I’m sitting in the Denver airport right now contemplating life (and why I have been travelling for almost 24 hours now trying to fly across three states), and thought I would pass this along:
101 Ways to Know Your Software Project is Doomed
Some of my favorites:
2. You start hiring consultants so they can take the blame
9. You start considering a new job so you don’t have to maintain the application you are building
15. You are friends with the janitor
53. The sales team decreased your estimates because they believe you can work faster
80. The client will only talk about the requirements after they receive a fixed estimation
100. You have been 90% complete 90% of the time
Enjoy!
