Fred Brooks was the author of "The Mythical Man Month" a book that was hugely influential on so many of us. Also his paper "No Silver Bullet" would be on most people's shortlist of most influential papers.
Nowhere in the laws of physics is it required that a commit, push, or PR can only be for a fully completed feature. Some people made that up, and it is likely not a good choice for your org.
Let’s be 100% clear. If Republicans win control of the House, Senate and White House two years from now, they will pass a national abortion ban. And no matter where you live, no matter how pro-choice your state is, women and doctors will be locked up for practicing health care.
No matter what the courts say, no one should be forced to carry a pregnancy against their will.

When people think about recycling, they imagine turning trash into something else. But that's not what's happening with a lot of plastics. Recycling is a commodities market—it's about whether someone wants to buy that item or not. @cgbooker reports:

Repeat it with us: Coded bias is a not data problem just like police violence isn't just because of "one bad apple".
Our institutions are encoded with systemic racism and often exploit Black and Brown bodies to thrive.
The effort to change voting laws is most extreme in states where Republicans have recently lost federal elections but still control state government https://t.co/bChNiQX5tp
