12/29 A while back I remember seeing a headline like "80% of outsourced
projects fail", but now I can't find it. Does anyone know what I'm
talking about and have a link to the sory?
\_ That's pretty funny. Before outsourcing became big, I was reading
that 80% of all (large) software projects fail. I think it's also
true that > 80% of any software project runs over budget and behind
schedule.
\_ Most likely it's from The Mythical Man Month, which has that
direct statistic.
\_ That's why I want to find that story--to revisit the details.
\_ 99% of the women sodan males fantasize about wouldn't give them
the time of day. Actually, that's probably true of males in
general.
\_ 99% of the women we fantasize about are best left as
fantasies. |
