Best in Class or All in One

Is it better to deploy the best product in each category or to select an all-in-one product that does everything? We discuss this age-old debate in the TimeControl Blog.

We’ve been asked to talk about this topic numerous times since the mid 1990s when the first ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) packages were expanding at a rapid rate. “Is it better”, we were asked, “to select the best of each category of software or instead, to select one package that can do everything at once?” The conversation would become known as All-in-One vs. Best-in-Class. The answer from…

1. e4 e5 2. Bc4 Nf6 theory

3. Qe2 Bc5 4. Nf3 Nc6 5. c3 d6 6. d3 h6 7. a4 a6 8. h3 O-O 9. Be3 Bxe3

Vaguely theory. The W likely is trying to cheat the anticheating naively, playing weird but not too much weakening moves, specially Qe2.

10. fxe3 Re8 11. O-O Be6 12. Bxe6 Rxe6 13. c4 Nh5 14. Qe1 a5 15. Nc3 Nb4 16. Rd1 Rg6

All best moves of engine for W

17. g4 Surprise! Out of three best of engine. W wins a monkey puppet for her originality.

Nf6 18. Kh2 Nd7 19. Nh4 Rf6 20. Nf5 Nc5 21. d4 Nd7 22. h4 Nc6 23. Nd5 Re6 24. Qf2 exd4 25. exd4 Rg6 26. Rd3

All best moves for W. I ask to Claudia if there is something i should know. Yes, it is. Framed.

Nf6 27. Nxf6+ Qxf6 28. g5 hxg5 29. h5 Re8 30. hxg6 Rxe4 31. gxf7+ Kf8 32. Rh3 Rf4 33. Rh8+ Kxf7 34. Qe3 All best moves for W, except the last one, 3rd best move, so generous. I quit and report. In Far West, the poker cheaters could be shot or hanged on the spot. Good old times.

Chess : Decline the War

Recent own online chess game, 15 min + 10 sec. I played the White pieces and chose a rare variation against the Dutch Defence : 2. g4 ?! I remembered Blacks response 3…g3! is most accurate, not capturing pawn h3 but returning the gambit pawn. So my opponent didn't seem to be surprised, but i won the game.

TimeControl is turning 30!

The TimeControl timesheet system is turning 30! I know, we're shocked too! It has been a remarkable ride since 1994 for what we imagined would be the most modest of software releases we would do. How far TimeControl has come since then. Take a peek at our blog posting and the TimeControl Press Release.

Here at HMS we’re celebrating the 30th anniversary of TimeControl. When we first released the TimeControl Timesheet back in 1994 we expected this to be the first of many applications we’d write but TimeControl took over our lives and now, 30 years later, those of us who have been with HMS Software for all of that time are somewhat amazed. The product was envisaged to be a timesheet that could…
