Thanks for pointing that out so I didn’t have to.

What’s the alternative? Waterfail?

Yeah because business requirements and technology is changing at an ever slower rate…

My ICQ ID was a rather low number…

No one, it just makes sense.

You must be one of those “Throw your mother downstairs, the box of tissues” types.

Yoda sounded normal to you I bet.

It’s how water feels sweetums

Uh gee, for starters don’t go around broadcasting that you’re not home. Watching your stuff. Do you want property theft? Because that’s how you get property theft! You can brag and selectively post all the highlights and none of the lowlights when you’re back if you think that you need that to feel better about yourself.

Shut up no one likes you

Look look look as a home owner with a mortgage, I think you’re looking at this all wrong.

You should be furious and demanding correction French style.

It’s super wrong and political action is desperately needed

You know? I literally figured that out a minute before I saw your reply. And I rolled my eyes at myself.

That makes sense. Silly me

Cheers

Ideally your estimates would just be complexity points. And those estimates would go on on the stories in Jira/Azure Dev Ops / wherever

And honestly the team should meet up and discuss the estimates

I don’t understand your statement. The Mythical Man Month teaches exactly that lesson of more bodies != Faster in many cases.

How long to build the site with 1 full stack dev? 1.5 years.

How long with an existing high performance team of 5? 2 months.

How long if you hire 4 plus the one original (all qualified)? 1 to 1.5 years.

How long if we hire 30 full stack devs? Maybe never.

Good ones are pretty rare and good program managers are even rarer.

What they should do, and what most actually do, are different things.

Project managers must be great with humans and communication. If they are not, then they just can’t be effective.

If the timing is critical then the only reasonable solution is to cut scope and features until it fits.

The triangle isn’t a rubbery floppy thing, it is iron!

Geez… Project managers are forbidden from making work estimates- they only get to collect them.

They don’t get to argue estimates either. They can ask questions to gain understanding but the estimates are the estimates.

Wearing an architect or chief engineer hat is sometimes more fun because you get to call bullshit on dumb estimates like “4 to 5 weeks to model a table with 7 fields, with 2 of them being PK, FK” like GTFO we can model it in the next 5 minutes if I talk slowly.

Some of y’all are look to ask Steve the Miller about this when your answers would be easier to find on Baker Street

I wonder if that sheep is look for the wheel that thief took?

Want

If your dome light isn’t an LED, then you should replace it with one. It won’t completely fix your problem but it will give you 9 to 10 times longer to catch it.

There’s really no reason that every car doesn’t have a voltage cut off to protect the battery such that it can still start. Additionally, if they just included a super capacitor then even with a heavily discharged battery, it could charge up the super capacitor to then start the car.

But if we went around doing smart stuff like that then we could potentially wreck the entire lead acid battery industry and that would just be awful…

The NSA knows absolutely anything about absolutely anyone it wants to know.

Do you use a cellphone? Use a smart TV? Roku? Android play? Apple anything?

I mean…the question now is what specifically do you want to protect and from whom?

I’m not judging the want, just pointing out the reality of the want.
