Trip in Cessna from Montego Bay to Treasure Beach Jamaica

Its more Agile than Agile, its more Lean than Lean Startup, its more Extreme than Extreme programming.  It’s the hottest new software development methodology:  Its called “Programming, Motherfucker”.  I’ll shorten it to PMF so I don’t have to type that much.

But the best part is that it comes with a Management Theory as well, called:  Management, Asshole

To do Management, Asshole, you just do this:

1. Find out what the customers want by asking them.
2. Get what the Programming Motherfuckers need to get shit done.
3. Tell the Programming Motherfuckers when their shit is not good enough to sell.

 

I don’t know who Zed Shaw is, but I guess I should, and I will look into that when I  am not too busy doing Management, Asshole, or otherwise I’m probably Programming, MF.

This Is the SXSWi I wanted to see.

After several architecture and vision meetings for FOCUS+ , my medical information – collaborative filtering startup that # FAILED, the dev team were all in agreement that we were building a database with a frontend. Which reminds me if what the PR firm that wouldn’t let me hire them told me I should say I specialize in (“Data”) which makes me think that saying “I specialize in Data is like saying I specialize in Breathing.”.

I’m at the Big Data party at SXSWi.

Though my wife ( interior designer) may disagree.
