The purpose of this page is to keep track of the interesting things that I had read. These things will be mostly blog posts, but the list might include books, academic papers, and other forms of content at some point.

I copied the idea from here.

Management

• “Maker’s Schedule, Manager’s Schedule”, by Paul Graham: A 15-years old article that still rings as true today. If you’re a manager and can’t understand why your developers hate meetings, impromptu calls and other distractions, make yourself—and themselves—a favor and read this.

Programming

• “The Grug Brained Developer”: a humorous guide about software development learnings, collected over the author’s career. In a way, it’s a warning against unnecessary complexity.

Writing

• “A blogging style guide”, by Robert Heaton: it’s exactly what it sounds like, a collection of tips to improve one’s writing as a blog author.
• “A blogging style guide vol. 2”, by Robert Heaton: a sequel to the above.
