Yes, because Agile clearly means "don't design anything" and "have no direction".

Yep. Had a "lead" developer tell me, "Your conditions are backwards." -_-

Agreed, same experience on my ThinkPad R500.

Pricing is a signal. Lowering the price of tickets to "lower budget" movies would be a pretty effective way to make sure fewer people watch them. Of course, this article seems to assume that the cost of producing a movie is directly proport

I think you might be missing the point of the article. It's tips for converting a Subversion repository to a Git repository.

This isn't really new technology. My brother works for a company that makes computers that go in forklifts that register collisions / mileage / other stats and generate reports based on who was driving / etc. They're used for driver accou

Interstitial pages with ads on websites are annoying enough, but this is taking it to a new level. When I (and I'd suspect lots of others) click a link, I'd like to be taken directly to that resource. In fact, a day or two back there was a

It seems you work on Kiw.is so I'm not sure if I should even try to articulate why I find your product to be annoying.

Yay link-jacking? I'll send a memo to my squad of social media engine search optimization experts.

Yeah it was really annoying to have the old "inspect" link replaced by a flashlight icon and the next day replaced with a "mouse cursor over a box" icon. o_0

Reading a bunch of these answers I think, "It must be nice to live in a place where you don't need a car to get anywhere ". In Texas (specifically DFW), commuting means sitting in traffic for 30 minutes to an hour.

How about his mentions of evidence to the contrary being backed up by actual evidence to the contrary. Or the speculative weaker points like, "TDD wrecks time estimates", "inefficiency", and "scope creep". Heck, in "Tests solve problems t

Translation: "I don't understand TDD." I like how he links to the Wikipedia article on Horse Tack, but doesn't bother to back up any of his claims.

It's a Laconica install. This is pointless. It's like saying, "Checkout my StackOverflow clone" and then linking to a phpBB install.

I agree. I've been using a Thinkpad for a while and now trackpads just feel icky. I actually looked to see if they exist. They do, but they're like 100 US$ and have a bulky trackpad attached on the bottom.

Agreed. And I think there's a benefit to having an open source project versus a handful of certifications. An open source project will generally only be looked at by people with the skill to evaluate actual code. Anyone in HR can evaluate a
