Uh, at 5-25 people you don't need process for that. You know everyone by name and know the informal hierarchy of the team.

You ask Joe and show it to the team they say cool, let's use it.

At the pub five of you decide you will write the new module in rust because it's fun. Bam.

Or just start use it and explain it to whomever concerned if you are that high up.

I wrote them down and create a very badly described ticket in the backlog after the meeting, eg title only.

I learned that if i forget something it doesn't really matter - if it's important it will resurface and if it won't then it was not important enough.

Advent of code is always fun.

You meant vim, right? I know, a common typo.

I second the recommendation. Very good clear no-bullshit book about the topic.

Lot of things are mentioned that are valid but personally those are secondary I would pay for a good community of a specific topic I'm interested in where the content to noise ratio is great and the community is friendly and helpful.

I am amazed by how beautiful and clear the first answer is.

How nice, uncondemning it is, how it really gives the possibility of the OP is truly clueless that he's in the wrong.

To sum up, you don't have kids because you want to save them from... life.

Uhh are you okay?

And the entire idea of species is kind of fraught because once we were all microorganisms?

No. Invasive species are relatively new to the land, they disturbe the existing equilibrium often without any natural predators to hunt them and they wreak havoc.

Like wild boars in USA. Like rabbits in Australia. Like humans on earth.

Barren islands evolved for tens of millions of years in isolation were all over the world until humans built ships.

Networking is quite different in my book. There is no event - it's a call to an old friend who now works as a VP at a different company. It's a lunch with another pm on the last project. It's a beer with ex colleges to see who found greener pastures. It's a coffee with someone I don't have 1 on 1 anymore but we do it anyway because he catched a big carp and want to show the pictures.

If you need a new job you can reach out to them and they will help. If you have plan you have people to talk about and maybe find someone willing to help.

Java is 28 year old, Typescript is 10.

Give it another 20 year and similar patterns will emerge as the language matures.

This answer is dripping with sarcasm and the AI doesn't even know.

Beautiful.

Exactly! Most will have a name given by its owner, a pet of sort but much more in function. You will need to reach a certain age to get it, the beginning of adulthood.

People will mourn them and there will be real world AI cementeries.

Diffie Whitfield envisioned an internet highway where every computer is connected to every other in 1974 and then went on to find out how to do that communication in secure channels.[1]

I think my vision is quite tame and deductible from the current situation compared to his.

[1] according to Singh Simon: The Code Book

I'll tell you my vision which is kinda long term - like 20-30 year from now on. I think the future is that everyone will have their own personalized AI assistant on their phone. Internet as it is will be mostly useless because only robots will be able to wade through the generated shit ocean and the next generation will see it as the current see the TV - unimportant old boring low-entropy data which is not entertaining anymore.

There will be a paradigm shift where our-customers-are-ai apps appear and most stuff will need to have an API which makes AI able to connect and use those services effortlessly and without error because who don't want to tell his assistant to "send 5$ to Jill for the pizza"? There will be money in base AI models you can choose(subscribe to) and what it can and cannot do for you. It will still be riddled with ads and now it's your personal assistant who can push any agenda to you.

Operation systems will become a layer under the assistant ai.

You will still talk on/to your phone.

I guess free software will be more important than ever.

Free ai assistants will be available and computing power will be there to run it on your phone but all the shit we've seen with open Vs closed source, Linux Vs Windows, walled gardens whatnot will go another round this time with free open public training data assistants Vs closed-but-oh-so-less-clumsy ones.

Security problem will be plenty like how to hide your AI assistant custom fingerprint? Authentication and authorization system for AI? How much someone else personal assistant worth? How to steal or defend it?

That is a big if that can be easily broken by a new guy who don't know the rules or if the pace is fast enough that you cannot review everything.

If the codebase is different you can force the separation not just ask nicely to keep the code well modularized.

Yes. Fundamentals did not change.

Thanks for the citation, interesting, especially as this book is on my to-read-list.

