Anything - even traversal. Basically, whatever combination of functions you can feed to the EP/LR/GR to achieve whatever task.

Yup, that's the one! High quality stuff.

I didn't serve in other countries than my own, but I sort of accidentally came across a Croatian Armed Forces 24-hour MR. 2 packs of orange drink powder, a 50g chocolate bar, 50g of hardtack biscuits, 3x75g (not sure if it was 75) pack

I think you mean medical care in the USA. The schemes health providers resort to over there are world-renowned.

As a member of both, no, they're really not. The information on SE is very useful but highly transient (and redundant, but at least we constantly try to rectify that). It'd be extremely more valuable if it could be condensed into

But there can't be, because mathematics is abstract and most of its fields have no intuitive physical analogies to back them up.

This is possibly the most useless piece of code I've ever ran across, in any language or context.

Right now my team are trying out only doing standups if there's important stuff to share. This leads to 1-2 standups per week for the past month. Tidbits of info which can be shared at a glance, and probably don't affect anybody&#

That article is a post-mortem with an awful lot of hindsight. Not everybody would able to ask the questions Yossi identifies in the post-mortem while the requirements are presented. Would somebody then, instead, be able to become 10x more e

Not to exclude the X factor, but presentation matters. I think vomiting exceptions, stack traces, or error codes in text makes people not care. Not just a layman, but an expert, too.

This is a recommendation I've seen in most coding guidelines I've read.

I doubt it. Expressions like this raise all sorts of red flags in code review.

by mfukar 9y ago
The only way an issue about technical debt becomes irrelevant is the debt is not there any more. I don't know how others treat an issue tracker; on my team, we go through issues at the start of every sprint and possibly re-prioritise.

by mfukar 9y ago
In no codebase or organisation I've ever worked in were comments actionable information. Some technical debt spans multiple lines, or across files, modules, etc. Issue trackers are everywhere nowadays. You've found something that

I see you're not exactly clear on the reason a SWAT team would be deemed necessary, so I guess we can stop here.

I agree, but it's not a shortcoming of the tool (no tool can fix it, anyway) as much as a shortcoming of the process.
