  • I loved being the scrum master but the responsibilities should be more than presenter.

    I had to deliver project status notes to product shareholders, let them know of any directional changes we had to take due to blockages, drive the team to deliver on time for product launch, manage the backlog workflow to ensure the dod was accomplished, manage the backlog and attribute 15% of it to housecleaning/bug fixes.





  • because that’s how capitalism works. PC hardware is so cheap and easy to make, the ROI is getting lower and lower each cycle.

    if they only sell access to the hardware, profits go up exponentially and potentially forever.

    this is why “x as a service” is used so much.

    it’s one of the reasons why windows 11 is so shitty. they’re using it as a playground to test the limits of what consumers will accept. the experience is so atrocious that the next version will likely be hosted as a virtual desktop through Azure that you pay for hourly.

    when it’s released, all the shitty things with 11 will be magically resolved and you’ll hear so many “reviews” talk about “how they listened to the end users and care about the user experience but it’s just not possible to deliver the great experience they want on consumer hardware”.

    it’s always about the money.
