The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing. I am the wisest man alive, for I know one thing,
|

and that is that I know nothing.

|
||
Truth is sought for its own sake … Finding the truth is difficult, and the road to it is rough.
|
||
For the truths are plunged in obscurity … God, however, has not preserved the scientist from error
|
||
and has not safeguarded science from shortcomings and faults. If this had been the case,
|
||
scientists would not have disagreed upon any point of science… Therefore, the seeker after the
|
||
truth is not one who studies the writings of the ancients and, following his natural disposition,
|
||
puts his trust in them, but rather the one who suspects his faith in them and questions what he
|
||
gathers from them, the one who submits to argument and demonstration, and not to the sayings
|
||
of a human being whose nature is fraught with all kinds of imperfection and deficiency.
|
||
Thus the duty of the man who investigates the writings of scientists, if learning the truth is his
|
||
goal, is to make himself an enemy of all that he reads, and, applying his mind to the core and margins
|
||
of its content, attack it from every side. He should also suspect himself as he performs his critical
|
||
examination of it, so that he may avoid falling into either prejudice or leniency.

** Five basic principles of a scientist
|
||
- Question Authorities, No idea is true just because someone says so, *Including me*.
|
||
- Think for yourself. Question yourself.
|
||
- Don't believe anything just because you want to, believing something doesn't make it so. Test ideas
|
||
by evidence gained from observation and experiments. If a favorite idea failed a well designed test, *It's wrong, get over it*.
|
||
- Follow the evidence, where ever it leads. If you have no evidence, reserve judgment.
|
||
- And *the most important* of all, remember you could be wrong, even the best scientists have been wrong
|
||
about something. every great scientist in the history made mistake. Of course they did, we are only human.
|
||
Science keeps us from fooling ourselves and *each other*
|
||
|
||
** To myself
|
||
- Being a scientist means to be underestimated or misunderstood by others. When you come across people who
|
||
ignore you, or don't take you seriously just stick to your scientific principals. Science is absolute but
|
||
people's opinion are not. Think of those scientists who had to suffer in the past for the same reason,
|
||
you're not alone.
|
||
|
||
* Software Engineering
|
||
|
||
- Simplicity over Complexity
|
||
- Simple first, then Easy
|
||
- Abstraction, Abstraction, Abstraction
|
||
- Put your conventions layer on top of a well written abstraction
|
||
- Always choose a name for your variables which implies the variable content or usage.
|
||
- Never ever use variable names such as x, a, b, etc.
|
||
- Bugs before new features
|
||
- Docs before new features
|
||
|
||
** Library design
|
||
Major releases can contain backward incompatible changes. It's better to use a different code name
|
||
instead of a major version number change to indicate that there going to be backward incompatible changes.
|
||
Minor releases shouldn't break the dependency versions. E.g: X(0.6.0) depends on Python(3.5.x), X(0.7.0)
|
||
should depends on the same version python
|
||
|
||
** New Feature Checklist
|
||
- Is it easy to extend the feature ?
|
||
- Is it scalable ?
|
||
- Is it easy to maintain ?
|
||
- Is it well documented ?
|
||
- Does it have the best possible performance ?
|
||
- What about tests ?
|
||
- Is it following the correct coding style ?
|
||
|
||
** Resiliency Checklist
|
||
|
||
- Things that might fail: + Dependent systems
|
||
+ Network + External storage
|
||
+ Database
|
||
+ "The Cloud"
