Why Scrum Is Stressing You Out
  • I don't explicitly disagree with any of the points, but I think that the mini deadlines at least lead to a successful outcome rather than a failed project.

    The example is steering a ship or driving a car - you need to look at the map or the road at regular intervals (even if they are "false deadlines") to make sure you're on track.

    I'm on the highway, there's no corner coming up for ages so I don't need to look at the road for a few minutes -- dead person

    Scrum/Agile gets a lot of negative press these days, but I haven't seen a practical alternative yet. Enlighten me if you know of the perfect project management system 🙂‍↕️ - I'd genuinely like to figure something out.

  • The Worst TV Show Finales
  • They changed the format in the last season and did a bunch of smaller myths and the build-team was less involved. They basically knew they weren't going to do any more, so none of the cast were invested.

  • How do you find the center of two concentric circles with just a straightedge?
  • Since this is a practical application (and many straightedge problems don't allow measuring), you could do the same but with two parallel chords.

    Bisect both chords and the line formed by those points must also pass through the centre.

  • How do you find the center of two concentric circles with just a straightedge?
  • Scribe a tangent to either circle. A line perpendicular to the tangent that passes through the intersection of the tangent must pass through the centre. Do it twice and where those two lines intersect is the centre point.

    Not sure if that will work for your practical application - getting it truly perpendicular might be hard.

    Am I a noob for not being able to find and replace /n?

    When I copy some long string like json from a debugger, and want to look at it properly formatted it starts off encoded with /n and /t characters, etc.

    I usually go:

    • Replace (Normal) /n -> qqqq
    • Replace (Extended) qqqq -> /n

    Is there some trick to do this in one step?

    Elegoo Saturn burnt out LEDs - where can I get a replacement?

    Had a long series of failed prints, tried levelling, replacing parts, nothing worked.

    Finally by chance I noticed that the LED matrix had burnt out/broken LEDs.

    But where can I get a replacement? Can you do one module at a time or do I need a whole new unit?

    Zero downtime migration options with AWS RDS

    Usual story - joined a startup and their production database is a single instance RDS running 11.3.

    We can't upgrade or scale or even change configuration without taking the database offline. We want to move everything to an Aurora Postgres compatible cluster that can scale horizontally.

    What options do we have? I've used Bucardo in the past to do one-way sync, but how is it at multi-master replication? What would you use for this task?

    2010 X1 replacement intercooler connection, how much should it cost?

    Hi, the other day our 2010 M1 xDrive diesel made a loud pop - sounded like a backfire - and the "reduced engine capacity" warning came up on the console. Car still drives, but it has way less power.

    Someone suggested it could be the intercooler connection to the turbo. Has anyone else had this happen, and how expensive is it to replace?
