Use your HOSTS file to redirect it to something else?

Loopback... and install a web server to listen to it that redirects local back to FB... which redirects back... and so on. That'll teach me for typing in the FB URL.

While I can't understand how one became addict to FB - you have all my support...
Every time your fingers itches and try to write the URL, visit this[^] first...

There's the rub.
If any of you ever think of creating a social media app, at the top of your worry sheet, you should put:

That's step two... eventually... maybe... hopefully...

It's definitely a love hate relationship. I have friends on there that I wouldn't be able to contact otherwise.

This seems suspiciously like a pro-FB post, but I can't give you an angry face emoji because I like you. Oh, the confusion.

Not at all I'm trying to ween away from the FB teat myself. To much drama, baggage, bullshit and just false junk.
See you on FB!

I been through dozen places in my time, everyone is talking about it, even have policies written enforcing that they practice it, but when comes to the metal, a few actually do what they claimed. Most places where they called themselves fast-pace and agile are examples of not doing what was preached.
Does any place(shop) doing formal software engineering? Formal requirement, formal specification (yes I meant the difference documents in requirement and specification), formal design(UML stuff), code and more importantly formal software quality assurance. I know few places where they do them to concur with laws or government regulations.
Share your shop's experience.

I've never seen 100% formal agile in practice, in my experience at least. Personally, that's a good thing. Too much rigidity dehumanizes us. I mean, I understand the need for structure... believe me if a company got halfway there that's probably still better than most pretending to implement it.
Unfortunately, this doesn't just apply to agile.. this industry is a lot of fluff. So many experts that don't know what they're talking about, and only fool the even more clueless. Welcome to technology.

Nope. Everywhere I've been, it's pretty much a free for all when it comes to software development. The saving grace is that I've occasionally had the pleasure of working for and with people that I would call professionals, meaning that they are self-disciplined to formalize their own processes.

My company has to get FDA approval, so that requires a very stringent process. So yes, we're doing Agile and have a very detailed documentation process.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.
Ya can't fix stupid.

Illegal!!!
Agile does not allow documentation!!!
Yes, this was a troll.
Except I'm kind of serious. The code is the documentation in Agile.

Both ends of the spectrum are a bloody nightmare.
Rarely, however, you come across a place that has found the sweet spot, where the focus is mostly on getting the bloody code written and tested, rather than focusing on poorly-thought-out processes, and where a main part of the process is repetitively demanding requirements.
It's really simple:
0. Tell us what you want, in as much detail as you can.
1. OK, it's done.
2. Tell us what else you want, or what you want different.
3. Iterate 1-2
I will say, however, that the agile morning stand-up is an absolute treasure.
It might be a bit of a pain, but it gets the less communicative members of our community to at least tell everyone what they've done.

Frack, no. We don't have time for that; there's work to do, budget to spend. ![Badger | [badger,badger,badger,badger...]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/badger.gif)

Actually, agile places that don't formalize the process are doing exactly what they're preaching.

No, not really. Every job I have worked at the code was put together and then documented afterwards. And that includes defense work too, which is supposed to be designed formally.
In fact most non defense jobs there isnt any documentation, the design and test is all in the head of a few engineers.
