I'm not sure I buy this. For one thing, the article makes no mention of the major pivot Ford (who they call a leader of the pack) just made in investing in Argo AI: http://www.theverge.com/2017/2/10/14579126/ford-argo-ai-one-...

For me it was pair programming, without a doubt.

A year and a half ago I moved from a large enterprise to a small consultancy who practices pair programming. I've learned a great deal more in that year and a half than in the preceding five years working solo on agile and not-so-agile teams.

Good practices and spending time attacking problems together with various colleagues across different projects and tech stacks is what has gotten me to that next level. I'm completely sold on the practice.

I'm much more productive while working with a partner than I am solo as well.

I think you're being pedantic. It's pretty clear what the headline implies and what the parent commenter is saying.

From headline reading "X goes public with...", most people would infer a scenario where something out of the ordinary is taking place. Pointing out that this disclosure was made by a bot is a meaningful distinction.

I've seen this same thing along I-71 in Ohio.

Herge is saying that the free (libre) nature of free software means that these organizations must also be free to use it.

I'm in the "jif" crowd. This means that I always want to pronounce "git" as in "Github" with a soft g, which is wrong.

I can't figure out what that utility was supposed to do. What does it mean to "fade" message text? Blend it with the background color or something?

Virgin actually uses Sprint's network. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virgin_Mobile_USA

This is also true in China (at least in Mandarin-speaking regions, I don't know about Cantonese or other dialects).
