As i am a lone Ranger on my Project i scrum a lot and work very agile.
I talk to myself in a lot of situations to discuss changes with me, sometimes we come to a good idea and transport it directly to developementteam me.
I iterate through Projectstates after several tasks are done. In these Iterations i have meetings with myself to check if we are on the plan or if there are any showstoppers on the tasks.
New concepts and stuff are developed meanwhile be me to assure the functionality is sufficient for the users.
Sometimes i am lucky and get one or two of the guys that need to work with that system, then i can ask if it's okay like its done, they agree to everything 
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

Code reviews. You need some code reviews and twomof you should start doing pair programming.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."
If software development were a circus, we would all be the clowns.

Oh dear you are right, i need codereviews!
But since me and my other half are sticking to CLEAN CODE most of the code should be a ok.
Yeah maybe i train both hands on fully programming and rock of on two pc's to meet capacity needs 
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");

I have only been on one team in, say, eight years, where we didn't use basic, non-religious, scrum. OK, one other team we used Kanban, but I think that's close enough to scrum. For the non-religious, that is. It's always been good, and at least felt better than more formal processes; I don't know whether business felt as good as the developers though.

It is a shite way of working.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

Agile is good and I like it. Most people have a hard time with it though, for whatever reason, and thus, don't really implement the methodology well. Eventually, they are no longer practicing Agile anymore, and they are back to their old habits. 
I have used Rally for managing our user stories and defects.

I find they're the best habits to have. One is so much more comfortable with them.

I work across multiple teams running scrum and kanban, mostly it works well and I quite like it as long as the people working on it are pragmatic and stick to core principles instead of religiously sticking to the text book. We're using Team Foundation Server for backlog management, boards etc...

I'm pretty much identical to you. Multi teams, Scrum, TFS, pragmatic, generally like it...

Every day we have a meeting where we are not allowed to say anything of substance. Even though I tell them everyday I do not need help I have to say that every day now I just say something like did this, no road blocks no help needed.
Then once a week we have a session where everything that was said that morning is repeated.
We pay large money for a certified scrum master who would not know an html document from a squirrel.
No credit is ever given to the developer and at one point we were told that everyone is a developer. Therefore no one is a developer.
Hate is far to weak.
Scrum means take your coding time away from you.
The BA designed the lay out of an ASPX page and demanded that the labels for the radio button list be above the buttons.
The purpose of the agile team is to stop the development of software and deprecate developers.

Well, building it is.
I am quite surprised at how easy Python is to build. Run a batch script then open the solution file and build. That's it.
It would be nice if all open source projects were this easy to build/use.
The only hiccups I have had are the batch files for Python 2.7.9 failing with newer TCL/TK versions, so I had to run the nmake commands manually.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.

You mean building the compiler?

Yup. Building the Python Compiler/Interpreter/Runtime/etc. It just works™.

WE, THE PEOPLE OF INDIA, having solemnly resolved to constitute India
into a SOVEREIGN DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC and
to secure to all its citizens:
JUSTICE, social, economic and political;
LIBERTY of thought, expression, belief, faith and worship;
EQUALITY of status and of opportunity;
and to promote among them all
FRATERNITY assuring the dignity of the individual and the unity of the Nation;
Constitutions tend to be just so much hot air. I suppose there's a reason you didn't post this in the Soapbox.
I guess it's the ideal that counts, eh?

Mostly that I didn't consider it political in the least, and felt the momentary need to tell the joke in the headline.
Don't worry, I won't bother your eye space further (today)
