Lone Star Ruby Conference 2010 Real Software Engineering by Glenn Vanderburg
Confreaks
Glenn Vanderburg argues at Lone Star Ruby Conference 2010 that university-style software engineering does not work, and asks what real software engineering would look like. He revisits the waterfall model and what engineering means in other fields.
HN recommends it for changing minds about whether programmers can be called engineers, and for its take on how waterfall was misread.
