Is the above really what you observe in 'daily life', because as I told you
before, I would love to work on stuff, but without any serious 'we are ready
to get people in to do real work and end with something that they can
actually use', I feel quite stock.
Geesh! Everyone wants focus, pragmatism and real stuff and so on.
No one wants just to toy around. Its always "the others" toying around..
Good intentions aren't the problem
Easy now! :-)
Are you suggesting we need some "perception management"?
(I'm not protesting, for what it's worth)
For example: I'm now for weeks thinking about coding a simple
videosynchronisation program, because none of the programs I work with to do
my video editing is able to give me the ability to do frame synchronisation
in a way that is easy. Indeed it is only an afternoon work...
Nice example.
I don't hesitate to believe you that you'll be able to code up something
in an afternoon. That's what we call a "prototype"
Then you'll experiment a bit with it and find yourself several days long
nailing bugs or fighting against some buggy driver or library.
Hm, so if prototyping is like having sex,
then developing is like having children?
Considering the declining birth rates, that mental image worries me.
I think we DO need some perception management. (At least I do ...)
Don't get me wrong; I think you are right.
