10 Jun 2009 : The Computer Language Benchmarks Game #
Ever wanted to compare the speed of the same program written in different languages? No? Well, you should have. I do it all the time. Unfortunately this site only covers GNU/Linux (no Windows .Net), but personally I think it's still fascinating.

Object-oriented programming is still the programming paradigm of the moment, even if the foreword to this book says the same thing from back in 1993. But this book elegantly demonstrates the obvious truth that OOP is really a discipline, not a paradigm. You can do OOP really well using C. Written by Axel-Tobias Schreiner.
