Comment Three reasons (Score 1) 20

A: copyright infringement on the output on another AI
B: contract violation. Because of A) every training contract forbids using other AIs
C: incest. You are simply back feeding stuff you know nothing about back into what you want to train. That can be useful with synthesized data, but is not what is wanted if you employ 10k internet monkeys to human fact check input and output.

I did not do a non agile project since 1998. (Actually 1992, when we invented our own agile methods)

And you: never did an agile project.

So, why complain about stuff you have no live experience in?

Most certainly I never do a non agile project for the rest of my life.

When everything in your world is politics, hype and abuse: your problem.

I learn, apply, reassess, and get better in applying.

You are constantly talking about stuff (negatively): where you absolutely have no experience in May it be AI or solar, batteries or Agile. Oh I forgot, you hate object oriented, too.

Strange.

There is no alternative.

So, what is your point again?

Agile removes the management and reduces it to a single person + users.

Win win for everyone.

Programmers organize their work themselves instead of getting pressed into plans done by someone else.

No idea what is wrong with that.

The EU is very well allowed to compete with businesses.

Government controlled means: someone controls that no "evil content" is spread.

It does not mean it controls the individual citizen. I thought that was clear.

The rule is: you can make a social network, but you are responsible for making sure no kids are there.
And that is wrong. Kids want to communicate with other kids.

The whole idea is bollocks.

And why would a child get more toxic content than its parents?
If you click: "not interested" nearly everything you are not interested in: goes away.

90% of the content you get on social media: is from your social friends!!! hence the name.

The rest is advertisement, which the platform/algorithm thinks fits my profile.

On TikTok for example, I get nothing unpleasant at all. It is configured that I only get stuff the algorithm is 100% sure I like, and actually: the algorithm is 99% correct.

If I had kids: for them it would be the same. No damn reason to not allow kids to exchange pictures.

A bitcoin hash has nothing to do with a hashtree.
And a ledger and/or blockchain: neither.

Blockchain means: every bitcoin (or fraction there of) can be looked at, and traced back over all previous owners back to the original creator/owner.

The party will not accept anyone that doesn't completely conform to the party's policies and ideology, and they perform extensive testing to ensure it.
Obviously.
Just like any other party in the world.
Or do you farking think you can join the CSU and stay there and make a career if you are not a Christian?
Or join the FDP if you are not a liberal?
Or join "die Linke" if you are not a left leaning "socialist"?

What do you think a party is for?

That's it. It doesn't impact what jobs you can get, That is nonsense.
it doesn't change how your vote is counted, Same in China. The vote counts the same.
it doesn't give you more or less say in public policy,
Same in China. And more important: money does not give you power. That is what China was/is scared about: that politics is run by money.

it doesn't change how you participate in life generally, If you believe that about USA: you are an idiot.

No idea why you google for silly links, instead of simply reading the English translation of the party Charta.

In China you join the party, because you want to have a say in politics. Just like you do in other countries. In China the CPC is the parliament. Every decision is done there. If you want to vote about it: you need to be a member. The real "parliament" is only an organ to do the work (and voting) about the exact words of a law.

The people in the party vote on what law they want, e.g. that abortion is legal. The parliament sets up the framework, under what rules is it legal, e.g. till what month of pregnancy. Yeah, the parliament can not make it illegal: because it has to follow the vote in the party. But: it is the organ that describes the rules, and the members vote on those rules.

You should start learning that different countries have different ideas what "democracy" is - and now it is supposed to work.

Your democracy does not work at all since the death Kennedy! Which what audacity do you dare to criticize another country's democracy?

This is the kinda thinking that crashed two space shuttles.
Nope it does not. It should be obvious that we are talking about working code that works perfectly fine - otherwise it would not be shipped.

Sometimes safety or durability has a higher priority than shipping.
As you only ship perfectly fine code: it is the same.

You can't freeze a design if your requirements are subject to customer change at the end of every 2 week sprint.
The point is: the fucking customer, IS CHANGING HIS REQUIREMENTS. So, your design gets thrown away, and gets redesigned. That is the main reason for running relatively short sprints. And most likely it is not a change affecting the last sprint, that would be super bad planning on customer side, but changes on stuff that is still in the backlog. Aka, planned features get scratched or changed and new features added.

Working software over comprehensive documentation
This is about software code documentation and generated UML diagrams etc. that no one really needs if you have running code.

Obviously if you have something complicated: you write a manual how to operate the system. E.g. the flight manuals for the space shuttle. But not necessarily an UML class diagram.

However: the point is, while we value the left side more, we do not neglect the right side, where it is useful and/or needed:

Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
Working software over comprehensive documentation
Customer collaboration over contract negotiation
Responding to change over following a plan

In Germany they also tries to use math to weed out students.
I passed a math test where ~96% failed. From roughly 500 students 23 or so passed the exam.

And to make it more funny, they sorted the people passing by grade, and not by their student ID. So I did not find myself so easy.

We do not know how many good programmers/computer scientists got lost that way.
Some of them however went to college (Fachhochschule) instead of university after they got kicked out, and made it there.
