So outside this individual case, how open or public should these types of decisions be made? For transparency, shouldn't people that are part of the community know when these actions/accusations take place and what/how decisions were made?

That's what Uncle Bob is insinuating, but is that what really happened? I can't even see the tweet he's talking about. He mentions an @KubeCon twitter account. That account is not associated w/ the event.

Why would you let yourself get so stuck in the minutia of SCRUM? Use the parts you need and not the parts that work against you.

The value usually listed first in the agile manifesto is "Individuals and interactions over processes and tools".

Simple networking knowledge is a go-to interview question for me. If you don't understand the basics of what happens from the time you enter a request in the browser to when the page fully renders you won't be very good at troubleshooting some basic issues. (Can't reach the server. Some content is missing. Is it timing out. How many requests are generated by a page.)

That's exactly my use case. I'm targeting 1800 calories of intake per day. I do 1 for breakfast and 1 for lunch. My wife and I then have a balanced dinner. This gives me structure and a plan for each workday. Previously, I would pickup something (probably not healthy and over 400 calories) on the fly for each meal.

Static sites for large institutions is asking for trouble down the road. Think about universities with hundreds of content providers. They'll put anything and everything on their sites with no regard for the standard layout/design. CMS gives them design choices, and enforces standards so you can update/refresh the look and feel in the future.

Wouldn't applying some of your extra productivity to an open-source project be more beneficial to more people? Instead of having a difficult work environment with your co-workers you would have learned, created great stuff and been recognized by peers.

The preview pictures look very nice. From a resources perspective where did you get the recipes?

I've considered making apps that require reference material like a recipe. The problem I've seen is taking the material and charging without having created the information. I imagine a lot of stuff is general public knowledge, but how do you keep safe from someone claiming you stole their recipe?

Recently started looking for freelance opportunities. My day job is as a web developer for a state university.

I like to program whenever I'm not tired. I usually listen to music with headphones on. This helps to block out other people in the office or the tv/other people at home. Programming when tired leads to errors and forgetting where you left off when you have to stop or take a break. I rarely program outside. The glare on the screen is too much to deal with.

Incredibly slow download right now. The Lion onslaught must be in full effect. I pulled Lion in about 15 minutes this morning. Xcode is estimated at about an hour and a half.

A file is a file whether you call it data glob, group of bits, or Beelzebubba.

Why did you low ball yourself from the start? If 76 is the average in your area, you should have asked for 79. State that the average is 76 (site your source) and ask for 70 again.

So many little thing in life cause so much unnecessary stress. Oxford comma, one or two spaces after a period, and three or four space indentation in code.

Getting companies to develop software for your OS would be very hard. Your OS would have to have hooks into the outside software to know what the program wanted to do with a file handle. Create a new mp3? Change the info of the mp3? Add album art? Play the Mp3? Delete it? What about future features that haven't been thought of yet?

The outside company just wants the ability to access a file. What it does with it is not up to the OS.
