One of the best articles I read recently! This make me think that I don't know many important thing about API Design :( http://ariya.ofilabs.com/2011/08/hall-of-api-shame-boolean-trap.html Boolean API parameters destroy code readability. After reading it I can agree and I will try avoid it in my code.Fun to read, strongly recommend! API design principles are from Nokia QT library but as author explains they in the root are language agnostic, at least for similar to C languages. http://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/API_Design_Principles

This working example is available at: http://jsdo.it/krzychukula/bOcJ Particles - Three.js - jsdo.it - share JavaScript, HTML5 and CSS

Lorem Ipsum is Boring! Try Samuel L. Ipsum http://slipsum.com/ Example: My money's in that office, right? If she start giving me some bullshit about it ain't there, and we got to go someplace else and get it, I'm gonna shoot you in the head then and there. Then I'm gonna shoot that bitch in the kneecaps, find out where my goddamn money is. She gonna tell me too. Hey, look at me when I'm talking to you, motherfucker. You listen: we go in there, and that nigga Winston or anybody else is in there, you the first motherfucker to get shot. You understand?

http://lucidelectricdreams.com/blog/2011/06/adding-your-own-launchers-to-gnome-shell-dash/ I want to have fast access to ebook I mention yesterday so I wanted to add it to dash... It isn't easy enough! (yes I have in mind that Gnome3 was supposed to be easy... ) After some time with Gnome-Shell many times I want to add something to top Panel like I was adding it to Panels in Gnome2, together with desktop that is only wallpaper I can't have any custom shortcuts on desktop :( Conky is troublesome - I am used to know if CPU and RAM are ok, any ideas for nice conky replacement?

Introduction to functional programming by  Slava Akhmechet http://www.defmacro.org/ramblings/fp.html

My holiday is ending and for start I will review Node Web Development Book from Pack:  http://www.packtpub.com/node-javascript-web-development/book I want to write about which version of node is book about but this can be found only in installation instructions, in my opinion it should be earlier, but I can live with that :) Node version in book: 0.4.8 so in super fast node development it's pretty valid. Book is short, only about 150 pages so this would be rather introduction to Web Development but good to see a chapter about Databases.

Interesting idea to collect answers to most common JavaScript questions. http://jibbering.com/faq/
