I guess I’m getting old
It looks like I’m old in the computer world 
After being a developer for ~15 years I can look back fondly at the “old school techniques we certainly don’t miss“. I do fondly look back at some of the things talked about but it’s true, I don’t miss it. Frankly I’m glad that with the exception of some applications I don’t really have to think about the Big O of my sorting/search algorithm or have to write finicky TSRs in Pascal (that would frequently reboot or cause you to reboot your system). I am surprised that linked lists with unprotected memory didn’t make the list. If you think writing TSRs would reboot your system a lot you’ve never tried allocating your own pointers in an OS with memory that was just right for the clobbering. Yes, I do realize this is just a form of me telling you about “tying onions to one’s belt because it was the style of the time” but that’s a story for another day.
Be sure to thank your programming forefathers for their sacrifices so you have things like virtual memory, protected memory, OS based threads, dynamic arrays and making geek… sheek.

Google ups the stakes for web developers
Today Google released Page Speed which is a competitor to YSlow. Both are Firebug add-ons for the wildly popular Firefox.
The good news is it looks like Page Speed does everything that YSlow does and then some! On my first run Page Speed warned me about using descendant selectors in my CSS and suggested that I could better compress some images on the page. Better yet, it linked me to the suggested compressed version of the image so I could simply save it off and upload it.
Overall if you are a web developer it behooves you to have both YSlow and Page Speed installed in your Firefox so you can always make sure you are delivering the fastest user experience on the web.
