Truth is you need to get s t done, I see a lot of mediocre developers hiding behind agile processes, when they can't figure out something they throw their hands in the air and scream "bad requirements" , boohoo man-up and do

Wow, finally an honest article, why hold on to mediocre employees , no need to buy donuts or pretend this is a 'people focus' company. What matters is your bottom line

Please read his indictment application, there is clearly a reason why he was arrested. If 'researchers" are allegedly selling malware then yes they should worry. Simple

Oh god, this is awful, enjoy the 15 mins of fame because most likely this is the last time this website will enjoy such a spike in traffic

you have to look at it from a different perspective, a business exists to make money, being terse, assertive and direct doesn't make one unkind. the drawn out process of cajoling souls into doing something is the equivalent of burning

As a developer, kindness is EARNED, you want people to be kind to you despite of who you are and your mediocre contribution to the code base , unnecessarily refactoring code when you're meant to be working on an important feature ? No

Mediocrity cannot be remedied, unless you are a big company where you have dedicated departments to cater for these sort of people ( and by the way, they aim to accomplish the same outcome, just a little bit slower and more paperwork). All

I honestly think your employers have been super generous already, one ought to know what is expected of him/her and realise they shouldn't leave themselves open to criticism by abusing the trust of the employer, always be in a pos

I am not sure what to think of these pictures, it triviliases the entire subject and makes it look child like, no engineer worth his salt will be seen with these doodles on his desk. Stop reading as soon I saw that

comparing this glorified set of aliases to Maven and gcc shows a fundamental misunderstanding of said tools

This right here, this thing will only attract new developers and will delay the inevitable - which is learning git properly. Reminds of a banana peeling machine ....

Don't bother, learning GIT is a transferable skill, this will be thrown out as soon as you join a proper development team . Gimmicky at best

i think you're trying to use a tool that doesnt quite fit your team, no need to enforce something that the team is not comfortable with. get a product owner & scrum master.

having it "just Work" is relative even in academia and R&D, again, there are domain specific languages being used in these environments that "just work" and have been designed to do so in the most efficient manner.

by throwme_1980 10y ago
Genuine question, As a professional developer, why would you restrict yourself to such technology? what we should be asking here is why? give me one scenario where this language is more appropriate than the plethora of other domain specifi

~This is why teams fails, i have posted something similar few weeks ago, unless he has extensive domain knowledge or your boss wants this guy to be there for some weird reason, i'd say get rid now, everyone is replaceable.

i can go on all day about this, but this comment has summarised it nicely, you have to understand that to be compliant with DO-178b/c you need to do an un-godly amount of v&v and other things that literally cost millions $ per quar

c++ is not considered safe for any RTOS system, in fact you won't find it used in Aviation embedded devices (referring to the big 3 ) Tools yes, you can higher level languages to your heart's content.

at the risk of sounding harsh, do you have any savings? how much experience under your belt, presumably if 3 days a week contracting is not enough to feed you and keep the lights on then you are probably just starting out. build up a pile o

Exactly how teams fail, they skim on what's important, i am not saying you should be hiring A players from the start all the way, in my personal opinion, 90% of commercial software can be built with a bunch of honest average-joe-follow
