"Agile adoption" fails largely due to the fact that "Agile" isn't a "thing" which can be adopted in the first place. So anybody saying "We're adopting Agile" has lost the game before they even start. If you want to "go Agile" you have to understand what Agile is... and more importantly, what it isn't.

Agile is not a methodology. Agile is not very prescriptive. Agile is not Scrum Masters, standups, Jira, velocity, story points, etc. Although some or all of those things may, optionally, be used as part of implementing an Agile methodology.

Note the distinction between "Agile" and "an Agile methodology". This is crucial. There is no such thing as "Agile" in and of itself, but there are many methodologies that fall under the general banner of "Agile". Scrum, XP, Crystal, AgileUP, SaFE, etc., come to mind.

So if you're going to "go Agile", one of the first things you need to do is to figure out which Agile. And that means spending some time doing research, understanding the pros and cons of the various methodologies, and then investing the time to actually get good at the one you choose. Or you can invent your own methodology which reflects the spirit of the Agile Manifesto, but I've generally found that companies that "roll their own", or who don't bother with this whole exercise at all, just wind up implementing a shitty, half-assed version of Scrum, with all of lingo and ceremony, plus maybe a little bit of extra crap tacked on from FSM-knows-where, but with none of the understanding of the actual principles, and how this is supposed to help anybody... other than some vague cargo-cult'ish idea that "Agile makes everything better. Now give me my coconut shell helmet."

460-375BCE - Greece - Hippocrates on people who couldn't focus but were good at reacting to events - attributed to an "overbalance of fire over water"

1693 - Scotland - John Locke - in "Some Thoughts Concerning Education" - discussed a class of students who "could not keep their mind from straying"

1798 - Scotland - Sir Alexander Crichton - "The Disease of Attention"

1800s - Various - Medical Textbooks of the time - referred variously to conditions “nervous child”, “hypermetamorphosis”, “mental instability”, “unstable nervous system” and “simple hyperexcitability”

1902 - England - Sir George Frederick - describing the same systems named the condition an “abnormal defect of moral control”

1937 - USA - Charles Bradley - first began experimenting with prescribing benzedrine (an amphetamine) to Children initially for headache and noted that it greatly improved focus in those who previously had not demonstrated that ability, but could not explain why stimulant drugs could induce a calming effect.

1944 - Switzerland - Ritalin developed (Methylphenidate, Rita from his wife) as a safer replacement to benzedrine

1968 - USA - DSM-II lists these by now well recognised and medicated symptoms as "hyperkinetic reaction of childhood"

1980 - USA - DSM-III - changed the name to "Attention Defecit Disorder"

1987 - USA - DSM-III (3rd edition) - changed the name to "Attention Defecit Hyperactivity Disorder"

1994 - USA - DSM-IV - refined the disorder into it's currently diagnosed form with 3 different types of ADHD, namely: Inattentive Type, Hyperactive/Impulsive Type and combined type.

2013 - USA - DSM-5 - refined to acknowledge that the 3 different types are not in fact types, rather presentations that can change over the course of an individual's life.

>By the end of the day, "philosopher" is nothing more than a more fashionable word for "writer". And like "film critic", "philosopher" is an unprotected, self-appointed title.

Scientists also write; writing isn't the point, the point is logically consistent arguments (or arguments for a particular logical system), which philosophers attempt to make. "Mathematician", "programmer", "logician" and in many cases "engineer" are also self-appointed titles, yet in both cases we must say that a mathematician and engineer's work could reasonably be said to be confined to writing and designing. The fact of the matter is that logical claims do not require "proof", but the relevance of theories to the world as observed by science does require support from the scientific method. This is why philosophers strive for their systems to be consistent with the current state of science (whether physics, biology or sociology, etc.)

>And as you correctly say: this concept predates science and enlightenment.

It not only predates, it is ontologically prior, meaning that for science to be carried out, there must be a justified philosophy of science for it to have any basis. For instance, we might ask, "why falsification?" - a question that, if unanswered, renders science without a logical basis. You may reply that science is useful whether or not we have a logical basis, but usefulness in turn requires some justification; after all, many things are useful but we do not carry them out for other reasons.

