The obvious reply:
They must be using Artificial Intelligence because there's no evidence of their using Real Intelligence.

A new study shows that privacy on social media is like second-hand smoke. It's controlled by the people around you. Friends don't need friends to like them on FB
|
|
|
|

When fb first started, I of course created an account (I'm willing to sell my myspace account, BTW), and among the first things I realised was that the "friend" thing would not only lead to ridiculous amounts of unwanted e-mail, but that it would also be used as a tool to infringe the privacy of all Internet users, by association, and, in extreme cases, could be used as a mob-mind control tool.
That these self-evident (read: "f***ing obvious!") facts were not arrived at by everyone is very much to our shame.
Bring on the AI singularity, because there's precious little intelligence anywhere else on Earth.

... and what about fb.com?
And how many more?

Most of them just redirect to facebook.com, so they're automatically blocked.

The Department of Defense (DoD) wants to save you from poor Agile development practices. Because when you think 'agile', think of the people that define standards for how they will standardize standard definitions
|
|
|
|

But I think they're getting mixed up.
What they mean by AGILE is probably another army initialism, like SNAFU, and someone in the pentagon thinks it's how we describe dev work.

No, SNAFU is the DoD's implementation of waterfall. DoD AGILE upgrades SNAFU to FUBAR and combines it with BOHICA into a new Cluster![Elephant | [mastadon]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/elephant.gif)
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing 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?

Quote: A team that treats meeting requirements “as more important than getting something useful into the field as quickly as possible” should also fix its priorities as soon as possible.
and therein lies the problem with agile - "Get something out as quickly as possible" SMH

I was going to post the same quote. My comment would be (or is) something like:
"Yeah. Give them that bio-rhythm. At least they'll have something right away. That should keep their customer's investments safe."

I would claim that my jaw dropped when I saw it mention that concentrating on requiremens was secondary to getting something out of the door - but nothing really surprises me nowadays.

I can hear my grandpa now "Back in my day saddle light meant you threw a blanket on a horse"... I guess with satellites ol' zucker can be even more invasive by creating facebook pages for those that don't have them.(count me as one of those)

The CLR makes heavy use of a technique known as stack walking (or stack crawling). This involves iterating the sequence of call frames for a particular thread, from the most recent (the thread’s current function) back down to the base of the stack. Developer wanted: must enjoy long stack walks on the (data) breach

As long as they're not recursive; I don't have a lot of luck walking backward.
I especially shouldn't have done it when I'd just cleaned the upstairs windows.

The tech talent gap is biting most of the 1,000 technical hiring managers responding to a recent survey. And 40% of job postings have unrealistic requirements?

My fault.
I shouldn't have commented on the zdnet site that I couldn't find anyone with 20 years experience in C#.

But then there will be loads of people with 20 years' experience.
I only want the best, so I'll demand 25.

60% are willing to lie on their resume and claim 15 years of AWS, 20 years of C# and 10 years of Swift if that's what the HR droid entered in the job req.
