23·2 days agoA Linux phone won’t help with the problem side loading stopping problem.
Last time I used side loading was on a driving trip in Italy, I wanted the ZTA app so I could see where I wasn’t able to drive and plan routes that avoided ZTAs. A Linux phone wouldn’t have helped as no one would publish such an app for Linux unless the user population was in the tens of percentage
ZTAs are the no cars allowed areas, usually the middle of towns

You’re referring to quantum effects? Don’t worry about whether you’re not watching, the universe is watching. If one photon is emitted from the thing in a quantum state and hits anything, that’s the observation
That’s medicine. Science just sees it as a problem to be sorted by good study design and statistics
Most people believe red painkillers work better than other colours. Because of that when painkillers are tested, red ones work better (and red placebos also). You might find the placebo effect of red painkillers effective
Wheat was the first farmed plant, about 10k years ago, at least the first we can see in the archaeological record. I shouldn’t have said “bread” as that was at least hundreds of years later
I’m not sure whether the Nile region invented bread before they exported farming

2·9 days agoSome mouses have scroll wheels that click too easily. So when you scroll, you paste. In my collection of mouses the Logitech ones are fine, gaming mouses are the worst, and the one Microsoft mouse has no way to do a middle click

Scrum as mini waterfall isn’t supposed to happen, but it usually does. The idea is everyone can help the people will are currently busy
The problem is test and build can’t do much to help the system analysts; the analysts and testers can’t help build because they don’t usually know how to code, so all that happens is everyone tests when build is done
As an analyst I don’t do any testing because I had a bad team leader in a past job as a function tester which soured me on the job, so it’s pretty much mini waterfall to me
