I love how bright bulbs have utterly perverted the spirit of agile development into something so horrible that people are memifying ignoring it rather than trying to fix it.

Repeat after me: If standup takes any more than a minute or two per person you’re really really doing it wrong and it isn’t standup anymore and needs to be staked, buried and the earth salted that it may never rise again.

For an act of socially immature but oh so satisfying passive aggressive resistance, leave a copy of the Agile Manifesto on your scrum master’s desk :)

(Or, if you think they’d be receptive, talk to them about moving long form reporting to any other medium so stand-up can be a simple meeting where folks give blocked/not blocked status and, where blocked, resources are directed to help.

that’s it.

Stand-ups where Mortimer from the Front End team gives a 30 minute treatise on why react is a horrible fit for your application ARE IN FACT NOT STAND-UPS.

They’re just poorly run meetings in an agile trench coat.

Yeah, I feel like this is one of those memes that just travevls like lightning because it’s attractive to people.

IPv6 WAS crazy bad for a very long time, so I can kind of understand it at least, but wake up and smell the 128 bit addressing people, ipv6 is a SUPER useful tool when you need it :)

I keep hearing this, and I KNOW it’s true at the enterprise level, but I’ve been running my home LAN IPv6 native for the last - 6+ years? Ever since I learned Comcat would vend it to you from their stock router.

Works great. No problems. Didn’t used to be that way, but these days most (more?) of the stack bugs have been shaken out.

I’ll take “Product Categories That SHOULD NEVER EXIST” for $1000 Alex!

Gamer culture in one :)

Fun meme, but honestly I think the only folks it’s gonna be a bad year for are AAA game devs, who I already sympathize with.

I think indies are gonna keep rocking some outstanding content. Content made with and for love will always beat content made for money IMO :)

Holy cow I’d love that too.

I want to buy a game, not an ongoing financial leeching.

Kinda disappointing how much of the community just takes a giant 💩 on Mozilla whatever it does these days. Funding open source is super crazy hard folks. Notice that the really successful well funded projects are fueled by megacorps?

Offering constructive criticism is great but if you don’t have better ideas around how to fund an open browser without selling your soul to GOOG or MSFT then perhaps your energy might be better spent elsewhere.

I think everybody’s different. I mean, there do exist 23 year olds who are incredibly mature and fully formed as human beings, capable of making that kind of a Big Decision, but from what I’ve seen they’re pretty darn rare :)

I met my wife at 37 and married at 39. Best decision I ever didn’t intentionally make :)

But looking back, I had a TON of growing up to do before I was ready to seriously commit to marriage the way I personally view it. Pair bonding for life. Sure, people, things and desired change, but I’ve watched far too many god awful divorces to ever want to go through that, so I wanted to be really sure and I totally was. It’s been an awesome 16 years.