>In the case of traditional philosophy of science there is even a contradiction in terms: the statements are dogmas that defy falsification

This is not a contradiction in terms, since most philosophers of science are not pure falsificationists. Falsification is not the only way to gain knowledge generally (logical arguments and mathematics are unfalsifiable; even the statement "science must be falsifiable" is unfalsifiable), but after Popper there are very few pure falsificationists in the philosophy of science, for various good reasons[0].

>So according to the own criteria of the philosophy of science of that time they do not differ from religion.

Philosophy of science is very much the equivalent of atheism, or agnosticism when we're talking about dogmas such as falsificationism or positivism or any other popular way of doing science that is unjustified.

Are you just talking about being able to make a lane change within the roundabout? Because the outer lane cannot take the third exit in your example (at least according to the lane markings), they must exit before then.

In Ontario anyway, the general rule for roundabouts is that you aren't allowed to make lane changes, though they still use a dotted line so as to not make you think you're prevented from entering the inner lane.

Edit: I see it now. Took me a while to see how the inside lane stops at two spots. Interesting design. It ensures that you're only crossing traffic when entering, not when leaving, at the expense of it being less flexible (note how in two directions the right lane cannot be used to go straight through, so signing clearly in advance is much more important).
An advice I once got from psychoanalyst I had been consulting for a few month: do not identify yourself to your pathology.

There are two faces of the coin once your condition is named:

- it can be a relief: I have that, what can I do to improve it

- it can be an impairment: if it gets all your focus

I think of this because you put capital letters to "Anxiety Issues", and also because the diagnostic sounds pretty vague. Be aware that many people have psychological, psychiatric or other medical conditions, and still live what looks like a normal life to others. So take care of yourself, but do not let those two words have all the focus.
> Comparing systyemd with init scripts is disingenious

You're not really explaining why I think. For systemd you have configuration files. It's very easy. At a last resort you can write a shell script for some special handling. With init scripts it's totally false that "you only need to know the script language". The way those init scripts are written differs across distributions. Meaning, small differences between e.g. Fedora, openSuse, Mageia, etc. Bigger differences for Debian.

I don't get why you call a configuration file a language.

> A skilled Linux user will be quite familiar with the later anyway.

That's what I mean, the system unit files are way easier. There's pretty much options for loads of things. Much easier than doing that stuff yourself in each and every shell script.

Loads of things which is an easy option in systemd I wouldn't know how to easily to in a shell script (e.g. ProtectHome).

In my experience having lost and kept off half my body weight, and I'm sure my family would agree with me on this, effective weight loss basically requires an eating disorder.

I don't know how much weight you lost, but I can't imagine it was all that much if all you had to do was cut out sugar and booze, unless that was the majority of your caloric intake.
The author states that in an ideal "web of documents", we would have (1) only GET requests, (2) no (java)scripts, and (3) no cookies. While I agree with (1) and (3), I disagree completely with (2).

Having Javascript enables amazing things like interactive documents. For example I would consider [1] a document, despite the fact that there is Javascript running. What a wonderful way to interact with and get a better understanding of a Voronoi diagram! Or how about the wonderful interactive demonstrations of graph searches at [2]? To me, things like this are part of what makes the web platform fantastic.

Earlier in the article, the author writes:

"A document is stateless. It exists in and of itself; it is its own microcosm. It may be experienced interactively, but only insofar as it enables the experiencer to focus their attention on the part of their own choosing; the potential state of that interaction is external to the document, not part of itself."

I think that the two interactive javascript-powered articles I linked comply with this. Ruling out scripts entirely is too heavy-handed - perhaps a nice middle ground can be found somewhere.

Yes! I believe "the people", in this case the users who are getting abused/exploited/disrespected, need to be more attentive and vocal about borderline illegal behavior of corporations, tech companies included.

It's shame how Facebook, Amazon, Google, Microsoft, et al have behaved in recent years, patronizing and manipulating users on a mass scale with a brazenness and near impunity. (OK, Microsoft deserves some love with VS Code, TypeScript, and other open source goodness, but..)

