I am 3,000 hours into the DIY phase myself, so I appreciate your list.
I think Effective Objective-C and Effective JavaScript (as well as the "Good Parts" and "Secrets of a JS Ninja") were good books.
Also, the C book, since it is difficult to understand Objective-C without a firm grip on C. Although, there are certainly more recent and easier books on C to read.
- aet 13y ago3000 hours? how many years?
- iamryandrake 13y agoI'd like to know that too! Probably anywhere between 1-3 years?
- sAuronas 13y agoThat was one year and 3 months... I don't do much else!
- iamryandrake 13y agoThat's incredible! Great job mate.
- iamryandrake 13y agoThank you! Which book is "THE C Book" you refer to? And how have you enjoyed your DIY journey so far?
- sAuronas 13y agoI'm sure it would be easier if I had a mentor or at least a friend...but I'm a loner so I'm taking my lumps the "hard way". It's been cool I love learning this even at my advanced age.
- ctdavies 13y agoomg K&R is sublimely written. You do not need more recent nor easier books on C.
