@sjvn You left out things starting instantly on the first keypress, and modals that always backed out via the breadcrumb path rather than short-cutting.

Wow. I've just discovered something *else* stupid about Agile.

Small standups daily and one big meeting during the week turns out to be a really fucked way of doing things. Just have a halfa every day and leave it at that. You can't change people.

@br00t4c

She killed him.

It's bloody annoying how the BBC comments below try and put them on an equal footing.

@br00t4c Hang on wouldn't it be the NYT alarmed??

@WarnerCrocker Fingers crossed

@br00t4c

Yeah because a Democrat govt means the economy won't tank catastrophically in the first year.

If I was made of money *I'd* be happy about that too! :D

@Infoseepage It's ok. Thanks to modern software's complete lack of security all the production details will already have been stolen and are now being processed by a competitor.
Even if gilead somehow manages to make it illegal to sell competing vaccines (good luck with that), medical tourism is huge now and a quick trip to BKK will soon get you your AIDS vax.

Wow.

I've just been reading about Finland during ww2. What a goddamn mess!

They are seen as the bad guys because of who they sided with but they were caught between a rock and hard place.

(For those who came in late, like me:)
* Initially after the Hitler-Stalin Pact collapsed, Finland sided with the 3rd Reich to repel Russia, who wanted to take big chunks of Finland.
* Later, after a lot of other stuff happened including most of a world war they had no choice but to take up arms against the Nazis

@br00t4c Bigger rubber band this time!

@workingclasshistory I remember the first time I read about this and checking over and over that it wasn't fiction.
They dropped a bomb from a helicopter, on an urban location.
It still makes me stare at the wall.

@aral Anyone here ever getting on a Boeing aircraft ever again?

@BethanyBlack Breed Blocking!

Plaintiffs need to start suing individual parties for their stance and inaction/action regarding global warming. As the scientific truth is no longer disputable, other defensive arguments become much harder.

@Gargron @mike That movie was depressingly genius

@Gargron It's a hybrid of Symbolic AI and Neural Networks, which is where this was always going. This current weak adaptation is already destroying egos left right and centre, and it's going to improve. More feedback. Deeper abstraction. Inference.
