Después de trabajar con Alex, me gustaría hacer una recopilación de algunos manteas y frases que pueden reflejar un resumen de sus filosofía.

1) El sentido común no es un práctica común (Common sense y not common practice).
2) Regla de Xig y el Viejo para contratación de personal. "De cada 25 personas que entrevistas sólo se detecta a 1 que vale la pena enseñarle".
3) Regla de el Viejo para contratar a alguien. "Debe hacer las cosas mejor que tú".
4) Regla de el Viejo para socios. "Para tener un socio, el socio debe de aportar algo que tu no puedes aportar".
5) "Al software hay que tenerle respecto"...
6) Al primero siempre se le pierde...
7) A quien admiro. ¿Porque puedo admirarme yo mismo?
8) El tratar de resolver un problema permite comprenderlo.

Les dejo esas e iré agregando algunas más...

Gracias a el Viejo por este artículo...

ABSTRACT

For software organizations needing ISO 9001 certification, it is important to establish a software process life cycle that can manage the requirements imposed by this certification standard. This paper presents an analysis of extreme programming (XP) from the ISO 9001 and ISO 90003 perspectives. The focus is to extract the requirements related to the ISO product realization process and to determine the strengths and weaknesses of XP in handling those requirements.

"This is a report on what we've learned during the first four semesters of teaching a new subject at MIT: Software Engineering of Innovative Internet Applications. We present new ideas in teaching computer science students to build the kinds of applications demanded by society. We discuss methods for involving alumni as teaching assistants and coaches. We argue for the method of helping students achieve fluency by assigning five complete applications for construction in a semester rather than the traditional single problem in a software engineering semester".

• "Art challenges technology, technology inspires the art".
