• Where can I find cheap or free vintage computers/parts?

  Ebay probably. Try https://winworldpc.com/home for old software. Source: about 1 year ago

• add this link to the megathread please (has some old games, along with apporiate operlating systems to run them in the first place, e.g ISOs of Windows 95)

  I found a good website, I recommeed it, because there's no viruses, and it's just games and old OSes, I found DOS, which is good for most retro games from the 80's to the 90's https://winworldpc.com, I have gotten working windows 95 floppies, but there's also ISOs as well, sorry for the miss-spellings, but google chrome is crap when it comes to spell-check, which freaking doesn't work.

• I have got to get this computer running for a project, what do I do?

  Https://winworldpc.com/home will have all of the os you need. Source: over 2 years ago

• Was given this for free. So far I know it's an AMD k6-2. Boots and seems to detect an hdd but doesn't load an OS. Research is ongoing.

  A good start would be if you have another computer with a CD writer to get yourself a Windows ISO of your choice from WinWorldPC, burn it and boot that on this awesome machine. Source: over 2 years ago

  We think GitReport could replace standup apps like Geekbot. So we're making it into a product. More Git features are coming, like tracking issues and pull requests. Source: 9 months ago

• Agile / Scrum

  We run standups every day, however only 2x of them are a Teams call. The other 3 are run using a tool called Geekbot (Yes scrum masters do hate this) which is basically just a chatbot that sends you the standard standup questions and you can answer whenever you feel like it.

• What do you really think of your daily standup?

  My new job recently pulled in https://geekbot.com/ to handle stand ups. Answer a couple basic questions when you login, and they’re all sent to a central channel. I’m not big on that type of communication in general, but it takes maybe 30 seconds each morning. Source: over 1 year ago

• As an IC, is there anything I can do about super cheerful team members using up meetings time?

  We use Geekbot to help standups. The feedback from each dev goes into a channel, then we talk about things that need to be addressed or things we're working on. Source: over 1 year ago

• Scrum Has Failed the Developers

  Back in 2005, I remember working on startups running on Scrum principles. It worked well at the time, we where able to ship, grow the team, and move forward with a nice few-features-per-week cadence, working remotely, on a small team; less than 10. Tt always worked fine, but very slow, as all-dev-things were at the time.
