He is masterful, and I regularly use some of his simple dinners for my weekly rotation recipes. Like Anthony Bourdain said "if Jacques Pepin shows you how to roast a chicken, that's how you roast a chicken!"

If it is anywhere near as good as GeforceNow or Xbox Cloud Gaming, I'm definitely subscribing. It's so convenient for short, casual sessions. Once I ran GFNow using in-plane wifi to play Observation, and granted there were dropout

Especially in enterprise teams, it is a daily interrogation just for management to keep tabs on your performance. I'm fine meeting and giving status updates every few days, but honestly not every single day

You've typed exactly what I was thinking, in a far more eloquent way than I could have worded it. Reminds me of the constant battle between my high school's sys admin and those smart kids who knew all the Windows 2000 network comm

I loved the start of this film; it's an onslaught of super advanced wetware technology, cybernetics, comic book weaponry, corporate dystopia and (frankly) a little bit too much violence lol. I agree with the others comments: it might n

It certainly feels like it's going that way now: subscriptions for everything! I much prefer buying legacy/retro games from GOG to be honest.

You're absolutely right. Sorry I failed to mention that before stand up, I had actually brought it up several times in chat messages the previous night and I also created a User Story/Bug to capture it. I eventually realised that

That sounds like so much fun! Like running your own mini micro greens grocery with a raspberry pi! Please post your project here, I'd love to see the results.

In my enterprise (fr)Agile job, copious amounts of Corpspeak abound. I truly feel like "the inmates are running the asylum". For example: during one of our morning stand up, I remember bringing up a major production issue that I f

Lol omg in my last project team, no one was gathering requirements or doing analysis at all - noone! The developers asked every single day for someone to write down some basic requirements. Someone from the "product owner" team ca

I really appreciate your comment and yes, I hope I find another team soon. Or better yet, hopefully I'll be replaced by a script (like an AWS lambda or an Azure function), ánd then I'll have all day to rant on HN. Beware! lol :-]

That's so true, and why should one try to estimate non-trival work that we haven't done before, and make those estimates deadlines? Or worse, a higher management sets a deadline because of something (for example: launch advertisin

I'm happy to provide whatever estimates are desired by the business, and I'm sure all other programmers would too. But...most of the time I'm estimating something that I haven't done before (or for a long while), so they

Yes I definitely feel that technical expertise and trust is needed in decision making for all projects. In my current team, developers don't have much influence (lol um.. I mean just me as I'm the only 100% full stack) and we hav

I like the idea Extreme Programming. Well, anything at all that is different than the status-quo would be great. Actually I never considered the theological connotations of working in an Agile project!
