Convinced She’s Write

Step 4: run really, really, really fast

February 21st, 2005

Quoted from Katie Lucas’s discussion of software methodologies: (Who’s Katie Lucas? I dunno, but she was referenced on Joel On Software)

And at the core of RUP is a small area where you have to use OO design
talents…. if you don’t have them, it’s like having a methodology for
running the 100m.

“Step 1: write about running really fast. Step 2: Go and draw a plan
of the racetrack. Step 3: go and buy really tight lycra shorts. Step
4: run really, really, really fast. Step 5: cross line first”

Ahhhhh… the step I missed is the “go and buy really tight lycra shorts”.
