AGILE Anonymous 19-09-24 21:00:46 No.26434[Reply]

Is AGILE a meme?
>Agile software development is an umbrella term for approaches to developing software that reflect the values and principles agreed upon by The Agile Alliance, a group of 17 software practitioners in 2001.

I think agile is overrated and has become a way for consultants to grift and every response to the failure of an agile project is "it wasn't AGILE enough, it didn't truly have managerial buy in" rather than admitting something is wrong with it.

Agile has some good principles. Capitalism or corporate life tends to take anything and turn it into it's opposite lol. It becomes a rigid way of working that makes things move slow.

There is always a vehement agile-hater present, and they are always correct. (If you didn't post, I would have.)
All of these methodologies become antipatterns when misapplied anyway. There is no one-size-fits-all.

Agile is just micromanagement

<the daily meeting is to get you to say that you will finish something asap and when it isn't finished in the time "WE committed to" to humiliate you in public for being a slacker
<the "sprint" structure is to get you to commit to releasing a pre-determined (feature is urgent, has to be released asap, business growth depends on it) amount of work in 2 weeks max.
<since agile is about "empowering developers", you are now empowered to commit to releasing what is needed in 2 weeks and if you can't business fails because of you. You committed to release in 2 weeks, why isn't it there?
<how fast or slow you do the work is represented by the "velocty" of the "burndown chart" or something which if it doesn't look as expected, is hard data indicating that you aren't working hard enough.
<bug-fixing is simply not a thing because why are there bugs? the requirement was explained to you in endless hours long planning, grooming, stand-up, retrospective, governance, compliance, review, etc. meetings. if there are bugs it means that you aren't doing the job properly. how hard can it be when AI can produce the same code in minutes.
<if the changes made in the sprint do not produce the intended business gains in the next month/quarter, was the change really needed? who authorized it?

>but le waterfall!! my aGiLe tRaNsFoRmAtIoN "empowered developers" to "deliver value" and "scale up" to "unicorn status"

>it's better than any other approach

The Downfall of Alternative Frontends Glownonymous 26-12-24 18:39:17 No.27991[Reply]

Just wanted to share a very good article/blog I found on the recent ramping of big tech attacks against APIs and alternative frontends. Let's discuss possible ways of dealing with this in the best of ways. I have personally been relying on these since they appeared, for several years.

https://denshi.org/blog/the-downfall-of-alternative-frontends/
>It seems like just yesterday, everyone was using and recommending privacy-friendly and open-source frontends to popular social media sites. Every major website had one of these: Twitter had Nitter, Reddit had Libreddit and Teddit, YouTube had Invidious and Piped, Instagram had Bibliogram and TikTok had ProxiTok. Even sites like Medium, Imgur and Quora were no exception, with open source frontends being developed for them as well. To go with all these frontends, there were various browser extensions like libredirect that would automatically redirect any social media link to its open-source frontend counterpart.
>However, within the past year or so, nearly all of these frontends have been discontinued or rendered practically unusable. What happened?

if you use tor in any way at all, you're as likely to be monitored as if you used it for everything. the only difference is your tor traffic will consist of things you don't want your isp to see, making it more of a target.
>with Firefox I can mod the fuck out of it with userChrome.css
just run the tor daemon and configure it as a proxy in firefox

>Isn't this even worse as I'll make my Tor browsing a lot more easy to track?
as i alluded to in >>28621 the tor projects insistence on a unalterable stock configuration is more fud than anything. from this angle you're deanonymized at any point where you deviate from the average tech-illiterate person's browsing experience. if you enabled all of firefox's anti-fingerprinting features, use a good adblocker/umatrix and maybe spoof your user-agent, you should be as anonymous as it gets, sans whatever they patch into the tor browser. making your browser non-persistent, having an addon periodically clear all cached/site data and disabling sessionstore altogether are also good ideas.

ITT we list non-chromium, non-firefox browsers

It doesn't have to be a "good alternative", the point is to look into alternatives and then assess them.

I'll start with ones I can think of off the top of my head:
- konqueror (kde, seems to support multiple engines, supports plugins, didn't have ublock last time I tried it)
- surf (suckless, but at least it's moddable at compile)
- lynx (invisible island, sixel support, cookie support)
- links
- w3m (might have sixel support idk, don't remember if it does cookies but probably, supports some html tags better than lynx)
- curl (prints file from url to stdout) to pipe into other stuff
- wget (downloads file from url)

not really as an user but I remember when I was writing my web renderer it was one of the codebases I used as reference. like with many old codebases I feel like developers back then weren't as concerned about readability and maintainability as we are today, so these codebases can be kind of hard to work with

OpenZFS Glownonymous 07-03-25 09:38:05 No.28675[Reply]

Does anyone here have experience with OpenZFS? The port for Windows specifically.

I'm considering changing my external hard drives to ZFS for its checksum capabilities, but there's a big catch - I need to be able to read the drives on Windows. A quick look at OpenZFS and I'm under the impression it's unreliable and I shouldn't try it in "production".

Thoughts?

Glownonymous 07-03-25 11:01:17 No.28676

For ZFS in general, consider using raid instead, which has better support, and keep in mind scrubs can impact hdd longevity.

Glownonymous 07-03-25 11:20:54 No.28678

~~>>28677~~
If you're planning to mosty going to use it as cold storage, vfat+raid would also be worth considering. In contrast to ntfs and exfat it has native rw support on nearly every system, though speed and error recovery will suffer.
