Hey all, Can anyone cite an example of a high-load server product - wherein a single node has to handle tens of thousands of requests per second - in which ...
... The current server based project I'm on is designed to handle many concurrent requests though not in the thousands per second (I like to see what our...
Mel, Everything you said is true and none of it helps me. I'm trying to deal with people who are, essentially, religious fundamentalists. They don't want to...

"Can you try set based design, building both the 'fundamentalist' version and a TDD/DP version?" Nope. There is, literally, a moratorium on quality. "It...
It's a matter of time. I'm not expecting it to happen overnight - especially not in this organization. I view it to be more like evolution than what we call...
These people are too young to get away with it, though. I think if you're over fifty, you can "ride it out." I honestly don't believe that people in their...
Hi, As Scott Bain posts regularly here I thought a mention (and plug) about his new book, Emergent Design, would be fitting. I have just read this and it...
I'm doing a webinar on June 10th that we've found very helpful to Agile/Scrum practitioners - particularly those trying to convince testers and developers to...
I am presenting a seminar this Thursday night (6:30-8pm) in our Bellevue offices. While geared toward Agile projects, this is really about how to avoid over...
Thought I'd have some fun - here's an earlier blog of mine: A couple of years ago I decided, hey, I'm CEO of a successful company, co-author of a successful...
Guernsey's Corollary: The probability of a new duplicate being introduced at any given point in time is greater with N + 1 instances than with N. Max Guernsey,...
Seems quiet. .yeah. a little too quiet. Seriously though: What about making the sprint/iteration goal a test? Max Guernsey, III Managing Member, Hexagon...
I dunno. Thinking about it. -S- From: leanprogramming@yahoogroups.com [mailto:leanprogramming@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Max Guernsey, III Sent: Wednesday,...
On a related note, I've heard "there are three numbers in programming: zero, one, and infinity." Get ready to groan. The same is true of the number of points...
Hi, On the first page of chapter 2 Bloch states that his item 1 is not the Factory Method pattern described in gang four book. You can read it here ...

I agree with Mel's response (below), and with Josh's original point, but will state it a little differently. Seeing things from multiple angles sometimes adds...
I will answer this question briefly hereĀ as I am not sure if this is the appropriate forum for discussing a Design Patterns question in a Lean Programming...
On Wed, Jul 16, 2008 at 8:30 AM, Bartels, Mel ... Are they strongly identiy coupled? If I had something like public interface Foo class FooOne implements Foo ...
... public class Factory{ public static Foo Create( int choice ) {....} } This is static factory method. No? And it's as loosely coupled as you can design for....
I just got this question off-line but thought I would answer it here. Alan, I just read you presentation material "Design Patterns Explained: From Theory To...
Ok I think the heart of my confusion has been thinking that the Gof pattern was the general notion of a factory, As Scott said, "anything that produces an...
Here are some more: "Community" "Collection" "Concentration" seems to be the best choice, as it is the only antonym of "dispersion" that I could find and...
I'll take a run at trying to clear up the point here... at least, in the way I look at it. In OO design, one thing we try to do is to avoid coupling to...
This is kind of askew the main line of the conversation, but I'll say it anyway. Scott nailed one of the reasons why encapsulated constructors are so important...
