There are many templates for failure, and the funny part is that often the people who contribute to the failure are the ones complaining. But in all cases a good scrum master should be picking up on this and fixing it. Most typical one is t

Why do you think the daily stand-up should be the days starting point? That's not a requirement and not at all practical. If you have to skip a stand-up some day because of a dentist appointment or other meeting, do you just not do any

Have you forgotten to have retrospectives? Yes, the first 2 weeks, the stand-ups is badly place, then the team talks about it and chose a different time. (Remember the team decides the time, not management or Product owner), management only

Apple doesn't have a monopoly, people are free to chose other platforms. You can't claim harm on end-users due to higher costs when literally every single costumer of Apple chose their product and ecosystem despite it being more e

I'm sorry if this offends. But a complete laypersons* perspective from someone who hasn't been keeping up on the current perl ecosystem is this: perl6 failed to the degree that perl 5 became perl 7, while all the perl programmers

If I take 10$ to take some asset, and then later sell it for 20$ my return is 30$ and my investment was -10$, so my ROI comes out as -300% which betrays what's going on. So even with ROI, negative numbers throws a wrench in the machine

Politically correct answer: No, they are completely independent just like all other fundraising activities. Reality: Yes, Oracle is openly bribing the president to get the administration to push their agenda.
