Starlink has a catastrophic architectural failure which is a shining example of why Agile can never be allowed even as close as the parking lot to any project of any size. If you attended a so-called University and they taught you Agile, you attended a Trump University and should sue to get your money back. Absolutely no business should recognize your degree. Agile is just hacking on the fly until the money runs out. Starlink … Starlink – Catastrophic Architectural FailureRead more

Microsoft Broke IDE LS-120 Support

I set this machine up last year, in the summer sometime. I was happy with the various Linux flavors I had on it. Then I encountered a need to put Windows 11 on it for some specific work.

Besides suffering from Gross Incompetence, this has to be some sort of malfeasance. Agile is not Software Engineering. “Priced right” does not make a developer qualified. The Letters If you are unfortunate enough to have any policy with Human where they badgered you to … Humana – Even Free Is Too High A PriceRead more
