Для постро­е­ния марш­рута про­екта исполь­зуйте прин­цип «думать гло­бально, дей­ство­вать локально». Пред­ставьте раз­ви­тие про­дукта в пер­спек­тиве и опре­де­лите резуль­таты, кото­рых хотите добиться в клю­че­вых точ­ках.

Поды­то­жим. Сто­про­цент­ных про­ек­тов не бывает, чем‑то при­дётся жерт­во­вать. Если выби­рать из вре­мени, денег, каче­ства и функ­ци­о­наль­но­сти мето­дом исклю­че­ния, оста­ётся функциональность. В этом суть метода, кото­рый в бюро назвали ФФФ: фик­си­руем срок, фик­си­руем бюд­жет, флек­сим функциональность.

Зафиксировать Часть системы дела­ется ста­тич­ной, её невоз­можно изме­нять или настра­и­вать, пове­де­ние опре­де­ля­ется зара­нее запро­грам­ми­ро­ван­ным алгоритмом.

Снизить управляемость Воз­мож­ность управ­ле­ния систе­мой устра­ня­ется. При­мер: во вто­рой вер­сии сайта изме­ри­тель­ных при­бо­ров «Регу­ляр» глав­ная стра­ница была отклю­чена от админки и опуб­ли­ко­вана как ста­ти­че­ский файл.

Закрыть глаза на недостатки При любых обсто­я­тель­ствах нельзя жерт­во­вать каче­ством. Про­стое реше­ние не зна­чит пло­хое, а отсут­ству­ю­щая фича лучше сломанной.

Когда заказчик требует неведомую хуйню. Что вы имеете ввиду? Расскажите подробнее. Почему это важно? Как это связано с другими частями работы? А что если мы сделаем так...?

For 'Prometheus,' I came back to a very simple question that haunted me that appears in the first 'Alien,' and no one answered in subsequent Alien films: who was the 'Space Jockey' - the big guy in the seat? If you really go into that, it becomes the basis for a pretty interesting story.

As our enemies have found we can reason like men, so now let us show them we can fight like men also.

The thing about Vegas is, I don't have to fly anywhere, and that really helps. It means I stay in one place for three weeks at a time instead of flying backwards and forwards.

There's no such thing as a perfect person, so it makes no sense to write a perfect person. I don't know any author who'd try. And we write characters, not representations of groups.

I've thought about it a hundred times. I even buy bridal magazines sometimes. I want David Tutera to do my wedding.

I just have so few sunrises left, and I want to be happy.

This friend of mine said he was surprised to find that - I don't think it's quite a majority - a bigger percentage of actors are introverts than extroverts. It was a big surprise to him. Now, I know me, and I'll do anything if I'm playing a character. Or anything that's true to the character, anyway. But in real life I'm a little more withdrawn.

Whenever there is authority, there is a natural inclination to disobedience.

Books are my art. The movie is someone else's art. But it's great marketing for books.

African film makers are scraping by on a mere pittance.

I don't want to be limited or ghettoized in any way.

My parents were teetotalers and my grandparents were - it's all the way back. It's New English puritanical tradition.

Bankruptocracy is as much a European predicament as it is an American 'invention.' The difference between the experience of the two continents is that at least Americans did not have to labour under the enormous design faults of the eurozone.

Networked science has the potential to speed up dramatically the rate of discovery across all of science.

I'm just really trying to say what I really mean, which is: 'Your eye's on the prize, your eye's on the future. It's nice to know that a lot of wonderful things have happened to your life and that so much of it has been successful. That's great, but the work is really what makes it fun - and that has to be the future.'

I'm one of those guys who likes to piddle around in the garage and fix stuff.

To do de-Baathification without an agreed process of reconciliation threw tens of thousands of people out of their jobs, out of their homes, out of their future, and even robbed them of their position in society.

I think this happens to a lot of people, men and women, where you reach a point in your life and all of a sudden realize that things have changed. You suddenly realize that people are coming up behind you, that maybe somebody might want to replace you for less money.

I have been tossing around the idea of writing some non-fiction. Maybe a collection of short stories about my experience being a mom and how not to be perfect.

We have to remind people how important arts are. People just don't see it.

I'm happy in the UK. I absolutely love it and I've finally got a great group of friends. I've got a lovely little flat and my work's here.

McLaren was a risky project because they were completely new, but we are one team - we win and we lose together.

So I let them be responsible for there particular areas. Then by the time it gets to me that means that there is a problem. I have my eyes open and I need to know something about every department but you don't want to micro manage any particular department.

I guess, in a way, I grew up mixed race: half white, half black. That question's always been on my mind: 'What are you? Are you this or that? Are you a white dude or are you a black dude?' In a strange way, music and comedy is kind of the same thing. I'm both. They're just different modes of expression.
