The story of SE-II

The story of SE-II

This is year 2020 and the Stanford school is having a case study which may be of interest to us. So I am publishing it here.

The case study is published as I saw it when I went in future using my time-sand-wi(t)ch.

My own comments are written inside the parenthesis.

Prof 1: You will use java as the development tool.

Students: Yes Sir.

Prof 2:You can use .net as well. In fact I prefer .net and there is going to be a .net test. So go ahead and use .net.

Students: Sir but Prof 1 asked us to us java only.

Prof 2: Prof 1 is @@@@@@@ Do as I say.

A few days are past in the confusion.

Prof 1: OK, Prof Hari Narayan Mukharji has talked to me and you can use .net as well but I think you should not. (And follows a detailed monologue citing the reasons)

(All would have been well if like the rest of the class this particular student has not taken it seriously but as I said there are always a few....)

(b)aby gain: I will use .net.

(O God!!!!Why me always!)

Prof 1: You have to make sure that all the projects are made on the institutes's license.

(b)aby gain: Sir, .net 2005 is available free to all.

Prof 1: OK, but make sure there is no piracy problem.

(So our dear student sends the license agreement to all and thinks, Yes! now I will use .net)

A few days are past with people thinking that the case is over.

Suddenly one day-

Prof 1: You can use only vs2003 as the institute has a license of it.

(b)aby gain: but sir, what is the problem with 2005?

Prof 1: Nirasha doesn't know it.

(b)aby gain: Who the Merlin is Nirasha? (Someone please note the word. Its ur next clue)

Prof 1: She is your TA. ( People I need some good full form of TA, help me out.)

Prof 1: I don't have any problem with 2003 or 2005 but Nirasha has to check it and she doesn't know 2005, so please use 2003, if you still have any problem then contact Usha.

(b)aby gain: Sir, this is not fair. I will talk to her.

(I don't understand why this 2005 is so necessary. when contacted, (b)aby gain just said that it was the wish of his Great Grand Mother that he does his project in .net 2005)

with our limited knowledge of that time's India, we don't know how (b)aby gain convinced her but he did succeed. (The rumor says unprintable things ;-) )

Now the question is who is more stupid,

Prof 1, Prof 2 or ........

The story of SE Part I

Here comes the most demanded story of the year. Due to time constraint, I couldn't do justice to it--

Prof 1: U have to make one software engg. Project. It must be webbbb.. based.

Student: Sir, but we don’t know anything about software eng.!!

Prof 1: That’s okay. Not being clear in the first 20% of the project is okay.

(Read- I will not let u be clear about the project in the first 20% of duration)

All students submitted their project proposal.

Following the 80-20 law, some students didn’t write the word - “WEB” enough number of times and their proposal was rejected.

(Don’t ask me what number was enough, my proposal got rejected too!! Fortunately my guru told me this secret and I got my proposal through by adding the sacred word 10 more times. J)

Now that the grueling task of checking and passing was over, the TAs enjoyed their holidays by playing cricket with the docs submitted. I am not joking; I saw some of them in places u won’t believe – because they are really inaccessible. (Don’t even dare to think if they are really inaccessible then what the hell I was doing there.)

What teachers don’t say.

What teachers don’t say and is obviously obscure—

1. Not knowing is Okay. ( I myself have survived these many years….)
2. Don’t bother about grades. ( I won’t give good grades anyways..)
3. I am listening to you, tell me. (Here goes 5 marks of this roll no.)
4. Hold on, time out. ( I don’t have anything better to say)
5. The answer is Hosur Road. ( Just as answer to life is 42…)
6. Any questions? (Would u dare??)
7. I, kind of, want to talk to u guys. ( I love dancing..)
8. Folks, if u have any questions, direct them to me. ( So that I may say this is the last question to the very next question)
9. At least for this course, we will be on time. (I will be late next 3 lectures)
10. Is the overall idea clear? ( I bet - it is not but I am a sadist, I am a sadist)

activities summery

In case any of u was wondering where I was last month, these are the pointers—

1. I was working in the statistical and meteorological dept.
2. I wanted that all this controversy about my name should subside.
3. Here I wish to mention that I am not giving my name as I don’t like any publicity NOT BECAUSE ANY OTHER REASON. I may be root but its not a free source—enjoy but don’t ask for the source. And one more thing- at least choose good candidates if u really want to gossip about me.

Now that the gossiping is subsided, I will resume writing.
