"In 1980, 26.5% of German social democrat parliamentarians had held formal roles with a trade union, but by 1994 this had reduced by half... parliamentarians who held a formal role with the youth wing of the party amounted to 51% in 2017 – up from 13% in the early 1990s."

If Bernie isn't the Democratic nominee, I hope he runs as an independent (I doubt he will), because Trump isn't the enemy that needs to be defeated.
Of course, it's hard to blame them. The software development world continues to treat software as magic, not science, so there's no empirical evidence pointing toward the best development methods.
Software managers and their bosses never like to hear that the best answer is to start over, so they'll ignore such advice in favor of slipped schedules, undelivered promises, and unmaintainable software; then in ten years, they'll start over, often after the people wise enough to suggest it are long gone. #failureloop
Most of the software developers I've met who've embraced scrum are the same ones who think coding in 3GL is cool and software is an art and/or a craft.
...or...they're destined for management.
I've worked for both small companies and big companies. While it's easier to be a VIP in a small company, it's much easier to develop new interests in a big company.
In both cases you have to navigate entrenched bastions of mediocrity. In a small company, you might become stuck behind one; in a big company, you have more room to manuever around one, but there's many more to discover.

Voter suppression benefiting the DNC as much as the GOP. Do you really think the DNC will be in a hurry to fix it?

While even those who benefit the most from conventional corporations are turning against them, the cooperative sector is expanding rapidly.
Will this counter-economy reach a critical mass to replace modern capitalism?

All you have to know about what a Biden win means for working people is in the stock market bump. #letitburn
#dumbasses who write tests to fail items easily cleaned up with a script, that could be run by the tests.
I was hoping we could avoid the labor violence of the late 1800's - early 1900's, but it seems like voters are too stupid to turn the tide away from a growing wealth gap and increasing police state in the USA. #letitburn
So-called left-leaning voters who vote for right-leaning Biden deserve what's coming to them. Stupid Tuesday has shown that people haven't suffered enough in this country. #letitburn
