TDD

Tests and the Red | Green | Blue cycle put pressure on your design all the time as you code. Your design decisions are guided by that pressure.

As Corey Haines once stated: "It's like having a little buddy as you code, helping you along, pointing things out such as when your design sucks, when you've broken something, etc."

• forces you to only create enough code to make a test pass (you’re keeping lean all the time)
• you won’t be able to write the next test if you have code that’s too coupled
• you’ll know immediately when you’ve broken behavior. This is different than test after.

Internet Scale Services Checklist

A checklist for designing and developing internet scale services, inspired by James Hamilton's 2007 paper "On Desgining and Deploying Internet-Scale Services."

• http://mvdirona.com/jrh/talksandpapers/jamesrh_lisa.pdf

Basic tenets

• Does the design expect failures to happen regularly and handle them gracefully?
• Have we kept things as simple as possible?

Learning Object Oriented Python

I wrote this as a guide for a financial analyst friend of mine looking to learn Python. He is already fairly well versed in doing Project Euler problems in Ruby. All italicized text is for the benefit of any other readers, such as yourself.

Each section is divided into a short resource (10 minutes or less), a long resource (days to weeks or more), and a challenge.

So what you're looking to do is to be able to recreate financial models in code. And other types of models. This is a noble pursuit.
