I'd highly recommend Dr. David West's "Object Thinking" book. It does an excellent job of (1) describing how most programmers who use an OO language fall into writing "small Cobol" programs and (2) how to avoid

Do you actually know programmers who literally just take specs and implement them and have no thoughts or opinions about the larger context of what's going on? Sadly, yes. I've found this to be the case with most outsourced deve

Forth is a stack-based point-free[1] programming language where Scheme is a functional programming language. Both Forth and Lisp/Scheme offer functional composition. Forth is similar to Smalltalk in that they're both a live progra
