SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT RHYTHMS
In the deep dark night, lying down on Kande beach on the shores of Lake Malawi, we looked up into the cloudless sky. Countless tiny stars were blinking at us. A little tired, or perhaps just mesmerized by those distant, mysterious lights, we closed our eyes and began to hear more, the peaceful slapofwateronthelittlebeach,andthesmall,almostconcertedsoundsofthe darknight,throbbinginwhatseemedlikeadeep,rhythmicbreathing.Nature is an incomprehensible concert of rhythms. Our Earth in its solar orbit spins throughspacecomposingtherhythmofdayandnight,endlesslyrecyclingits four seasons. Following natures rhythm, we wake to learn and sleep to remember, writing and rewriting our own programs in accordance with the very best universal software practice in a flawless symphony of rhythms. From heartbeats to footsteps, rhythms are a sustaining, momentum-creating vital force. In a world where complexity appears very much like chaos, we seek the confidence of being able to assign causes and identify correlations, but sometimes it is only the discovery of rhythms that allows us to see the order that sustains all.
