This short video (3:41) goes a long way towards explaining why things are the way they are at a lot of corporations. I definitely have worked with some managers who unwittingly subscribe to these theories.

Interestingly enough it is sponsored by the crack staff at Microsoft.

Be sure to check out the "alternative" management ideas at Despair Inc. :-( funny stuff!

Like great art, this post by Darren Hobbs will long be remembered as the one that described Java in a way that most anyone can appreciate :-)
