These days I’m having discussions of good with Valentino (my dwarf 3 years) relating to “the death ray“. Up where we have defined the concepts, the ray of death is the most powerful weapon in the world and can destroy a WaSP that bother us in the pool, descacharrar a friend car Lightning McQueen, or destroying a planet where many poor live. Without going any further, a couple of days ago, when we were playing in the pool, and saw a WaSP that bothered us, because I asked that we could get us to the top heavy, and taking 20 handmade things that we could have used, the response of the Valentino was: “her burn with the death ray!“, going to the Valentino does not walk with Chiquita.
I tried to explain to him that if we had a lightning death by hand, we could do more fun things that kill a single WaSP;for example, make a hole in the Atlantic Ocean to assemble the largest in the world and stuff-water whirlpool. That to ward off a WaSP, with a magazine reaches. And of course, on the one hand the Valentino understood the idea, but on the other hand remained disappointed by not using lightning death. That Yes, when we started to throw things at the WaSP to go, gave to the nest of wasps and us empezaró to pursue a swarm of good, fun was guaranteed. In addition to later talk that we gave the related MOM with playing with wasps.
Without having to resort to the example of the ray of death, to my every so I have give this type of talks at work;discussions related to choose the tool or a group of right tools for every problem that we have to face.
When I am a fan who thinks that you can manage any project with PostIts and Story Walls, because I tell you that in order to work with 3 working groups in different time zones, with the rather strict budget monitoring, for example; so in addition to the “Board” will have to resort to some sort of tool more. It is necessary to choose a system of video communication very agile, define consistent schedules for the daily scrums, select a tool to manage incurred, something to coordinate with the shopping area, etc. We will what I said is the first thing we get on the Board to be taking the first steps, but we should then begin to create a dynamics of work that integrates all of these tools. The phrase “only with PostIts, and a Board I the arrangement“, it is not true.
In the same way, when I meet a consultant on duty who wants to mount a manager of incidents in a high availability environment for rapid development, you want to set up the entire application in the cloud because it is fashionable and obviously to make the application compatible with iPods, iPads, iPhones, Androids, Windows Phone 7 and the phone of my auntthen explained him that you for a proof of concept of an asynchronous transformation of banking data process, because just need a couple of reports (HTML) with the result of the process and little more.
And not to mention those who want to do everything with a single tool! In the case of Waterfall methodologies, because I’ve seen as the combination of Word + Excel has replaced completely the essence of a software product… but of course, follow is roll me, too.
With the Valentino it are clear:
The wasps you throw away what we have at hand to frighten them, now well; If ever a spaceship full of petulant Martians there took the ray of death and we are a party and when Martians.
It is a pity, that often is simpler to explain this to my son for 3 years as a software partner.

PS: tell me everything that you see in the photo before is a tablerito in my fridge/refrigerator with which we manage the tareitas and earrings in my house with my girl and the Valentino. The happy faces
are obviously of the Valentinoy the Martina will begin to add some when it begins to have what we call common sense.
