Preparing for the real costs of cloud computing
Computerworld - At a cloud computing conference in New York in June, a number of speakers pointed out that the cloud is moving past the hype stage and is beginning to deliver tangible benefits to organizations. These improvements include increased flexibility and agility. But moving to the cloud can also mean added costs, some of which might be unexpected, according to IT executives whose organizations have implemented cloud services or are considering them. While these types of costs ...

Move.Me Writing Your Own WebSocket Server
The WebSocket protocol has applications beyond plain vanilla web development. I will explain how the protocol works, how to implement your own server and share some insights I had along the way. Before we get down and dirty, I will explain what I’ve been doing with it. At this point I expect many of you are saying “I’m not working on a web game this doesn’t seem relevant to me.†Well, neither am I. I embed a WebSocket server into my game engine and wit...

What the Heck are Algebraic Data Types? ( for Programmers )
This post is meant to be a gentle introduction to Algebraic Data Types. Some of you may be asking why you should learn Algebraic Data Types and how will they change your world? I am not going to answer that, but suffice it to say that Algebraic Data Types are the underpinning of the type systems to the ML derived languages, Haskell and OCaml included, and their construction and properties allow for the power (and inference) that accompanies these type systems. They are cropping...

“Build something people want†is not enough
Most people take “Build something people want†to mean “Pick a problem to solve and solve it well.†This is not sufficient to build a world changing company.“Why now?†is the question entrepreneurs really need to answer. “Why now†encompasses two important and closely related concepts:Why have previous attempts at this idea failed?What enabling factors have emerged that enable you to succeed today?The world is full of smart people who have the same...

Functional Programming Is Hard, That's Why It's Good
Odds are, you don’t use a functional programming language every day. You probably aren’t getting paid to write code in Scala, Haskell, Erlang, F#, or a Lisp Dialect. The vast majority of people in the industry use OO languages like Python, Ruby, Java or C#–and they’re happy with them. Sure, they might occasionally use a “functional feature†like “blocks†now and then, but they aren’t writing functional code.And yet, for years we’v...

Why developer-friendliness is central to API design
Today, APIs play a bigger role in software development than ever before. The evolution of computing has been dominated by ever-increasing levels of abstraction; the use of higher-level languages, of course, but also the development of platforms, libraries, and frameworks. Professor Douglass C. Smith claims the progression of this second category far outpaced the development of programming languages. Developers are also noticing that difficulty has shifted from designing algorithms a...

10 Web Design Elements that You Shouldn’t Overlook
When it comes to designing and building websites, it never seems to happen fast enough.Given this fast pace, many small details that are eventually required to build the website are often left out of the design process. While these details might be minor, they are what take a website from nice to truly awesome.These details are often easy to miss because they don’t drive the overall look and feel of the website. The problem is that as your development team works through the design, it wil...
