Examining How We Develop Software

What I am starting is a mental exercise exploring how my view on software development is changing. Since this is a basically a brain dump, treat it as such. Feel free to comment on what I say… offer advice and opinions. Maybe there is something you can sympathize with.

What has started me thinking along these lines has been my recent readings of The Toyota Way and my re-reading of The Goal.

The Toyota Way

Both readings have me re-examining my career and software development. Asking questions like, Are we focused on the right things?

  • Jaded .Net
  • The Goal
  • Estimating the Impossible
