Lessons Learned in a Continuously Developing Service-Oriented Architecturemdwheele
The goal of this presentation is to highlight the successes in applying modern development practices that tend to be regarded as “too much overhead” for small development teams. I was one of those nay-sayers. This presentation is a journey in moving an overburdened development team into a more efficient environment where regular progress is made and realistic expectations in timelines become possible. I plan to cover topics such as agile project management, application design strategies, version control, unit testing, and all the reasons why these globally common practices are well worth buy-in at a developer and managerial level. Given time constraint on presentation length, the depth of technical discussion will be relatively shallow. As I progress through the talk, I plan to use a recent development project for illustrative purposes. By not diving too deep, the discussion can instead focus more on proving that these processes do have real return on investment for developers and project managers alike.

12. What is Irony?
Irony is about expectations.
Irony: the opposite of what is expected.
3 kinds of irony
• Verbal
• Dramatic
• Situational
13. Verbal Irony
A character says one thing but means
the opposite
Also called sarcasm or being sarcastic.
Examples
The locker room smells really good.
Awesome! Another homework packet!
14. Dramatic Irony
When the reader understands more
about the events of a story than a
character.
You know something that a character
doesn’t.
Example
Tim’s parents are proud of the “A” he got on
the test, but we know he cheated.
Alex writes a love poem to Judy but we know
15. Situational Irony
When what actually happens is the
opposite of what is expected.
Something about the situation is completely
unexpected.
Example
General Sedgwick’s last words were, “They
couldn’t hit an elephant at this distance.”
Bill Gates uses an Apple computer.
16. Review
Something that is ironic is unexpected.
If unexpected by a character, it’s
dramatic.
If unexpected by everyone, it’s
situational.
If it’s sarcasm, it’s verbal.
17. Quiz
• Read the following examples of irony.
Determine which of the three types of
irony are being used.
18. 1. When Mr. Goodenwell saw his baby boy Vince
for the first time, he swore that he'd do anything to
protect the little guy. This was easy at first, when all
Vince did was lie in a pillow and drink milk. But as
little Vince grew bigger, he started walking. And
once he started walking, he got into everything. He
was becoming a serious threat to himself when Mr.
Goodenwell, making good on his vow to protect his
son, went to the store and bought $150 worth of
equipment to childproof his home. He put covers on
the outlets, bumpers on the table corners, and a
sliding lock on the toilet lid. But right as Mr.
Goodenwell was adjusting the covers on the door
knobs, Vince pulled the cap off an outlet and choked
on it. Mr. Goodenwell found him just in time.
19. 2. One bright and warm Easter morning, Timmy
Holloway woke up to the smell of eggs, but not
breakfast eggs, Easter eggs. That's right Timmy
had a craving for Easter eggs, and today was the
day to get them boy howdy. There was only one
thing standing in his way, well two really: the
Solomon brothers. The Solomon brothers got more
eggs than Timmy every year because there were
two of them and they counted their eggs as one.
Timmy suspected that this was cheating but he
couldn't articulate the notion. When Timmy got to
the fair grounds, he clutched his Easter egg sack
behind his back and approached the Solomon
brothers.
20. The taller one distracted Timmy while the shorter
one snuck behind him, clipping the corner of
Timmy's egg sack and making quite a big hole.
Unfortunately, Timmy failed to notice this. When the
whistle blew, Timmy was off. He was surprised to
see the Solomon brothers behind him, since he was
much faster than they, but he didn't mind. Timmy
beat them to every egg, and raced on to the next,
never noticing that his sack wasn't getting heavier.
As he approached the end of the course, Timmy
was elated that he was the first to finish. The
Solomon brothers were right behind him. "Maybe
next year, loser twins," Timmy chuckled, right before
he noticed that his sack was empty.
21. 3. Making friends isn't easy. Ask Juan
Guerrero, who moved to New Middle School
three months ago but still eats lunch by
himself. Nobody picks on him really, but
they pretty much ignore him completely, at
least since the incident. You see, Juan had
his chance. We almost adopted him into
our crew, the skaters, after Juan said he
could skate. "Oh yeah?" asked my boy
Romeo, "well, where's your board?" Juan
replied shakily, "Uh, my mom ran over it
with her car, but I do flips and grinds and all
that stuff."
22. Romeo didn't believe him. "Why don't you use
my board? Show me one of those flips,"
Romeo challenged. Juan gulped and grabbed
the board. "Uh… Ok," he replied. When you
see a good skater on TV or in a video game,
skateboarding may look easy, but just moving
properly, let alone doing any tricks, takes a lot
of practice. Because of this, I was not the least
bit surprised when Juan landed flat on his can
before he even made it across a single
sidewalk square. "Wow! What an awesome
flip, Tony Hawk. You'll have to teach me that,"
Romeo sneered. Now Juan eats lunch alone.
