I've bought it, and bought a licence for ST2 a couple of years ago as well. I use it every day and feel kind of morally obliged to support the developers. I even spend money on Photoshop and Spotify every month.

C++ - I've been making games with Javascript and Python for a while and I want to learn a lower-level language. C++ has quite a few frameworks and engines for game dev so I'm combining the two. I'll also brush up on Node and

I think let is supposed to replace var completely. There's a brief mention of this in a book I was reading the other day (Understanding ES6: https://leanpub.com/understandinges6/read/ ) but no citation of whe

Yeah, I like the default theme. About the only thing I changed was the tab behaviour to highlight modified files ("highlight_modified_tabs": true) and make the folder labels bold in the left-hand menu ("bold_folder_labels": true). Maybe som

I can't recommend Head First Java enough - initially I thought it was too whimsical and lacked depth, but it goes over key points simply and repeatedly until you understand them. If you have OOP experience then a lot of the first half of th
