Links for May 20

May 20, 2011 / Rafe / 0 Comments
  • Jeff Shell argues against needlessly baroque testing frameworks like RSpec and Cucumber. I’ve always hated them.
  • Rebecca Murphey explains how to get better at JavaScript. This is related to my 2011 Skill of the Year. I’ve made little progress toward that goal.
  • Mark Nottingham explains how to perform HTTP load testing properly.
  • Tyler Cowen explains the economics of BitCoin. This is actually a post from last month, but I’m seeing lots of BitCoin discussion, so I thought I’d remind people of it.
  • InFocus has a gallery of photos of nuclear bomb tests. Number 14 blows my mind every time I look at it.
  • This story about Al Capone’s dairy farm is a must-read.
