    Is Automation Ultimately Our Friend or Foe? (Book Discussion)

    As computing professionals, we spend much of our time automating. Automating tasks that a human would have done manually in the past.  What's the net impact of all this automation?  Has it ultimately made life for the masses sweeter, softer, simpler, and safer? In his latest book, The Glass Cage, Nicolas Carr analyzes this question deeply. He gives great examples, for instance, pointing out that now that our creations are becoming autonomous, our creations encode moral decisions that would have, in the past, been made directly by a human. In this episode, Bett and Russ discuss the more interesting points from this book: The Glass Cage, highlighting how it relates to our jobs as computing professionals.

    Under N: Acceptance to Delivery in N Hours with Umashankar Velusamy (Uma)

    While nine woman can't make a baby in one month, nine possums can...what does that have to do with software delivery?  You'll have to listen to find out. In this episode, Uma describes his Under-N methodology.  The Under-N methodology provides a framework to uncover hidden capabilities within IT applications and IT application teams and then to use the capabilities to deliver a business need, change, or want in under N hours, where N is the absolute time it takes to deliver. It also elicits capabilities that may not yet be present but that are possible, while outlining four atomic change capabilities that, when implemented, will enable IT applications to deliver changes in an under-N fashion by mixing and matching.  Listen now: (download) References: Slides for Uma's presentation: http://resources.sei.cmu.edu/library/asset-view.cfm?assetid=89596
