Professional PHP developer
Everyone that is around software development for several years have already been at the situation where an “eco” is constantly buzzing at your ears, saying “are we there yet ?”
Just found a great post by Caterina, “Want to be an entrepreneur? Drop out of college.“, and got myself feeling a great joy, finally someone say’s it out and loud.
Some great quotes from Caterina post :
“College works on the factory model, and is in many ways not suited to training entrepreneurs. You put in a student and out comes a scholar.”
“… the basic skills necessary to start a tech company — design or coding — are skills that can be learned outside of the academy, and are often self-taught.”
Go on and read the full content at Caterina blog.
I have a whole shelf of books praying about entrepreneurship, motivational, work less, be in charge of your destiny book, although read none like the truths on this post and written down over at “Linchpin” book.
Does this mean that a whole new mentality is rising ? Would this be the start of a brand and modern society ?
What do you think about this ?
Just found a Kristina Chodorow, Software Developer for 10Gen, talk on introducing MongoDB.
The talk definitely worth’s the 45 minutes.I suggest for you to go to Parleys and see the talk with slides side-by-side.
The talk touchs almost all MongoDb hot topics:
Looked for a reliable document oriented database, and after some tests and code, decided to give a try on MongoDB for a small proof of concept that i am working on. On the rest of this post i will try to guide you through the main principles of MongoDB integration with PHP.
Jens Østergaard gives a great talk about “Why is scrum so hard”. A great talk about the challenges of scrum using some real examples.
