I take it you are in the company you want checked?
If so why cant you do this yourself? There are various metrics for code and processes, and hence the employees abilities at all levels. CRM, ISO etc

heh. Yup, I'm sick to death of seeing the same cr@ppy "horizontal slide" site. It's nice to learn I'm not alone.

I manage a bunch of websites (volunteer work) and for a district level organization. It's totally hand crafted (html/css/php/javascript). I was informed, somewhat politely, that it looks "old fashioned" and I should use a modern look, like those in WordPress.
So my site would should look like everyone else's. That's not going to happen.
It must be a generational thing.

I was Shanghaied into governing a chunk of Geocities, back in the day. I spent far too much of my time explaining to far too many people that a black background, unstoppable boring music, and a stupid, sparkley cursor didn't in any way make up for a lack of content.

I think Bootstrap has a place for a run-of-the-mill sites, but still... I found that funny because it's soooooo true.

Not sure how you can keep a straight face with making BMBFA. I mean ya know, the meetings must be interesting.

It is good to focus on content like every f***ing book ever looks the same.
For artistic sites and promoting the product and things like that they can use the unique design.

Two things:
1. From the point of view of the end user the same look and feel is good, so Bootstrap has it place...
2. We use Bootstrap - as idea - in our new project, but you can not tell, just by looking at it. So even with Bootstrap, you can create different sites - if you are really a designer and not a 'so called'...

Great article!
Uncle Bob said: It's time to simply get down to work.
We need to choose a language, or two, or three. A small set of simple frameworks. Build up our tools. Solidify our processes.
Exactly. I just had this discussion with someone, explaining that the Real Agile (not the one that exists differently in every single mind acquainted with it) actually works. But, I'm sure I'll get all kinds of replies to that.
Do the work!

Finally someone who says it. We are not making progress, we are going in circles mighty fast.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."
If software development were a circus, we would all be the clowns.

Maybe a bit.
Are we any better off than the Assembly language programmers?
Maybe another shade.
I understand your meaning though.
Guess what I'm doing right at this moment? I'm writing good old assembly code. Visual Studio as code editor, antique subroutines I wrote many years ago, a simple makefile, an almost 40 year old debugger and an emulator for the elderly target computer.
Much too comfortable. I should go over to the old computer and use the hex keyboard.

That really is very cool.
I'm writing AVR-C (on the GNU C Toolchain) for embedded development myself.
When it's compiled down to the hex file I often go and look at the straight hex, because I am weird.
Im finishing my article for codeproject which uses an ATMega328, bluetooth and a relay module and it has straight C code in it for the embedded. Lots of fun.

The article is posted to CP: Never Buy A Garage Door Remote Again: Open Your Door With Your Android Phone (via Bluetooth)[^]

Have some random code from the listing after assembling the sources, then:
48D : EC DSP_ShiftExit: SEX RC ; store the shifted bytes in the video buffer
48E : 8B GLO RB
48F : F3 XOR
490 : 5C STR RC
491 : 1C INC RC
492 : 9B GHI RB
493 : F3 XOR
494 : 5C STR RC
495 : E2 SEX R2
496 : 8C GLO RC ; advance the video buffer pointer
497 : FC 07 ADI 07H
499 : AC PLO RC
49A : 9C GHI RC
49B : 7C 00 ADCI 00H
49D : BC PHI RC
49E : 30 6E BR DSP_ByteLoop
4A0 : 12 DSP_Exit INC R2
4A1 : D5 SEP R5
This kind of stuff never changes. Such old computers are very much like the modern microcontroller kits. Everything comes back sooner or later and it's actually quite important to learn what you can do with a few bytes of machine code, un restricted by conventions, operating systems or standards.
