In various forms NASA's been following the general practices laid out in the top 10 list for decades. Hyper paranoid defensive coding rules haven't really needed to change much in a long time.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Nice Read...Thanks for sharing

I think sdtimes.com has to be the most annoying software-related web site I've ever seen. EVERY page navigation triggered the stupid f***ing ad overlay or a "how do you like SDTimes?" prompt.

With those rules, you might as well have a rule "just don't write any code", because it is clearly impossible to comply and still do anything nontrivial. Rules 1 and 2 together mean that it's not even Turing complete, and rules 3 and 9 together mean that the only possible data structure is a fixed size array. You could create a variable size array during initialization, but then rule 2 means you can never use more than a constant piece of it.

Computers have figured out how to win at chess, checkers and tic-tac-toe, and now, a computer program has conquered the game of poker. He's bluffing

Only if it knows your hand.
Edit: The only way to win is not to play.

Feel free to publicly challenge the application.

Enough of the stand-up meetings please, just WRITE SOME CODE "One of you... must do this."

Aw stick it in your backlog.

I will not even reply to such a troll! I will not tell you how terribly stupid that article is. I refuse to be dragged into this discussion and tell you how confused he is that he says that Agile should be this and should be that, when the true definition of Agile is already a lot of what he is trying to say it ought to be.
Nope. I won't even reply. Won't do it.

Thank you. It's good to see rational people agreeing with each other.

I like that most of his suggestions, like "Just ship, then fix based on customer feedback" is pretty much what I understand Agile to be. (Ignoring the invocations of Agile)

He just hates standing up in a conf room with 8 other people before he's had his 3rd morning coffee. Oh wait, that's me.

Sure, but that's just Scrum, not all of Agile.

The problem with Scrum is that too often it can degenerate into a ruck, or a rolling maul...especially if the only intent is to keep the ball moving.

Silliness.
Like any tool, the agile development process needs to be used properly in order for it to be effective. A vacuum cleaner is much better when it comes to removing dust than a spoon. But please don't use it to stir your coffee.

It's a fill in the blank URL
There's six letters that have been blanked out.
To complete the phrase "Mother******", I have tried:
MotherTeresa, that didn't work.
MotherNature, no.
Motherof-all, no.
MotherLode, is too short.
There can't be that many.
Someone will figure it out...
