When the low rolling character convinces the high rolling one, that they are seeing things, the real fun begins.

Very well written. I'd only change something about this paragraph:

  • Operated without production interruption even with frequent team member exit during critical phases of operation

Sounds like people were quitting on you because of terrible work conditions you fostered. An alternative could be:

  • Operated without production interruption even with occasional unexpected or planned team member absences during critical phases of operation

Fair enough. No more questions on your dissertation from my end.

“greater than" and "less than" are missing the "or equal to". A difference of exactly 1 should be sufficient for an absolute victory. I'm also missing a definition of what negative numbers on an axis mean, since they are currently implied to reach absolute victories and are not excluded by the definition. I'll show myself out 😅

The original author of git flow begs to differ. But hindsight is always 20/20 https://nvie.com/posts/a-successful-git-branching-model/

If you use feature flags, don't forget to remove them after some grace period. Almost everything bad about feature flags that you can read online is related to long-lived feature flags and all the dead code and complexity involved. Adding a feature flags without a commitment and plan to remove them (the flag, not the feature), is asking for trouble down the line.

You can implement public or semi public ledgers without Blockchain. That's what banks are doing already by sending huge CSV files internally and externally. Blockchain is not a technology of zero trust. It's close to the opposite. You trust a few peers and blindly trust everyone they trust. That way you trust a network that you know nothing about and if the network decides on a common truth that you are convinced is incorrect, there is nothing you can do about it. The consensus always wins and there is no single entity to complain to and get it fixed. This is great for making sure that many actors need to be bad actors in order to have the whole system fail. It's bad if you don't trust anyone and want to make sure that your standards are always observed. From a technology standpoint I love the concept of Blockchain. But use cases that are not forced are few and far apart. Too few for the amount of hype it receives.

It depends. Some hardware degrades gracefully while my current desktop system won't even boot and throws error codes on an empty battery. It took me hours to figure out what was wrong the first time it happened.

Please always add the person who is quoted. These are Trump's words, while we are discussing what many Republicans are publicly claiming. Of course Trump wants to go way further.

Stimme ich voll zu. Ich hatte nie realisiert wie schlimm die Situation ist, bis ich mit Kinderwagen unterwegs war.

This argument is extremely disingenuous. The Republicans claim that a president has immunity unless investigated and impeached by Congress. And this is exactly what they are fruitlessly flailing around, trying to do. So this is not the gotcha the meme claims it is.

Mein Sozialkundelehrer war Stadtrat und hat immer Mal aus dem Nähkästchen geplaudert. Er sagte uns, dass Knöllchen fast ein Nullsummenspiel sind (Einnahmen vs Gehälter der Mitarbeitenden, Verwaltungsaufwand, etc.). Dennoch hatte der Stadtrat für mehr Kontrollen gestimmt, jedoch offensichtlich nicht aus den Gründen, die die Bürger ihnen vorwarfen.
