One thing about Agile that I don't see mentioned much is that it provides a way for bad managers to marginalize the effects of low performers among their groups, though at the expense of high performers. Every company…
A common pattern in embedded C is to use something like "goto fail" instead of assert, wrap your function calls in this sort of macro, and then do error handling in one place at the end of the function. Apparently Apple…
Intel is indeed moving to LLVM for this reason and being totally transparent about it. From https://software.intel.com/en-us/blogs/2009/05/27/why-we-cho... --- LLVM is distributed under the Illinois Open Source License,…
I don't suppose there's any plans for a Word export feature, is there? Unfortunately, a lot of consulting jobs require all docs to be in MS Word format... Infuriating I know.
The point the article is making is that all the problems the anti-agile crowd complains about are less related to agile and more to a dogmatic adoption of specific tools. I think the point the author misses is the irony…
Though everyone'll flame you about "the future", you're probably right. If you read the PLOS One acceptance criteria: http://www.plosone.org/static/publication you'll notice that scientific merit doesn't show up in…
Totally agree. His reply is an overly polite response to a rather snarky rant on why the Linux devs should just shut up and accept the author's massive merge. Giant projects like the Linux kernel just don't work that…
To elaborate on why you can typically avoid derivative control for thermodynamic processes: There's no natural resonance in the system caused by energy-storing elements. For instance, if you drop a cold egg into a pot…
