Now I mainly speak Spanish or English. No German speakers around since my mother and grandparents died.

Sorry, I am late! Following the theme...
Policeman paints a scenic picture (9)
Also, bonus one just for fun:
Cloned myself with enryption algorithm following superior mathematician (10)

Crossword clues are like buses, wait an hour then two come at once! 
First one is CONSTABLE, working on the second.

Well the first bus gets you across the winning line, so you are up tomorrow!
I like the second clue better, as it's a little harder, but I wanted to try and stick with the "Policeman" theme... good luck trying to stick with it tomorrow!

ARCHIMEDES?
Cloned myself I, ME
with enryption algorithm following DES
superior mathematician
No idea where "ARCH" comes from.

Never throw anything away, Griff
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Yep
ARCH = superior, not something I would have linked myself, but thesaurus knows best[^]!
(Cloned myself with enryption algorithm) following superior = mathematician

Code review is no problem at all. The fun begins when it is taken over by passionate beaurocrats who invent a billion rules, 'standards' and 'conventions', plus annotations and exceptions, exceptions to the exceptions....

If job adverts are anything to go by, 95% of development teams are Agile.
If reality is anything to go by, 95% of development teams are not.

And that because agile is so agile, that can include anything... even non-agile...
But think of it - you have a smart-ass customer, who updated by the very same adverts, and asks you if you are agile (otherwise you software can lay golden eggs, it worth nothing)... You can answer yes without hesitation and bad feelings...
