An unproductive programmer can turn the 'daily standup' into a routine, long, waste of time (e.g. Vi vs Emacs, tabs vs spaces, normalization, comment style etc etc).
Thus lowering everybodies productivity to his level for 3 or 4 hours/day.
The fact is that 'daily standup' is just a 'meeting' type manager misapplying his favorite mode of communication.
Dollars to donuts it's much worse in the soft 'sciences'. Slightly remediated by the fact they're too stupid to realize what they were asking was wrong.
Companies are not liable for what people do with their products,
Shitheal states were trying to pass laws to make the gun manufacturers liable for their products _working_correctly_. That's because absent those laws, gun manufactures were not liable. No more than car manufacturers are liable for shitty drivers.
SCO was kind of unique. Their shysters had agreed to represent them to the bitter end for a big block of stock.
The Nazgul actively prevented SCO from going bankrupt, just so they could play with SCO's shysters, like a cat 'playing' with a half dead mouse. Good fun for all.
What did SCO own at the end? Some office furniture and the right to sell a dead OS (but not the copyright)?
You obviously had a 'privileged upbringing'. If you had ever worked an office cleaning job you would know the women's bathrooms are the true disaster areas.
Once they get a little dirty and the girls start 'hovering' it's all over. Best bet is to nuke it from orbit and rebuild.

Scrum is 'cargo cult' Agile.
It uses the words, but gets everything wrong.
Agile is a manifesto that sounds good enough to PHBs they pasted onto their micromanaging bullshit.
Agile explicitly says: 'People before process'. Scrum is the opposite.
Drinkypoo is just too much fun to counter troll.
Lying is a life skill.
Part of that skill is knowing when. Peer reviewed papers is a dumb place to lie.
You live in clearlake dumbass.
'Half their lives' is _optimistic_ for the worst cases, but those people are _morons_.
That's hardly the average.
1 in 4 biostatisticians...

It's a great defense.

I'd like to see the number of technical problems that boil down to 'vodka spilled on *' broken out separately.
You can find crazy edge definitions many places.
Many black christians consider abortion to be part of a 'black genocide'.

Patents average 10k$ to secure.
But a worthless patent has a _negative_ value. It's a money pit that only shysters like.
Context: States trying to pass laws that make manufactures liable for their product working as designed and intended.
The English and French owned the Suez canal, until they didn't.
China will learn the hard way. Right now they are building, when the building is done, they will learn about kleptocracies too.
Google 'East texas patent idiocy'.
Do it.
I don't care what they speak, as long as the list includes English.
Not in places like San Diego or El Paso.
We run the risk of being culturally balkanized. TV helps, but schools need to be English only.
There is never a bad time to mock the french.
They were just sticking their thumb in the frog's eye.
The french are really butthurt that frogish is now a backwater language.
That's not working though. Men are winning many women's sports contests. Having developed with testosterone and having male muscles.
I know a dude with that.
He's the only man I know that expects his friends to 'checkin' once a week. Strange fellow.
Technically, they turn the dick inside out and make 'Vaginer' out of it.

I feel sorry for them. Chumps.
Back in the 80s. IBM brought out a new harddrive they claimed was bulletproof.
Somebody figured the platter resonance frequency and 'tacoma narrows bridged' it with head motion during a demo.
They're committed to the Rolex model. Look for a 10k$ iphone. The MacIdiots will WANT that.
