Does it ever get old stifling peoples creativity?
I can think of lots of reasons I would like this.
I have a server at home.
I would like to edit something at home, from work. That's one trivial example.
Do you ever get tired of shooting down somebody else's idea just because it doesn't immediately fit whatever is in your head RIGHT NOW?
Give it a second. Stop to think before you call somebody else crap and maybe just bite your F'ing tongue.
Wow, did you go to my school?
We did VAX/VMS until we declared and then DEC UNIX in higher level classes.
In either case, the professor taught concepts and, being a smaller school, we figured out the tool on our own, with no TA support but with the help of a required text book "Unix For The Impatient".
I spent personal time figuring out Slackware, etc. along with friends, for fun.
Now that I'm in industry, the same applies; learn the tool on your own, there's no time or money available for you to have support on something that you should be smart enough to figure out yourself. It's the concept that matters, now buckle down and git to work.
NASA recommends (almost requires) the COCOMO model.

I think the COCOMO model is used by the Software Engineering Institute (SEI) at Carnegie Mellon University as part of the Capability Maturity Model (CMM).
As said in MANY of these posts, proper specifications/requirements are needed to estimate anything.
My company uses it exclusively and we have been proven quite accurate over the course of many projects.

Really? Face it?
What would it take for you to consider the mountains of solid scientific results? Seriously.

I guess NASA is just a bunch of kooks.
