- Get Me Promoted Methodology (GMPM) - Project designs are done to impress the higher-ups. The presentation is usually the last thing that the management will see produced from the project. Aside from the GUI, everything else from database to documentation is considered not important and sometimes does not need to be done (!) at all.
- Cover My Ass Engineering (CMAE) - Design decisions are all logged in a private database by each developer. Furthermore the managers designed the tasks in such a way that the more isolated each task is the better. When the project blows up, blame other developers (I didn't touch it!) or the technical support (They say not my bug).
- Mushroom Development (MD) - Software devs are kept in the dark like mushroom, while being fed craps and rotten food so that they will not starve. One day when they are considered a nuisance, pluck them from their cubicle and fire away.
- Google Oriented Design (GOD) - we have a legion of GOD followers where we need to worship it for blessings of good code to use in cut n paste programs. Managers may as well as hire Google bots to do the programming.
- Hero Driven Coding (HDC) - Each development team is just waiting for the project to drop off a cliff like a damsel in distress. Once it is at the critical moment, a rock star coder swoops in for the rescue by giving out solutions with source code and full 10 pages of documentation - which was prepared a month ago. All hail the code hero!
