slovo | definícia |
gang bang (foldoc) | gang bang
The use of large numbers of loosely coupled programmers in an
attempt to wedge a great many features into a product in a
short time. Though there have been memorable gang bangs
(e.g. that over-the-weekend assembler port mentioned in
Steven Levy's "Hackers"), most are perpetrated by large
companies trying to meet deadlines; the inevitable result is
enormous buggy masses of code entirely lacking in
orthogonality. When market-driven managers make a list of
all the features the competition has and assign one programmer
to implement each, the probability of maintaining a coherent
(or even functional) design goes infinitesimal. See also
firefighting, Mongolian Hordes technique, Conway's Law.

n.
The use of large numbers of loosely coupled programmers in an attempt to
wedge a great many features into a product in a short time. Though there
have been memorable gang bangs (e.g., that over-the-weekend assembler port
mentioned in Steven Levy's Hackers), and large numbers of loosely-coupled
programmers operating in bazaar mode can do very useful work when they're
not on a deadline, most are perpetrated by large companies trying to meet
unrealistic deadlines; the inevitable result is enormous buggy masses of
code entirely lacking in orthogonality. When market-driven managers make
a list of all the features the competition has and assign one programmer to
implement each, the probability of maintaining a coherent (or even
functional) design goes to epsilon. See also firefighting, {Mongolian
Hordes technique}, Conway's Law.
