“Assigning more programmers to a project running behind schedule will make it even later, due to the time required for the new programmers to learn about the project, as well as the increased communication overhead.” – Don’t forget that Brooks’ Law talks about projects that run already late!

Typical of managers who don t know what the hell their employees actually do.

reading your comics I start to realize how much programming resembles to arts (drawing, writing and to any creative process in general).. if the goal is quality, then you have to forget the notion of time and just concentrate on creation and analyzing

Yuusha, there’s no question that in that case the game will be completed sooner. The point is that it won’t be completed in _half_ of the time!

I’m pretty new to programming, but I’m currently learning C# and I’ve played around a bit with Ruby. If you honestly think adding more people to the project won’t get it finished faster, you clearly need to rethink things a bit.

Let’s say you’re working on a game. What would be most productive, having one programmer working on everything, or having one programmer working on programming certain aspects of the game, such as physics, while another programmer focuses on another aspect of the game, such as geometry programming?

“Would be funny if there was any truth to it. If there are more programmers, they can split up the work inbetween them, meaning the program will be completed sooner.

Unless the joke is that the manager is the reason the project is going slowly.”

Are you for serious? Clearly you don’t know the first thing about programming.
