Project Euler
What is Project Euler? Project Euler is a series of challenging mathematical/computer programming problems that will require more than just mathematical insights to solve. Although mathematics will help you arrive at elegant and efficient methods, the use of a computer and programming skills will be required to solve most problems. The motivation for starting Project Euler, and its continuation, is to provide a platform for the inquiring mind to delve into unfamiliar areas and learn new concepts in a fun and recreational context. Who are the problems aimed at? The intended audience include students for whom the basic curriculum is not feeding their hunger to learn, adults whose background was not primarily mathematics but had an interest in things mathematical, and professionals who want to keep their problem solving and mathematics on the edge. Can anyone solve the problems? The problems range in difficulty and for many the experience is inductive chain learning. What next?
The Little Book of Semaphores
Allen B. Downey Download the book in PDF now! The video Watch an introduction to semaphores (and Free Books) I presented at Northeastern University: The book The Little Book of Semaphores is a free (in both senses of the word) textbook that introduces the principles of synchronization for concurrent programming. In most computer science curricula, synchronization is a module in an Operating Systems class. The approach of this book is to identify patterns that are useful for a variety of synchronization problems and then show how they can be assembled into solutions. The book covers the classical problems, including "Readers-writers," "Producer-consumer", and "Dining Philosophers." Second edition! The second edition of the book is now available in Postscript and PDF. In addition, the LaTeX source code is available in a tar file.

Who Owns Your PC? New Anti-Piracy Windows 7 Update "Phones Home" to Microsoft Every 90 Days
Greetings. Sometimes a seemingly small software update can usher in a whole new world. When Microsoft shortly pushes out a Windows 7 update with the reportedly innocuous title "Update for Microsoft Windows (KB971033)" -- it will be taking your Windows 7 system where it has never been before. And it may not be a place where you want to go. Imagine that you're sitting quietly in your living-room at your PC, perhaps watching YouTube. Even though you insist that you bought your laptop from the retail computer store down the street many months ago, and didn't install any pirate software, the visitors declare that your computer "isn't genuine" according to their latest pirated systems lists, and they say that "while we'll let you keep using it, we're modified your system so that it will constantly nag in your face until you pay up for a legit system!" You then notice that the wallpaper on your PC has turned black, and these strange notifications keep popping up urging you to "come clean."

30 Pixel perfect websites | Awwwards
We know how easy it is to buy a template change some colors, put an icon here and there, add a logo, some pictures and voilà, you've got yourself a website. But we also know good design takes time. Making a design that's not only good but great can be a tedious work, but you can tell when something has been made for an specific purpose. That's what happens when you strive for pixel perfection, it shows.
Best Programming Quotations
A good programmer is someone who looks both ways before crossing a one-way street. -- Doug Linder, systems administrator A most important, but also most elusive, aspect of any tool is its influence on the habits of those who train themselves in its use. If the tool is a programming language this influence is, whether we like it or not, an influence on our thinking habits. -- Edsger Dijkstra, computer scientist Being abstract is something profoundly different from being vague... Besides a mathematical inclination, an exceptionally good mastery of one's native tongue is the most vital asset of a competent programmer. -- Edsger Dijkstra C makes it easy to shoot yourself in the foot; C++ makes it harder, but when you do, it blows away your whole leg. -- Bjarne Stroustrup, developer of the C++ programming language Commentary: most debugging problems are fixed easily; identifying the location of the problem is hard. -- unknown Good code is its own best documentation.
