Scrum includes retrospectives - they exist to change the process. If the process cannot be changed then it's not scrum. OTOH when you're starting out it takes some time to find out what works and a scrum master will probably want

We manage short standups most of the time - why didn't you tell the manager to shut down after 15 minutes? All these agile processes require the team to take some responsibility and have some courage.

So it wasn't scrum. It was just bullshitters using the word and doing what they wanted to do anyhow.

by t43562 3y ago
scrum masters should only bother you at the standup. They also shouldn't add requirements. So .... the one you were dealing with was just an average bullshitter pretending to do scrum.

What's the difference between what you're talking about and scrum? IMO the conferences are really there because the way companies think about projects and plans is not agile and it's difficult to marry up the higher level dec

Lots of people claim to be Christians but don't forgive, turn the other cheek or love their neighbors because it doesn't suit them to but it does suit them to claim to be Christian. So any successfully communicated methodology is

I don't think the Germans now accept your reasoning and your specific story doesn't really provide support for it. Countries have laws againt hate speech and libel because we realise that these are evil forms of "free speech&

I think it might be impossible to avoid having to make moral judgements. You might wish to believe that you free society can exist without any morality but I don't think it can really. So what is "ok" and what is "not ok

Scrum got popular but it doesn't fit in with most companies imperatives so the management modify or purposely fail to understand it or don't train anyone. It's really about teams adjusting themselves to whatever behaviou

South Africa has had very serious crime problems for a long time. It's not a 3rd world thing because it's richer than its neighbors but seems to have far more violent crime. In general though, when the government is corrupt, suffe

If it was too successful on its own it wouldn't be in all those devices. Whether or not it has the best chip designers its ARM that has changed the world. It seems a bit like Linux to me - you could say Linus Torvalds is disappointing

No but hype tends to suggest that a tool can do everything and being bombarded by that kind of propaganda is annoying.

Those women might be disappointed when they meet you, the jobs must have interviewed you in person and decided that you were sutiable anyhow despite your cover letter. ...and what is the point of creating stories if your thought hasn't

Or it could be hype. Hype is a very very common human activity where people repeatedly try to sell you on something because they see it as the next bandwagon.

If we fully understood what people's brains do then we'd be able to say if AI had reached that point or gone further.

I feel very tired of the whole LLM discussion now. It's going to put everyone out of work or it's going to be a helpful tool. I find it currently lacking somehow but what's the point of saying that to one of the enthusiasts?

A lot of those articles talk about Russian gas - a perfect reason to go for renewables harder and spend more - it's an investment in the future.

Oh, I see, you're trying to excuse the Chinese for being arseholes now because someone else did something in the past. It's irrelevant because it's not in the interests of the rest of the world for Taiwan to be gobbled up.

Steal from Taiwan. And once you control a resource you can control access to it based on who pleases you the most.

Not less critical but you see if they steal something the rest of the world needs then they can hold the world to ransom but if the rest of the world has alternatives then they can't. That has to change their calculations about when an

To make Taiwan less critical makes it less attractive as a target - China won't be able to damage the US so much by taking Taiwan. It will be harder for China to force other people to accept their action.

Poor nations are exceptionally good at destabilising themselves - as a person from one of them. The idea that they are getting mistreated would be music to the ears of our ruling elites - perhaps hinting that they might get their "virt

That prevents a person from taking their next bigger risk e.g. building a factory and hoping that the products it makes will sell. If we only had better streets we'd be a bit like the Romans - bogged down trying to satisfy everyone w

How many of us will be remembered like this? Not too many, I imagine. I'm teaching my 8 year old daughter to use VIM. As an African, what he has done puts me to shame.

The point of people being wealthy is that they get to take risks based on their judgement and we hope that benefits everyone. Without a reward nobody will take risks. Governments don't take political risks so you cannot expect them

NULL terminated strings are a fact of life in many cases and C just needs lots of string functions to cater for different use cases. e.g. usually for me truncation is worse than crashing (corrupted data basically). When I read arguments t
