The use of “full-stack” was the first thing I noticed. Everyone, please stop using that term. I’m pretty sure, with a high degree of certainty, you don’t know what it means. If you do, there’s a merit badge waiting for you. And can we please stop using “hallucinations” to describe output. Yes, it may look like your tool dropped acid, but that’s not what it is.
- catchnear4321 3y agofull-stack means the ic can take any ticket. do the details beyond that matter?
- adfm 3y agoBuy the ticket, take the ride…
- catchnear4321 3y agofirst you have to be told what you’re buying next. (before that you were given the chance to object to the estimate, but not to change it.)
- adfm 3y agoNo sympathy for the Devil, keep that in mind.
- falcor84 3y agoWell, quantity has a quality all its own. Extending the sprint to wait for the person to complete their PhD as part of the "research" part of the ticket would not quite be Scrum.
- Nevermark 3y ago> can we please stop using “hallucinations” to describe output. Right. A better word is confabulation. I.e. pseudomemories, a replacement of a gap in information with false information that is not recognized as such.
- dekhn 3y agoRob Pike once said that he was "full-stack": when he worked on Voyager, he understood the system from quantum mechanics to flight software (https://hachyderm.io/@robpike/109763603394772405 https://hachyderm.io/@robpike/109763603394772405)
- adfm 3y agoNo joke: The guy that coined the term is the same guy that made the merit badge. Enjoy looking that one up.
- pclmulqdq 3y agoI now think of the "stack" of a modern business as starting with physics and ending with making someone happy (unless you are Oracle). Full-stack engineers should then know how to connect physics to peoples' happiness.
