Fun fact:

There is a software for modelling drainage systems called SWMM (Stormwater Management Model) that has been around since 1970s (!) and is programmed in C and released as free software. Still most modern drainage and sewer research is modelled via this software and there are several companies that built a GUI for simpler usage. However the core is often still based on this nearly 50 year old software which I find amazing [edit: it has been updated since then and originally it was written in Fortran].

The model has hydraulics and hydrology capabilities [0], i.e. it can model stuff like pipe pressure but also takes infiltration of stormwater (aka "rain") into the surface into account. When using it you have to define your sewer (which is mostly a directed graph) and so called catchments where you define which areas drain into which nodes (inlets) by defining parameters like impervious area, slope, etc. You can then let it rain on your area of interest (e.g. a city) and find out which nodes get flooded at specific points in time (or hopefully not).

Companies that don't follow agile and instead, choose to pick only the subset of agile recommendations that make sense for their culture and teams, are actually the real agile companies.

It's always struck me how the attitude of agile advocates has always been so rigid to the point of being dogmatic, thereby being the exact opposite of agile.

What has Wikileaks released that ended up being false?

EDIT: Just because you don't like what they have released, doesn't mean it is factually incorrect. It is factually correct, based on real evidence, that the United States of America has committed war crimes for which it has not prosecuted the perpetrators. It is factually correct that America has been involved in the destruction of sovereign states all over the globe.

It is factually correct that Clinton is duplicitous.

Just because you don't like these facts, doesn't mean that Wikileaks cannot be trusted.

This isn’t helped by foreign interference in every election they have.

This is social media, not a peer-reviewed journal. I don't think primary sources are necessary to justify basic numbers.

Pointing out that Pinker isn't a primary source isn't ad hominem. Bringing up that he's a psychologist and popular writer, repeatedly, is very much ad hominem. It's trying to discredit the messenger in order to dismiss the message. Don't do that, it's bad rhetoric.

Popular science writers serve an important role in disseminating ideas. As long as they're not misquoting sources, making up facts, or applying radical interpretations, there's nothing wrong with them. I don't see Pinker doing any of those things (if you disagree, be sure to source that!). And although Pinker may not be a climate scientist, he is a scientist of considerable credentials. He has taught at MIT, Stanford, and is a full professor at Harvard. In my mind, that brings a great deal of credibility to what he has to say on other scientific subjects, at least when quoting numbers.

So your arguments, as presented, provide approximately zero reason to doubt the numbers presented by the OP.
I'd love to know how he was caught. Not enough security on his phone - or old school interviews and sources?

Just to clarify.

The Agile experiences I've had that were more satisfying were actually the ones that were closer to "by the book" Scrum or Kanban.

The specific things that I've noticed get left out that make Agile miserable are:
- Story pointing goes away
- Velocity never gets calculated
- Retrospectives get removed

I think Agile shifts responsibility off of management and onto the engineers in even the best run team. PMs and management don't have to commit to hard decisions early in the development cycle because the methodology says that overcommitting early will lead to failure.

Velocity and Retrospectives are two of the best features for me.. Velocity is a check on managers over scheduling developers, and Retrospectives force everyone to look failures right in the eye and adapt. When you remove those two things Management can over schedule the team without even realizing it and no one has any data to show it. When you remove retrospectives no one gets to discuss bad parts of the process or bad parts of the planning.

That's just one part of being satisfied though.. if you're doing perfect agile and killing it but you're building a poor product that's not going to be terribly great either.

Most of the reality for me has actually been good products that were right for the market but ended up implemented pretty poorly due to failings that could somewhat be blamed on Agile.. it seems to be getting worse and worse over time in my experience. More technical debt, poorer scalability, more bugs, less QA (you could write a book on QA and Agile).

I did quite a bit of UI early in my career and moved towards back end over time. I was mostly all back end by the time Agile really took off. I am generally pretty depressed with the quality of the back end code under Agile. You get horrible MVP database schemas and awful quickie framework dependent code that is horribly inefficient and really hard to remove later.. but that path is super quick for that MVP "gotta demo" mentality. I think this stuff really kills the morale of back end developers and leads tons of people to move on.

