I would block the app with the firewall and see what happens.

Yes, Sander, it's true. They got one of your ScriptWraiths.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

Use NoScript[^] on Firefox / ScriptBlock[^] on Chrome.
With scripts disabled, their ad-block-blocker doesn't work.

I love the idea of a script blocker, or really, a blocker-blocker-blocker.
Alas - I need to keep my browser the same as everyone else, here, so when I produce something that "works on my machine" it will work on theirs (probably). The page is not particularly important, and, of course, I could always use IE, which amazingly I don't have to support!
From the recent two posts, I'm beginning to think that another thing outsourced to India is candidates for the Darwin Awards.

Most news sites are like that. Look at uBlock origin or NoScript or something else similar.

Logically, for the M&M's sorter, you only need two receptacles.
- One for the Green ones
- One for the trash

The whole thing should be thrown into trash, actually.

That makes me wonder what was invented 20 years ago that's even better than this sorting machine?

My first thought was 'Why would anyone mix Skittles and M&M's?'

... And then you see all the stupid "research" that millions are wasted on!

Which is the stupid research; which is the smart stuff? Who shall be "THE DECIDERS!" ?
Best solution to avoid waste, then, it would seem, is to just stop all research.

The research I think is stupid is the stupid research, and the research I think is smart is the smart stuff.
I don't understand how you can even think a question with such a patently obvious answer.

Put engineers and managers in a room, engineers always end up bloody noses.
Ok, I asked about formal software engineering and thanks for your comments. Most said that because circumstance forces upon requiring to practice FSE, e.g. in a life threatening situation. I interpreted that must means that business software is secondary importance. Probably not what a business owner's intention.
Due to budget constraints that customers or bosses demanded more for less. However, the principle of a requirement dictates that when a project is crunch against time and budget, the more we must follow formal engineering, within sprint cycle or project cycle.
My next question is: Who is letting this behavior happen?

You answered your own question when you asked it.
They're "managers" and so get to make the decisions. Informed or otherwise.
