Get geeked
For those budding (and indeed established) geeks out there, a few resources from O’Reilly to get you off on the right foot:
- Alphabetical Directory of
Linux Commands. All the way from
agetty
toznew
– a very handy command-line companion with all options explained and exampled (yes that is a verb). One for your bookmarks. - PHP Foundations. A programmers guide to learning PHP for people with no PHP experience. Heaps of articles starting from basic syntax up to PHP objects and C-style references. Good stuff.
- Summary of Regular Expressions. We’ve all gotta learn regex at some point. Maybe.