On the other hand eeh... nice words but I don't buy this. Even animal groups has leaders and leaving/abandoning community probably meant death, not freedom. There is a reason why we think so much about what others think about us. One of the greatest survivor skill is to be able to fit into your community.

It's been a long time I used Qt but I have good memories of the framework. It supports OpenGL(amongst others)

I only found one useful productivity measurement and it was in Camille Fournier - the managers path.

She states that the only useful measurement is how fast can a code change get to production.

> The concept of anyone being the boss of anyone else is extremely recent.

My guts tell me it's as old as humankind. Citation?

In Kannan there are no reports(daily standup) accountability (demos) and no deadlines(sprints).

If you have a team with low morale or motivation you need these tools to monitor what's up.

If you have higher ups that needs constant information about what's up scrum also gives you more information by just following it's practices.

Kannan is great when the team moves on its own and with a good manager who calibrates the aim from time to time.

> conclusion: The available evidence does not show the squatting position during childbirth to be beneficial. As there is no evidence for or against squatting, women should be able to choose the position they prefer.

I would also recommend to let the soon-to-be-mother decide how she feels about squatting? You don't read evidence what's the best positure for shitting when you need to shit like hell. I promise you will take up the best positure for your shit.

Also there is more to childbirth than a new life as there is an already existing life it very much affect - the one who's giving birth and I see no such consideration in the linked evidence.

I guess it's different for everyone but by anecdote on all four or squatting, preferably in bath.

Yep, women body is able to give birth.

I agree, mortality was most likely higher because when complications happen, modern intervention is much better, cleaner, we know about bacteria and other stuff exists and stuff like that.. but that's only like 10% of the cases(anecdote).

About your wife: if you take a woman in labour from home to an unknown place where strangers stare at her vagina and put stuff in guess what happens? Labour stops. Now you need artificial stuff to make it happen regardless - drugs, breaking sac, more drugs, suction cup, whatnot...

My problem is that we butcher the 90% of cases where there is no need for any intervention to the process.

It's not a problem if the error margin means nothing - the baby comes out between 38-42 week is all good.

It is a problem because if you run out of the pre determined terminus based on erroneous scans you will get c-section because protocol.

Of course this is a personal anecdote and may not apply to your country.

Far from last resort. How often it's used is based on location. Let me do the citation:

https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/c-section...

First is Mexico and Turkey with more than 50%! USA is 32%. Norway seems to be quite low with 16% as far as first world countries go.

Everybody is joking half sarcastically here but childbirth as a process in hospitals do have serious problems and modern day labour leaves deep mental scars in most women while being one of the most important thing in their life. This is definitely a step in the wrong direction however laughable the idea is.

Do you know what is the most uncomfortable position for labour is? Yeah, layin on your back. It's just the most comfortable position for the _doctor_.

Giving birth is similar to the act of vomiting in the sense that you don't have to do anything, it happens to you when the circumstances call for it. Using this method is as bad idea as to use this method to make the centripetal forces pull the content of your stomach out.

It may happen but not for the reasons described.

I cannot describe well enough how utterly stupid this idea is...

I wonder how many times do these animated advertisement screens near roads or highways needs to be hacked in a similar way in order to make them disappear. Can they be problematic frequently enough to make the companies just get rid of them?

Wish it was as easy as installing an adblocker.

I try not to overcomlicate it so I use Notepad++. New day ==> new tab and I list everything I plan do that day, including meeting notes. If you need to weight it you can put a number after each task is done. You can create a report once every week into a nice excel sheet or in whatever your higherups preference.

The author's boasting is something I can imagine bothering some people! He definetly has a big mouth and the book beeing an american style writing doesn't help either. (especially at the end the book transforms to the longest advertisement in history for his own company).

But if you can look past that there were a lot of practical take away in the book, at least for me. The largest was how should I think about negotiation and how it is a part of life. My favourite technique I still use from day to day is 'labeling' and 'false labeling'. It just helps naturally start conversations when you meet someone at the office coffee machine.

Anyone who has mental blocks asking for a raise should definetly read it.
