| 21:22.37 | landley | And finished porting TI code from one TI branch to another in the same repository. |
| 21:23.17 | landley | Dear TI bangalore: if the tree doesn't BUILD between the first and second commits, you're doing it wrong. |
| 21:23.39 | landley | Checking in all changes to .c files in commit one, and all changes to .h files in commit two, is NOT HOW SOURCE CONTROL WORKS. |
| 21:23.50 | landley | (About the third time they pull that trick, you start to look for it...) |
| 21:24.05 | landley | Which is the point at which they spread the breakage over three or more commits... |
| 21:24.49 | SpeedEvil | Eeek! |
| 21:25.17 | SpeedEvil | I can barely work cvs, and even I know that. :) |
| 21:25.36 | calculus | what tree/code/branch is this from? |
| 21:46.25 | prpplague | landley: hehe |
| 21:46.39 | prpplague | landley: what TI code are you working on? |
| 21:55.28 | landley | calculus: arago. |
| 21:57.29 | landley | http://arago-project.org/git/projects/?p=linux-omap3.git |
| 21:58.00 | landley | TI outsourced development to bangalore, of course. |
| 21:58.34 | landley | Back in the early 90's India figured out that it could train clueless newbie developers by bidding insanely low on oursourced IT contracts. |
| 21:58.57 | landley | As soon as the newbies learn anything useful, they get cycled out to work on higher-margin domestic projects for asian customers, and new clueless newbies get cycled in. |
| 21:59.30 | landley | So the average lifespan of one of these developers is a single digit number of months, and then you never hear from them again because they've started a local business with customers in china and korea and such, close to home. |
| 22:00.35 | landley | I.E. we're training our competition, it's just they're not coming over HERE to compete with us (not any time soon, anyway). But then we wonder why we have such a hard time expanding into china and such, because the indian developers are already selling into there with a multi-year headstart... |
| 22:01.07 | landley | The real downside to this is that we get to keep the code but not the people. Skills are walking out the door all the time. |
| 22:01.37 | landley | Then again, some companies like it that way: http://www.pbs.org/cringely/pulpit/1999/pulpit_19990826_000399.html |
| 22:02.14 | landley | That article is about how Microsoft explicitly acquires "code, not people". Using the hotmail acquisition as an example... |
| 22:06.04 | prpplague | landley: interesting, i had not seen this |
