    It really forced me to think the entire design through before I wrote the first line of code. That seems to be something lost in...

    Capt. Sigerson (5/16/2012)


    Lisa, how about expanding your thoughts on the two types into a larger article?

    Well, as all of us oldsters probably know, the concept isn't original with me. ...

    I just hope they don't make a movie with Meryl Streep playing a carpenter, or I'll get even more confused.

    <rofl> Now that you mention it, there *is* something expert...

  • RE: Is Software Engineering Dead?

    Jeff, Craig, you've misread. I quoted Steve accurately and, in his response, he shows that he understands the distinction between "job" and "work". I'm sure you do, too.

    Yes....

    [..]

    I think I wrote the "same job", not the "same work". I agree with much of what you've said, though.

    Lisa, I did not make a bad analogy. The fact that you can't understand that really surprises me. I would think a software developer would have better analytical thinking...

    You are completely going off on a tangent. Please stay on topic. I was not discussing how Hollywood is treating actresses as they age. I was merely showing that...

    I thought the parallel with Mrs. Streep from levynissim was pretty good. We don't think that experienced people in many industries are worse than younger...

    Can you imagine someone saying that Meryl Streep is a bad actress because if she were a good actress she would no longer be acting at this stage of...

    Rod at work (4/11/2012)

    GPO (4/11/2012)

    Um, my blog (http://spacefold.com/lisa) has, at current count, 63 entries in the...

  • RE: How to Name Sheets in Exported Excel Workbooks with SSRS 2008 R2

    You're welcome Stan.

    While I'm at it, anything (whether the R2 feature or any other technique) that has to deal with Excel tab names dynamically also should deal with...
