Learn Go Series (#7) - Strings, Runes, and Unicode What will I learn What a Go string really is -- an immutable, read-only slice of bytes holding UTF-8; Why len(s) counts bytes, indexing gives you a byte,

Learn Rust Series (#60) - Mini Project: A Fully Tested, Documented, Published-Ready CSV Toolkit Crate What will I learn You will pull together everything from Phase 4 into one small but complete library

Learn JS Series (#35) - The Prototype Chain: How Property Lookup Really Works What will I learn You will learn the full prototype chain, from an object up to Object.prototype and finally null; exactly

Learn Zig Series (#170) - Audio Output via C Interop What will I learn? Why a real audio device is a pull model, not a push model -- the sound card calls you on a strict clock, and what that does to how

Learn Go Series (#6) - Maps and Sets What will I learn How to create, read, write and grow a map, Go's built-in hash table; The comma-ok idiom that tells "present but zero" apart from

Learn JS Series (#34) - The Prototype: JavaScript's Actual Inheritance Mechanism What will I learn You will learn what a prototype is: a hidden link from one object to another; how JavaScript uses that

Learn Zig Series (#169) - Audio Fundamentals: PCM and Buffers What will I learn? What sound actually is to a computer -- PCM samples in a buffer -- and how sample rate, bit depth and channel count turn

Learn Go Series (#5) - Arrays, Slices, and Slice Internals What will I learn The difference between an array (fixed size, a value) and a slice (a growable view), and why you almost always use slices; What

Learn Rust Series (#58) - Build Scripts (build.rs) and Generating Code at Build Time What will I learn You will learn what build.rs is: a Rust program Cargo compiles and runs before building your crate;

Learn JS Series (#33) - Getters and Setters: Computed Properties That Look Like Data What will I learn You will learn what getters and setters are: functions that behave exactly like ordinary properties;

Learn Zig Series (#168) - JPEG Decoder Basics What will I learn? Why a JPEG is a completely different animal from a PNG -- lossy, frequency-domain compression in stead of lossless prediction -- and what

Learn Go Series (#4) - Control Flow: if, switch, and the Only Loop What will I learn The if statement and its handy init clause that scopes a variable to the branch; Go's single loop keyword for in all

Learn Rust Series (#57) - Feature Flags and Conditional Compilation (cfg) What will I learn You will learn how the #[cfg(...)] attribute compiles code in or out based on a condition; how feature flags

My code doesn't work. I don't know why. Five minutes later My code works. I don't know why. The eternal duality of man. #technology #programming #humor #hive #ecency

Python is one of the most popular programming languages right now, and it’s also easy to learn. We can use Python to build websites and apps, and it has become

Learn JS Series (#32) - Property Descriptors: writable, enumerable, configurable What will I learn You will learn that every property carries three hidden flags that control how it behaves; what writable,

Learn Zig Series (#167) - PNG Decoder in Zig What will I learn? The actual byte layout of a PNG file: the 8-byte signature, the chunk framing (length, type, data, CRC), and why that framing is such a pleasant

Learn Go Series (#3) - Functions and First-Class Functions What will I learn How Go functions return multiple values, and why that is the language's answer to exceptions; The comma-ok idiom, the little
