I was wondering that too. Not arguing or denying, just not sure what they’re referring to.

Okay maybe OR-- and just hear me out here-- Maybe the problem is not enough money in politics?

I cast Pass Without Trace

How did you explain how McDobalds knows when you’re broke or in a hurry?

Thought so-- Sorry about all the downvotes :(

I assume that’s a reference to what the book-burners in Fahrenheit 451 are called, and not a weirdly misogynistic gatekeep, lol.

I guess why the bottom right one is holding a book?

Firefighting shenanigans go all the way back to ancient Rome: Marcus Licinius Crassus formed Rome’s first fire brigade, which would basically extort the owners of burning buildings to buy them on the cheap. Per Wikipedia:

The first ever Roman fire brigade was created by Crassus. Fires were almost a daily occurrence in Rome, and Crassus took advantage of the fact that Rome had no fire department, by creating his own brigade—500 men strong—which rushed to burning buildings at the first cry of alarm. Upon arriving at the scene, however, the firefighters did nothing while Crassus offered to buy the burning building from the distressed property owner, at a miserable price. If the owner agreed to sell the property, his men would put out the fire; if the owner refused, then they would simply let the structure burn to the ground. After buying many properties this way, he rebuilt them, and often leased the properties to their original owners or new tenants.

Oh wow you’re right, lol… 3 links to a story about the same person, Ellen Tara James-Penny.

Everywhere indeed.

How do you know all of this?

Ah, checks out.

Okay but how does starting a secure shell help?

And it does a pretty damn good job as audio software, tbh. Fairlight kicks ass.

We all used to agree that it was the best option to go for.

Thanks for explaining. I still think “planning” is a weird way to think about what’s supposed to happen during standup-- It seems to me that the whole purpose of working in sprints (and the rituals that that typically entails) is to plan ahead so that during the week you can execute on well-groomed, properly-scoped work. Of course when you notice something is wrong, or needs to be reconsidered, you might need to pull the brakes and realign mid-sprint, but my sense is that if you’re doing planning every day, that might mean that your work isn’t groomed well enough beforehand, or you’re not locking in important decisions during sprint planning.

But it might depend on the work, and it might depend on what you mean by “planning.” If your planning just looks like “Hey are you free to pair on issue 123 this afternoon? Okay sweet, I’ll throw a meeting in your calendar,” then yeah sure-- I wouldn’t use the word “planning” for that, but it’s not crazy to. Or maybe the work is different than my work, and actually does warrant some amount of day-level of planning that wouldn’t make sense for teams I’ve been on. I’m open to that, too.

(Btw I tried to look up this “planning planning feedback feedback cycle” thing and the only search results I got were THIS LEMMY THREAD, lol… Cool to see Lemmy show up in search results)

Yeah it’s bad news when the title has to parenthetically clue you in that it’s popular, lol.

Err… Is your team doing planning during standup? I’ve never heard of that, from either people who are on teams that use standups, or from any of the Agile/Scrum literature that I’ve seen. In my experience, standups are typically about either a) coordinating the execution of work that has already been committed to, or b) whoops just a status meeting and everybody’s tuned out.

A good example of a time where you really need to full-ass it.

Algebra is OP

No, no, they have a point: The original native population DID do a better job… But then Republicans and Democrats.

Back in the 90s I remember “Killing in the name of” was about kicking ass and not taking any shit from nobody. Listened to it a few weeks ago and it’s all woke now smdh.
