The tech crew enjoys some breakfast before the morning keynote.
Notes from TheServerSide Java Symposium March 2009
Jon’s a fine fellow, but his talked (to me) seemed mostly to be stating the obvious. I’ll just provide his “Rules to Code By:”
- It’s the Business, Stupid
Not all shiny new toys should be fondled - A fool with a tool is still a fool
- Don’t mistake activity for progress
Hard to get work done when you are always in meetings - Your team should hit a stride
Development should feel cyclical and rhythmic - Be impatient
Don’t tolerate waiting (for long) - Be lazy
Don’t do tedious, mediocre chores over and over - Have fun — or take a break
