Kanban Isn't the Answer to Bad Product Ownership - LeadingAgile - 6 views

  •  
    When teams can't get well groomed product backlog, it is almost impossible to do Scrum. Teams spend too much time figuring out what to build during sprint planning and not enough time figuring out how to build it. They never really consider if the stories were estimable, nor discuss how they could swarm to get the stories done earlier in the sprint. Teams don't work as teams, daily standup meetings suck, and teams miss commitment after commitment.

Building Windows for the ARM processor architecture - Building Windows 8 - MSDN Blogs - 5 views

  • apps from Microsoft
    • Joel Bennett
       
      These are "apps from Microsoft" ... not necessarily Office. Note that Office 15 doesn't include Outlook!
  • desktop versions
  • WOA supports the Windows desktop experience including File Explorer, Internet Explorer 10 for the desktop, and most other intrinsic Windows desktop features
    • Joel Bennett
       
      I can't decide if this is a goot thing or not. It seems like it supports the Windows desktop BUT NOT 3rd party desktop apps -- is this just because they couldn't get around to rewriting all the utility apps in Metro style (and recompiling was easier), or because they actually want to support deskop apps?

  • integrated, end-to-end products—hardware, firmware and WOA software
  • Partners will provide WOA PCs as integrated, end-to-end products that include hardware, firmware, and Windows on ARM software
    • Joel Bennett
       
      Read this as: WOA devices are not user-serviceable, you won't be able to sideload apps, and you deffinitely shouldn't expect to be able to build your own from parts.
  • Within the Windows desktop, WOA includes desktop versions of the new Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote, codenamed “Office 15”. WOA will be a no-compromise product for people who want to have the full benefits of familiar Office productivity software and compatibility, an industry-leading hardware-accelerated web browser, apps from Microsoft, and access to apps in the Windows Store.

      "No compromise" ... that's certainly one spin on it.

Talk: The Care and Feeding of C++'s Dragons (speaker: Chandler Carruth) | channel9.msdn... - 1 views

  • Last year I described C++ as bearing the cautionary label ‘Here Be Dragons.’ And yet we’re all still writing C++ because it is the best programming language for the problems we face. In turn, we need a strategy to deal with the “dragons” that reside in large C++ code bases. The Dragon Book (my old compiler textbook) taught about a collection of tools to address the complexity of compiler design, and while our challenge is somewhat different, the approach remains the same. When a mere mortal programmer ventures forth to battle the complexity of large software systems in C++, they’re going to need some really good tools to help them. At Google, we’ve been building up a platform of such tools. I will introduce the platform and toolset, and show how to use them to write fast and correct C++ code, quickly and correctly.I will also give a peek into the future of the next generation of tools we’re working on and some of the really interesting changes to C++ that are coming in the next few years to help both programmers and these tools be ever more effective.

Shedding Bikes: Common Programmer Health Problems - 0 views

  • Overall the general cause of all of these problems can be summarized as treating programming as an obsession. You may want to be very good at it, like I did, so you exclude everything else in your life in order to master it. You don't go to the bathroom, you have macho 10 hour coding sessions, you don't eat right, and all manner of mythological beliefs about "real programmers".
  • try to not start at a computer screen for at least 2 hours a whole day
  • Frequently programmers will think that the lighting in a room is what gives them headaches from using a computer, but really it's bad posture, shitty fonts, not drinking enough water, and just using the computer for too long at a stretch
    • omouse
       
      very very true
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • I feel more awake and rested during the day. If I stay up late and sleep in I feel like I have a hangover and I can get headaches.
  • If you constantly feel "stiff" or unable to move well, then you probably need to stretch regularly
  • I'm not sure why this is, but a relaxed mind is crucial to spontaneous creativity and idea generation
  •  
    Programming is a deceptively damaging field to be in, partly because it doesn't seem like you're doing much, and also because of the attitude many programmers have toward their body. You should care about keeping yourself healthy because, when your body is in good shape, that removes "friction" from your mental capacity so that it can focus on important things rather than annoying little problems with your physical wellness.

The 7 Software "-ilities" You Need To Know - 0 views

  • 1. Usability Software usability can be described as how effectively end users can use, learn, or control the system
  • 2. Maintainability ( or Flexibility / Testibility) The definition of maintainability [for me] implies how brittle the code is to change
  • 3. Scalability Scalability is the ability for your program to gracefully meet the demand of stress caused by increased usage
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • 4. Availability (or Reliability) How long the system is up and running and the Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) is known as the availability of a program
  • 5. Extensibility Are there points in the system where changes can be made with (or without) program changes?
  • 6. Security I shouldn’t need to go into this one but to be thorough I like this definition of security: the measure of system’s ability to resist unauthorized attempts at usage or behavior modification, while still providing service to legitimate users.
  • 7. Portability Portability is the ability for your application to run on numerous platforms.

Windows: A Monopoly Shakes - Microsoft Watch - Operating Systems - 0 views

  • Windows' enterprise adoption declined 3.7 percent, going from 98.6 percent in January to 94.9 percent in December. Mac OS gained 3 percent, going from 1.2 to 4.2 percent in the same time frame. Linux gained 0.5 percent in 2007.
  • Apple, with its enterprise share growing threefold
    • Joel Bennett
       
      Yeah, that's more like it -- they're going to be reporting 300% growth in the enterprise, I'm sure.
  •  
    Windows use in the enterprise (it's traditional stronghold) has declined almost 4% to about 95% in the last year ... It's just a tiny sliver, but the real question is: is it enough to make Apple start catering to their enterprise customers?

Jonathan Schwartz's Blog: Sun's Cloud (4 of 4) - 0 views

  • our sales and partner force has a tenth the resources of our biggest peers.
    • David Corking
       
      Is he talking about IBM, EMC, Microsoft, Oracle, Cisco and SAP? I beat Sun has more pony tails than its peers. I would like to see those numbers.
  • inside Sun, we're just now rolling out a version of OpenOffice extended for the cloud.
    • David Corking
       
      Simple but sweet. I doubt it wil beat Google Docs for attracting collaborating groups, but it might! Corporations may want to do something similar with their private storage. How do they avoid malicious macros propagating from one cloud user to the next?
  • VB users will see a new feature later this year, offering an upload service to those wishing to archive or run multiple OS/application stacks - in Sun's Cloud.
    • David Corking
       
      VB doesn't mean "Visual Basic" any longer. This is clever leverage, I think, and one that will be supported by the open source community, because the cloud specs are open documents.

  • Clouds are just as interesting to students and startups as they are to Fortune 500 customers.

      perhaps much more interesting?

    Inspiring radical vision for open source to win in the long term.

Transcode AVI to be Compatible with Premiere Pro. - YouTube - 0 views

  •  
    When importing an #AVI file, #Adobe #Premiere Pro including the recent Premiere Pro sometimes returns the error "Unable to open that file. File uses an unsupported compression format." This often happens with AVI files that were created by digital still cameras or software that doesn't correctly support the AVI standard. The problem is that video files have been overloaded to contain different sorts of data, which is very annoying and now it's almost impossible to support them all. So, any fix to resolve the issues?
