			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Toata lumea vorbeste despre <a title="Google Buzz - Go beyond status messages" href="http://www.google.com/buzz" target="_blank">Google Buzz</a>. Un produs<a title="Lawyers (or journalists) with Gmail accounts: Careful with the Google Buzz" href="http://www.scotxblog.com/legal-tech/lawyer-privacy-on-google-buzz/" target="_blank"> anuntat prea devreme</a>, introdus ca raspuns la Twitter si Facebook, si care confirma importanta versiunilor de testare (beta, RC etc&#8230;), fiind primul produs Google <a title=" Google ne da un BUZZ!" href="http://www.linecreation.com/blog/2010/02/11/google-ne-da-un-buzz/" target="_blank">lansat</a> fara versiune beta:</p>
<blockquote><p>[...] what Google viewed as an obvious shortcut stirred up <a title="Critics Say Google Invades Privacy With New Service " href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/13/technology/internet/13google.html" target="_blank">a beehive of  angry critics</a>. Many users bristled at what they considered an invasion  of privacy, and they faulted the company for failing to ask permission  before sharing a person’s Buzz contacts with a broad audience. For the  last three days, Google has faced a firestorm of criticism on blogs and  Web sites, and it has already been forced to alter some features of the  service.</p></blockquote>
<p>Buzz care pierde enorm din lipsa <em>feedback</em>-ului utilizatorilor, <em>violeaza intimitatea</em> si realizeaza prea multe conexiuni si zgomot pentru nimic, relansand intrebarea: <strong>cand e un beta gata?</strong> O mini definitie si un test eficient aici:</p>
<div style="width: 425px; margin: 20px auto;"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="344" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/VYL_Jz3XKjw&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/VYL_Jz3XKjw&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></div>
<p><strong>Update:</strong> Todd Jackson (manager de proiect pentru Gmail si Buzz), dupa <a title="Google Alters Buzz to Tackle Privacy Flaws" href="http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/02/13/google-alters-buzz-to-tackle-privacy-flaws/" target="_blank">valul de critici</a> la adresa generarii <em>cercului</em> de prieteni din Buzz, <a title="A new Buzz start-up experience based on your feedback" href="http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2010/02/new-buzz-start-up-experience-based-on.html" target="_blank">anunta</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>We&#8217;ve heard your feedback loud and clear, and since we launched Google  Buzz four days ago, we&#8217;ve been working around the clock to address the  concerns you&#8217;ve raised. Today, we wanted to let you know about a number  of changes we&#8217;ll be making over the next few days based on all the  feedback we&#8217;ve received.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ivo Jansch, CTO si inginer la <a title="Ibuildings - PHP Web Development and Professional Services by the PHP Experts - ibuildings.co.uk" href="http://www.ibuildings.co.uk/" target="_blank">Ibuildings</a>, afirma constant:</p>
<blockquote><p>PHP is not pretty, but it gets the thing done, and gets it done well.</p></blockquote>
<p>si argumentul central al dezvoltarii in PHP ramane productivitatea &#8211; postul sau de <a title="Productivity in PHP from a fun perspective" href="http://www.ibuildings.co.uk/blog/archives/1585-Productivity-in-PHP-from-a-fun-perspective.html" target="_blank">aici</a> o confirma printr-un experiment (de dragul amuzamentului) efectuat la o <a title="Engineering World 2010" href="http://engineering.sogeti.nl/Home/index.jsp" target="_blank">conferinta</a> a dezvoltatorilor.<span id="more-471"></span></p>
