| | Why specs matter [dive into mark] |
 | | But then when they finally bother to read the spec, they magically turn into assholes and argue that the spec is ambiguous, or misleading in some way, or ignoreable because nobody else implements it, or simply wrong. | | | Someone points them to the sentence in the spec that clearly spells out how horribly broken their software is, and they fix it. | | | If someone yells at them for writing useless software, they smugly point to the sentence in the spec that clearly spells out how their horribly broken software is technically correct, and then they crow about it on their blogs. |

| | Joel on Software - Painless Functional Specifications - Part 4: Tips |
| | The mistake is that when you write a spec, in addition to being correct, it has to be understandable, which, in programming terms, means that it needs to be written so that the human brain can "compile" it. | | | One of the big differences between computers and human brains is that computers are willing to sit there patiently while you define the terms that you want to use later. | | | So the spec template now has a section that says "Internet Component." Whenever somebody writes a spec, no matter how trivial, they have to fill in that section that says "Internet Component", even if they're just creating the spec for the Microsquish Keyboard. |

| | Joel on Software - Painless Functional Specifications - Part 1: Why Bother? |
| | The most important function of a spec is to design the program. | | | First of all, failing to write a spec is the single biggest unnecessary risk you take in a software project. | | | Even if you are working on code all by yourself, and you write a spec solely for your own benefit, the act of writing the spec -- describing how the program works in minute detail -- will force you to actually design the program. |

| | While we don't know yet how SPECS will look, we do believe that it will answer important questions that will remain unanswered in the year 2010 and that it could be deployed a few years after that if the required technologies, devices and techniques are built and tested in the coming decade. | | | The case for SPECS is summarized in seven charts (pdf file). | | | A 30 meter maximum baseline interferometer would serve this purpose and could be built and made operational by 2009. |