Travelchime (YC W19) | Full-Stack Developer; Designer | San Francisco or Remote | https://travelchime.com/, https://travelchime.com/blog/jobs

Travelchime is building tools to make leisure travel easier. We're a YC W19 graduate who's looking to hire our first (non-founder) engineer and first designer.

We believe that travel makes us and the world better, and are trying to lower the bar to travel by bringing together all the information you need to travel in the best tool to organize your plans. Our product so far is a Google Docs for planning travel and sharing recommendations.

We’re an engineering and product-heavy team. A typical week’s work involves talking to users, prioritizing tasks on a kanban, designing on Figma, and building and shipping continuously. Harry and I have worked at Stripe, McKinsey, and Google and studied Computer Science at Yale. We've built profitable travel businesses in the past, and at Travelchime, we try to take the best parts of each of the our past workplaces and bring them together.

We believe in work-life balance. We work regular hours, take time off as a team to eat lunch together (and even cook!), exercise, and enjoy time with friends and family. We love travel and believe it rejuvenates us and makes us better people, and have quarterly travel offsites where the goal is to just enjoy visiting a new place and use the tools we’ve built.

If you enjoy travel, and would love to make it easier for the rest of the world to do it, send us a note at founders@travelchime.com! We’d love for you to join our team.

This is a very whistleblow-y article. Sensible commenters here correctly point out that a 3rd party vendor shouldn't be sending messages like that, it was unprofessional and ultimately pointless. But the point of the article and subsequent community backlash is the same old self-servicing trope that linux gamers seem to love: "We're here, we're important, we spend money, you are stupid to ignore us!"

It's the same thing every time and it's getting old.
Ray Bradbury – Fahrenheit 451 E Kitap Indir – www.ekitapindir.tk
No. A billionaire will fundamentally employ thousands of people. At least one of those thousands will be a crook. It is statistically impossible to find a large enough organization without some crime occurring. Perfect controls and checks-and-balances are impossible (and not necessarily even desirable).

Even if, hypothetically, no crime were to occur, with enough customers and employees, at least a few will be disgruntled, and willing to lie, exaggerate, delude themselves, or misunderstand what's happening.

The result is that expose hit pieces are easy enough to craft against anyone powerful enough. The key question is always about how common improper behavior is, who knows about it, under what cultural standards it is considered improper, etc.

I'm not trying to undermine the underlying point: Most people who got very rich engaged in at least some corruption to do it. But a key word there is 'most.' Virtually all are possible to publicly discredit, and it's important to read such pieces carefully.
> No one ever wants to change and no matter how nicely you put things they’ll always feel attacked.

Precisely. As another example, when people claim that progress pics are "fatshaming", it's pretty obvious that the problem isn't with the information or how it's presented, it's with the person feeling ashamed, which they rightfully are. These people should self-reflect upon why they feel ashamed instead of throwing a tantrum and playing the victim.
Absolutely the best overview I've seen yet of "the Moon situation", with a fully sufficient range of the most salient facts well described-- in addition to plenty of poetic trivia garnish I never knew about. Anybody who isn't anticipating some aspect of this does not fully understand one of the most fundamental human drives.

Everyone who has an iota of interest should read this, I plan to share it widely. I also highly recommend the Apollo 11 documentary to anyone who hasn't seen it.

Simyacı – Ölümsüz Nicholas Flamel'in Sırları E Kitap Indir – www.ekitapindir.tk
Melting permafrost is the thing that terrifies me. For a long time now scientists have been warning of the potential bomb lurking there. But, my understanding is it hasn’t factored heavily in the IPCC reports because feedback loops have historically been difficult to quantify. Anecdotally, the trend seems to be that when it comes to Climate Change, things rarely break in our favor and those “worst case scenarios” seem to be coming up frequently.

I’m a pragmatist, I remain optimistic (foolishly, perhaps), but I think it’s fair to say that society isn’t sufficiently grappling with the potential catastrophe on the horizon. In particular I don’t think enough attention is given to the possibility of climate dynamics at some point rapidly flipping to some new normal.

LGPL (and not GPL) specifically means that you do not need to release your application under an open license.

Small parts of Qt for specialized applications are under GPL, and abiding LGPL in embedded hardware is hard, but for normal desktop software it's not a problem.
