I am talking about things being repeated over and over again, far more than just a couple of times.
And the only thing organisations are lacking is sanity. The rest is trivial, proven many times. I will regard all of them as lowly and stupid, because this is what they are.
See my rant elsewhere in this thread - this stupid world is full of examples of idiots in charge.
Are you trying to convince me that the morons who designed Oyster are not morons and I should not judge them? No way. They are scum. Should not I judge the deranged NHS bosses? No way! I'd be delighted to see them beheaded, no less. Their incompetence cost human lives.
And I hate it when people are trying to play down the stupidity of others. In my book there is no sin worse than stupidity and incompetence.
Won't you deny that most of the idiots out there cannot code at all, although they call themselves "developers"?
See even the high profile apps for Android for example. Say, "BBC News". Millions had been spent on it. And this shit locks when internet connection is lost. Don't the retards who wrote it commute on a tube? Don't they know how to code asynchronous UIs?
And don't let me even start ranting about the British Gas "Hive" thingy.
The spread of the ignorance and stupidity in this world is unforgivable. And I won't ever be polite to the stupid and ignorant. They're worthless and they deserve the most harsh criticism possible.
- ownagefool 11y agoSo out of interests, what's so wrong with Oyster in 2016?
- sklogic 11y agoE.g., if you wave in first, read that your balance is low, and then go to a ticket machine to top up, it will be counted as a maximum fare travel. Still the case, after so many years. Those retards did not even think that ticket machines may be available beyond the oyster barriers, but this is very common on many suburban rail stations. And if they were not such scumbags, they did not even have to think about all that at all. There are trivial formal methods to analyse all possible workflows. The fact they were oblivious of such methods is unforgivable. The incompetent uneducated retards should never be allower anywhere near any technology.
- crispyambulance 11y ago>I am talking about things being repeated over and over again, far more than just a couple of times. Actually, no, you specifically said "once". But that's OK, this appears to be an emotional issue for you.
- sklogic 11y agoBy this "once" I meant big, generalisable concepts like CRUD (read this thread, your tiny bash scripts and such are out out of context). For this, yes, once it is discovered, it MUST be automated, and not doing so is unforgivable.
- crispyambulance 11y agoCRUD is "generalizable" only in textbook examples and behind your wet ears. Actual implementations vary widely from the truly simple to things with staggering complexity. Attached to each of the letters in the acronym of C.R.U.D. may be arbitrarily complex rules and constraints that can take many man-years to implement, have mission-critical risks, and require maintenance for decades. ERP's are "crud" applications, are they trivial? Perhaps in your view, admittedly they are shit for end-users and seem "unforgivably" stupid. Well, there's an opportunity for you to become a billionaire in short-order, implement ERP's and make Oracle your bitch. Not up to the challenge? Then perhaps refrain from calling the world stupid.
- sklogic 11y agoYes, they vary widely. With a vast majority of cases being trivial, simpler-than-textbook, and the rest mostly suitable for a nice and clean split between the C.R.U.D. workflow part and all that complex logic you're talking about, which is also usually being implemented by the idiots in a most unsuitable way, using low level languages and no proper abstractions. And yes, ERP is a pile of stupid shit. But you need an army of morally deprived Oracle-style salesmen to sell shit to the world. I know it well, worked a lot with the Oracle "partners" in the past. Oracle is a synonym for "overengineering".
