We have 3 billion “letters” in our DNA, and this study looked at, literally, three of them. As a study design, that’s excellent; they’re testing a specific hypothesis.

It’s super important to recognize that people didn’t hit their targets (which is why I made sure to point it out!) but that doesn’t make this a garbage study.

I’m glad that there is a bit of a backlash against the hegemony of ipa beers. I like some of them, but brewers in the US are ignoring an entire world of beers by focusing all their efforts on ipas. After a while they all start to blend together, with nary a mention for other beers.

Never have tax issues by over paying!

Let me start by saying that as far as I’m concerned I think people should drink whatever they want made by whomever they want.

It’s a feedback loop. They can call someone for mansplaining and if the man does ANYTHING other than politely accept the accusation, they are then further guilty of mansplaining. It’s a tactic to control the interaction. The example above is simply patronizing condescension and happens all the time to men/women by men…

As it is Kanban I really do not use “story points” or associate numerical values with them. Instead I use T-shirt sizes (see this link https://www.scrumalliance.org/community/articles/2016/january/agile-estimation-techniques) . I size average things like this

Sweet article. Also it’s pronounced JIF.

“Help”

Is it flaunting literary privilege to say that anyone going into a production of 1984 without some idea of what they’re going to see deserves what they get?
