DDD/CQRS/ES/Architecture videos

If you have two days to learn the very basics of modelling, Domain-Driven Design, CQRS and Event Sourcing, here's what you should do:

In the evenings read the [Domain-Driven Design Quickly Minibook]{http://www.infoq.com/minibooks/domain-driven-design-quickly}. During the day watch following great videos (in this order):

  1. Eric Evans' [What I've learned about DDD since the book]{http://www.infoq.com/presentations/ddd-eric-evans}
  2. Eric Evans' [Strategic Design - Responsibility Traps]{http://www.infoq.com/presentations/design-strategic-eric-evans}
  3. Udi Dahan's [Avoid a Failed SOA: Business & Autonomous Components to the Rescue]{http://www.infoq.com/presentations/SOA-Business-Autonomous-Components}
  4. Udi Dahan's [Command-Query Responsibility Segregation]{http://www.infoq.com/presentations/Command-Query-Responsibility-Segregation}

You're Missing the Point of Promises

This article has been given a more permanent home on my blog. Also, since it was first written, the development of the Promises/A+ specification has made the original emphasis on Promises/A seem somewhat outdated.

You're Missing the Point of Promises

Promises are a software abstraction that makes working with asynchronous operations much more pleasant. In the most basic definition, your code will move from continuation-passing style:

getTweetsFor("domenic", function (err, results) {
 // the rest of your code goes here.

Adventures in Python Core Dumping

Adventures in Python Core Dumping

After watching Bryan Cantrill's presentation on [Running Aground: Debugging Docker in Production][aground] I got all excited (and strangely nostalgic) about the possibility of core-dumping server-side Python apps whenever they go awry. This would theoretically allow me to fully inspect the state of the program at the point it exploded, rather than relying solely on the information of a stack trace.

Force RGB mode in Mac OS X to fix the picture quality of an external monitor.

Force RGB mode in Mac OS X to fix the picture quality of an external monitor (Original)

Update: I have heard that 10.8.3 has solved this problem for some people, so I rolled back my changes and installed the update. No change on my monitor. Nevertheless, it’d be a good idea to update OS X before trying this, since it may fix the issues with your particular hardware.

I recently bought a MacBook Pro (with ‘Retina’ screen), but when I hooked it up to my Dell U2410 monitor via HDMI cable I was shocked by the poor picture quality. The contrast was all wrong and text was misshapen. No amount of calibration in the monitor or software would fix it.

Short answer: OS X thinks my monitor is a TV, and is using the YCbCr colour space rather than RGB. I had to override an EDID setting to force the RGB colour space, and it is now working correctly.

Long answer: I haven’t owned a Mac for a while and h
