they were like good, then we're sending in our 'web' correspondents
little tussle in India with Obama's press. I know that's right!
it's someone testing a new twitter client, that's my guess.
someone I am following just posted a billion tweets, then quickly removed them. I didn't catch the name.
I didn't say it, I typed it. Half asleep. Watching TV. Programming in another window. The cat just walked by.
no one knows where Tuesday goes each week, except that it's a flurry/fury of activity
apparently Monday's problems can be blamed on Friday.
the rest of the week is for solving Monday's problems
oh good more cranky Monday tweets. There should be a filter for that.
Then look at what you're not doing, and strive to do that in your Vision. Your Mission Statement should clarify the steps.
How to avoid this happening at your IT or software company? Put your vision down that reflects everything your company is loved for.
I think this all comes down to management however... which means Apple could go that way, Microsoft could straighten up, Google less rude.
Will it work OK next year? If it doesn't blame your developers. Why? Well we've got new .NET that they should be using now!
Perhaps it is engrained in the business-oriented aspects of MS software. Businesses want something fast, now. MS delivers on that.
Also the developer community really pulled together on classic ASP. But in all the online gatherings we always asked: WTF is up with MS?
Amazing that Microsoft pushed their ASP 3.0 fiasco off onto developers. VBScript to the rescue on that one.
Of course, the businesses I developed for up to that point had no grasp of the true situation. They didn't want to upgrade to .NET.
This was back in 2002 or so when .NET was released. I'll never forget the panic as I searched in vain for ASP 3.0 MSDN docs.
They had removed them! All replaced with .NET. Thousands of pages of ASP specifications gone in a day...
Fortunately I picked up on this quickly... Classic ASP websites need to be maintained... uh MS where the hell is the online docs for ASP?
Example after example can be found: XNA Indie developers can't offer achievements. The Flight development team axed. Silverlight. etc, etc.
Good example of Microsoft inaction: there's all this software made for Windows. does MS catalog it? No. Download.com and Sourceforge do.
Apple seems different than other companies. They are making billions now, but they aren't losing sight of what made them great.
I think once Microsoft and Google knew they were 'entrenched', they decided to get away with what they could.
Why doesn't Microsoft treat developers as independent contractors aka businesses? No one knows. A group they chose to spite I guess.
Apple acts and says what they mean. Microsoft acts like a schizophrenic retard to developers, but a mild-mannered business to 'businesses'.
