A map of the Tricki | Tricki
december 2011 by joecamel
Although it didn't catch up there are some interesting (advanced) materials. "This is an attempt to give a quick guide to the top few levels of the Tricki. It may cease to be feasible when the Tricki gets bigger, but we might perhaps be able to automate additions to it. Clicking on arrows just to the right of the name of an article reveals its subarticles. If you want to hide the subarticles again, then you should click to the right of them rather than clicking on the name of one of the subarticles themselves, since otherwise you will follow a link to that subarticle."

Secrets shared « Keri Smith
december 2010 by joecamel
"I presented this list to my illustration class today. It was targeted to illustration but I realized it has wider applications. Simple truths I have learned over the years, many I’m sure you have heard before. I am hoping to give them some mental tools to work with as well as tools of the trade. Part of being successful is having a belief in yourself and the process. Plus, sometimes it just feels good to read a list and feel like you can do it (especially number 6). I told them number 6 is the source for all of my best ideas (wreck this journal, guerilla art kit, explorer, all were done when I was supposed to be working on other things). True story."

How to Read Mathematics
october 2010 by joecamel
"A reading protocol is a set of strategies that a reader must use in order to benefit fully from reading the text. Poetry calls for a different set of strategies than fiction, and fiction a different set than non-fiction. It would be ridiculous to read fiction and ask oneself what is the author's source for the assertion that the hero is blond and tanned; it would be wrong to read non-fiction and not ask such a question. This reading protocol extends to a viewing or listening protocol in art and music. Indeed, much of the introductory course material in literature, music and art is spent teaching these protocols."

"Here’s the original list. It’s a rather personal list of foundational papers and papers with deep ideas. I wrote it “off the cuff” and threw it into a tumblr blog the other day and I got responses from people who suggested others. I’ll add those in a later blog." ... "What would you add to the list?"

Answer in thread "What is your most productive shortcut with Vim?" - Stack Overflow
march 2010 by joecamel
"The sobering thought is that I've only scratched to surface of vi's power and none of what I've described here is even part of the "improvements" for which Vim is named! All of what I've described here should work on any old copy of vi from 20 or 30 years ago." Jim Dennis

Writing good documentation (Jacob K. Moss)
november 2009 by joecamel
"If any part of Django endures, I hope it’ll be a sort of “documentation culture” — an ethos that values great, well-written documentation. To that end, over the coming days I’ll be writing a series of articles laying out the tools, tips, and techniques I’ve learned over the years I’ve spent helping to write Django’s docs."

How to be a Programmer: A Short, Comprehensive, and Personal Summary
october 2009 by joecamel
"To be a good programmer is difficult and noble. The hardest part of making real a collective vision of a software project is dealing with one's coworkers and customers. Writing computer programs is important and takes great intelligence and skill. But it is really child's play compared to everything else that a good programmer must do to make a software system that succeeds for both the customer and myriad colleagues for whom she is partially responsible. In this essay I attempt to summarize as concisely as possible those things that I wish someone had explained to me when I was twenty-one." Robert L. Read

Ten Lessons I Wish I Had Been Taught.

"Gian-Carlo Rota was one the world experts on combinatorics, and helped move the field from a corner of mathematics to become one of its central areas. Rota is famous for many other things, but his book Indiscrete Thoughts is a classic—it is a great read. Even more famous, is his list of Ten Lessons I Wish I Had Been Taught." - Lipton / He mentions Erdos, Hilbert, Feynman and ours Feller.

How To Do Research In the MIT AI Lab

This document presumptuously purports to explain how to do research. We give heuristics that may be useful in picking up the specific skills needed for research (reading, writing, programming) and for understanding and enjoying the process itself (methodology, topic and advisor selection, and emotional factors).
