1: Climate change and the media.
2019 was a year of climate change debate and activism. Powerful commentators at Sky News and News Corp have sought to dismiss the links between climate change, droughts and bushfires.

"How to effectively scope your software projects" - Angela Zhang medium.freecodecamp.org/how-…
ALT “Think of project time estimates as probability distributions, not best-case scenarios. Instead of telling someone that a feature will be finished in 6 weeks, tell them something like ‘there’s a 50% likelihood of finishing the feature in 4 weeks, and a 90% chance we’d finish it in 8 weeks.’ This tends to force people to be more realistic.” from “How to effectively scope your software projects” by Angela Zhang.
I've been lucky to join Deputy at an incredibly exciting time... – at Sydney, New South Wales
We are proud to announce that we have closed an $81 million USD in Series B funding, led by @IVP! This will allow us to expand our team, keep launching more great features and let even more people know about Deputy: bit.ly/2Q1vqZA

Really enjoyed day 1! Pressure is on now to finish in time for presentations but the real sense of achievement will come from helping @HillsCarPal. I'm also loving getting back to writing some code. It's been way too long! nitter.gq/hillscarpal/status/100… – at Sydney, New South Wales

This focus on digital wellbeing from @Google might be enough to tempt me back to Android. Now I just need to weigh up their latest privacy policies, I wonder how long it would take me to read both? wellbeing.google/

Agile is no more or less than
* work in small increments
* get feedback
* take engineering seriously
If someone tells you it’s more than this, they are trying to sell you something.
If someone tells you it’s less, they don’t understand agile.
