I love trump until I remember the story of the strong man. And he is tailor made for it.

I’ve told it many times. Here it is again. But first, know this: He always seems like the good guy, until he isn’t. Follow Trumps actual record of actions and ignore his words. He’s not a talk show host.

I’m a business analyst. Did you know that Business requirements are going from hundreds of pages of text to “cartoons” interspersed with text? It’s because a picture is worth a thousand words.

For what it’s worth, the developers love it.

If you don’t like pictures, here’s the link to the text, rather than the “cartoons”: https://mises.org/system/tdf/Road%20to%20serfdom.pdf?file=1&type=document

Problem is, most people don’t have the attention span to read the whole thing. Different strokes for different folks.

Those are words.

Read his record, not his promises.

Trump is the ONLY person NOT bought and paid for period end of conversation!!! Trump has changed his view points plain and simple, probably due to the extreme difficulty he has had trying to do business in this country in recent years!!! ALL of these SOB’S are bought and paid for we the people make NO difference any longer!!!! They funded EVERYTHING to get a VERY FEW tax cuts for THEIR donors!!!!! WAKE UP EVERYONE!!!!!

Was Hitler bought and paid for? Was Lennin bought and paid for?

And is Cruz bought and paid for? How about Reagan? How about King George.

i.e. there is more to it than that.

Are you referring to UML? If so, it's not just developers who love it. A well done UML diagram is easily understood by business users (at least, the ones I deal with) and everyone from our business requirements analysts, business users, developers, infrastructure architecture, engineering and operations folks absolutely love it. Even our Project Managers and Internal Audit folks love it.

I've lived in all those worlds, now I make my bread and butter doing business and IT process optimization as I've "lived" in just about every part of the bank and UML fits perfectly in that world too.

I was introduced and learned UML back in 2003 at version 2. Been using it since.

The But trolls are another version of the Concern Trolls. Or their cousins.

UML is part of it. We use Visio, iRise and other tools for all sorts of graphic representations of requirements.

Everyone is a visual learner. It’s how human beings work. When people can easily visualize a solution they know when they have found it.

I think the word “troll” often can be interpreted to mean: Person who shares an opinion with which you disagree.

iRise

Visio I've been using since waaaaaaay back before Microsoft owned it .. iRise is something new I'm going to have to go look up, thanks for that! :-)

Pretty funny. That’s what I say about Visio. Just like you said it. I was using it at blue cross in Lynnwood back in the mid 90’s. :-)

iRise allows you to create wireframes that actually have rudimentary functionality and you can attach text requirements to them.

In reading cuban leaf’s post, I believe he was speaking in the spiritual mode. Unless I’ve missed my guess, the ‘strong man’ he refers to is a world leader who will promise to set things aright and bring peace...for a time. I believe we refer to him as “the Anti-Christ”.
