I've been very active today. That is, compared to the normal me. My girlfriend dragged me down to the shore to wash our carpets. By hand. By scrubbing. Geeks don't scrub. Oh, the pain.
Once that was done, it was vacuuming time. Geeks don't vacuum. But I did. Oh, the pain.
Then, it's time to go downtown to fetch a couple of bottles of a particular red wine my girlfriend absolutely insisted on having. Oh, and we came back with a brand new shiny (read: expensive) blender as well. Oh, the monetary pain.
The worst thing about tomorrow is that when my muscles hurt like hell, I know it's my own fault for not exercising more...
Google seems to have it in for you even before that interview.
(Note: I already tried all known 10-digit primes against the first 52 digits of e, without a match...)
Chris Matts, the other Agile Business Coach (the other is Andy Pols), has blogged a link to the original waterfall paper by Winston Royce, and an accompanying rant about why the big consultancies never actually read the paper.
What can I say? I absolutely agree with Chris. I have no love for people who still go around claiming that the best way to build software is to start by spending a couple of million bucks on paper with some writing on it...
Apparently, Google's IPO will bring us a stock ticker worthy of the company: GOOG.
