I'm a fan of using the right tool for the job. If you can't use git effectively or it just doesn't fit into your workflow, then, hey, don't use it. But, having used both, I'd actually like to know... Why are these t

No this is not unique. Tons of services exploit this loophole (free conference calls, adult chat lines, phone-to-ip services, to name a few). It is enabled by "common carrier" laws, meaning a phone carrier is legally obligated to

The triads are at a higher level. Once you get down to individual contributors there is typically a high ratio of Dev and QA to PM (maybe 1-2 PMs per team of 15), and usually a couple more Devs than QA. I'm not sure how widely those ra
