@discoveryplusUK I think you need to fix you tv metadata. I'm trying watch the Torino v inter match but the thing showing up is ping pong match when you try and play the match

@ADHDinos any chance you will start reposting you comics on mastodon. X/Twitter has become a very inhospitable place for ADHDers like myself so many have moved there. It may also help you find a new audience :)

Scrum is a cancer.

I've been writing software for 25 years, and nothing renders a software team useless like Scrum does.

Some anecdotes:

1. They tried to convince me that Poker is a planning tool, not a game.

2. If you want to be more efficient, you must add process, not remove it. They had us attending the "ceremonies," a fancy name for a buttload of meetings: stand-ups, groomings, planning, retrospectives, and Scrum of Scrums. We spent more time talking than doing.

3. We prohibited laptops in meetings. We had to stand. We passed a ball around to keep everyone paying attention.

4. We spent more time estimating story points than writing software. Story points measure complexity, not time, but we had to decide how many story points fit in a sprint.

5. I had to use t-shirt sizes to estimate software.

6. We measured how much it cost to deliver one story point and then wrote contracts where clients paid for a package of "500 story points."

7. Management lost it when they found that 500 story points in one project weren't the same as 500 story points on another project. We had many meetings to fix this.

8. Imagine having a manager, a scrum master, a product owner, and a tech lead. You had to answer to all of them and none simultaneously.

9. We paid people who told us whether we were "burning down points" fast enough. Weren't story points about complexity instead of time? Never mind.

I believe in Agile, but this ain't agile.

We brought professional Scrum trainers. We paid people from our team to get certified. We tried Scrum this way and that other way. We spent years doing it.

The result was always the same: It didn't work.

Scrum is a cancer that will eat your development team. Scrum is not for developers; it's another tool for managers to feel they are in control.

But the best about Scrum are those who look you in the eye and tell you: "If it doesn't work for you, you are doing it wrong. Scrum is anything that works for your team."

Sure it is.

@TicketmasterCS morning. I got ticket for the radwimps Concert Happening on May 21. The venue has been changed but that's not reflected on your site. Will my ticket be accepted in the new venue or should I expect new ticket from you?

@Dictionarycom So if it's a one time purchase and I have an account with you does that mean I get to keep it when I move devices or do I have to purchase it every time I move to a new device. If so then it's not a one time purchase isn't it.

I wander what it was done to optimize #FM23Touch on the switch. The intro animation when the game is loading is quite slow but the rest of the game seam to run ok so far

[gozes @gozes]

@theoldzealand Looks interesting but still waiting for news on the switch version

[gozes @gozes]

@brunoluiz Yup that I know. Now the question is will get to the point of tropical fruits. If we don't do something to at the very less stop emissions then answer, sadly, will be yes

@FootballManager How come mobile got new features but no word on the switch version?

[LondonGophers @LondonGophers]

Watch @LukeStoward brilliantly handling a network issue during their live demo! Perhaps this tracing thing is quite useful after all?

Want to know more about what's being demonstrated?

[gozes @gozes]

When the #golang compiler provide you right on a PR review

[gozes @gozes]

@theoldzealand any plans to extend your FM beginners guide to cover things that may be useful for non-football picking up FM for the first time?

[gozes @gozes]

@FootballManager could you clarify if fm23 console is coming to the switch? https://t.co/5K60s51kUI this seams to imply it will yet In other part of your site I see reference to fm23 touch on the switch. So which one is it?

[gozes @gozes]

@FootballManager hopefully we will get some more news about fm23 touch on the switch soon? :)
