Modern Memcached Client | Wide-Eyed Amazement on 2009-11-20
-
After a year or so of dormancy I’m finally inspired to write a blog post. This is my first post ever, so please excuse the coarseness. Plausibly enough, this one will be about Memcached, specifically how I implemented a client for TV.com, where I currently work.

redis - Project Hosting on Google Code on 2009-11-18
-
It is possible to think at Redis as a data structures server, it is not just another key-value DB, see all the commands supported by Redis to get the first feeling. Redis supports operations like atomic push and pop of elements on lists, taking ranges of elements from this lists at once, trimming of lists, server-side intersections of sets and even sorting data! To show our points we wrote a simple Twitter clone with PHP + Redis: it's a very simple but still a real world example of web application, the article explains step by step how to write scalable applications with Redis.

Acoustic Guitar Recording – The Basics — Echoes - Insight for Independent Artists on 2009-11-18
-
f you’re doing home recording, one of the main instruments you may be using for accompaniment is the acoustic guitar. Learning the basics of acoustic guitar recording requires time to experiment a bit to find your instrument’s sweet spots for micing, and also understanding some essentials with regard to your guitar and recording environment. We’ll use the most popular dynamic mics that many musicians rely on for gigs, the venerable Shure SM-57 and 58, to show how to get a good recorded sound from your acoustic guitar. We’ll also recommend two affordable condenser mics that can help you take your guitar’s sound to the next level.

The Zen of Ear Training – Part 1 — Echoes - Insight for Independent Artists on 2009-11-18
-
An important part of every musician’s evolution is ear training. It’s a strange concept, but becoming an active and educated listener pays off in a huge way. First lets cover a few points about what ear training is and isn’t and then we’ll get to the exercises. Ear training is a broad term used to cover two aural developmental practices – perfect pitch and relative pitch. A common misconception we’ve got to dispel right away, perfect pitch is learnable, but your expectations need to be reasonable. Learned perfect pitch is a very subtle thing. It’s not that you suddenly can call out every note in every tune; rather it gives you a deeper perception of music. The best analogy is to think of describing different shades of color to people. Relative pitch is equally important (and more-so for certain types of playing) and is the art of hearing the relationships between tones even if you don’t know the exact note e.g. minor third, descending diatonic scale, etc. This is also learnable with practice.

A Tutorial for the Go Programming Language on 2009-11-17
-
This document is a tutorial introduction to the basics of the Go programming
language, intended for programmers familiar with C or C++. It is not a comprehensive
guide to the language; at the moment the document closest to that is the
language specification.
After you've read this tutorial, you might want to look at
Effective Go,
which digs deeper into how the language is used.
Also, slides from a 3-day course about Go are available:
Day 1,
Day 2,
Day 3.
The presentation here proceeds through a series of modest programs to illustrate
key features of the language. All the programs work (at time of writing) and are
checked into the repository in the directory/doc/progs/.
Program snippets are annotated with the line number in the original file; for
cleanliness, blank lines remain blank.
