The premise of Mob Programming[1] seems ludicrous to me. I can't imagine a scenario where this would be efficient in creating a product. The irony of the concept is that it is sold along "lean and agile principles". Has anyon

Why is there no talk about the dramatic increase in the supply of workers over the last 40 years? Globalization has brought millions out of poverty and those people are now competing with Americans when they wouldn't before. It makes s

We should follow the lead of Sweden, Germany, Japan, and Great Britain and begin to privatize the US postal service. There is no need for the Federal Government to control pricing, delivery, or market entry for postal services.
