All this reminds me of the whole discussion on mappers versus packers (partucularly in Chapter 1). It's difficult for non-software-development people to understand the process of development -- to them, it sometimes looks like we're just goofing off and if they were just able to get us to apply ourselves we'd be that much more productive.

One of the problems is that code isn't an easy product to create metrics for. Sure, there's quantity, and sure, there's output (does it do what it's supposed to?), but I think non-development people always have the suspicion that it could always do more and that it's the lazy developer's fault it doesn't.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
