Anyone that has studied game development has come across Bob Nystrom's excellent Game Programming Patterns site, well now finally the book is in print and eBook format :) Although all the content is still free on the website, I'd highly recommend picking up a copy, it's such a valuable resource and I find myself going back to it frequently to browse and be reminded of some bad habits I may be letting slip into my code!
I've recently been helping my girlfriend set up her own website and noticed how terribly slow the MySQL backend I'm using on here is.....might up and move the site at some point, unless anyone can point me in the direction of a good MySQL provider in the Azure Western Europe DC?
