Software Architecture - is an extremely nebulous term in the context of software. Everyone agrees that it's important, but nobody really agrees on what it is. This site is a useful resource, though. http://www.bredemeyer.com/ |

| | Extreme Programming - is a recent fad methodology, and I've pretty much hated the various programming fads that preceded it (TQM, ISO9000, CMM, etc). XP has some very good features, though, some of which I've incorporated into my day-to-day work. One is a strong belief in unit testing, which has definitely paid off for me. Another is working closely with the customer and setting very small, visible goals that you can easily track. Worth an hour or two at their web site: http://www.extremeprogramming.org/
How To Ask Questions The Smart Way - Eric Raymond has written many interesting papers about programming in general, and especially Open Source. This one is great - it explains how someone can ask questions of programmers in a way that's most likely to generate a successful response. If you're a user then you should read it; if you're a programmer then you'll probably find it handy to point people to: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html |
