I have worked for a company that considered “velocity” to be the most important measurement of individual performance. Their code was awful. #agile #scrum #software #programming View quoted note →

“There's no question that, as AI has surged in popularity, we have entered an era where code lines are being added faster than ever before. The better question for 2024: who's on the hook to clean up the mess afterward?” #AI #orogramming #software #GitHubCopilot

Baby Face (Alfred E. Green, 1933). #BarbaraStanwyck plays Lily Powers, a young woman who works for her father Nick in an Erie, Pennsylvania speakeasy. Nick has been forcing her to have sex with the customers. After one customer introduces her to Nietzsche (specifically, Will to Power), Lily decides to use sex to get what *she* wants. She moves to New York City and immediately sleeps with a clerk in a bank’s personnel office to get a job. Then she proceeds to sleep with a chain of bosses to gain promotions, discarding each man when she’s through with him. (At one point, she even deliberately sabotages an engagement.) Lily’s plan works well . . . until one man refuses to be dumped, at which point the story takes a turn. This movie is a classic of #precode Hollywood. #filmstr #movies

There's something that's bothered me about The Bionic Woman for a long time. Before she became a cyborg, Jaime Sommers was one of the top professional tennis players in the world. How was she able work undercover for the OSI without being recognized? I could ask the same question about Steve Austin, who was, after all, an astronaut. #BionicWoman #TV

Untamed (Jack Conway, 1929). This is Joan Crawford’s first talkie feature, and she actually sings a couple of songs. It may also be the most violent romantic drama I’ve ever watched. Surprisingly good! #filmstr #movies #precode #JoanCrawford
