    'So I said, narrow the focus. Your "use case" should be, there's a 22 year old college student living in the dorms. How will this software get him laid?'

    Sadly, I don't think even he had enough money for that.

  3. Nothing to be scared of! on Security Fears Over Google Accelerator · · Score: 0

    Why worry? Google is safe. It's not like they can search my desktop, view my house from miles away and see my surfing habits.. oh wait..

    Well at least they can't see everything I've posted on usenet for the past 10 years.

    And thankfully they can't find images of me posted on the web either. hmm.

    well.. on the bright side at least if I ever die they can reconstruct me.

  4. One HUGE necissary component on What Makes a Good Design Document? · · Score: 0

    One thing that I've found that is necissary but often hard to do is getting the end-users or functionality drivers to sign-off on the document.

    This gets people to agree to a certain set of design requirements, helps reduce scope creep or at least track the baseline, and it scares people into reading more of the document when their butts are on the line. It also helps get user buy in and especially when third parties are involved, a negotiation point.

    At my workplace, a document isn't considered complete until sign-off has been achieved. You can design all you want to but if you can't get everyone involved to agree you're in for a rough ride.
