Sftwre Product Mgmt: Agile Manifesto

Let’s talk about Agile for a second(in Software world). This will more of a ‘introductory’ post, as I myself am learning. 

Alright, what is Agile? (according to this Manifesto created by Agile legends):

Working software > comprehensive documentation. 

Customer collaboration > contract negotiation. 

Responding to change > following a plan.

Data! Science and Statistics.

Imagine that you have a large set of data with millions of rows and you're faced with the task of extracting information from the data. How do you make sense of a large set of data? The simple answer to this question is that we do so via data visualization, but what is that, exactly?In this series, we'll seek to answer that very question.

The places where that system breaks down have a mystery all their own.

When every acre on Earth is catalogued for us to see, where will all the mysteries hide?

The future belongs to those who work with, not against, the rising tide of technology.

True meritocracy is quite psychologically oppressive. Our failures and shortcomings hurt and depress us more than learning about our virtues. I think this is one of the troubling aspects of this new world where everything gets measured. People don’t really like that. They want to think that they’re better than they are. That they are more productive than they are. That they have maybe have a brighter future than they do.  The 'average' is over! Don’t learn to code, learn how to work with technology. If becoming a programmer is appealing to you, great. But seeking employment based on any one “hard skill” is an outdated way of thinking. The rapid evolution of technology forces us to constantly reconsider which hard skills are in demand. (And we should). Staying on top of the hard skills needed is a necessity in the short term, but one of the best ways to position yourself for success in the long term is to focus on the soft skills needed no matter what technology you are working with. Read more.

The smooth motion of rotating circles can be used to build up any repeating curve even one as angular as a digital square wave. Each circle spins at a multiple of a fundamental frequency, and a method called Fourier analysis shows how to pick the radiuses of the circles to make the picture work. Decomposing signals like this lies at the heart of a lot of signal processing. [more] [code]