I'm with your optimistic comment that the pendulum is swinging back. These companies have lost sight of users, what "customer care" means, and they're leaving an increasing gap in the market for more humane service and technology.
Now Quicken and Intuit are different companies. I am assuming Mint went with Quicken. I use Quicken and was hoping that would result in a better product, still on the fence. However, they are definitely focused on Quicken and not Mint.
That depends. In Barcelona prices peaked around 2008. Then went down at around the same rate that they went up at. Until ~2013 Then went up again. Is that considered a crash?
The Flash requirement in 2020 kills me. Account synch gets stuck and never finishes. Correctly categorizing transactions usually involves pulling up my bank website to see how the charge was really originally described. Mint pulls some info on this but it's often truncated, so you can try to set up rules but there are often collisions because of that bad incoming data.

Somehow in an era where personal data on spending habits is supposed to be extremely valuable, they can't afford to fix the product, and this is the best we can get.
It's limited by the FAA to a maximum of 100Wh. The Pinebook Pro has a battery of 10000mAh at 3.8V (I think), so 38Wh. There is plenty of room for a bigger battery.

Chicago has those as well. I believe you're supposed to go all the way around the central circle when making a left turn, but nobody does.

My favorite roundabout ever is a large traditional one with only two entrances/exits. Reminds me of a lot of codebases I've encountered.
Did we have to read it? A scientist saying scientists can or can't do this doesn't mean much...

Scientists discovered ozone depletion.
Scientists discovered what caused depletion.
Scientists pushed for a political resolution.

Scientists and politicians can be both scientific and political. In fact, our system is better when they're both.

I love Lawrence's books and some of his speeches. I just don't buy this kind of stuff.

Also, "publicity stunt" is "in the eye of the beholder". Not quantitative and unscientific so meh. If doomsday clocks can get people to take action, they should.

If it was as easy as education - we wouldn't need this post or Lawrence saying what he did. We have a society that shuns education as elitism, anti-capitalist, socilist or whatever they believe.
The problem is in statement:

"reward yourself"

How does that work? Any kind of this short term reward can turn into "short term reward sensitivity", "impulsiveness" and other problems also associated with procrastination in the same article.

Plus you're literally trying to deceive yourself which never works long term.

I didn't know the smaller radiators existed at all TBH. Makes sense though since they're on the same structure as the solar panels it would ensure those are basically always in the shade more or less since the solar panels will want to align perpendicular to the sun. As for the solar panels they can rotate each individually around it's long axis and the group of 4 at each end as a unit around the long axis of the truss.
Maybe the aerial imagery is out of date? It looks like a regular intersection on the satellite view, but Google Maps has it marked as a roundabout.

I don't understand what you're getting at here and I feel like it's missing the broader point I'm making anyways.

I'm by no means an expert in ML, but my understanding is there's some code that is run to train the modal. I meant that by "training code". My regrets if my terminology was unclear.

Your comments echo my experience in every detail. I, too, did not meet a shadow of my potential until I received an ADD diagnosis as an adult.

After taking Adderall for the first time, I immediately began keeping a systematic journal of notes (and creating other structures for myself). I remember walking to a store to get the notebook the very day I took the first pill — it was like a revelation.

Over the years since that day, I have transitioned to different ADD medications, but have found that I am not able to adhere to my structures when I am off medication. This is a non-trivial insight, as much well-meaning ADD advice is at the level of “create and follow structures” —- it is precisely this that medication allows me to do.

The offense is when we drug kids for not wanting to sit at a desk, or not wanting to concentrate on something they're not interested in, or not performing under a certain teaching/learning model.

We put kids (and then adults) in the wrong environment and "fix" them with drugs so they conform to it.

Maybe we should change the environment or model instead. Different people thrive in different environments. A good thing, not something to be suppressed. It's a failure of our current time that we try to force "neuroatypical" into typical, instead of embracing this neurodiversity.

The investment view of Mint is close to useless for many reasons (Adobe being one of the smallest). It is incapable to readjusting the cost basis when you buy more of an asset at a different time. It also doesn't seem to understand when you add money to account. You end up with bizarre numbers saying you made 50% in a year because you added money later, or saying you are down 50% because you moved money out of the account. Mint is good at a few things, in particular Net Worth tracking and getting a 360 degree view of your financial assets. I've used it for nearly 10 years and I can see my net worth over the entire time period with very good accuracy, which is invaluable to me.