<p>O echipa de programatori PHP, desi intrata mai tarziu in concurs, a rezolvat o problema (solutia unui labirint) intr-un timp scurt si cu un numar de linii de cod redus, concurand cu echipe de programatori Java, .NET, Oracle etc.</p>
<p>Rezultatele sunt de efect:</p>
<table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" width="100%">
<tbody>
<tr>
<th>Limbaj folosit</th>
<th>Timp dezvoltare<br />
(ore)</th>
<th>Linii de cod</th>
<th>Performanta<br />
(secunde)</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Oracle PL/SQL</td>
<td style="text-align: right;">
<pre>4:37</pre>
</td>
<td style="text-align: right;">
<pre>1058</pre>
</td>
<td style="text-align: right;">
<pre>1.9</pre>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>.NET</td>
<td style="text-align: right;">
<pre>3:29</pre>
</td>
<td style="text-align: right;">
<pre>8680</pre>
</td>
<td style="text-align: right;">
<pre>1.2</pre>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>PHP</td>
<td style="text-align: right;">
<pre>1:26</pre>
</td>
<td style="text-align: right;">
<pre>94</pre>
</td>
<td style="text-align: right;">
<pre>7.1</pre>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p>Concluzia <em>nestiintifica</em> suna cam asa: cu PHP obtii rezultate de 2-3 ori mai repede decat in .NET si de vreo 4 ori mai repede decat in Oracle. Cu Java, se pare, nu prea obtii solutii &#8211; intrucat echipa Java nu a terminat aplicatia <img src='http://ganaited.ro/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  Iar, conform <a title="Software Maintenance Implications on Cost and Schedule" href="http://www.buzzle.com/articles/software-maintenance-implications-on-cost-and-schedule.html" target="_blank">Buzzle</a>, solutia .NET ar avea intre 50 si 95 de erori la cele 8600 de linii de cod scrise.</p>
<p>Totusi, din punct de vedere al performantei executiei si al incarcarii serverelor, PHP ramane un limbaj de dezvoltare (interpretat) nepotrivit rezolvarii algoritimilor complecsi care necesita calcule complexe  si tacti de procesor.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Confesiunile celor plecati de bunavoie sau prin disponibilizare de la Microsoft ajung publice prin eforturile lui <a title="Joe Wilcox" href="http://www.betanews.com/joewilcox" target="_blank">Joe Wilcox</a> de la <a title="BetaNews" href="http://www.betanews.com/" target="_blank">BetaNews</a>. Bineinteles, sub protectia anonimatului, dar in limita in care fostii angajati nu s-au intors prin subcontractare sa lucreze tot cu Microsoft. Si, surprinzator, majoritatea sunt fosti angajati care au lucrat minim 8 ani pentru companie. Ideea principala? O firma de <em>pup-in-curisti</em> pierduta in jocuri birocratice.<span id="more-453"></span></p>
<p>Prima confesiune, <a title="Microsoft Confessions: 'Killed over politics'" href="http://www.betanews.com/joewilcox/article/Microsoft-Confessions-Killed-over-politics/1265358761" target="_blank"><strong>distrusi prin politica</strong></a>, vine de la un <em>senior manager</em> care pleaca de la Microsoft dupa aproape 20 de ani si povesteste despre trecerea de la echipe de lucru mici, flexibile si cu tinte precise la echipe prea mari, birocrate si pierdute in jocuri politice interne:</p>
<blockquote><p>When I left, I told Steve [Ballmer] my reasons. Microsoft lost its  competitive edge. Too much politics, too much <abbr title="bullshit">BS</abbr>, too much &#8216;what can I  do to you today, to make myself look better tomorrow.&#8217;</p>
<p>[...]</p>
<p>While I love Steve [Ballmer] to no end, he&#8217;s too removed from what&#8217;s   really happening, and only gets info from the politically motivated ass   kissers that just want to keep their jobs, not do the right thing.</p></blockquote>
