Software is hard to keep up with. It doesn't help that the discipline is, in many ways, outdated

.3 is the firm’s first mass-produced all-electric car—and the first step in the German carmaker’s attempts to reinvent itself for an electrified world. That makes it perhaps the most important model since the original Golf, launched in 1976. The.3 is also late. Mechanically, the car is hunky-dory. But some software widgets that are a big selling point these days—rumoured to include smartphone connectivity and augmented-reality parking assistance—may be missing at first, only to be added later.

The inherent difficulty of programming is made worse by the shortcomings of software engineering as a profession. These are laid out in a book, “The Problem With Software: Why Smart Engineers Write Bad Code”. The author, Adam Barr, spent 20 years as a developer for Microsoft, a software giant. Many coders, he notes, are at least partly self-taught. That leads to bad habits, which software-engineering courses fail to correct.

Like: recalcitrant IT! Great! Amnesia.

I have not read the article. I can't climb the paywall. I would guess ... failure to INVEST money and time into the design. To quote my professor 20+ years ago: 'If you get software architecture right, you have a chance of success. Get it wrong and you're guaranteed to fail.'

nice Merry Christmas))

IT isn't a 'thing' (software or hardware). Business or work culture is defined in part by its 'IT' stuff. Failure to think about the entire system is lunacy.

IT departments packed with incompetent Indians

I will tell you why IT is often a firm's weak spot: accountants don't get tech. If They don't see cash flow, they don't get the urgency, after all 'if it ain't broken don't fix it.' Problem is, IT is ever evolving, you MUST update it monthly. Yes, monthly... or save and pay more

Outsourcing IT is a fool’s errand. IT needs to be kept in-house. Any company wishing to succeed also needs to be a tech company.

BennieMols This is not a problem if companies are willing to invest.

Gotta read Carr's Does IT Matter.

Also, most companies prefer to listen to software salespeople who will lie to them to sell second-rate solutions to hit their bonus targets and are unwilling to invest time and money to develop, test and implement robust systems with the right capacity.

I spent most of my working life in IT, ending as a manager if teams of technicians across Europe providing services to major customers. Many companies don't want to spend much money on IT so they outsource to the cheapest service providers and get rubbish service.

*company is impossibly huge, dominating multiple industries and covering every continent* 'why can't IT magically make the infrastructure work'

thank you very much for your work

For instance they might leave a period off the end of the sentence.

That number should be higher

Ok. Now do journalists

And most of them occur in the comment text!

Don't post if you can't even get the words right. Grammar is everything

An MIS graduate wrote this.

My errors don't make it past the evil gates of the linter. Perhaps they mean bugs ?

someone had to:

Besides that’s why there are CyberSecurity professionals to find and report these errors

Sure blame the programmers I’d love to see you do better for 1000 lines of code that’s not a bad accuracy rate

bgiuffra Millennials discover mistakes when you write non-stop

Time to get the AI to write the code!

There may come a time in our lives where we find ourselves very attached to a mentor.

That's why we instill an altitude of Testing. Still though ...

It's disappointing some progammers can't even be bothered to make a full error per 1,000 lines. If you're going to fail, fail big.

Well, still way better than the economists 😀 I mean, the people, not the magazine.

Poor testing always make poor software. But exist the moment that you really know that your program work well? There are hardware and people that can make a soft crash.

Life everywhere is a perpetual race! Lag behind & everything is in mess! RealisticPoetry

There we go

Commercial software currently has a crude architecture because of core incompetence within the industry. Corporate arrogance has precluded improvement.

My nose hurts from walking into a wall

Edition books

We’re dealing with an ever more complex world and so human-developed software systems—and they have always had this issue—will continue to be imperfect

Well, it all boils down to how it is teached, what techs are favored for financial reasons instead if tech soundness and how projects are managed. Other than that, IT is doing fine 🤭
