Hi there my fellow gamedevs and welcome to the 16th episode of the All Things Unity Podcast.

In this episode we will check out chapter 4 of The Pragmatic Programmer called Pragmatic Paranoia. We dive into numerous interesting topics like the concept of designing by contract, assertive programming, when to use exceptions and balancing your resources.

Hi there my fellow gamedevs and welcome to the 15th episode of the All Things Unity Podcast.

In this episode we will continue where we left of last time, and that’s right in the middle of chapter three. We just started talking about debugging and the best is yet to come. In this episode we will also discuss the remaining sections of this chapter. These are Text Manipulation and Code Generators.

In this episode I mention;

My shameless plug to a little library I wrote called SjwagMeister. It’s in early development and far from perfect but it shows the basics. I see some potential in this tool to become one of my basic tools in Unity3D. You can learn more about it here: https://hamersoft.com/project/sjwagmeister/

I hope you enjoyed chapter 3 of The Pragmatic Programmer. Next time we will continue with chapter 4.

Hi there my fellow gamedevs and welcome to the 14th episode of the All Things Unity Podcast.

This time we are going to check out chapter three of The Pragmatic Programmer written by Andrew Hunt and David Thomas. Chapter three is all about the “Basic” tools. We are going to dive into the power of plain text as this is what really drives our industry. Furthermore, we discuss why learning a console interface is a good idea and why it is really important to invent time in really making an IDE your home. You need to know the hotkeys in your tools to really be productive.

Of course our tooling is not complete without source code control. David and Andrew spent some time talking about this too. And last, we will start with the section about debugging. So there’s a lot to cover in here :D.

In this episode I mention numerous things;

The “Git from the Bottom Up” blog I mentioned. Its truly a fascinating read if you are interested in knowing more. It’s also written in a friendly understandable way. https://jwiegley.github.io/git-from-the-bottom-up/

Next I mention a talk by Dylan Beattie about plain text. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gd5uJ7Nlvvo ( It think in the podcast I mention Ian Cooper, whoops)

I also mention the Continuous Delivery book by Dave Farley: https://www.amazon.nl/Continuous-Delivery-Reliable-Deployment-Automation/dp/0321601912

I hope you enjoyed the first part of chapter 3 of The Pragmatic Programmer. Next time we will continue where we left off.
