    Take to twitter and let's see what people come up with. Or answer here, but keep it short, really short.

    As pointed out the goal was to get a short response. Yes I put it out on twitter, but wanted to get more responses. I am especially interested in responses from people who I don't know. People who work in different parts of the industry. My tweet is #SoftwareDevelopmentIs Problem identification, clarification, resolution and remediation. If you think this idea has no merit, feel free to move along. I understand the issues with twitter, but it is an easy way to express the constraint. One of two sentences no more.

      CP's got over 12,000,000 characters, but only 83% of them are nuts*. * That's waaaaaay below the twitter and facebook percentages!

        why ? :confused: (edit) Why? Because I am not certain what your are asking for.

        I'd rather be phishing!

          ...an utterly amazing and essential part of the wonderful modern world of computers and IT in general - except for Twitter; that's crap!

          - I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

            Software development is the process of computer programming, documenting, testing, and bug fixing involved in creating and maintaining applications and frameworks involved in a software release life cycle and resulting in a software product. The term refers to a process of writing and maintaining the source code, but in a broader sense of the term it includes all that is involved between the conception of the desired software through to the final manifestation of the software, ideally in a planned and structured process.[1] Therefore, software development may include research, new development, prototyping, modification, reuse, re-engineering, maintenance, or any other activities that result in software products.[2] Software can be developed for a variety of purposes, the three most common being to meet specific needs of a specific client/business (the case with custom software), to meet a perceived need of some set of potential users (the case with commercial and open source software), or for personal use (e.g. a scientist may write software to automate a mundane task). Embedded software development, that is, the development of embedded software such as used for controlling consumer products, requires the development process to be integrated with the development of the controlled physical product. System software underlies applications and the programming process itself, and is often developed separately. The need for better quality control of the software development process has given rise to the discipline of software engineering, which aims to apply the systematic approach exemplified in the engineering paradigm to the process of software development. There are many approaches to software project management, known as software development life cycle models, methodologies, processes, or models. The waterfall model is a traditional version, contrasted with the more recent innovation of agile software development.

              Just out of interest what's my take away? What was the point? Was it a joke? You are a "Protector" so I am guessing you are on Code Project a great deal. I am wondering what the goal was. This is not me being snarky, I thought about trying to be snarky but I am not good at it. I tend to sound mean when I try to be snarky. Perhaps you were trying to be snarky? Not that you sounded mean. I really have no idea what to make of your post. I feel like I should pay attention cause you have creds. Maybe not.

                  Just going out on a limb here but I suspect Marc was in fact being snarky while trying to express the sentiment that #SoftwareDevelopmentIs way too broad a subject to sum up in 140 characters.

                  There are two types of people in this world: those that pronounce GIF with a soft G, and those who do not deserve to speak words, ever.

                              If you have uncertainties about Marc's posting, just pick the 140 characters of it that you like best, and remember them. ... And try to get the joke, for Heaven's sake!

                                  In my case, you just talk bollocks in the Lounge. In the case of people like Marc, Griff, and JSOP (and others -- you're not unnoticed, but I'm a lazy typist), you publish articles that help others, and help others fix problems that they've been struggling with. The only exclusive cliques I've seen in CP are based on religion, which -- although intolerable --is the same everywhere, and is best ignored. Don't knock guys who are doing so much to actually help their fellow devs. Take a poke at me, instead. All I do is talk bollocks, and I'm always happy to have a barney.

                                    If you have uncertainties about Marc's posting, just pick the 140 characters of it that you like best, and remember them. ... And try to get the joke, for Heaven's sake!

                                      Take to twitter and let's see what people come up with. Or answer here, but keep it short, really short.

                                      Software Development is for people who have a life and imagination. It's not for twitter-heads.

Maxwell You must accept 1 of 2 basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe or we are not alone. Either way, the implications are staggering!-Wernher von Braun

                                        Just out of interest what's my take away? What was the point? Was it a joke? You are a "Protector" so I am guessing you are on Code Project a great deal. I am wondering what the goal was. This is not me being snarky, I thought about trying to be snarky but I am not good at it. I tend to sound mean when I try to be snarky. Perhaps you were trying to be snarky? Not that you sounded mean. I really have no idea what to make of your post. I feel like I should pay attention cause you have creds. Maybe not.

                                        He was joking for gods sake. The use of the word 'twitter' is an invitation for jokes here. That's the take away.

                                          Perhaps it was not funny. I was not upset, just baffled.

                                          i.e. you didn't get the joke. It's the CP Lounge, eh? Look for a joke, before looking for trouble.
