Best Practices

It's hard to recommend best practices in general without context, but basically, writing clean, readable code with lots of comments, and doing a lot of automated unit testing, followed by an automated build process using ANT or Grunt to concatenate and minify files is a start.

Twitter

I don't focus much on blogs any more. I focus more on Twitter. If the people I follow there recommend something, I'll go read it. Here's the best of my Twitter list, including developers, conferences, and interesting groups. There are other great developers on Twitter, but these tweet mostly about development:

# You should set up your system as following:
# 1) Add 'i915.enable_gvt=1 intel_iommu=on iommu=pt' to boot arguments
# 1.1) If you get Windows guest working somehow, then add 'kvm.ignore_msrs=1' to avoid guest BSOD-ing
#       (Windows does weird stuff).
# 2) `MODULES=(kvm kvmgt i915)` in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
# 3) `echo -e "options i915 enable_gvt=1\nsoftdep i915 pre: kvmgt" > /etc/modprobe.d/20-kvmgt.conf` for sure
