in addition to the padding on my headphones going it seems the wiring is getting screwy and the sound is going in and out on one ear. time to request the exact same pair of headphones for the holidays
Shameful pursuits and utterly stupid opinions

Take cash, go hangout with real friends instead of work friends.
I mean...yeah. I on occasion will hit a happy hour with a couple of work friends, but for the most part I don’t want any part of a company wide event. I’ll go to the office Xmas party, but only because it’ll help me get a raise.

12 years later I still get hassled about not going to the office xmas party with a bunch of drunk 50 year old women.
I've already got my excuses sorted for leaving early / not drinking
1) cats to feed
2) bus travel disrupted by road works
3) still recovering from cold
4) early train in the morning for a 5.5hr trip to parents' place

I wonder what the top tier pokemon are these days let's see...
Um. That's a "dragapult." It's a ghost/dragon. It appears to be a dragon with the head of a stealth bomber with tiny versions of itself loaded as missiles.
Pokemon what the hell.

Does anybody have an app somewhat more lightweight than a full-blown citation manager that allows us to archive full-text-searchable Reader Mode webpages?
I've been getting bit by link rot more often than usual lately
Hrm, so tomorrow, do I stream Halo Reach, Phoenix Point, or Twitch Sings like normal? Phoenix Point looks super cool, Halo Reach on my PC looking all shinied up is pretty tempting, but I'd wanna do that co-op I'm guessing.

Those are actually it's first level evolution (Dreepy). The dex entry is that they love being fired out of the canons on its head.
I have a required training in Agile principles and something called "Scaled Agile Framework" how bored will I be at this training [chat]?
Luckily its in a week. But it is also screwing up a planned fun working lunch with my team. So that sucks.
oh god my co. is a recent SAFe devotee
problem: the sprints exist to be interrupted. When I look at the weekly items list on random dev teams, more than half are must-do-by-this-week raised from sales and QA; the generic "work on small corrective patches" item is permanently swamped. None of the sprint teams are isolated, and priority feedback from sales and QA directly to devs is common
I'm convinced that SAFe is buzzword salad. it really needs to emphasize what is not SAFe rather than what it theoretically is, but that would entail hard choices

life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies
Dating is running head first into a wall and telling yourself it will hurt less the next time

It's worth it when you meet someone(s) you really like, though!
I did meet someone I really like
Turns out that is even worse

My impression of SAFe is that a bunch of the old-guard managers, accountants and project leaders got together and decided that this whole, "lets invest in a long-term multi-discipline team that can reliably estimate their output without the fear or pressure of putting a real-world time stamp on the estimate." didn't allow them to micro manage, and/or make pretty graphs, so they just disappeared good agile principles and instead put the old waterfall and bad management practices in their place with different names.

The perfect solution
I'm not one to kink shame, but if you're not comfortable not using contraception you can just elect not to do it

Still accurate nearly 20 years later

Don't worry the end of the game flies by.
Also don't forget to go back to the Slumbering Weald after credits.

Fuck Joe Manchin
Mostly because he retired four seasons ago.
He’s in his Colts jersey, too.
I absolutely do not want to go to Vegas
Why can't we have it in LA like last year? Because people complained, also HQ is in LA. Also also apparently people from LA just fucking love Vegas
Gonna be a looong week.

So I guess that's one way to avoid the whole Madden Cover Curse.
But it is.

you will be super bored
we do safe
our implementation sucks, not sure if that's because the framework is bad or because business people really don't like agile
I want a switch and waited for sale season and the sales just... never came
Oh well. Still can’t afford it all at full price

I am still not sure what the hell I am even doing.
It has been described in a way that I think I am like a data architect? Maybe programming? Maybe leading a team?
I legit am not sure what.
No one else is sure either.
Both.
The framework is bad because business people incompetent managers/MBAs really don't like agile.
