A flight last Sunday meant I was so sleepy I skipped sending last week’s newsletter… so this week is super-sized. A lot of content about distributed teams I think.
This week is somewhat more eclectic than usual. There is nothing about any particular programming language. There is a bit on Kubernetes, functional programming and containers, project management, aviation history, interviews/bios… I have started reading a few more papers, and I’ll share the interesting ones as well. This week they are centered in data engineering.
Yeah, I skipped last week. On Saturday Python Barcelona organised PyDay 2019, and I was one of the organisers aside from giving a workshop on PySpark, so I felt pretty tired on Sunday. Of course this means this is a double issue.
This week there is a lot of functional programming (mostly Scala, a bit of Haskell) and data engineering topics. Of course, there is also the usual random stuff I find interesting as well (and other engineering topics).
A mixed bag of interesting history tidbits sprinkled with Haskell code, Scala stuff, data engineering systems and practices, and how to code with your voice.
This feels like a heavy engineering edition. A lot of Haskell, Rust, Python and Scala. There’s still a bit of everything, but this will appeal hardcore developers more than usual.
