Sir, please step slowly away from the kool aid. And keep your extremities where I can see them.

No Brainers for Development

What should be our Coding Standards? - Google “coding standards” for your chosen programming language, find a set that makes sense to you and then use them.
Should we do iterative development? - No. You should stick your head up an elephant’s arse instead. It has about the same effectiveness as waterfall delivery, but is slightly less unpleasant for the parties involved.
Model-View-Controller or Model-View-Presenter? - seriously, who gives a sh*t? Pick one and get on with it.
.NET or Java? - ditto.
Are we doing too much unit testing? - No.
Do we need a business/systems analyst? - nobody needs a business/systems analyst. They’re like nipples for men - they serve no practical purpose, but they can still be used to hurt you.
Should we adopt a Service-Oriented Architecture? - Sure. Just let the rest of us know when you’ve figured out what the hell that means, okay?
Are we doing too much refactoring? - No.
The guy we want is just outside our budget. What do we do? - Increase your budget. Find a way.
How can we make more time for quality? - Just do it. The extra time will make itself.

“Albert Markovski: The interconnection thing is definitely for real.
Tommy Corn: It is! I didn’t think it wasn’t! It is!
Albert Markovski: I know, I can’t believe it, it’s so fantastic!
Tommy Corn: It’s amazing!
Albert Markovski: I know.
Tommy Corn: But it’s also nothing special.”

Mission Control Moscow: What can you see? (to get the position of the crane Anton is moving)

Anton Shkaplerov: I can see lights of the cities.

Mission Control Moscow: What are you, a philosopher or something?

Anton: What am I supposed to say? I see the crane.
