret algorithm behind learning” – link
  • A tediously accurate model of the solar system which is a unique educational experience that depicts the scale of the universe. – link
  • How to write better emails (double recommended) – link
  • A short quote from a book :

“I’m always suspicious of the ones who say everything’s going well. If you think that things are going well, then it’s usually some kind of arrogance. If it’s too easy for you, you just relax. You don’t make a real effort, and therefore you never find out what it is to be fully human.”
