"How to Rob a Bank" is entertaining... Whenever things are actually happening; the action sequences are pretty good. Beyond that, its attempts at characterization are clunky, and its belief it's saying anything profound is almost quaint.

On ways to increase freedom to operate. More leverage and speed lead to better results, as long as it's for the users.

This having tangible results already compels me more than nigh all fluff I've read on clankers making current best practices "obsolete". Trying it on my next side project & sharing it at work. If naught else, I like how dynamic (un-bureaucratic) it sounds.

My experience with clankers has been similar to this, and do enjoy this form of work... But I don't know, I can't escape the feeling that something is missing.

Now I understand why so many are saying they don't bother reading the generated code or tests anymore. I still strongly disagree, not (only) because my experience with clankers is significantly less... encouraging, but at least I know why it's happening.

Good to know how hiring has changed, on some places, due to clankers, and what has stayed the same.

"Wild Horse Nine" has only one frequency: Malkovich says something "outrageous" but "darkly comedic", and Rockwell reacts in befuddlement. It does this over and over amidst lots of treading water. Some nice shots, I guess.

Some great advice on faster delivery. The 70% thing and avoiding guesswork I definitely need to apply more.

Effective, and faster, responsible disclosure is ever more important.

"El Despertar" (2026) está bien hecha y tiene algunos visuales impactantes, pero la historia es desordenada y sin rumbo, incluso teniendo en cuenta el cambio de eras.

Most, if not all, advice is not universal. Especially on learning, gotta try different approaches.

Alright, Pattinson and Hoult have both the looks and the talent; either would be fine... But I'd rather Bond be an unknown, so I still hope Lowden gets it.
Unless he's terrible I guess. Will have to watch a movie of his.
Of the Bond options, I hope Lowden gets it. I haven't really seen him in anything, but I have seen the other two, and neither is precisely Laurence Olivier, and he at least looks the part.

Everything is possible (or nothing is).

Everything needs protocols or open interfaces, to avoid lock-in. Clankers are no exception.
