No hay balas de plata

No hay balas de plata: Lo esencial y lo accidental en la Ingeniería del Software

by Frederick P. Brooks, Jr.

De todos los monstruos que pueblan nuestras pesadillas, ninguno es tan terrorífico como el hombre lobo, porque pasa repentinamente de lo familiar al horror. Por eso, todos buscamos balas de plata que puedan acabar con ellos magicamente.

El familiar proyecto de software, al menos tal como lo ve un gestor no técnico, tiene algo de ese caracter: suele ser inocente y sencillo, pero es capaz de convertirse en un monstruo de plazos incumplidos, objetivos fallados y productos defectuosos.

Flickr CEO asking for money.

Dear friends,

Flickr—the world’s most-beloved, money-losing business—needs your help.

Two years ago, Flickr was losing tens of millions of dollars a year. Our company, SmugMug, stepped in to rescue it from being shut down and to save tens of billions of your precious photos from being erased.

Why? We’ve spent 17 years lovingly building our company into a thriving, family-owned and -operated business that cares deeply about photographers. SmugMug has always been the place for photographers to showcase their photography, and we’ve long admired how Flickr has been
