This all being said I don’t think even the managers aim to become more evil and more terrible as their goal.

Of course, most managers’ goal is not to become more evil and more terrible. Their goal is to attain more money and power. Becoming more evil and more terrible is simply the means toward those ends.

The people working on the software might not, but the pointy headed managers obviously are reaching for it, and in the end the people working on the software’s opinions don’t matter in the least.

Look man I know what Agile is, and I can guarantee fucking Halliburton is not amongst the most Agile companies in software. I’ve worked for government contractors (not defense contractors, sorry, I like my soul right where it is) and they all claim to follow Agile methodologies and do everything but.

However, even if they were very “Agile”, why the fuck would you plaster their logo on your homepage as if it’s a great thing that they’re using your software?

The company that makes this software is dying to become more evil and/or more terrible than even Atlassian, and I would very much not bother investing my time to learn the nuances of their begging to be acquired by Satan products.

Wanted to look at Taiga a bit and then saw this:

That’s a no for me, dawg.

EDIT: Nah the downvoters are right, Halliburton is one of the “most agile” companies in the world, and has a stellar reputation I should flaunt on my homepage /s

Tell them elections are cancelled

I don’t care if AI is useful, it’s not this useful. And it sure as shit isn’t going to see the returns they expect.

And how. Making coders slightly more efficient really just isn’t worth this much. There’s also going to be hell to pay when software created by all of the vibe-coding is found to be full of security holes.

They want to pitch this as unemployment causing efficiency gains, but this shit clearly can’t do anyone’s job that wasn’t already automatable through regular software.

I wasn’t saying that’s all it is. I was and am saying that that’s why and how a large portion of people use it.

There is a lot of usefulness in simple data structures with a GUI over top. That’s why the data structures were invented in the first place. People–especially in software product management–are insistent that the complicated features are what keep people using software, even when it’s obviously untrue.

It’s not 100% of it, but it’s a large portion.

Excel isn’t replaced because your company already bought it. There are many alternatives to Excel and most of them are acceptable to the overwhelming majority of people who use Excel (people using it for tables and basic graphs) and none of them have displaced Excel.

I mean look at Word. It absolutely sucks and yet it’s standard anyway. Same with Outlook.

It’s just a generic table / matrix thing mostly. Turns out tables are a good way to lay out a bunch of different information.

Somehow nobody has made a similar generic application to allow you to work with nested list, outline, or tree style structures, which I think are equally if not more useful structures to lay out certain types of information.

Good.

The first season of this show (13 reasons why) was somewhat palatable and was at times maybe even an okay show. The following seasons descended into some of the best hate watching, career destroying garbage you’ve ever seen, if you’re into that kind of thing.

Hey, finally some things that aren’t exactly the same as everything else.

I tested mine using my keyfob (which is what I bought it for). Test, for sure, but there are ones that work. Aluminum foil also works.

You can buy faraday wallets for like $20.

Could preface it with “are you still in the return period for this thing?”.

In 10 yrs when those fridges die and people who “learned their lesson” go to buy a new fridge

That’s more like two years for Samsung fridges, where the designers and builders spend all of their time on fancy horseshit and ignore basic requirements like “keep the food cold”.

It wasn’t “understood”. They all wanted to stand on the dais. They all unbanned him from the platforms. They all threw their weight behind him as a candidate.

They are supporters of his. The whole “boo hoo, I only run a trillion dollar company so I cannot stand up to Trump” is a horse shit ass, bitch ass excuse. These people have more access to wealth, legal help, and other resources than any other people in history. They chose this. Some of them capitulated, and some of them collaborated, but it’s a distinction without a difference in my opinion.

Framework for one, but just about any other computer maker is better by that metric.

Such idiot, very blocked, wow.

Keep apologizing for Tim Apple! 🍏🍎
