1611·8 months agoThe materials needed to produce batteries and wind turbines and maintain them over time is the issue. Did your 62 page report discuss this?
Nah. It doesn’t say not to plan. It says to prefer responding to change over planning. Which means both happen but responding to change is more crucial. Or put another way don’t let your plan get in the way of responding to change.
I’m sure you were being sarcastic, but I get kind of tired of the Agile strawman and people shitting on it. It’s not a complex philosophy yet people extrapolate so much (too much) and then get annoyed when their assumptions don’t pan out well. even performing sprints is an extrapolation, so this meme gets it wrong too.

Exactly. I was trying to be conservative by choosing only 6 and sticking to the cheaper plans.
But it is entirely conceivable today that, if someone has literally all the subscriptions, they could be paying more than cable costs.
Another factor I ignored for brevity is, at least when I was a kid, the price of cable was often bundled with Internet and telephone services. I can’t speak to how accurate the numbers would be, but I’m pretty sure my dad was paying $100+ for cable and everything else, meaning the cable likely wasn’t the entire cost of the bill. But I digress…
Streaming has gotten out of hand, and anyone who disagrees with me today will eventually agree within a decade.
But the direction is certainly heading towards the realm of cable prices…
- Netflix: $15.49
- Amazon Prime Video: $14.99
- Apple TV+: $6.99
- HBO Max: $15.99
- Disney+: $10.99
- Hulu: $14.99
Total: $79.44 per month
So maybe when you account for inflation it is still only half of what cable costs,.perhaps. but those are the cheaper plans. For HDR support for Netflix it’s like $25, and it’s the reason I cancelled Netflix.
I don’t think the meme is dumb, just ahead of it’s time, but it’s calling out what is certainly happening.
Most streaming services now include ads in the paid subscription.
Inch the ad ratio and prices up another 40% and we are getting pretty close to cable experience/cost. And that’s only a few years away when we look at how much costs have raised over the last 10 yrs.
If each service raises price $1/month every year and you have 6 services, then in 5 yrs you’re paying $30 more per month, prob around $100+.

The logic is bugging me, though. It should be
if isFirstAttempt || !isPasswordCorrectI understand the meme is trying to convey in spite of being correct to still return an error, but then it doesn’t account for when the password is actually incorrect.
So that you can self host I think
Not to mention the creator of GIF prefers the JIF pronunciation.
It doesn’t really matter, but I find the hard g folks have a stick up their ass about it.
I still left Reddit and unity and haven’t returned. Some people do care. Not everyone is indifferent.
Eh … I think MLMs are much worse than life coaches. At least life coaches do actually (usually) want to help people. They just aren’t therapists.
People who do MLMs are just greedy, stupid, or both.
I agree life coach is generally a dumb profession, but it is an actual, authentic profession unlike MLM.
Probably it’s more comparable to chiropractor vs physical therapy. But chiropractor can actually physically hurt you, so to me that’s worse than a life coach potentially giving bad advice.
Thanks! That’s all I was looking for… appreciate you!
Who else will fall for propaganda (not saying this is that) unless a source or more info is given?
Idk… I’m fine with political memes, but a source should be included…OP should leave a comment after posting with more info.
I’m not a Stallone fan at all, have no bias towards him. And that’s my goal, is to retain an unbiased opinion on this stuff. I could google it but then so does everyone else, some of which won’t.
Here’s a source I found, maybe it will help someone else. You’re welcome OP. Maybe next time do this yourself.
Tbh I know this isn’t helpful, but I recommend take the L and find better games to play. Errantly perma banning users shows a lack of consumer consideration and does not deserve further energy to fix. They fucked up, take your business elsewhere.
Again, I know it’s not helpful but I think worth considering. Companies some decades ago used to be user experience as the top goal, but that has gone to the sidelines for many companies, and I don’t think it’s good to normalize. Hence, boycott when it happens.
