Good luck with that, Faceplant.
I block 100% of all Internet ads. Also, 100% of all radio, TV, telemarketer ads.
Any spam I get in the mail I use to start my wood-stove.
I pity the people who use that "service" and willingly give their private information to them.

If it comes to click the "like" buttons... surely neither moi.
The problem is, that I don't think it is even needed to click them

I just don't "like" anything! Simples!

I just shared your message on Facebook. They know you now. They're not happy. You best sleep with one eye open 
Seriously though, I signed up for Facebook about a year ago. I never wanted it because I believed you can't "sign up for friendship" and "I really don't need to know what you harvested in Farmville."
I won't say it's the best thing I ever did, because it isn't (signing up on here did my a lot more good!), but it isn't as bad as I thought it would be.
People actually share fun stuff (besides the kittens and cats, which alone make it worth it) like new music and movie releases, political views, and funny comics. And I get invited to parties once in a while
Surely people also share a lot of rubbish (mostly pregnancies, babies, and "I'm a Disney princess! Which princess are you?"), but I just read past that and filter out the good stuff
As for privacy, "they" know all about me already. Google does, my government does, the American government probably does as well, some other websites, including CodeProject, does. Facebook might as well do too (if they didn't already).

That's OK; if you weren't blocking it, their like/share button widgets that've been blighting the web since creation already were tracking you. (And so do most of the equivalents for rival platforms.) 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Putting aside the completely made up number, most the jobs have nothing to do with coding and many aren't very good, though could lead to something good.

Misconceptions and 'best practices' may have your team spinning wheels rather than continuously churning out productive code It wouldn't be Friday without a judgemental listicle.

Thank you! Apparently I needed a Project Manager for that.

Quote: To remediate this, remember that the main goal is to deliver working software, not to follow a recipe; there is no recipe that always works for every project and team. Therefore, let each team adopt their own practices and take responsibility for adjusting and improving them.
This is a wonderful idea as long as your teams are totally rigid and personnel never move between or work in multiple teams at once. In that case, everyone doing their completely different thing makes any sort of staffing agility a nightmarish cluster elephant.

Not every one but every project. There's a huge difference. You just need to ensure your developers are flexible and adaptable.
"There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult." - C.A.R. Hoare

Agile practice needs not only organized team members but also the members should know what to do as being a self sufficient. This is very important. Else you will end up with stand up meeting without doing nothing and finally you will deliver your MOM to the client which is a failure.

Tor developers have been working on the next iteration of the Tor network and its underbelly, the Onion routing protocol, in order to create a stronger, harder-to-crack anonymous communications system. "As far as we know, a distributed random generation system like this has never been deployed before on the Internet." - Tor team.

Hmm. Interesting. I wonder if it would be vulnerable to substitution of one or more of the networked RNG servers.
