I don't disagree with the comments about the triteness of this page and other articles like it. That doesn't mean it's entirely without value though. Think of it as like a financial budget: you know you're not going to hit it completely and some of the items you've budgeted for will turn out to be unnecessary or wasteful. At the end of the budget period, though, it gives you something to measure actual performance against.
- joe_the_user 17y agoHonestly, I think it's seems like a great check list for finding holes in one's background and education. If you could make it into a wiki, it would be good since then the hole's in the author's experience could also be filled.
- ratsbane 17y agoWhat would add to or remove from the original matrix? What I would change: - add mention of RFCs, e.g. 2616 (HTTP) and 1738 (URL)
- sorbits 17y agoI would introduce ‘make’ in the build automation (level 3) section. Understanding make (dependency graphs, splitting up the build process into small tasks which can be parallelized, restarted, and leave an exact record of how much was succesfully built) I consider a valuable trade and magnitudes better than “writing your own build script” (as is presently what is the level 3 skill).
- wgj 17y ago+1 for wiki suggestion. The value in an exercise like this is the insight into the collective assessment, especially spanning different software disciplines, and with broader expert input.
