    Most programming books start with tips for starters. I don’t think that’s a good way to do it. I want books that get into the programming techniques the pros use. What to use when building functions, how to build a proper class within the goals set. I think this is better than explaining the reserved words or other things that belong to an encyclopedia.

    You can choose a custom donation and make most of your money go to the EFF. Then the top tier is just like a €24 donation to the EFF and you only really “pay” €10.30 for the actual books.

    I looked at the blurb for this and yawned. Other stuff from Humble has varied from great to crap.
