No Documentation and Time

Today, during the discussion with our fellow developer from offshore noticed the following statement about documentation and time. Thought that it is time to share my feelings with world on this kind of statement(s). Most of us come across such statement from some one or the other, or most of us use these statements in some time or other


.. my feelings is that you guys are used to work with the well defined structure, document and think like that, we lack of that here, we just don't have time to do much of that. I use to work with <<xx>> tool, we used to make a lot of UML design doc, UseCases every thing, but here we don't .. no time for documentation ..


The above statement has 2 controversial concepts.

  1. Follow the Standards
  2. Have NoTime

My understanding towards this goes as mentioned below,


First - NO STANDARDS : Who creates these Standards .. aren't these created by individuals like us??? why people are used to relate them with companies ??? and blame on organisations ??? if there is a practice that is resulting and implemented in an organisation, the employees who is currently working with that company ignore them when they join new organisation and start blame the new organisation. Would like conclude on this topic is, STANDARDS doesn't belong to organisations, but to INDIVIDUALs


Second - HAVE NOTIME : A big laugh, recollect from some old book that, "TIME IS THERE WITH THOSE WHO PLAN". To justify the statement, Prime Minister / Chief Minister / You and ME / Every one 's time is totally planned in-advance with regular stuff like sleep / wakeup / bath / travel / eat / blah .. blah .., isn't it. But what happens if there a sudden requirement for these guys to attend. In case of CMs / PMs they will plan again to reschedule all their plans. Isn't it. But what about those who say,

  • ‘skipped our breakfast as we don’t have time in the morning..’
  • ‘skipped lunch due to heavy work load and no time to visit loo ..’
  • ‘skipped blah .. blah.. due to no time ..’

To me, "HAVE NO TIME" is really a statement with no meaning... GUYS !!!! Wakeup and start planning, then you have lot's of time


Anyhow, pl comment

Is Architecture = Design of the application

Image
Today morning, I’ve attended an interview with one of the prestigious companies of the world. It doesn’t matter what company is that, but all that matters is the significant means of the questions and the replies by me. I can’t post the entire dialogue questions here, but what I can point here is the gist of the interview. The position is for an architect, who would be working extensively for various stages of the project and should also play the managerial role. Isn’t it asking too much for a given role? Well, in Indian companies, there is no real means of Architect. He is just like any other Manager, but doing the technology stuff as well. Anyhow, that’s a different thread of discussion all together, but for the current purpose, let me concentrate on an idle situation, where an Architect is an Architect and manager is manager. The interviewer concentrating on the design guidelines and seeking answers for standard questions. Sometime back I’ve written about the common mistakes that ...
