RE: Dumbing-down AOP

Merrick Schincariol explains Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP) and attempts to dumb-it-down to my level. This is not an easy task, but he does it well. [Blogging Roller]

This is a great article - thanks Merrick. This is what I've always thought it was, but I was never quite sure. If all I need to do (to implement AOP) is add the aspect class to my classpath - this seems super simple. This doesn't make me want to refactor any existing projects to use AOP, but it does make me want to use it on my next project. Then again, appfuse and moblogger have a pretty small codebase at this point - maybe now is the time for refactoring?

The Pragmatic Programmer

Tip o' the Day: Critically Analyze What You Read and Hear Don't be swayed by vendors, media hype, or dogma. Analyze information in terms of you and your project. I began reading The Pragmatic Programmer this morning. I bought the book after hearing that it was Erik Hatcher's favorite technical book. Since Erik's Java Development with Ant was my favorite technical book - I figured this was a good recommendation. I've read one chapter and I'm loving it. This book will inspire me to be a better programmer - I can already tell.

I don't do nearly enough reading - too much blogging and OS development. So I'm going to try to read more - as David and Andrew recommend - at least one book a month. Actually, I'm going to shoot for two books per month - one technical and one non-technical. I'd compare this book to Rich Dad, Poor Dad, which I think is a great book for motivating good financial health. I read that bad boy last week in 2 hours!
