]]> http://daveelkins.com/2009/02/11/starting-a-web-company/feed/ 0 A very good article about Risk Mismanagement on Wall Street http://daveelkins.com/2009/01/26/a-very-good-article-about-risk-mismanagement-on-wall-street/ http://daveelkins.com/2009/01/26/a-very-good-article-about-risk-mismanagement-on-wall-street/#comments Mon, 26 Jan 2009 20:25:14 +0000 dave http://daveelkins.com/?p=75 This is a very good article about risk management on Wall Street and the use and misuse of a tool helped in the current financial meltdown.

This has a lot of applications in the way we use tools and measurements in developing software. We need to know the proper use and limitations of the software development tools and systems we use.

I have always found something odd about those types of questions because how can you really know.  How many people thought they would be working at Google twenty years?   Probably none since it did not even exist. :)

Enjoy.
