I hope you are never involved in a not at fault accident.

You are giving horrible advice.

When someone is butthurt, you say 'I'm sorry you're butthurt...'

I've known a few CS people that don't code/never coded. They are far from the brightest. I'd go so far as to say the dimmest.

They are the best bullshitters though, and that counts for a lot.

The point is if he/she truly owned the product they would be FUBAR.

In the real world deck chairs are rearranged often enough that the failing project usually lands in someone else's lap.

If the deck chair rearranging stopped their behavior would change (or they would be made examples of so the behavior of others would change).

All truth is socially constructed, so the real fools are the one who think data could contradict TRUTH. /sarc

The fact is that those that believe facts are socially constructed have a bad case of 'Science Envy', hence they phrase their religious dogma with sciencish terms. They deserve to be kicked square in the crotch and ignored.

They should also not be allowed anywhere near hard science. Look at the mess they've made of the 'social sciences'.

That product owner also gets a steaming pile of code. So it doesn't exactly work out for him/her.

Competent CS is a superset of coder. Being CS and not knowing how to code is like being a lawyer and not knowing how to lie.

What year is this?

Why would you hire a bricklayer to glue fake bricks to the front of your house?

We traded a significant fraction of the power in North America, Western Europe and Australia on an Access database that shelled to a FORTRAN simulation engine for forecasts...

Top that horror story.

To web enable it. I showed them how to call 'new Access.application("shitstorm.mdb")' from ASP. I will go to hell for that.

I guess I just topped my own horror story.

Former shysters can hold any public office they want. All they have to do is give up their license to practice law forever.

Otherwise they will continue to build a system designed primarily to enrich fucking lawyers.

Someone with mod points doesn't understand Boole's algebra.

You don't know the difference between an internet connection and redundant leased lines, yet felt compelled to comment?

I saw some Peugeot badged Z cars last time I was in Europe.

WTF is anybody interested in computers doing at a liberal arts school? Identify the fundamental mistake.

If you understand Boole's algebra you not only understand netmasks, but why they are that way.
