Again, Agile has no specific leadership. It is a model, for lack of a better word, for self-organizing teams where all participants are the same as all others. It is lead by the shared collective of all taking part. That's its while de

To be fair, modern university was originally sold on the idea of getting more people into university research labs where they could work to develop and take ownership of new capital. This is where the idea that you will make more money if y

I am under the impression that Jira is a really poorly designed text editor, with the addition of boxes that can be dragged around to serve as a fidget toy for those who have nothing better to do.

Iterative development is Royce's "Waterfall" model. It long predates Agile. Agile is about eliminating management in favour of self-organizing teams. Hence how we ended up with all these tools (standups, Jira, etc.) to try an

Sorry, referring to the internet as "education" is a new one to me. I agree, that is the point of the internet. I thought you were talking about formal education.

Why would it be strange? We recognized that we were in an information economy 50-plus years ago, and were quite proud of it (at least back then). It turns out people don't buy information to stick in their storage locker. Without atten

If public transportation is beneficial to a city, you've already missed the ideal mark by a long shot. The ideal city has no need for movement of people over distances where mechanical movement is the only practical option.
