Big Macs vs. The Naked Chef - Joel on Software

by night.kame

The trouble is that the "training" doesn't really produce consistent results, so Youthful Programmer starts creating rules and procedures that are meant to make more consistent results. Over the years, the rule book grows and grows. Soon it's a six-volume manual called The Methodology.

After a few dozen years, Youthful Programmer is now a Huge Incompetent IT Consultant with a capital-M-methodology and a lot of people who blindly obey the Methodology, even when it doesn't seem to be working, because they have no bloody idea whatsoever what else to do, and they're not really talented programmers -- they're just well-meaning Poli Sci majors who attended the six-week course.

Joel Spolsky écrivait cela il y a plus de dix ans. Aujourd'hui, les méthodologies ne sont plus sur la programmation. De la même manière qu'UML2 est passé au niveau meta-meta, les Méthodologies sont désormais à propos des méthodologies. Le pire étant que les déçu de l'Agile qui s'est Méthodologisée sont aussi en train de reconstruire une nouvelle méthodologie, para-Agile.

Russian Technologies set to buy blocking stake in national operating system This summer Russian Technologies, a state corporation aiming to help fuel future technological breakthroughs in Russia, acquired a blocking stake in Alt Linux, a Russian company developing and distributing free off-the-shelf and customized software, and put itself forward as the national operating system operator. The fact that Russian Technologies asked the Ministry of Communications and Mass Media to appoint it operator of the national operating system has been confirmed to this paper by a ministerial source and a top manager of a major Russian IT company. France's Mandriva S.A. open source software company may compete with Russian Technologies in implementing this project, due to annually receive an estimated 10 billion rubles ($306 million) worth of federal allocations. The national operating system is being developed under the new Information Society state program, Deputy Minister of Communications and Mass Media Ilya Massukh said recently. The operator will be selected through a tender to be held in early 2011. Russian Technologies, which bought a blocking stake in Alt Linux through its subsidiary Sirius in July 2010, may eventually acquire a controlling interest. The New Generation Initiative (NGI) Foundation, established by Artur Akopyan, former financial director of Russia's Synterra telecommunications operator and currently managing director of private equity firm Sloane Square Capital Partners (SSCP), also wants to help establish the national operating system. This summer NGI bought a minority stake in Mandriva, which is also involved in the project. In essence, this involves the introduction of free software, first introduced in Russian schools in 2007, in Russian state agencies. At that time, then First Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev and software developers agreed on acquiring a software package at federal expense for a period of three years and the simultaneous development of software that works in a similar way. A total of 2.7 billion rubles ($88.2 million) was allocated to provide schools with licensed software. In 2007-2008, the Armada group teamed up with Alt Linux to deliver software packages to schools in three pilot regions, namely, Tatarstan, the Perm Territory and the Tomsk Region, but it failed to win a nationwide school-software supply tender in 2009. Alt Linux CEO Alexei Smirnov said the National Research Institute of Control Automation in the Non-Industrial Sector (VNIINS), which had developed a Linux version of software from Red Hat, Inc., a major Linux distribution vendor, for the Russian Armed Forces was the company's real rival.

You’ve Got to Have (150) Friends - NYTimes.com

by jeanruaud
Put simply, our minds are not designed to allow us to have more than a very limited number of people in our social world. The emotional and psychological investments that a close relationship requires are considerable, and the emotional capital we have available is limited. Indeed, no matter what Facebook allows us to do, I have found that most of us can maintain only around 150 meaningful relationships, online and off — what has become known as Dunbar’s number. Yes, you can “friend” 500, 1,000, even 5,000 people with your Facebook page, but all save the core 150 are mere voyeurs looking into your daily life — a fact incorporated into the new social networking site Path, which limits the number of friends you can have to 50. What’s more, contrary to all the hype and hope, the people in our electronic social worlds are, for most of us, the same people in our offline social worlds. In fact, the average number of friends on Facebook is 120 to 130, just short enough of Dunbar’s number to allow room for grandparents and babies, people too old or too young to have acquired the digital habit.

Des places qui créent du capital social « Bibliomancienne

une pensée de Petit-Bourgeois: Généralement employé pour signifier que la personne est en dehors de la réalité sociale de la masse. Qu’elle vit dans un univers protégé où la morale de bon comportement, de société où les gens quand la chance leur est donnée devraient naturellement se tourner vers le bon côté des choses.

Une exemple de pensée petit bourgeois : « Si nous créons avec des fonds publics, des espaces culturels, etc. les gens vont naturellement affluer pour se cultiver, pourquoi devraient-ils refuser cela ?  »

La cohésion sociale est très très différente selon les pays, les valeurs d’éducation, et l’évolution économique. Bien que cela fasse longtemps que j’ai quitté la France (10 ans) et que j’ai vécu entre Japon et Canada. Je suis quotidiennement surpris au Québec et au Japon par la docilité des gens, l’« honnêteté » face aux structures collectives et même privée. C’est même très difficile à accepter pour moi. Cela ne tient pas du réflexe naturel.

En espérant que cela aide à comprendre. Ah oui autre chose pour comprendre le contexte du qualificatif, les français sont en général très directs sur les débats d’idées, sanguins, … ce qui aussi est quelque chose qui m’a valu parfois des troubles ici, car mes idées étaient exprimées trop brutalement.

Donc ne pas trop prendre à cœur l’épithète en question

5 Lessons from 150 startup pitches

by Spone
I just reviewed several hundred startup pitches for Capital Factory. Most were on paper and video; 20 were invited to pitch in person. Interesting patterns emerged: Everyone makes the same classes of error. Those who avoided just one of those errors stood out in the crowd. These are problems with the business concept or the founder's attitude, not specific to raising angel money.

Décroissance (économie) - Wikipédia

by keusta
Les partisans de la décroissance contestent en effet l'idée d'un développement économique infini : selon eux, le taux de production et de consommation ne peut pas être durablement accru ni même maintenu, dans la mesure où la création de richesse mesurée par les indicateurs économiques comme le PIB correspond à une destruction du capital naturel et que ce dernier est épuisable.
