This brings up so many memories

Of all the things in the world, this made me feel a jolt of sadness.

People who don't like prices of food are free to starve.

They want to eay without paying the cost of bringing food to market. It's pernicious entitlement, made more outrageous by complaining about the greed of those actually providing the food.

One would think that this would be fixed in the last five years?

Would have been nice to have some lead time. I feel like the sudden change is too bait and switch.

Is there tooling or something special around this? I'm not trying to be a curmudgeon, but I'm having a hard time seeing what is novel here other than applying a name to component based modular software design.

Cool. A way for me to "market" good software design to others without them realizing it's just normal modular design with reasonable best practices. Sadly most people need a fancy name and slide deck for this.

If you want to put content behind a wall of some kind, that is fine. You can't expect to have it be indexed in search. Having it show in search results while having a wall in front of it once someone clicks is a bait and switch. You can't have you cake and eat it too.

Do you have teams that tend towards younger ages? I'd throw out there that what trends you see will be heavily dependent on that.

Maybe Logitech will make a usb-c dongle one day, until then I'm stuck with an adapter that sticks out and is constantly in danger of being knocked and bent.

Note that this "study" only went till June of 2020.

So all these workers went to remote work in a company without a remote work culture, then were measured for a short period of time before a remote work culture and the policies and tools to support it could be ironed out.

Also, how are they measuring "innovation"?

Ah yes. They are no true Scotsman.

> Software projects always used to go massively over budget, were delivered late, and usually didn't meet the customers requirements anyway.

I feel like this is still the case under "Agile"

I remember reading books a lot. I have two brothers, so playing with them and with toys. We also went out to play in the snow a lot.

Years ago when I was growing up in the woods of West Virginia we had a particularly bad blizzard. During this time the power went out.

We were use to this happening and most of the time it was for half a day or so. So we pulled out the kerosene heaters and the oil lamps for light. Bundled up and waiting.

We ended up being snowed in without power for two weeks. My mom and dad would take turns bundling up and walking a mile or so every few days to get to the roads to get more fuel.

One thing I remember clearly was cooking on out outside wood fire grill, which was essentially cinder blocks and a grate. No worry about running out of wood since there was always plenty around.

I remember the whole ordeal pretty fondly. As a kid it was a good change of pace and like camping.
