Every single piece of jargon involved with Agile software development enrages me: scrum, scrummaster, story points, sprint, etc. etc.

My comment doesn’t contradict that. I make full allowance for learning and training in my comment. But I do feel that some people have an innate artistic eye for some things that can’t be taught.

People can say whatever they want about her. But she changed the game.

Noooooooo Danicaaaa!

You’re doing an awful lot of projecting onto Ariely’s pretty bland statement that both the asking and the agreeing are mistakes. For one, you seem to be suggesting, or at least hinting at the possibility, that the author’s sex partner had a premeditated plan to manipulate her. You don’t know that; he too could have…

They have a choice. It’s “Don’t buy it.”

Sure you are, you can choose to play (buy) something else.

I think this is a good and important point. We as the community need to take responsibility for what we say to other people. Blizzard can only do so much (as they should).

I honestly assumed it was.

I’ll do you one better, and reduce this to two signs you can use to evaluate if you’re in a good cocktail bar:

Here is perhaps the most sobering thought about car sales as a career: everyone in the profession can be replaced by a well-crafted web interface.

Former car salescritter here, eventually became an F&I guy, sales manager, and GSM. What follows should be considered well-informed opinion...

In what way am I being insensitive or slow to understand? I understand you do not respect others, and you take advantage of a low-risk situation to find what I can only guess is a demented cathartic release from destroying property. Am I being insensitive to your need to destroy others’ property? Well, I’ll own…

Then you’re an asshole. I can guarantee you if someone put forks through your doors to move your car outta the way you’d be whining and bitching like the asshole you are. Of course, since it wasn’t YOUR property, you’re totally okay with it.

Counter-counter-counter point: it’s not your property, you’re not local law enforcment, don’t fucking touch.

Counter-point: It’s not your property so don’t fucking touch it.

As a kid, I went to see the documentary featuring Steve McQueen, On Any Sunday. I wasn’t old enough, really, to know anything about motorcycles, but I was totally enthralled by that film. I see that someone posted it on YouTube.

I didn’t know vinyl sleeves were so awesome and was pleasantly surprised. This year I got a player and for my birthday, my parents bought me every single vinyl on my Amazon list... Imagine what it felt like for a rock fan to open one album after another: Some Girls, Exile on Main St, Physical Graffiti, Naturally, Led…

This is a 100% inaccurate description from someone who has clearly never played the game.

Having just purchased a Nintendo Switch, I would now disagree with that statement (although in the past I was all for Nintendo going third-party). Their hardware isn’t spec-impressive, but as a functional whole it does enhance the player experience. I love the fact that I can play Zelda at home, then un-dock it and…
