Architects and engineers alike love increasing the complexity of systems just to use buzzword products.

I understand where you coming from. However, would the patient know if machine is functioning correctly if it is silent? What happens if it's not plugged in correctly?
Re:If you're not writing tests first you're missing out on Friday August 17, 2018 @07:05AM (#17781852)
Well it's not easy writing tests first when working on a legacy system.

In my instance, we've created integration tests. And business tests to make sure our business rules work as it should be.

I'm a Toastmasters member, and one of the things I learned with presenting technical talks is that you should know your audience. If your audience understands the tech, then speak at a technical level, otherwise speak at a very high level

I'm going to disagree with you. I live in a country where the local politics always floods the news. There is always a corruption charge against the president or some other politician. I find it very repetitive. Nothing is new.

I'm a technology enthusiast, so I would rather read articles on that.

I also feel much happier when not informed about the politics about my country.

Prisoners should be measured. The same way that some companies have performance measurements for its employees, prisons should have behavioural measurement for the prisoners. If the behaviour improves based on a certain grade, then the prisoners get rewarded, otherwise they get punished

I think people forget that the Oracle database is just one of the many products that oracle has. I think Weblogic is the best application server around.
