I think the nuance here is that I mean there is no true free action of choosing. The choice is always controlled by something outside of my control, either a random chance or determined by my memories/experiences/biases etc. I&#x2

Agile should never be applied 'by the book', every team is different. Agile works best when it is...actually agile. Moulding and fitting a team of varied individuals with enough compromises to make them all work together better. T

It's Reddit, people like to farm karma points to show off. They fabricate stories and posts in order to get a kick from the response. Sometimes, on occasion, it then becomes a popular account with followers that can be monetised too. B

You may not be unaware of this but Elo ranking systems are used in a lot of online multiplayer games these days, typically referred to as 'MMR' (multiplayer matchmaking rankings). And, at least in that context, they're not re

I want more features from GA4, not fewer! But I'm certain this is exactly what some people want from its confusing UI. So kudos to you for building it. Looks nice.
