NumPy — Numpy Jupyter and the future of IPython — IPython Home — TensorFlow Hundreds of (public domain) hexagon tiles and objects! : gamedev Programmer automates his job There's a hilarious project that's popular on GitHub, the website that hosts all kinds of software that programmers want to share with each other. The project was shared by a programmer named Nihad Abbasov, known as "Narkoz" on GitHub. It consists of a bunch of software scripts with some funny but NSFW names. Narkoz says that the scripts came from a another programmer. He tells the story like this: there was a programmer who left for another company, the type of guy that "if something — anything — requires more than 90 seconds of his time, he writes a script to automate that." After the guy left for a new job, his former coworkers were looking through his work and discovered that the guy had automated all sorts of crazy things, including parts of his job, his relationships, and making coffee. The guy wrote one script that sends a text message "late at work" to his wife and "automatically picks reasons" from a preset list of them, describes Narkoz. And the best one?
The 2015 Opensource.com Reading List A decade of good books It's 2004. Google files its IPO. A group of undergrads launch something called "The Facebook" at Harvard University. Opensource.com doesn't exist. Tech-savvy readers hungry for open source stories subscribe to another publication: Red Hat Magazine. And something else appears online: the first recorded instance of the open source summer reading list. A decade-old reading list runs the risk of seeming quaint, even naive. If the open source summer reading list is even older than Opensource.com itself, then the values that inform it are older still. Give and Take by Adam Grant (recommended by Jeff Mackanic) Do nice guys finish last? Give and Take provides the answer to this age-old question. In this extremely engaging book, Adam Grant (the youngest tenured professor and the single highest rated teacher at The Wharton School) divides the world into "takers," "matchers," and "givers" in order to determine which style is the most successful.
