  2. #Flyvbjerg and #DGardner's book on projects has a lot of insight about why #ComputerSystems and #IT projects fail so often ,but the most interesting point is the critical role of #modularity as the great David #Parnas pointed out a long time ago.

  7. One of the striking things I see in modern #Academic #ComputerSystems discussion is a high level of unearned sneering. You know "Those morons who developed X (some widely used complex and highly productive system) were ignorant of basic principles like those exhibited in this in-preparation paper from Stanford" etc.

  8. Anyone interested in #Systems or #ComputerSystems should read the problem set at the US Digital Service. Anyone can build a giant complex system from scratch, but can you deal with incorporating nightmare legacy systems ? Not me.
