@fribbledom Unit tests are a must, but test driven development is an error prone method of analysis. It's popular with "coders" (those who feel that code is their most important output), because it represents continuous coding. Management likes it, because they get to remove some of what they consider overhead in their processes. (i.e., it helps move coding closer to a manufacturing process than a knowledge process.)
The real problem is the loss of independent test.

That thing where you're told to work harder when you thought you were getting paid to work smarter.

@fatboy AMD needs to open source AMD Secure Technology before it can claim best CPUs for FOSS. At least Intel's Management Engine has been somewhat mitigated.
