Frequently when people discuss what is a “good” Go library, they usually use terms like “idiomatic” or “the Go way”. These terms are imprecise and make it difficult to discuss the merits of different API designs. I recently re-read Don Norman’s The Design of Everyday Things and realized that the same principles of design discussed in the book can be used to evaluate the design of APIs.
So you want to be a poster designer…

Nice! Each of the posters is spot-on, I’d say.
It’s the rage on the internet and just one in a long line of buzzwords from the internet: HTML5. Many of my technically inclined followers know of HTML5. Even my followers who have been on the Internet in the past few months may have heard of it. The promises it makes are wild and varied: spectacular video, ground-breaking graphics, awesome apps, and astounding audio. But what does HTML5 mean, and why is it good? And more importantly, how is Zombie Zen using it?
Hey everyone:
Because I am doggedly determined to run a great site, I’ve done a complete redesign of the visual theme for Zombie Zen. However, this process is not the smoothest, so please be aware that there may be some display issues. Bear with me for the next couple of days.
Hope you like it painted black! :)
