"We're done" - does that mean they think they've finished the work, or that they threw up their hands and gave up trying to make it work?

Digital.ai's 15th annual survey found that 84% of developer teams are using agile methods and the DevOps trend continues to grow as well. It seems "use agile methods" means something different to a lot of people
I guess to be fair 84% use *some* agile methods in that management wants them to code faster, and without writing specs.

The biggest problem with Agile is that the "customer" writes the stories, and they don't know the inner workings of the app or what to call various components. Then the developers then have to go in and add notes that make it code-applicable.
I'm not a fan of agile/scrum. At all.

Same here. I'm more of a waiter/cook type of person. Tell me what you want, check to see if it is possible (on the menu), state the price, and if ordered, go code it up.

Yeah, for me "agile" means stopping the cat from jumping on the keyboard.

Clippy, the former Microsoft Office assistant that has since become a part of Internet culture is set to officially come back to life in Office. It looks like you're trying to make my eyes roll. I don't need help with that, thanks.

A lot of focus is made on hardening systems from outside attacks, but threats from within the company shouldn’t be ignored. The hacking is coming from inside the house
Is it just me, or does that number seem crazy-high? Or are they just considering any possible data leaving the company as a breach?

Pichai suggested: ... the internet and electricity are also small potatoes compared to AI. Remind me again, does AI require electricity, or electricity require AI? < /end sarcasm > I would say I'm feeling dumb today, but I'm obviously not as dumb as a certain Google exec.
And anyone with real brains knows that hot water for your shower is the greatest invention ever.
Crash google servers with AI:
class GreatestThingEver {
public:
int MushForBrains = 0;
int operator()() { return MushForBrains; }
};
GreatestThingEver PichaisHyperbole();
GreatestThingEver greatestThingEver() {
return PichaisHyperbole();

GreatestThingEver PichaisHyperbole() {
return greatestThingEver();
}
int main() {
return greatestThingEver()();

Maybe they did it on purpose, due to the same reasons that Apple avoids 69 and hotels the floor 13.
If they didn't drop it, it would have been 3 times the 6
