November 2012Sometimes I’m really pissed off and I write a very long mail for the other party. I give facts and figures to show I strongly disagree or I’m hurt by some statement. It’s a feeler reaction. I know it. That’s why with time I have learned not to push on the send button and save them as draft or send them to myself. Today is such a day. I received unfair feedback this morning. I wrote the complete argumentation in an email. Now I know I’m not to blame. So I’m sending that sanguine email to my gmail, in case I really need to put those arguments on the table… Is it accepting the other point of view ? No. it’s avoiding to harm the relation even more. It’s trying to find another solution than retaliation. It’s counting points silently before making the final call.

Ce train en chocolat était exposé la semaine passée à la gare du midi. Il y avait un écriteau qui disait “non comestible”. Bizarre pour un train en chocolat…

 Since 1998 I have always had a website. I use this web presence to post things that I have seen, that I find interesting, that I like or that I think. I hope you like it. I like feedback, so don't hesitate... Links:
 I'm the webmaster of many websites (www.jfdeclercq.com, jfdeclercq.wordpress.com, appepaper.com, eavolution.com...) My WorkI'm a Civil Engineer in Computer Sciences and an MBA. (cfr my CV). I work since several years as a "Software Engineer". I worked for Cediti (an UCL spin-off), Software AG, HP and IBM. In 2010 I have taken 1 year sabbatical leave in order to start new activities in the field of ePaper and eReading (electronic Reading). I have launched a new website : http://www.appepaper.com/ Today I still focus on "Digital Reading" ICT systems. For example, I design systems which allow to buy, rent or lend e-books. But my work activities are still diversified : ICT Architecture (mostly SOA), eReading and Social Maketing (new), you can read about all of them on my professional blog : http://eavolution.com/ In the future I would like to do 100% eReading. My objective is to become a worldwide expert on eReading by 2020. My LeisuresI like sports. I have been doing football (soccer), water-polo, horse-riding and tennis in the past, but today I focus on cycling (montain bike, road bike, spinning). You can see me playing water-polo (scoring a goal) here : MyFirstYouTubeVideo. I also like travelling a lot.  We must value the artist, especially in ourselves. t.co
Sometimes people think that engineers are slow at doing or moving. That’s because some thinking is often needed before finding the way to go… Follow the link and read the story, you’ll understand why we sometimes remain silent for a while… http://eavoices.com/2012/11/26/by-thinking/  
Next time someone tells me that modeling is not needed and coding directly is better, remind me to laugh and to tell him to come back later… There is no such thing as a good drawing, like using a roadmap when you travel. We are human beings, not machines.

Sample Business Processes Diagrams with ProcessOn - Drawing Diagrams in the cloud t.co
Cette année je ne compte plus le nombre de diagramme d’architecture (ICT) que j’ai dessinés. Il y en a de toutes sortes : des capabilities maps, des governance processes, des data models, des service portfolios, des SOA overview, des diagrammes de contexte “situation actuelle”, “situation désirée”, des diagrammes d’activité, des use cases, des plans d’actions… Je voudrais les publier, j’essaye de les rendre beaux. Mais, grande frustration, je ne peux pas. Ils appartiennent à mes clients. Ou alors ils contiennent des plans de modules innovatifs que nous ne voudrions pas publier… D’où mon idée de peindre des versions abstraites de ces diagrammes… Par exemple la Vlaams e-Boek Platform (VEP).
J’aimerais faire un desssin comme celui-là toutes les mois. Mais pour cela il me faudrait plus de temps et plus de projets “publics”. Entretemps si j’ai le temps je ferai un e-book en Anglais qui explique les différents éléments du tableau. A suivre en 2013…
