Google Cloud Courses: A review.

My current employer has immersed us in a self learning frenzy giving many of his tech personnel access to a number of learning platforms:

  • Coursera: for Google Cloud Platform related education.
  • LinkedIn learning: for misc learning stuff, ranging from self-improvement and management stuff to very specific technical topics.
  • Slang: an app for developing english language skills.
Soon i will give a general review on each of these 3 platforms, but for now i will focus on reviewing the Google Cloud courses ia have taken, which are at introductory level:

  • Google Cloud Platform Fundamentals: Core Infrastructure
  • Getting Started with Google Kubernetes Engine
  • Exploring ​and ​Preparing ​your ​Data with BigQuery
  • Introduction to Cloud Identity

Fabiano Caruana kicking ass like a madman at Sinquefield Cup, perfect score so far.

Now, fo

Smart Mobile Studio, the rise of compiled JS programming languages and why the future is happening right now.

Javascript is the present and future of pretty much every web based technology either desktop or backend, no doubt about it, just look at the impressive momentum of tools suchs as Angular and Node.js, look at the efforts of giant companies strongly trying to deliver the next holy grail of  JS compiled programming languages, to my mind comes Microsoft with Typescript and Google with Dart. They both try to fill the gap between an obscure and alien language like JS and the elegance and productivity of object oriented, garbage collected languages. If you (like me) miss some nice IDE with superproductive features that enable to build production quality JS desktop and server apps i recommend you to look no further at software giants like already mentioned Google and Microsoft the answer to your problems could be in a small, Norway based software shop. Smart Mobile Studio is the creation of a small team of programming gurus very well known inside the Delphi Community, did i say "Delp
