knodi··on Starfish bodies aren’t bodies at all, study finds
Thank you.

I'm more confused about it then before.

Logically I get Star Wars/Dune is science fantasy but wouldn't that make Star Trek also science fantasy as wrap drive is never explained (and when it is its not rooted in reality) and how teleport-er is using magic to reassemble atoms at another location? I get it that Expanse and Three Bodied Problem are SciFi but how can the the two categories be quantified in to words?

This is way off topic and i'll stop here. thank you for sending me down a rabbit hole.

knodi··on It’s time to embrace slow productivity (2022)
The changing requirements part is mystifying part of Agile. How do you build the a proper foundation without knowing the base requirements it needs to support day one and plan for day 30/60/90/365 days needs. Its almost like its written by the PO/PM without really understanding anything else but their slice of work and how they can make it easier for them.

Money and time (for us humans) are finite, big things at lease have to be targeted precise efforts, a good plan and architecture that maps back and supports the requirements.
