I find that not one methodology fits for all needs, hence the need for various. SDLC, Agile, SCRUM, etc... depending on upper management and what they "understand" as being the methodology that will save them money is what they will implement and use/force down to us pawns.
In my humble opinion, albeit all have their benefits, I think that the system chosen should be flexible to accommodate what you are managing. Production line manufacturing, down to simple app design for the latest in-style/market hype. Some may like agile boards to see where the stage of development is, yet others like Gantt charts, while still others like simple list of tasks completion and percentages with charts. For now, management will decide which we follow.
This gives me an idea for an app....

DevOps is now picking up the baton and trying to bluff management into thinking we don't need an SDLC.
That's the best definition of Agile and DevOps I've ever read!

Bitly is a cloud service, with an automated API that you can use software to automatically create shortened links to stuff. The rocket scientists who invented it apparently never heard of spam bots before, so now the entire service is predictably overrun with spammers.
I've had to go to online communities I haunt and have them add the links to their spam filters. They are almost never legitimate.

Link shorteners like bit.ly are pure evil.
Given that you're going to click on a link, not type it in, they serve no useful purpose.
They only serve to disguise malware of all sorts.
I never follow shortened links.

It's important to me to carve a poem into the hide of time each 13-lunation cycle ... perhaps, a homeopathic remedy for suicidal ideation.
Often the poem is a long-winded, excessively metaphysical, collage of recursive obscurities

I don't actually enjoy B&B. It literally was the first thing that came to my immature and infantile mind.
