I was going to ask the same thing, this is worse than throwing in dump where it will decompose and hundreds of years.

The author must be keeping record somewhere of those things. You can't just remember that stuff over the years. If that's the case, maybe the problem is with you.

I had couple of those things but can't really tell the details. You're not happy, just let go and move on, don't even need to send notice, just don't show up the next day.

It's like saying, how the people who invented a knife and provide a way to cut fruit feel about criminals and other bad people using their products to kill people.

That finger is for Nvidia. There is a chinese proverb that say: "When the sage points at the moon, the fool looks at the finger.".

Nvidia is the problem here, not the finger.

The problem with "basic courtesy" is that you need to understand other people's culture/background/personal life to make it "correct". There are people who will be offended just by criticizing their code, not their personal life.

I kinda prefer Linus's method as you know what will happen to you if you don't verify/validate (a kind of respect to everybody's time) before submitting.

Just as a clarification, I mean by bullshit those meetings and meetings about the meetings, too many tools as in you have to attend stand-up, send status reports, update bug tracking, update timesheet.

If I have to manage a project myself, I would have: 1. bug tracking with timesheet (timesheet not for figuring how much you worked but to give a cost idea of future project). 2. source control 3. meetings as needed but needs to be scheduled and has a subject and time. So screw standup. Standups I've being part of previously was about glorifying what you did yesterday and what you will be doing today. A kind of, I don't trust you, give me some bullshit. 4. management needs to stay away, they need to go move furniture if they don't have anything to do. I know some people might be offended by this.
