in my team we don't micromanage, however I agree that some scrum events can be adjusted a bit. For example the sprint reviews don't make much sense if you can deliver any time you want, and we do. It's probably just a way to

We do it at my company/in my team. It's OK, come on, it's not that bad. It's also a way for our team to get together and talk BS, have a little bit of fun etc.

Interesting, I had a very similar experience in the past. I think we just were part of a software factory that is not necessarily bad, it's just a different approach to work. It's much more convenient for a manager to just apply &

The 3 times rule is good, I also apply it quite often, although it's not always an easy sell.

I think I misread your comment :) I think that another way to prevent it is by asking yourself if the other person will find it funny. That's a general advice not just specific to firing/leaving a company.

How is it funny that your manager tells you as a joke that he is gonna fire you? The truth it: neither of them is a joke. It's just pure BS that comes either out of sheer and innocent incompetence or stupidity.

I recommend "learning microservices 2nd edition". The first edition is good, the second gives more practical advice.

I am not the author of the original message, however, I also recommend "Building microservices 2nd edition" if you are trying to answer such questions

I agree, it's just that you're not the average user. I am also surprised to see the spam folder surprisingly empty all the time, almost as if my email addresses were unknown to the world (which I am pretty sure they are not). The

Probably it's more convenient for them to trust X big players rather than checking one by one. And somehow an empty spam folder looks better than a full one, as it gives the user the feeling that the service itself doesn't receive

I agree with this comment. Sleep is ridiculously underestimated in our society due to the fact that it's perceived as a waste of time, while you could do something else more "productive" or "fun" - binge watching, l

I just saw the product. My reaction was "it's freaking brilliant". Great work, guys!

I disagree. There are more and more services providing logistics, delivery, payments, etc. And they are quite reliable. Just 2 years ago I was entirely relying on Amazon as a good ecommerce. As of 2020/2021, to be honest, there is near

Well, it's something that is slowly backfiring. It's under the eyes of everyone, and not enforcing such policy will only make it even worse for Amazon itself that eventually will end up selling only non-branded products. Finally i

Because we know how something can be abused until there is another way to abuse it. It's an endless way to abuse it, where a PM with an even more cynical goal will introduce an even more disgusting way to monetize a product. Finally, i

I am not sure if these are the only options we have here. Did you see the list of commits that this bunch of guys sneaked in? It's quite big, it's not just 1-2. A smart attacker could have done 1 commit per month and would have be

This is for me unrelated and even a little bit minimizing the issue here. The purpose of the research was probably to show how easy it is to manipulate the Linux kernel in bad faith. And they did it. What are they gonna do about it beside

by mk89 6y ago
So you are just fine knowing that any random guy can sneak any code in the Linux kernel? Honestly, I was personally expecting a higher level of review and attention to such things, considering how used the product is. I don't want to l

Bug bounties are a different beast. Here we are talking about a bunch of guys who deliberately put stuff into your next kernel release because they come from an important university, or whatever other reason. One of the reviewers in the thr

I have the same questions. So far we have focused on how bad these "guys" are. Sure, they could have done it differently, etc. However, they proved a big point: how "easy" it is to manipulate the most used piece of softw

You can achieve that with a tool like Kustomize maybe. Or docker-compose.
