We’re excited to share that Structure101 has been acquired by @SonarSource! Folding Structure101’s capabilities into Sonar’s products will empower developers to better architect their code early in the development process.

While it’s fairly normal for technical team leads to work to minimise #technicaldebt, they often fail to communicate the importance of resourcing these efforts?

According to @CapeofGoodCode1, they may be using the wrong messaging https://t.co/Rlwe4ZGJbh

Who is to blame when complexity spirals out of control?

Until someone is made directly accountable for controlling measurable complexity on a project, inevitably complexity will end up controlling the project.

“The purpose of software engineering is to control complexity, not to create it.”
- Pamela Zave

You have ‘a level’ of complexity by the second line of code. After that, it’s simply orders of magnitude. Complexity is necessary.

It’s unnecessary complexity which should be avoided

If you can improve the structure of your #code, you’ll find that it actually becomes an intrinsic part of the quality of your #codebase.

#Structure is built over time. #Complexity can happen very quickly…

@phaidinyak "I have yet to find a way to monetize fixing debt."

That's what we do - we just monetize fixing other people's debt, not our own ;)

While it’s fairly normal for technical team leads to work to minimise technical debt, why is it so often the case that they completely fail to communicate the importance of resourcing these efforts to management?

One thing is for sure – cycles make it much harder to tell the story of a codebase.

The fact that this quote from John Lakos' book is almost 30 years old, but still resonates, says as much about the point as it does about the book!

In the early ‘90’s the US Department of Defense commissioned Mitre to develop guidelines for the successful acquisition and management of #software systems. One of the reports significant conclusions stated:

@phaidinyak @vincentdnl We hear this a lot! It would be interesting to hear how people have (or tried and failed to) tackle this?

Managing Engine Updates in C/C++ #GameDevelopment

#Gamedevs are making use of a new #Structure101 dependency database to manage #gamesengine usage and updates in a more informed and predictable way.

#C/C++ models can be difficult to interpret if the file structure of the model doesn't reflect the structure that the project team are used to. #Structure101 has a set of features for manipulating the generated file and folder names.

Great #podcast from @sglebs on managing #technicaldebt. Worth listening to for the "amazing analogies" alone.

If you ever want to split a module up based on how it is used by other modules, here's a step-by-step on how to do that with @structure101 ...