<p>A doua confesiune, <a title="Microsoft Confessions: 'Deeply dysfunctional family'" href="http://www.betanews.com/joewilcox/article/Microsoft-Confessions-Deeply-dysfunctional-family/1265414235" target="_blank"><strong>o familie foarte disfunctionala</strong></a>, prezinta experienta unui consultant de service si implementare a produselor Microsoft la companii din <a title="Fortune 100 - Best companies to work for" href="http://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/bestcompanies/full_list/" target="_blank">Fortune 100</a>. De la lungirea brusca si fara sens a cailor ierarhice si dezvoltarea personala in dezavantajul echipei reprezentate, strategistii vizionari din cadrul companiei au fost prinsi in jocuri <em>politice</em> si <em>pup-in-curiste</em> ale managementului si lasati sa plece.</p>
<blockquote><p>Processes became more bureaucratic and individuals were less empowered  to take action. In fact, oftentimes the incentive structure encouraged  individual contributors not to do the right thing, but just to do what  they committed to in their review the year prior. In other words, if you  committed to include Feature A in Windows, and half-way through the  year you realized that was a bad thing for Windows and Microsoft  customers, the incentive structure actively discouraged you from trying  to kill the feature, because then you wouldn&#8217;t have achieved your  commitments.</p>
<p>[...]</p>
<p>The company as a whole seemed more and more focused on chasing  competitors into any business where they might someday present a threat  &#8212; which to me always felt like ego on the part of SteveB [CEO Steve  Ballmer] &#8212;  and seemed to completely lose sight of its core strengths  and where it could deliver the most value to its customers.</p></blockquote>
<p>A treia confesiune, <a title="Microsoft Confessions: 'Poor worker bees'" href="http://www.betanews.com/joewilcox/article/Microsoft-Confessions-Poor-worker-bees/1265514603" target="_blank"><strong>saracele albinute</strong></a>, povesteste despre diviziile cu program prea incarcat din Microsoft in care cei ce nu pot tine ritmul sunt penalizati. Media de lucru era de 80-90 de ore pe saptamana (16-18 ore pe zi)  timp de cateva luni. Cei ce nu erau dispusi sa tina pasul cu acest program deveneau <em>persona non grata</em>, din cauza unui manger cu probleme de performanta si tehnici de <em>guerilla</em> asupra propriilor subordonati.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>The opportunities?</em> [They] can be among the most amazing for  your career that you&#8217;ll ever encounter. This is balanced, however, by  the reality that merit isn&#8217;t always the primary criteria by which  opportunities are given out, and that opportunities that are given in  the blink of an eye can be &#8212; and sometimes are &#8212; taken away in the  blink of an eye for no apparent reason at all.</p>
<p>[...]</p>
<p>Pregnant women ended up on early bedrest from the stress. People slept  at the office in order to use the commute time for more work. For some,  there were weekly all-nighters in the schedule.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Update:</strong> A patra confesiune (si cea mai lunga), <a title="Microsoft Confessions: 'There were a ton of bozos'" href="http://www.betanews.com/joewilcox/article/Microsoft-Confessions-There-were-a-ton-of-bozos/1265604434" target="_blank"><strong>o gramada ce clovni</strong></a>, prezentata de un adevarat veteran Microsoft (<a title="Windows 3.1" href="http://ganaited.ro/blog/2010/01/windows-3-1/">din era MS-DOS si Windows 3.1</a>), arata inceputurile, desfasurarile, punctele culminante, hatisurile, personajele negative si pozitive, si sfarsitul unei activitati incepute din &#8216;90.</p>
<blockquote><p>There were a ton of bozos. Arrogant bozos. Not to suggest that I&#8217;m some sort of genius. Far from it. But the intellectual rigor demonstrated by much of the management &#8212; and strategy &#8212; was sadly lacking. In some ways it was funny, but mostly depressing.</p>
