Well, since we're being literal - you used "software development", I used "software developing" - so where does that leave us?SandmanEric Stevens
Semantics, the trolls last resort. What kind of developer do you think Tony was in reference to? Agricultural developer? Film developer?
The problem is that properly framed neither an objection nor a question. I used the words you used. Now you say I should have used something else. So then should have you.
Which is something entirely different that what we have been discussing.Eric StevensIf it was a class room I would chalk up a diagram setting out the hierarchy of instructions which define the difference between a protocol and a procedure (software implements a procedure to meet the requirements of a protocol). As this is not a classrroom I will have to leave you to think about this yourself.Sandman
Sure, what you will NOT do, hwoever, is substantiate your incorrect claim about my knowledge about the word "protocol". As predicted.
Let's try again but this time using 'IP' = Internet Protocol.
1. It's a Protocol. 2. It describes something, but not any scrap of software or hardware.
Yet people implementing TCP/IP have to follow the IP protocol. Just as in Tony's example people backing up his hypothetical computer have to follow his backup protoocol.Sure, that's STILL not substantiation for your claim:
You are now outright lying, Eric.Sandman
So quote a post from you that:1. Shows me misusing, misunderstanding or misapplying the word "protocol" 2. Shows you correctly using it.Unless you can do both, you are a liar.Eric Stevens
You are being dense. You have been told over and over again.
Ah, another claim from you! Now you have to quote me saying that "protocol means software"Sandman
You failed to substantiate your claim again, Eric. All you offer is hot air and empty words.You claimed that I don't know what "Protocol" means, yet you have provided NOTHING *from me* that is support for that claim from you. Your irrelevant and incorrect "examples" is *not* substantiation for your initial claim.Eric Stevens
Your use of the word protocol as meaning software is quite wrong.
I didn't use the words "software development", that was you, Eric.Eric StevensSandmanSandman
Now you've gone and seem to claim that the phrase should be verbatim just to shoot down my claim that it was Tony who brought it up (since he didn't use the exact phrase "software development") but what does that make out of your initial claim since you in the process have proved that.. neither have I.So - Eric, why are YOU going on about "software development"??Eric Stevens
Because you said (above) "he had started to talk about it".
I.e. I never claimed he said "software development" verbatim. That's your troll diversion when you realized that it was your troll buddy that had started the topic you tried to pin on me.
You used those words. Now you are trying to claim they are not relevant.
