<p>We chat with <a href="http://codeofrob.com/">Rob Ashton</a>, freelance developer, speaker and recent discoverer of how to learn things properly, live on stage during <a href="http://www.oredev.org">Øredev</a> 2014. Topics include learning, the plateaus of learning and how to actually do things right to keep evolving and learning. The problems of frameworks wanting to make X easy. Perhaps we should learn about programming in general instead of learning the next big framework in the hope that it will solve our problems without us needing to understand them?</p> <p>This recording exists as good as it is thanks to <a href="http://steveonjava.com/">Stephen Chin</a> of <a href="http://nighthacking.com/">nighthacking.com</a> for providing and masterfully wrangling all the necessary technology.</p> <p>Comments, thoughts or suggestions? <a href="http://techworld.idg.se/2.2524/1.603280/">Discuss this episode</a> at Techworld!</p> <h2 id="links">Links</h2> <ul> <li><a href="http://codeofrob.com/">Rob Ahston</a></li> <li><a href="http://vimeo.com/110972838">Rob’s keynote from At the frontend</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Haskell">Haskell</a></li> <li><a href="http://clojure.org/">Clojure</a></li> <li><a href="http://oredev.org/2014/sessions/all-about-that-spec">Rob’s good use of the guitar</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strum">Strumming</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Practice_%28learning_method%29#Deliberate_practice">Deliberate learning</a></li> <li><a href="http://oredev.org/2014/sessions/refactoring-to-functional">Refactoring to to functional</a> - talk at Øredev by Hadi Hariri</li> <li><a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.controls.datagrid%28v=vs.110%29.aspx">Datagrid</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Forms">Winforms</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.ats-lang.org/">ATS</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erlang_%28programming_language%29">Erlang</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prolog">Prolog</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recursion">Recursion</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Fold">Fold</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/List_comprehension">Haskell generator functions</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymorphism_%28computer_science%29">Polymorphism</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.erlang.org/doc/man/gen_server.html">gen_server</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MUD">MUD</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colossal_Cave_Adventure">You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latency_%28engineering%29">Latency</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.zuggsoft.com/zmud/help6/Intr0197.htm">Macros in MUDs</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wizard_%28MUD%29">Wizards in MUDs</a></li> <li><a href="https://angularjs.org/">Angular</a></li> <li><a href="http://vimeo.com/110973785">Angular 2.0 talk</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Haskell/Lazy_evaluation">Haskell is lazy</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.asp.net/web-forms">Web forms</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.npmjs.com/">npm</a> - the Node package manager</li> <li><a href="http://facebook.github.io/react/">React</a></li> <li><a href="https://github.com/swannodette/om">Om</a></li> <li><a href="https://github.com/clojure/clojurescript">Clojurescript</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Read%E2%80%93eval%E2%80%93print_loop">REPL</a></li> <li><a href="https://facebook.github.io/flux/">Flux</a> - Facebook’s architechture style used by them with React</li> <li><a href=&

Vi lämnade Stockholm Waterfront med ett par intervjuer, reflektioner och en hel del idéer och uppslag för vad vi vill göra med podcasten framöver.</p> <p>Först ut är vår intervju med <a href="http://www.jonobacon.org/">Jono Bacon</a>. Jono är Community Manager på <a href="http://www.canonical.com/">Canonical</a>, företaget som ligger bakom Linux-distributionen <a href="http://www.ubuntu.com/">Ubuntu</a>. Han var på Internetdagarna för att hålla en keynote med teman Community, så våra frågor började där. Han är dock även programmerare, musiker och en allmänt trevlig snubbe, så vi hinner avverka allt möjligt från hemmakontor till mobilprogrammering.</p> <p>Jono har även sin egen <a href="http://www.badvoltage.org/">podcast</a> som vi rekommenderar till alla som är intresserade av öppen källkod eller bara vill höra mer av Jono. Vi låter det här citatet från vår intervju tjäna som ett smakprov eller varning!</p> <blockquote> <p>“Some people are just assholes.
