Black and White Thoughts

Today i receive an email from the internal mailing list of the company that i work for one of the biggest telecommunication corporation around the world.

It’s says that the applications and servers are the lifeblood of the company’s business, if that so why most of our software is so bloated and poorly designed?

I know that this is so, because there is not structure for self improvement inside and a lot of employees just wait for the companies to instruct them. That’s really a shame, but is the true for most people working in IT this days.

So, please God of the IT mailing list, “which i know is another poorly written script”, stop sending us this type of hipocracy in an email form.

History is what people don’t study this days and i think is the best way to make predictions about the future. We tend to repeat our mistakes over and over  just because we tend to forget what happen in the past, without noticing that we are losing our own perception of the future.

Who controls the past controls the future: who controls the present controls the past. -George Orwel

I noticed a behavior from a friend, she likes to read about the author past while reading one of his/her novels/poems (My friend is into Literature).  The best way to learn about the author intention on any subject is locating our selfs in the exact place the author was and that we can just do it through his/her history. I thought that probably i can learn new things about what’s happening now in computer science if i do the same with good programmers. Maybe even do my own predictions for the future :). I’m planning to take at least 10 to 20 minutes of my day to read an article of any good craftsman in computer sciences. Probably i will not get wisdom right away from that activity but i know that i will get inspiration.
