Russian Software Craftsmanship community

imageHello!, I'd like to tell you about a new community of Russian Software Craftsmanship Community. Just want to say, if you are a supporter of approach Programming, them motherfuckers, this post will obviously cause you neodobrenie and maybe even a wave of hatred. If you're wondering what Software Craftsmanship, how to write useful code and be an engineer within agile methodologies or do you have long tormented you.

Software Craftsmanship is the response of developers to the emergence of Agile methodologies for it support engineers. There are Software Craftsmanship Manifesto which States:

the
    the
  • Not only working software, but also well-crafted software
    • the
  • Not only responding to change but also steadily adding value
    • the
  • Not only individuals and interactions, but also a community of professionals
    • the
  • Not only customer collaboration, but also productive partnerships


Accordingly, our community — those who like this approach and want to develop it by sharing your experience. On our the website we publish articles and organize meetings.

An example of our meeting is Code&Coffee. Code &Coffee is an informal morning meeting, at which we drink coffee, write code and communicate while we will not delay the work. There are no hard and fast rules and requirements — just a desire to learn or share experiences. So far we have held two meetings — one to explore the Facebook API, the second is to deal with the testing of multithreaded applications. All the information about these meetings, we published in Facebook group.

imageAnother type is XP Battle. XP Battle is a free event that is dedicated to the testing of a particular engineering practice or examples of practical use of the tool. Our audience is those who are called Software Engineer. Why do we need this? We want the Russian-speaking engineering community grew and developed. To well known engineering practices (TDD, AFT and other scary words) started to use more and more number of people, and new practices became available to a wider audience for study and use in the work.
The event format is very simple: we invite up to 30 participants and up to 15 fans. All participants work in pairs — tester + developer. The event takes place for 4 hours, during which all participants must complete quests, get achievements and work of the chosen practices, for example TDD. The work is short iterations: introductory — training — debrief.

So we started page on Facebook, where you post news, tidbits, and other useful things. If you are interested in all this, then welcome!

Then put 3000 icons , a week before the release on the official website, because the owners of the cows (Bluehost) busy buying crocodile ( HostGator ). / > To understand which icons are the most unique in the world, had to sort 7422 icons. The result did not disappoint... and it turned out that the percentage of unique icons 85,53% cows , 55,90% James and 68,59% from Yusuke. 17.15% — so % unique icons more Fatcow than Fugue . Our designer worked 3.5 hours a day, 5 days per week, for 4 consecutive years. As at the manufactory. Using specially crafted for our set generator Corvo from Berezin Artyom, woven two carpet, put through photoshop and get lep...

More than a year ago, Google announced that from now on in their search is the mysterious Knowledge Network (an official translation of the Knowledge Graph). Perhaps not everyone knows that a significant part of the data Network available for anyone to use and available via well described APIs. This part is the knowledge base Freebase, supported by Google and enthusiasts. In this article, we first a little nuts, and then try to do a few simple queries in MQL. This article is the second of the knowledge Base. Stay tuned. the the Part 1 — Introduction the Part 2 — Freebase: we make requests to the Google Knowledge Graph the Part 3 — Dbpedia — a kernel of the world of Linked Data the Part 4 — Wikidata — semantic Wikipedia Google Knowledge Graph from the point of view of an ordinary user One of the visible manifestations of the Google Knowledge Graph is the information panel that briefly describes the object that you are looking for. They often arise from the se...

Group edit the resources (documents) using MIGXDB

I wonder the opportunities offered by component MIGX from Bruno17 for MODX Revolution . While he looks clumsy and there are mistakes, but the critical problem. All that is written in this article important for MIGX version 2.5.8-pl (the latter at the moment). / > Many people use MIGX for creating photo galleries , but its functionality is not limited. A real designer to manage data of any database tables. You can even display a list of child resources (documents of MODX) in any container. This will be discussed in this article. Something I learned from documentation MIGDB but, as I understand, it is already rather outdated and much of what is described there simply doesn't work. I will tell you how to make a table with nested resources: 1. Open "Components" -> "MIGX". Go to the tab "MIGX". Click "Add item". 2. On the "Settings" tab to enter a name (Name) of the configuration, for example "ch...
