That's the reporters writing. The whole point of these people is that they couldn't give a toss about what womankind does or does not owe them. They've chosen not to play the game.

There's no such thing as just vendored. If you include a 3rd party library in a nuget package, and the developer using that package also includes that 3rd party library. It can cause problems.

You normally list dependencies in the nuspec, which will download the dependencies for you.

The specification of an algorithm is the code. Other ways of defining an algorithm is simply a useful but leaky abstraction. Once you understand that code is the (highly detailed)design, a lot of the reasons why software is so hard to do we

Actually software can be repeatedly created with 100% accuracy. Writing software is creating the design of a gun. Not the construction.

Because the vast majority of the ecosystem isn't .net core ready. So you end quite major libraries not being available.

I'm not saying you should refuse to estimate, I'm saying giving an accurate estimate is verging on the impossible. You can attempt to do it, but people shouldn't expect it to be accurate. I'm just saying they are probabl

I dont think most people have issues with estimation of day to day stuff, like changing some text on screen. They have issues with, let's integrate x product with our product.

Err, not really. Completely different workflows. Solving different problems. For different types of people. They have probably spent a lot of time and money paying UX guys trying to optimise for their unique situation. I would assume they r

The problem with scoping a project is that no one really knows what's they want at first. Developing software also involves discovering the real user issues by experimentation. If you scope it, you may deliver the project, but you prob

And they probably got the estimates wrong for those unique projects.

Civil engineering and software engineering are fundamentally different because software is digital. You can't download the building package. You actually have to build the building again. If it's the same building I would expect t

I don't think most business leaders are looking for estimates, where the developer admits it's probably way off, but it's his best guess. Or huge range of possible release dates(because there is huge variation between the es

I don't mind giving estimates, if they used it as estimates, and people internalise that I may have gotten it badly wrong because something wildly unexpected has happened. In reality though, business try to use estimates to preasure s
618.
by UK-AL 10y ago
Yes, that is part of the problem. People asking for estimates arn't looking for probability distribution of potential completion dates. They are looking for estimates to hold you to account, because that's how you run a good busin

I would not class it as research, but unique problems. Say you are integrating some software into PayPal. Lots of people have integrated PayPal. However no one has integrated your software into PayPal before otherwise you wouldn't be d

The hard part in estimating a language wouldn't be writing the parser. It would be experimenting with different ideas for the language, which would require trial and error and experimentation. That would be hard to estimate. As with mo

If your doing similar work over and over again as a programmer, your not doing a good job.

Just because it does it in tempdb, doesn't mean its not MVCC. That's an implementation detail.

What sort of machine are you running to get 150000 USD? It's approximately 3-4 k per core using standard.

Relative to salaries required to get similar features setup on open source databases with support, yes. EnterpriseDB which is basically support for PostGres is almost as expensive.

Most of those SQL server can do. There isn't really a need for VACUUM on SQL sever.

I think core based licensing is reasonable for scaling.
629.
by UK-AL 10y ago
Normally you run SQL server in some kind of cluster, so you flip the cluster to run off the other server, do your updates, then flip back. This is fully automated for us. Seamless from user perspective. I assume other database products requ

SQL sever doesn't have a "Data center" license. You would license SQL sever on a core based licensing model, which doesn't use CAL's. If anyone can purchase a login to your website, that's still classed as publ
