Eh, Rare was putting out multiple games in a short timespan of larger size in programming teams fairly small in the 90s. The tools themselves don't seem specific to inducing incredibly large development times when the…
That still doesn't solve the prerequisites being exceedingly rare in most teams. A system solving an issue under rare circumstances is barely worth considering, doubly so if it doesn't solve the issue in your specific…

Free healthcare is not a given even in well-off EU countries. Besides a 'strong social system' (too vague given the dozen ways each country's system is leaking), the remaining points can be done by anyone who has the…
Counterpoint, most places do not teach individuals how to check in often and make their stuff smaller. Some of them don't even realize merging side branche into side branch is a valid strategy to avoid merging…
Cool. Real question, and truly think about it deep and hard: are you okay with being the martyr who ends up jailed, prosecuted, dead or what-have-you before we self correct? These statements are very easy to make, but…
What nuance would you want? YouTube is the most similar to Google Search of all Google products in regards to 'doing things people hate about Google', beyond maybe Android. The product has been trend-chasing for years…
>I generally avoid Google products, but I do not understand the animosity towards YouTube It's still a Google product that does Google things. If you hate Google things, making an exception for YouTube is saying your…
Sincerely, who gives a flying ** as long as things get done? All I can tell you, having 2 loud conversations going on in an open office almost the entire day is going to mess my performance up far more than taking a 30…
2 hours? It takes a few minutes to bake most lean meats and eggs. Potatoes aren't too difficult to cut and cook. Same for rice. Many vegetables can be eaten raw. All of it can be done in parallel. Who are you talking…
This was a webapp to be used internally in an enclosed system, so yes, modifying the keyboards. Company's own hardware.
Wait until you get asked, by CTOs and business people, to disable F5/refreshing because it breaks the process flow but building a resilient process flow into an old app takes 10x-100x as long. Only for them to realize…
Outside of cities, the car reigns supreme in practically every developed country. Including the ones people love to bring forward as 'counterexamples' to car culture.

Most people aren't denying anything. They are rightfully pointing out there's a vocal minority trying to overcorrect things and write history in a way that wasn't the case. Most people don't think women are incapable.…

When was the last time you heard Google or anything Google-related backing down from getting their paws in deeper? It's no longer a fallacy when there's a sign next to the slippery slope.

Not everything needs a hyper-abstracted solution. Most people suck at writing neat abstractions, so they spend an excessive amount of time writing shoddy solutions which no one really wants to deal with but there's a…

Your concern is the restraint against the police? When the riot is burning down the houses of innocents, robbing them and even taking their lives? The kid's dead. Settle the issue with the police in court, but keep the…
It boils down to the same thing. Demand for things men are primarily doing / willing to do / capable of doing hasn't significantly decreased. It has merely been commercialized and subsidized in a way that it isn't at…
