Programming Interests (Past)
Autodidactic Journey
As a self-taught engineer, my journey of learning to code and build software was driven by curiosity and a commitment to mastering the craft independently. Several topics stood out as particularly compelling during this time. While I won’t dive into them in depth here, I’m happy to discuss any of them in detail through a consultation. Here are my favorite past programming interests:
- Functional Programming (Hindley-Milner & Lisps)
- Emacs
- Desktop Ubuntu
- TypeScript
- Website and application development
- Cloud servers and deployment techniques
Good books
Here are three programming books that I learned a lot by reading and following along with a repl or compiler:
- The C Book by Mike Banahan, Declan Brady, and Mark Doran
- Secrets of the JavaScript Ninja by John Resig, Bear Bibeault, and Josip Maras
- Clojure for the Brave and True by Daniel Higginbotham
