msurekci··on Study finds 268% higher failure rates for Agile software projects
"One standout statistic was that projects with clear requirements documented before development started were 97 percent more likely to succeed"

The issue with a majority of projects are the requirements aren't always clear from the start or even if they are it tends to deviate while the project is in progress. Agile tries to mitigate that by allowing teams to be able to react more easily to changing requirements.

That being said not many companies understand or implement agile correctly, unfortunately.

msurekci··on How Netflix became a billion-dollar titan
Lately, they have been compromising on quality and focusing on quantity. I don't think the fact that they are producing more movies than the other Hollywood production companies should be seen as a good sign.

This is all subjective but, I do believe that the 10 movies that Disney produce will be far superior than any of the 73 movies that come from Netflix.

msurekci··on European Commission fines Google €2.42B for abusing dominance
Does anyone know where the €2.42B will be used?

Will it be used to compensate the rival companies? Will it be used to compensate European consumers? (And most importantly, it denied European consumers a genuine choice of services and the full benefits of innovation)

msurekci··on Ask HN: How do you handle inter-team dependencies?
I'm assuming that both teams are technical. If so, I don't see any reason as to why your own team can't build the API that they need.

Become an autonomous team, break down all dependencies.
