Introduction

Hey! My name is Diego and I am currently in the last semester of Computer Systems Engineering.

I just recently started working as a (mainly) back-end web developer intern, so I hope this course will help me in understanding more deeply how systems are designed, and in the end to be capable to structure my own systems and create system architectures that are efficient. Also, this will be my first time programming in Ruby so I'm really curious of what it has to offer.

When am not busy working or doing school stuff, I like to exercise or do any kind of fun activity. I am currently watching a few TV Shows but my favorite one is Game of Thrones.

Is Design Dead?

In this blog, I will discuss the article titled "Is Design Dead?" by Martin Fowler (the same author from the last blog) in May 2004. Design is one of those things programmers (or at least hard core programmers) tend to shy away from. We usually like to jump right into the action not taking into consideration the design, not really thinking of the repercussions of not having a good design. We usually just think that things will fall into its right place, and sometimes we se downside of not implementing design later in the project. The article primarily shows this point showcasing Extreme Programming as one of the responsible programming methods for not taking priority to design. Extreme Programming’s approach to design is evolutionary, not planned design. Meaning that the design comes about just as the creation of the system is implemented. Many people can see this as good or bad. You save some time by creating the design around the current implementation, rather than p

Software Craftsmanship

In this blog, I will discuss the podcast titled "Software Craftsmanship" by Robert Martin produced by Software Engineering Radio in the year 2009. There are a lot of interesting topics touched in this podcast. We could summarize the topic of this talk, into the art of being a master of coding. The crafting is code is intangibly related to the learning of many other disciplines. We learn from the masters, or at least we try to learn to what is immediately in our surroundings. But sometimes it is not enough to only learn from our immediate sources of knowledge (school, teachers, etc), sometimes we must reach beyond and seek learning from other sources. This is true in the programming world, specially in the era of internet when we can learn from hundreds of different sources. As a students who is soon going to graduate I’ve thought of what my life is going to be like after college. Maybe I’ll pick a 9 to 5 job, but what am I going to do in my free time? Maybe rest? Wa
