Loading... The Pragmatic Programmer: From Journeyman to Master (2000)by Andrew Hunt
   Top Five Books of 2014 (903) No current Talk conversations about this book. The Pragmatic Programmer is still quote current despite the fact that it was published in 1999. The book contains all sorts of useful advice for programmers. Most people, especially those with a *nix background, have probably heard a lot of what they have to say. However, this book emphasizes a lot of good software engineering techniques, describes why the techniques are important, and manages to do this in a readable package.  eri_kars | Jul 10, 2022 |  A very good generalist book full of ideas meant to make your work more robust, easier, and cleaner. Very pragmatic, indeed. If anyone needs the summary (either to find out new information or, if you've read it already, review the ideas), just let me know. (  ) luciarux | Jul 3, 2022 | I am still reading the book. It is a nice book. Till now I can just sum it up in one phrase - Awesome non-technical book addressed to technical people. (  ) palakmathur | Feb 11, 2022 | As an experienced dev I agreed with most of the book (or rather the first third, at which point I stopped reading). However, it felt like there was very little actionable information for me and I'm not sure younger me would have known how to apply the recommendations. (  ) damnnicks | Jul 31, 2021 | Here's a book for coders without much code, and still valid after nearly 20 years and several generations of software. It's a catalog of productivity practices, not only in coding but also in setting agendas, learning new methods, writing use cases and requirements, making estimates, fixing rather than doing workarounds, automating, documenting and other common project elements. Maybe it's not just for coders after all. rynk | Jul 11, 2021 | no reviews | add a review
