I can chime in.

My wife is from Germany, and I'm from Portugal, we both speak English with each other which is easier (DE is very hard for me to learn), but she talks DE with the little one and I talk PT with him.

He can speak perfectly DE, PT, and English depending on which language he listens to, which is quite impressive for me as a parent.

He can even maintain a proper conversation and do translations between languages.

Sometimes he adds a word from another language in a phrase but he seems to know what that word is in the correct language.

Never had problems installing any major Linux dist, but 15 years ago I still remember the boring and time consuming on patching the kernel with custom patches so that my wi-fi card or gfx card could work.

I stopped trying to use Linux as a desktop OS since then. But recently I tried for fun installing Ubuntu and everything just worked out of the box.

I still feel Linux is too fragmented, too many package managers, too many UI managers etc...but that's part of the beauty of it I guess.

And at a reasonable price. Thank you for sharing this.

I think the author completely misses the point or never worked in a proper agile team.

Imagine running a marathon without mile markers. Sprints are like mile markers they help you know and adjust your velocity and capacity to reach the end goal.

Without these sorts of tools you are just running without any sense of achievement or tuning to your teams performance.
