Why you should consider compilation as a test in itself.

laurentparenteau.com:193 2013-05-13T20:11:05Z 2013-05-13T20:15:56Z

I have read Version Control by Example from Eric Sink a couple of months ago, but let's talk about DataBallet first.

laurentparenteau.com:192 2012-11-23T00:00:00Z 2012-11-23T00:00:00Z

One of the good thing about book, is that there is so much good book available, that there is always more good books left to read the number of books you have already been though.

laurentparenteau.com:191 2012-11-15T00:00:00Z 2012-11-15T00:00:00Z

I recently read Kanban and Scrum: making the most of both.

laurentparenteau.com:190 2012-10-24T00:00:00Z 2012-10-24T00:00:00Z

It took me more than than I expected, but laurentparenteau.

laurentparenteau.com:189 2012-06-22T00:00:00Z 2012-06-22T00:00:00Z

Yes, that is right, DataBallet is alive! That web site is not yet running the latest version (available from GitHub), but it will shortly.

laurentparenteau.com:188 2012-05-28T00:00:00Z 2012-05-28T00:00:00Z

I have been thinking about this for many years now, probably because I have an interest for web server and related technologies.

laurentparenteau.com:187 2012-04-24T00:00:00Z 2012-04-24T00:00:00Z

A lot of new products or tools are made available to all software developers every months.

laurentparenteau.com:186 2012-04-06T00:00:00Z 2012-04-06T00:00:00Z

There is always many ways to fix a problem.

laurentparenteau.com:185 2012-03-23T00:00:00Z 2012-03-23T00:00:00Z

People who had to look for a new job recently probably know this : showing something you have done is a great way to increase your chances of being hired.

laurentparenteau.com:184 2012-03-11T00:00:00Z 2012-03-11T00:00:00Z

We all have been told (and/or learned it the hard way) that backups are important.

laurentparenteau.com:183 2011-11-01T00:00:00Z 2013-05-10T21:07:20Z

The reason for the recent inactivity here is...

laurentparenteau.com:180 2011-09-01T00:00:00Z 2013-05-10T21:18:03Z

While the development of new network protocols is not a mainstream activity, it is still pretty fun.

laurentparenteau.com:179 2011-08-01T00:00:00Z 2013-05-10T21:21:42Z

It looks like more and more agile proponents have seen the light and stopped demonizing Waterfall.

Thanks to Kent Beck for sharing Harold's Corollary To Knuth's Law.

laurentparenteau.com:177 2011-08-01T00:00:00Z 2013-05-11T15:44:40Z

I thought this site could be really interesting to share with (your) co-workers that are new to Linux and want to learn more : Hands On Linux.That site offers 28 projects to get your hands dirty with Linux.

laurentparenteau.com:176 2011-08-01T00:00:00Z 2011-08-01T00:00:00Z

Iterating is about getting feedback, fast.

laurentparenteau.com:175 2011-08-01T00:00:00Z 2013-05-11T15:45:40Z

Are you afraid of NoSQL databases? Are you lost among all the various concepts and tools that are grouped together under that label? Do not worry, you are not alone.

laurentparenteau.com:174 2011-07-01T00:00:00Z 2013-05-11T15:46:14Z

That is what happens when you stop writing (for a reason or another) for too long...

laurentparenteau.com:173 2011-06-01T00:00:00Z 2013-05-11T15:46:45Z

While it is easier to build packages for a Linux distribution using that distribution, that solution is not always available or usable.

laurentparenteau.com:172 2011-06-01T00:00:00Z 2013-05-11T15:47:26Z

Last week I mentioned how to re-build DEB sources using Gentoo / Sabayon.

laurentparenteau.com:171 2011-05-01T00:00:00Z 2013-05-11T15:47:55Z

Developing software without making any assumption about the environment or interactions that your piece of code is (will be) interacting with is impossible.

laurentparenteau.com:170 2011-05-01T00:00:00Z 2013-05-11T15:48:18Z

Learning a new programming language may not always be easy.

laurentparenteau.com:169 2011-04-01T00:00:00Z 2011-04-01T00:00:00Z

I know it's been a while, but I've been pretty busy these days with the birth of our second child.

Even if you do not want to go with full disk encryption, having your swap partition encrypted is a good security practice by itself.

laurentparenteau.com:167 2011-04-01T00:00:00Z 2013-05-11T15:49:12Z

To stay on the security topic (had to look at that a lot recently), here's how to install and use BlueProximity on Kubuntu 10.10.But first of all, what is BlueProximity and what does it do? From BlueProximity's website :

laurentparenteau.com:166 2011-03-01T00:00:00Z 2013-05-11T15:49:47Z

What are you looking at when learning a new programming language? The syntax? How to translate from your current preferred programming language to the new one? This is not the best way to go.

laurentparenteau.com:165 2011-03-01T00:00:00Z 2013-05-13T21:30:20Z

Here's another classic.

laurentparenteau.com:164 2011-02-01T00:00:00Z 2013-05-11T15:50:58Z

What do you do when a software bug gets you in hot water? Point the blame on someone else? That is not a good idea.

laurentparenteau.com:163 2011-02-01T00:00:00Z 2013-05-11T15:51:37Z

The software world is always changing.

laurentparenteau.com:162 2011-02-01T00:00:00Z 2013-05-11T15:52:03Z

Today I share with you an interesting tool I discovered recently : CDEpack.

laurentparenteau.com:161 2011-01-01T00:00:00Z 2013-05-13T21:31:13Z

For those who have never heard of it, it contains fifteen essays (four more in the 20th anniversary edition) about software project management.

I'm not advocating big design up front (BDUF).
