Top Ten Lies of Engineers by Guy Kawasaki

As a former software developer, I can't agree more with the list. Especially, #3 "I'll comment the code, so that the next person can understand what I did" and #4 "Our architecture is scalable." Sure there are comments inside the code but it seems like those comments are for the programmer himself (and sometimes even connotative). As for #4, just like Guy said, if you're at a point where scalability becomes an issue, you've gone quite far into making a business out of your code. And seriously, whose isn't scalable?

p.s. He also has top ten lies of entrepreneurs and VCs. (Top ten list is always fun to read.)
