    Seems like the author has never programmed anything

      I’m getting pretty old so I have experienced multiple waterfall projects. The comic should be

      You want to go to mars You spend 3 months designing a rocket You spend 6 months building a rocket You spend a month testing the rocket and notice there is a critical desing flaw.

      You start over again with a new design and work on it for 2 months You spend another 6 months building it You spend 2 months testing

      Rocket works fine now, but multiple other companies already have been to Mars, so no need to even go anymore.

        This is the perfect waterfall analogy.

        This is the way

      pretty sure they’re saying waterfall for building a rocket because that’s literally how NASA builds a rocket, including the software. It’s terrible for building anything other than a rocket though, because the stakes aren’t high for most other projects, at least not in the way that a critical mistake will be incredibly bad.

        i take you have never heard of the V-model. basically you climb the waterfall back up to verify everything. most things that fly within the atmosphere are done that way. pretty sure NASA would do the same.

          You’re right I haven’t heard of that model, but NASA has documented pretty well that it follows waterfall. https://appel.nasa.gov/2018/11/27/spotlight-on-lessons-learned-aligning-system-development-models-with-insight-approaches/

          You can assume people here know what waterfall and the V model are.

            Depends. I’ve heard management talk about agile and waterfall, but I’ve not heard even one manager say V model.

      I’m glad I’m not alone. I couldn’t make sense of this comic.
