See? Nobody agrees with me here, even. The whole software dev business is a joke, really. You know, I believed harder than anyone for years and years. But the lack of true intellect on here and in the working world is an eye-opener. You all live in the Matrix, I can't help you. Am logging off and never logging back in.

Nearly 100% of the scrum processes I was involved with at Fortune 500 companies were top-down mandates that could not be deviated from.

I've been hoping for a paradigm shift away from scrum for years! It was good for like 5 minutes after it replaced Waterfall and then it morphed into a freaking hellscape of grifters and non-techies invading the business space. It's never worked out, never! Some of the ceremonies are fine, but overall, it's crap. And people live it like a religion and become angry if you complain about it. It's a freaking work process, not a religion! All it did in large enterprises was become another way to bludgeon developers and take away their agency. Hmm, I recall it was supposed to be ABOUT the developers, not about JIRA and filling out all the idiotic fields in the JIRA tickets. Story points, t-shirt size estimates, RETROSPECTIVES--that never, ever, not even once, led to a positive change. All so a bunch of r/e/t/a/r/d/s who say things like "I'm not very technical, but here's what I think..." to which I always responded--"If you're not very technical, then what makes you think you can lead a technical process?" Idiots and scammers.

Let me tell you something about Magic Kingdom: Everything between the parking lot and the rides exists the way it does in order to SLOW YOU DOWN so you spend more money. All of it! Okay, maybe not the parking lot trams, but all their other gimmicks are just part of a funnel to keep you away from the rides as long as possible and once you're inside, to keep you from leaving.

The skill of the future is behaving ethically.

Don't gamble on this crap. Just...don't.

It's highly questionable whether she changed her personality at all. Why is being extraverted so highly praised, anyways?

But the malware was encoded as an image, how is it runnable on the target's smartphone?

I spent an excruciating 3 months or so learning about IPV6 in a college networking class circa 1994 so that I could be "current" in order to land a job right out of college.

The site that is really, insufferably toxic is LinkedIn.
