Clean Code - Meaningful Names (Summary)
In the world of software development, code is read far more often than it is written. The most powerful tool we have for communicating intent — and the foundation of all clean code — is the name. A poor name creates a maintenance liability, forcing every future developer (including your future self) to reconstruct meaning from context. A well-chosen name, on the other hand, transforms code into self-documenting prose.
Thinking Fast and Slow - Part1 (Two Systems)
আমরা কি কখনও ভেবে দেখেছি — কেন কিছু সিদ্ধান্ত আমরা এক মুহূর্তে নিয়ে ফেলি, আর কোনো কোনো সিদ্ধান্তে ঘণ্টার পর ঘণ্টা বা দিনের পর দিন লেগে যায়? যেমন, হয়তো কারও মুখ দেখেই তুমি সঙ্গে সঙ্গে বুঝে ফেলো সে রেগে আছে — একদম কোনও চিন্তা ছাড়াই। কিন্তু অফিসে বাজেট তৈরি বা বিনিয়োগের মতো গুরুত্বপূর্ণ সিদ্ধান্তে পৌঁছাতে কেন আমাদের মাথা গরম হয়ে যায়, প্রচুর মনোযোগ দিতে হয়?
Clean Code - Error Handling (Summary)
Error handling is one of the most overlooked aspects of programming. When everything works, it’s invisible. When something fails, it can either save you or sink you.
