ASUS has now opened up pre-orders for the Zephyrus... Read more ›

Как связаны ИТ и строительство? Очень тесно — через методологию управления. Несколько лет назад я впервые столкнулся с методологией Scrum. Тогда она произвела на меня колоссальное впечатление. Позже, конечно, я нашёл и негативные стороны этого подхода, и понял, что в разных проектах лучше использовать разные подходы. Благо, что их придумано множество! Читать далее Read more ›
