Ant was already replaced and Maven is nowhere. Wh…

ActionScript Developer’s Guide to Robotlegs

Open source development is well understood in our community. But we shouldn’t take it for granted. I (Stray) was working on some of the diagrams for the book on a flight back from the first ever Robotlegs team meet-up, and the man next to me started asking questions about what I was doing. When I told him I was working on a book about a project that was the collective effort of strangers from…

Do you learn infor- mation from reading, watching videos, usin…

Mathematics in A level assessments

In the UK fewer students engage with mathematics after the age of 16 than do their peers in other countries.

While we speak …

Accounting FOR DUMMIES

First of all, I have to admit that accounting has an image problem. Be honest: What’s the first thing that pops into your mind when you see the word “accountant”? You probably think of a nerd wearing a green eyeshade who has the personality of an undertaker (no offense meant to undertakers, of course).
