Women are minorities among programmers. It seems programming languages are created for males, either. They are full of maths and weird jargon. Are there programming languages which are female friendly? What kind of programming languages can be considered as female friendly?

Women are 87.3% more likely to prefer languages like Ruby and Perl, because they remind us of shiny objects. All women love shiny objects.Smalltalk is another favorite language. Women love to gossip.Languages like C++ and C# are scar...

Writing documentation is one of those things that is dreaded by many developers. It takes a lot of effort and time to get right. And too often, people take shortcuts. This is sad, because well designed documentation is the key to getting people excited about your project, whether it's open source or a developer focused product.In fact, I argue that the most important piece of UX for a developer product isn't the homepage or the sign up process or the SDK download. It's the API documentation! Who cares if your product is the most powerful thing in the world if no one understands how to use it.I...

This post is about an experience of mine on fixing a HTTP 406 Not Acceptable error seen on one of my page.Just got back from a business trip and opened my computer as usual to start to monitor my website statistics.

And in the network tab, see similar result.This confuse...

In my code journeys and programming adventures I’ve encountered many strange foes, and even stranger allies. I’ve identified at least five different kinds of code warriors, some make for wonderful comrades in arms, while others seem to foil my every plan.However they all have their place in the pantheon of software development. Without a healthy mix of these different programming styles you’ll probably find your projects either take too long to complete, are not stable enough or are too perfect for humans to look upon. The duct tape programmerThe code may not be pretty...

Different programming are similar in helping people build staff work as people want them to. But they all have their own features which differentiate them from other programming languages. The language type may be different, for example Java is OOP, some may have different syntax. A programming motto usually can best describe the characteristic of the programming language. For example, "Write once Run everywhere" for Java.But today we are going to take a look at "unofficial mottos" about some programming languages which can describe programming languages from other perspective.C -- C combines ...

People working with computers are a group of people who spend much time on communicating with PCs, Handsets and other programmed hardware devices.
