Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

It also intends to source chips from Europe in the future. They don't even have Ketchup-flavoured ones. How good could they be?

Smart move. Right now, far too much chip making on the planet is found in South Korea and Taiwan. A natural catastrophe (typhoon, earthquake, etc.) or foreign power invasion (North Korea, China) could cripple the entire western economy by eliminating computer chips production.
We need other chip manufacturers to do the same, spreading out the production of this critical component to modern civilization to as many places on the globe as possible.

Microsoft has a new Games for Work app for Teams. It’s designed to let co-workers go head-to-head in casual games during meetings. I guess I will show up for the next team meeting after all
"Productivity". You keep using that word...

Will they then make the rankings visible for the bosses so they can check who was paying attention and who wasn't?
(After seeing a couple of things in Office 365, it would not surprise me at all)

Exactly. Nothing exemplifies productivity like playing video games during work hours.
Next on the list, Netflix. I know I code my best when Netflix is playing on one monitor and I am coding in the other. What could go wrong?

I say it's a trap (Star Wars: Return of the Jedi - It's a Trap !!! - YouTube[^])
Now management *knows* when you aren't paying attention. Worse, I suspect their are backdoors to allow management to cheat.

Only 30% of respondents from other industries are as concerned about the risks associated with their IT staff. Maybe it's time for a few more of those trust exercises?
Get the bank CEO to fall backwards into the arms of their IT team or something. You know, beside a pit. With spikes at the bottom.

Given the idiocy I've seen surrounding bank cyber security, I'd say it's closer to 100%.
- Things like passwords can't be more than x (where x is a single digit) characters.
- Requiring you zip and password protect the zip file before you upload it - sounds to me like they're using a non-secure upload back end (FTP over SSH comes to mind).
- Requiring you install their software to use their services - this is very common in the business side of the bank.
- etc.

The strength of the software development team is each individual developer. The strength of each developer is the team. How else are managers going to figure out how many whips to buy next year?
If recent history is any guide, the CEO knows everything about the platform. So, they can judge how worthwhile each dev automagically.

I have yet to see any way to measure this quantitatively, let alone qualitatively. Maybe it could be done by giving two developers the same assignment, but who's going to fund that? And if you chose a different assignment, the outcome could be rather different.
Most of my career was spent designing and developing in-house application frameworks that improved other people's productivity. How much of the increase (or decrease  ) in their productivity would then be imputed to me?
The article suggests measuring team performance. I don't see how that's any easier. It says that individual developers are only as strong as their teams, which in my experience is a false platitude.
