wow slashdot is still going?!?!

Imagine a timeline from left to right. On the left is where there's the least knowledge about the project, and on the right the most (when the project is done). Estimates are made …

but it's such a shame, it's a lovely tool

Ship of Theseus. I new a janitor who used the same broom for his entire 20 year career. All he had to do was replace the head when it wore out, and the handle when it broke.

How did Perl "lose"? It's such a great tool, super powerful and concise. One of the best languages out there, but doesn't seem to have much adoption these days.

I...don't know how to put this, but... I'm kind of a big deal. People know me. I have many leather bound books.

it's clearly a message from aliens, embedded in the data stream to get our intention. Occam's razor and all that...

thanks for resolving this discussion on behalf of the developer community

"feature owner didn't pay for tells owner he didn't pay for it"

here in Australia nobody ever seems to have cash anymore, and it doesn't seem to be an issue. Tap your phone to pay, done.

is that true though? CP on Etherium blockchain is a well known problem, and no prosecution jurisdiction is doing anything about it. Who would even have jurisdiction on something so…

I'm*

that's... delusional at best. The US legal system is massively corrupt, racist, an ill-informed on technology. And this is a very generous view of it.

being agile does not mean "not having a plan", it means having a flexible plan and adapting the plan as things change.

i don't disagree. but there are valuable side effects. like engineering technology learned. a place and economy for physicists to "work". The web came from CERN, think of all the t…

what? are you saying they showcased the best results? that's unheard of.

so are they missing a cover from inventory?

Humans are much more complicated than code. If you want to be a great manager, you need to be as self-interested in learning about leadership and people as you once were about the …

the US political system is completely broken, and it's destroying a great country. it's a leadership problem, and needs someone who is capable of detaching and acting in the best i…
