Hidden Figures

When the film started, I thought I wouldn't like it and that I would just talk about the story of the take-off of Apollo 11. However, I liked Katherine's story. It's very admirable the great effort she made to achieve her dreams and to stand out among men. Because at that time women were not considered for the important jobs or could not aspire to great positions. However, she struggled to finish her studies and realize her dream of working at NASA.

In the beginning it was quite difficult for others to take into account, because the society was very racist, and they always separated the whites from the blacks. However, his great knowledge proved to be superior to that of the other men at NASA and with this he achieved a great change in society. She had to suffer from ridicule, injustice, abuse and racism. That is why I greatly admire her great courage to excel despite having all those obstacles in her way.

In my opinion, I hate the ideas of a society that does not value women and their great ability to do the most complicated jobs. Katherine proved this, as her job was to do the mathematical calculations for a take-off. Her work was very important and with many risks, since, with a minimum error, she could put the astronauts' lives at risk.

This film left me with many lessons and yet I enjoyed it so much that I wanted to know more about the details that happened. All careers and professions are equally important to society and each one brings what is necessary, as well as human beings. This makes it clear that neither gender nor skin color defines the limit of our capabilities, with determination and effort you can achieve anything.
And Katherine demonstrated this with her actions and achievements.

Who Needs an Architect?

In this article the author talks about the concept of architecture and what it means to him. At the beginning he starts to give the IEEE definition, and it is very interesting to see what he thinks about this definition, giving his opinion about the parts in which he agrees and the parts in which he disagrees. The author defines two types of architects, these are: Architectus Reloadus: is the person who makes all the important decisions. The architect does this because a single mind is needed to ensure a system’s conceptual integrity, and perhaps because the architect doesn’t think that the team members are sufficiently skilled to make those decisions. Often, such decisions must be made early on so that everyone else has a plan to follow. Architectus Oryzus : This kind of architect must be very aware of what’s going on in the project, looking out for important issues and tackling them before they become a serious problem. The most important activity of Architectus Oryzus is ...

Is Design Dead?

In this article they focus on two topics: design and extreme programming. What I understood from what I read was that design is no longer so important in an environment where extreme programming is done. Programming refers to a way of programming in a fast way, so certain phases are ignored, so that results can be obtained quickly. This still implies that not so much time is spent on documentation, the major effort is concentrated on coding. In my opinion, I think that for any project, the design phase is very important. It is fundamental to know the system requirements, analyze the problem and design solutions, as well as define the tools to be used and estimate the time to complete the project. In this way, a date can be given to the client so that a quality result can be generated, which will be functional, scalable and understandable in case a developer wants to improve it or simply to give maintenance. However, the author mentions interesting things about extreme programming: ...
