The problem is that “experience” has no value in our industry, unless it is recent experience with some technology, framework, language, and the memorization of those algorithms and data-structures.

This claims 1 and -1 is confusing, then proceeds to use the confusion. Why not use the language of the problem domain? The rules are unambiguous. An increase in assets are a DR, increase in liabilities a CR, in income a CR, in expenses a DR

I think for many it would be more like… “bah! you don't need no plans or design! I’m an agile™ architect and will lay brick using microbrickservices™ and the runnyconcreteframework™ and see where we go from there”

The USA can continue overspending, lending and making payments, all while taxing minimally - for a limited time only. Eventually, that equation will need to change. The choices are tighten the belt and/or increase taxes, war and the ap

My take is that Apple are doing the maximum possible to protest their disagreement with consumer protection laws interfering with their ability to do whatever they want. Their announcement has the tone of a spoilt child, with an air of puni

Are non-functional requirements all there is these days? Instead of “developers, developers, developers”, is the new mantra “plumbing, plumbing, plumbing, (and infrastructure)”?

Made up the term, but didn't invent object orientation. The real inventors were more generous.

You can use an object domain model to model a complex system. Something more common in say Java than .NET with its traditional “wizard” based tooling legacy. Worth looking up if all you know is recordsets and datasets.

Been away from .NET for many years. In those days, business logic was largely represented as procedural code using classes for organization, manipulating recordsets or datasets. Is that still the case?

Write after you’ve been there for 2 years, instead of at the start. That new thing always looks like a flawless shiny new silver bullet when starting out.

A large proportion of software projects are internal systems which are not being delivered to external 3rd parties. Nor are they online products primarily for consumption by the public. These are the systems that run the world in banking, f

One of the ways I identify many young Brits, is their insistence on saying “I was sat there” instead of “I was sitting there”. Or, “He was stood there” instead of “He was standing there”. Perhaps the high proportion of incorrect traditional

Supply simply far exceeds demand. Unless your highly specialized, connected, lucky or perceived as a “James Bond”, the employment market is dire. This is the inevitable consequence of too many entrants into the market, past over-hiring, and

While it would be ideal if all the software devs writing say a General Ledger application were accountants, the reality is that will not be the case. I call domains where expertise lies outside of the software development team - “external d

My take on this is that in the USA, software development is now viewed as the creation of an asset with a lifetime of 5 or 15 years. Accordingly, its cost (including labor) can only be expensed (depreciated) over that time period. It is thi

Sadly it seems that big tech in more modern times than that of the article, own their own universes and don’t want to share.

From the comments here, I’m amused how ready people are to immediately believe anything written on the internet without question. Does critical thinking go out of the window if it appears on a website?

Is it even possible to outperform the market in the long term, without some violation of the Efficient Market Hypothesis? Without insider knowledge/trading or some technical mechanism to access information or trades faster?

Rather than lazy programmers or evil managers, I think what primarily stops us keeping software simple is that we often seek to model complex systems, or code complex problems. Given this, the “wrong tool (technology or language) for the jo

Of course they are hard. Instead of a well modularized application where applicable, lets create multiple distributed programs that need to communicate across an unreliable network. Why? Because its fashionable, others are doing it, its a s
