In general I agree with Rajesh, that we'd need a lot more information to make an intelligent answer; but CMM is a red flag. Assuming they're doing it for real you're looking at a lot of process in the way of writing code. And if they're only faking it for the auditor you need to wonder what other forms of smoke they're trying to blow up your *ahem*.

You've given us little more than job titles; which is nowhere near enough enough information to evaluate which job is the better option.

Agree Dan - CMM is a red flag for me too. I remember when CMM was all that. Shooting for CMM 5 was *the* goal. Have a friend join a CMM 3 striving for level 4. He fixed one bug in 3 months... He gave up and quit.

Yikes! I'm wondering if your friend's former employer either had a much more bloated definition of what CMM3 was; or had already implemented a huge amount of lvl4 process cement. In my case, lvl3 only meant spending 2/3rds to 3/4ths of our time doing documentation instead of coding; and I'd split the docs roughly 50/50 between useful and busywork: The detailed test procedures mostly being in the first category.
The reqspec being 50/50 in nailing down what the customer wanted/needed but being in an overly verbose and tedious to maintain format. The design spec however fell into the mostly useless category; about 10-20% would have been worthwhile if treated as a non-maintained write only planning doc, the remainder is nothing more than a crappy duplication of what's much easier to see from within visual studio/the app itself and too down in the weeds to be of benefit to anyone who isn't a dev anyway.

Entirely possible. But what I have noticed is that people who DON'T WRITE THE CODE get all excited and twitter-pated about the process, enhancing the process and improving the process. His situation was a little extreme - the process people were in complete control, and said process stated he could not work on anything else until his current change was released into the system....
ugh

Dare I ask what the process said he was supposed to be doing while they were approving his changefarting around uselessly?

bingo! He was climbing walls.
He's in a much better position now.

Not surprising since the people that don't write the code are often the ones that are using the code, or explaining why promised features are not there, or explaining why the delivery is late and vastly over budget, etc, etc, etc.
Naturally those are topics that those only concerned with writing code, by definition, don't consider important.

There are studies that show that effective process control (methodology does not seem to matter) improve all aspects of software development. And one possible result of that for developers can be higher morale as they are more likely to deliver on time, have fewer bugs and less likely to be overworked.
Dan Neely wrote: And if they're only faking it for the auditor
Now of course if you have only ever experienced that sort of process control, which isn't effective, then you are unlikely to see any benefits. That however wouldn't be unusual since most process control is ineffective.

Web Essentials[^] in VS2013 has filed a void in my life I didn't even know existed.
Actually it really just allows me to get rid of a hacky project we had to use to get .less and JavaScript minification working the way we wanted, but it still deserves a beer in my book.

I have been looking at the JS stack more and more and just starting to really have a play with things. Liking the look of what Grunt is capably of and think that these 2 videos demonstrate the simplicity of it all.
Getting started with GruntJS[^]
Using GruntJS Plugins[^]
Don't know how that could potentially fit into your dev stack........

If you set the beer down on your open book it becomes hard to close; if you pour it out on the book it becomes soggy.

I'm looking for an RSS reader whose interface is a dockable app bar like the good ol' Google Desktop used to be. (Google Desktop was discontinued awhile ago.)
All the RSS readers I see on the shareware sites use a regular desktop window for their UI.
Does anybody know of one that uses an app bar interface?

This is not what you are specifically asking for but NewsFox can run as a FireFox tab or a tray app, rocks and is free.
I use it as part of my homepage group to hopefully get first shot at craigslist stuff.

Sorry, I couldn't understand your requirement. But here are my suggestions for RSS readers, you might find what you are looking for. (all are web based).

2. AOL Reader[^]
3. Digg Reader[^]