<p>[...]</p>
<p>There&#8217;s little or no interest in sustainability. No recognition for doing a job consistently well over time. No incentive for effective cross-team work (unless you can get another team to do work you can take credit for).</p></blockquote>
<p>In continuare, Joe continua sa colecteze sub linistea anonimatului negarantat (datorita continutului detaliat) povesti din <a title="Microsoft: Profit trimestrial in crestere cu 60%" href="http://www.wall-street.ro/articol/IT-C-Tehnologie/79275/Microsoft-Profit-trimestrial-in-crestere-cu-60.html" target="_blank">Microsoft</a>, cu numitor comun <a title="Steve Ballmer" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Ballmer" target="_blank">Steve Ballmer</a>. Si cum am conchis mai demult la bere: capitalismul se compune din multi-microcomunisme.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Conform <a title="SD Times: Software Development News" href="http://www.sdtimes.com/" target="_blank">SD Times</a>, nucleul echipei PHP a fost adus in campusul Facebook. Motivul se pare ca este o versiune de PHP modificata si optimizata de echipa Facebook. Practic, <a title="ahandy Facebook rewrites PHP runtime" href="http://www.sdtimes.com/blog/post/2010/01/30/Facebook-rewrites-PHP-runtime.aspx" target="_blank">Facebook a rescris modulele <em>run-time</em> ale PHP de la zero</a> iar modulele optimizate vor fi disponibile <em>opensource</em>. Zvonul spune ca toata procedura de rescriere si optimizare a PHP pentru a corespunde nevoilor de viteza ale Facebook a fost &#8220;opera&#8221; unui singur om angajat in urma cu vreo 2 ani.</p>
<p>Si peste toate astea, cireasa de pe tort e lansarea <a title="HipHop for PHP" href="http://www.facebook.com/notes.php?id=9445547199" target="_blank">HipHop for PHP</a> &#8211; un transformator de cod PHP in cod C++ si compilat in executabil. In sfarsit, PHP poate fi utilizat si pentru scrierea de aplicatii server rapide si optimizate, si va trece, datorita FaceBook, de la nivelul de  limbaj interpretat la cod compilat.</p>
<blockquote><p>HipHop for PHP isn&#8217;t technically a compiler itself.  Rather it is a  source code transformer.  HipHop programmatically transforms your PHP  source code into highly optimized C++ and then uses g++ to compile it.</p></blockquote>

<blockquote><p><strong><em>Medium  Nina Petre</em></strong><em>: Suntem în 24 iulie 2009. Voi chema spiritul lui <strong>Michael  Jackson</strong>.</em></p>
<p><strong>Spiritul lui  Michael Jackson</strong>: &#8211; Sărut mâna, doamnă. Ce mă bucur că m-aţi chemat! Chiar dacă nu sunteţi acelaşi neam cu mine şi trăiţi atât de departe, vă respect pentru gestul dumneavoastră. Mulţi au încercat să mă cheme, dar n-au reuşit să redea cuvintele şi gândurile mele. Eu încă mai stau pe lângă mormânt; plâng, îmi plâng soarta abia pierdută. Sunt foarte îndurerat. Mai aveam încă mulţi ani de trăit dacă nu mă păcăleau blestemaţii aceia de doctori.

<blockquote><p><strong><em>Medium  Nina Petre</em></strong><em>: &#8211; Michael, care a fost cauza reală a morţii tale?</em></p>
<p><strong>Spiritul lui  Michael Jackson</strong>: &#8211; Vai, doamna mea, câte aş avea de povestit, dar acum, că nu mai sunt om în viaţă, nu mai vreau să acuz pe nimeni. Sper în corectitudinea justiţiei americane, care va face lumină în această nebuloasă a sfârşitului meu. Mulţi au fost vinovaţi de moartea mea, mult prea mulţi ca să îi enumăr pe toţi. Eu am fost un om discret şi vreau ca şi acum să fiu un spirit cât se poate de binevoitor, să nu lovesc în oameni, cum nu am făcut nici în timpul vieţii mele [<a title="Mesaj de la spiritul lui MICHAEL JACKSON" href="http://www.spiritus.ro/SPIRITISM/mesaj_24.07.2009-michael_jackson.htm" target="_blank">toata sedinta...</a>]</p></blockquote>
