What's Bugging You?

What's bugging me? I'll tell you what's bugging me. It's when my dashboard dials stop working right.

My first car was a 1978 Datsun B210 sedan that I bought when I was in graduate school. It was a very simple vehicle with nothing fancy on it. But it did have a few, um, quirks. I bought it in the bitterly cold winter of 1983 and promptly spun it in a 360 degree circle in an intersection in Loveland, Colorado late at night after visiting with my then-fiance (and now wife) Deb. Almost all of my interesting car stories come from that car, whom we had dubbed "Elliot."

Agile Software Development Practices

Agile practices have become quite popular amongst software development teams world-wide. Even within Intel, there are many teams starting to adopt and practice Agile in a big way. I am part of one such team and we've been practicing Agile for the last 2 years now and have realized amazingly positive benefits like improved team morale, zero attrition, better customer satisfaction, and much improved quality levels. We've learnt lots of good lessons along the way and have significantly improved our practices maturity.
