Should you keep a copy of all the code you write? What if you are not in a software company i.e. sell the software you write for a living? Perhaps just internal software you write to improve business workflow? Does it make a difference? |

How do I know if I am using Scrum methodologies? Of course I don't really mean to confuse him, I just want to be able to tell him that my methodology is a formally documented, tried and proven one. That he should trust that this approach will work. But after reading many articles, i felt as if the idea of Agility is mostly in "spirit". The actual execution can vary depending on setups. So I am asking what else do I need to do to call myself agile. |

How do I know if I am using Scrum methodologies? My ongoing plan for porting to C# is using VSTO excel addin as a stepping stone. This way i get new features to work in excel, at the same time, I get to resuse the .NET dlls in the future if a C# winforms version is feasible. |

How do I know if I am using Scrum methodologies? If the management doesn't know that "Agility" is a formal methodology in the first place then how can there be scrum meetings at all. Furthermore, I only have myself to meet up. The bigger picture is up to his interpretation, mostly, he thinks excel is a "cheap" software and we should have a "proper" winforms app with sophisticated DB backend supporting offline/online access etc. I do keep a changelog but nobody is interested to read. |

Do you perfect your code as you go or FINISH the product first, improve structure later Sometimes it's not adding features, but how something done 3 week ago could have been done in a better way. In that case, should we go back and make the change and delay the rest or just leave it in its current state/mess. I find it hard to decide since the benefits cannot be measured immediately. |

OOP private method parameters coding style convenience is the whole point, during development stage. I know member variables can be accessed directly, otherwise I wouldn't have asked this question. Your comments hint that you wouldn't do this even out of convenience, so could you share why so? Thanks. |

What's the difference between working at a software company and a company whose focus is in another field? "They'll want it to work, and work now, and that'll be good enough" -- that is not true for me. The management thinks they know better when they are not and they have no clue about the complexity/approperiateness of the software features they demand (e.g. single-mighty-integrate-all-plus-CAD in C#). Being completely clueless about development methodologies, they sit around the meeting table imagining unrealistic deadlines. Definitely challenging =) |

When and how a programmer should start own business? i think the minimum viable income should also include the cost of running the venture. |

Best Practices: Database app programming patterns wow... thanks everyone for the inputs (including all answerers and commenters). should've asked this question earlier. I haven't check what is ORM, and i can't understand all your tech-talk right now, so i think i will be learning a lot this weekend. |
