In this case they do it, like 10 kilometers from the solar plant is the dam that created the biggest artificial lake in Europe. The dam is prepared to do that as it has a smaller dam after it. The biggest controversy here in Portugal is if

I can't quantify but in my home town, Moura, it had a good impact in local economy. They built there one solar plant with 46 MW capacity which was at the time the biggest in the world. ( http://translate.google.pt/translate?u=http://economi

Ambiguous example formatting strings would give an error, as an invalid one does now. I like the proposal, although localization is an issue as the examples would have to be in a concrete language. Removing unneeded abstractions is positive

The proudly presented see-as-you-type Wave feature is a major example of what you are saying. Real people hated it because it was distractive, annoying and embarassing but they never tought about that because it showed their big technical a

Why working on .NET with C# would hinder a start-up culture? Product scalability? Is that important?

How does this relate to the TDD mindset?

by jacabado 16y ago
I guess the problem comes from the fact that you can't convince any programmer(engineer?) with rational arguments so the evangelists and team leaders need to resort to fairy tales. It's an art in itself which can be mastered without any tec

He was really a language hacker. Most people looked at his writing as most programmers look at Lisp. Ignoring some syntax facilities and abusing on others he could convey meaning as nobody else. While most writers use syntax conventions to

In portuguese Tuesday is terca-feira which literally means third fair, in the article it's in an unusual form 3ª feira , the machine still managed to read it as Tuesday but left there the confusing 3rd. Still an amazing translation.

Bradford sorry for dismissing your post so fast but I don't agree with the way you try to conciliate the two approaches. Those are two different problems at different levels. Minimum Viable Product is a principle to follow at a tactical lev

He lost me here: "A maximum viable product doesn't fail fast - it succeeds slowly as you iterate toward it with minimum viable products and learn along the way." So there's nothing new there, that's what minimum viable product "people" have

I agree completely but that shouldn't drive the way a team works. If the convention says that the code should be as clever as it could be you will have problems. If your tech lead acknowledges some limitations on the team he will have to co

And if you work in heterogeneous teams you are just proving the author's point. If the gifted code is unintelligible to the less skilled how can a team work? Immediately you have the problem of the less skilled not being able to follow the
