I read Agile is the new Waterfall at first with disgust, then with horror, and then finally with a meager amount of very qualified approval. Worth reading for the reference to "Flaccid Scrum" if nothing else

I love how just about every defense of Agile involves an infinite number of strawmen. Agile, in its full glory, is an abomination.

Ultimately, everything will kill you 
|

|
Only one thing can kill you. The rest would be too late to do the job. Choose your method of death wisely.

Good health is just the slowest possible way to die!

The reason I want to know first whether a startup is default alive or default dead is that the rest of the conversation depends on the answer. Half of founders don't know whether they're default alive or default dead.

New software sifts through the information gathered in long forgotten studies and finds new avenues for researchers to pursue—like a new advance in treating spinal injuries. Doctors have just discovered a previously unknown relationship between the long-term recovery of spinal cord injury victims and high blood pressure during their initial surgeries.

Just remember if you test 10k random hypothesis you'll end up several hundred 2 sigma false positives (95% confidence level), several dozen 3 sigma false positives (99.7% confidence level), and a good chance of a 4 sigma false positive (1 in 16k odds).
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
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?

Oct 15 Yahoo's next step in password security is to eliminate them altogether.
Starting on Thursday, the company announced, users of the Yahoo Mail app on both iOS and Android will have access to a new service called Yahoo Account Key, which uses smartphones to verify identities in lieu of traditional passwords. But we'll still need to enter a password on our phone to access the service...

Very cool, seeing as though I haven't used yahoo since the 1990's, I probably don't need a password anyway.

And if someone tkaes your phone, then can read your emails directly?

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

The US wireless regulator (FCC) only seems to have figured that out recently, and is not happy with your ability to boost the signal power excessively on such devices. The FCC proposed changes to regulations, with one document suggesting it may ban or restrict third-party software altogether.
