I have my own (and many) criticisms of Scrum, but this article is so poorly written that I cannot say whether the author's views align with my own. I couldn't make it beyond the first few paragraphs.
I'd take anything Guo Wengui says about the Chinese gov't with a grain of skepticism. Steve Bannon has been running around promoting Guo's story as part of the larger anti-China Trumpist narrative.
Treehouse’s abandonmnent of the 4-day work week suspiciously coincided with their taking on a Series B round of funding. I’m implying they were pressured to drop it by investors. This was followed by significant layoffs.
Furthermore, no formal analysis was done of the Treehouse experience.
Nothing conclusive can be inferred from the Treehouse experience until/unless they release data and a rigid analysis is done.
I fail to see the point of this article. Apple should have thought twice before launching Apple Pay because the author feels this guys is a rising star? We should feel bad for him because the world's most valuable company validated his startup's thesis? Come on.
Met Ruan and John at the Hack Reactor open house two weeks ago. Super nice guys and Smidge is a great concept. Really happy to see it get some recognition.
Well, this is how our system works. There is nothing stopping me from filing suit against you for posting this comment because it hurt my feelings. Then the judge throws it out because there's no basis in the law for my claim.
Motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim? Including reading the complaint, researching and drafting an answer, and associated communications, figure 30 hours of attorney time.
Wilmer Hale? Figure $400/hr.
$12K to respond to a claim so frivolous that it was dismissed instantly in the friggin' Eastern District of Texas.
Hope RedHat can get some fees back from these fools.
