Useful links

It often happens that I stumble upon interesting things on the internet or just useful articles/blogs/videos. Maybe someone else will find them useful too, so I’ll collect them here. In one post. And I’ll gradually update it.

Blogs

• Kevin Newton

  Ruby developer, author of Prism

Youtube

• Write and Submit your first Linux kernel Patch

  A kernel maintainer explains and shows how you can easily contribute to Linux. Anyone can do it!

• Linus Torvalds on git

  Linus explains why Git is good and why other tools suck. He insults people, answers questions, and brags about Git’s performance. A fun talk.

• How to Do 90% of What Plugins Do (With Just Vim)

  A video from a Vim Meetup about how to use Vim without plugins while barely losing anything.

• Mastering the Vim Language

  Another video from a Vim Meetup. The title speaks for itself.

Channels

• Luke Smith

  A cool linguist guy who preaches open-source ideology, uses Arch Linux, Vim, and suckless software. He has plenty of educational Linux and Arch videos. There are also conversational videos where he shares his strange (or maybe not so strange) thoughts. I’ve learned a lot from him.
