Having experienced a miscarriage personally, I can tell you it is not the same as losing a child. On the other hand, being a parent, I firmly believe that if my child needed to terminate a pregnancy, it is nobody’s…
please stop using the phrase unborn child. We don’t call eggs unborn chickens. This whole pro life concept is bull$h!t.By that definition, every miscarriage should have a funeral and proper burial of the remains - and…
I’m afraid I disagree… 30 pages for mortgage, and then all the terms of service for the software services that you use, plus the credit cards, websites visited and so on… this becomes a full time job for a legally…
That’s part of the problem… everything can’t be reduced to if-then-else; situational awareness, perspective, nuance and understanding are completely missing. In this case, how helpful is it to the child to remove the…
Sadly humanity is susceptible to hate - it is so easy to vilify a marginalized group for cynical power grabbing
People are idolized, their accomplishments embellished, and their shortcomings overlooked when they are in positions of power and prestige. Often times the role of sheer luck, cronyism and connections are completely…
Fired due to clerical error! That’s a new one, and quite motivating for the employee who is no longer fired.
> commentator on twitter put it well saying "It felt like we all lost our Grandmother" This is a nice, soft and mushy comment that will gather likes and retweets. It also influences one into suspending critical thinking…
This is exactly what I would not want my team to suffer. They need to feel inspired, and those who are not inspired will know it themselves, and so will everyone they work with. I don't need a spreadsheet to tell…
In my experience, metrics are a giant waste of time for engineers and engineering managers. Project managers and folks who depend on the fruits of engineering labor on the other hand love these metrics. It is simpler…
Indeed. This is the best description of the conundrum of Agile I have read so far
What is a scrum master expected to do? Not being sarcastic here, I am genuinely curious
I understand that 30 years of experience has to count for something, and maybe some people are fortunate enough to be able to work in an environment that is devoid of all the politics that "Agile" leaves in its wake. My…
Software used to be built before Agile... Let's at least keep solution design and also get senior engineers to help estimate And do away with daily stand up and bs rituals.. a meeting is needed when it is needed, not…
This is not how it works in real life. Contracts are made to the lowest bidder, there are promises to keep or heads will roll. By iteration 10, your customer is fuming that the half baked idea has more exceptions than…
Agile is bogus nonsense - there I said it.
I look at the outcome, and can certainly say that the tools I use find issues than I didn't know existed
Is your own code free of security vulnerabilities? Will you be able to identify and avoid issues with 3rd party libraries by reading their code, and the code of all the other libraries that they depend on? Do you know…
Agile does not take reality into account. Estimates become deadlines and turn into death marches. The watering hole is poisoned and culture dies a painful death. That is because customers and business owners footing the…
Umm… no. I really don’t like the subtext of this question
Why is this a thing?? Seriously, every language has its rules...just follow the rules and build something useful
There are some good videos on YouTube- charisma on demand, Vanessa van Edwards, school of life, Jordan Peterson IMO, it can be difficult to overcome this all by yourself. Having someone in your life who is willing to…
Often, you think it is a car, and then when you start to work, you realize it is actually an octopus
Umm... the article refers to Asian Americans. Do they need a visa to work in their own country?
