There is new application for Git that works on Windows and Linux (using Mono). http://code.google.com/p/gitextensions/ This application is interesting because looks stable, and have very friendly installer (msysGit is included). I saw it on Windows and this works pretty stable.

As I buy Kindle I want to read some websites as books. For now I found  http://manual.calibre-ebook.com/faq.html#how-do-i-convert-a-collection-of-html-files-in-a-specific-order I hope it would work :)

PL:  http://www.devblogi.pl/2011/09/rozmiar-jest-wrogiem.html EN: http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/2007/12/size-is-the-enemy.html Really good reading about problem with large code base.

NetBeans IDE 7 Cookbook  by  Rhawi Dantas  is book for developers who want to start using NetBeans. Book can be both for students and those more experienced but not familiar with NetBeans. Most chapters are specific to Java, but there are couple more language agnostic, like using version control systems. I read this book from beginning to end, but this book was created to user when needed. I want to create JavaEE project, check out index, find chapter about it, read while creating and done! Tips for other readers: Do not read chapter about JavaFX - this is about 1.3 version, even Oracle created version 2.0 for Java.  Creating JavaME application is supported only on Windows. Feel free to start reading wherever You want.  Links to book: Book:  http://www.packtpub.com/netbeans-ide-7-cookbook/book Table of contents:  http://www.packtpub.com/toc/netbeans-ide-7-cookbook-table-contents Sample chapter:  http://www.pac...

Searching for MVC library for JavaScript can be difficult, they all are different. How to chose based only on documentation. You can end up with something that not fits You, but has nice looking site ;) Addy Osmani created repo with Todo Examples written in most popular libraries: https://github.com/addyosmani/todomvc With this it can be really easy to try and see how these libraries are really working in more serious app than hello world. Backbone is interesting but I must admit that most of them are rather new to me. YUILibrary and Sproutcore are rather not for me. Anyone is using one of : JavaScriptMVC Knockoutjs Sammyjs Spine Any recommendations? I rather don't want to use something heavy.
