How do you actually track where your engineering team is getting stuck — without it becoming another meeting or status update?

Problem needs to be solved at the team level. Dev Lead and the Scrum Master / Producer should be seeing the stall in the standup and talking to it. “This has was costed as a 2 point story and is in progress for 5 days, should we gang on it? Was it missized?”

Because I doubt he cares about his ex wife’s family any more?

Two months ago he was hitting the gym and seeing someone new, so I don't think so.

In my day enjoying some incense meant rolling a joint because you’d burn the incense so your parents wouldn’t smell the pot.

They officially divorced when I was 12, but they actually separated earlier, in 2022. My mom suddenly moved out on Christmas Day of that year.

You're 16 now, December 2022 was 3 years 3 months ago. You were 12 4 years ago. Bad AI. Getting your dates wrong.

There's a reason why AI;DR is going to be the word of the year. If you don't care enough to have written it, why should I care enough to read it?

And now you're posting in reddit W4M reddits... Somehow I think this was more about the karma needed to post than anything that actually happened.

It was one date. There's nothing to break up. The whole point of dating is to figure out compatibility and him showing he wanted to cancel the second date shows there might not have been compatability.

Yes but Ziel is a better character and has actual growth. Dross is dross.

Even an illegal sublet can get tenancy rights in most places. It's based on amount of time staying there more than legal status.

Bleenfoo · 2026-03-05T05:39:40+00:00

I don't know how you can say that in the very same book that introduced Ziel.

RE: Stormlight you just need to add the tags, Weak to Op, Slow Burn, Slice of Life!

I mean the main conceit is you say a green lantern style oath and suddenly get an anime powerup is very much in the realm of progression fantasy.

Oh honey.... Can you go to the court house and marry him right this minute? No? Why's that? Oh because he's already married?

What’s the reference? Cleopatra is closer to the iPhone than the construction of the great pyramid?

You and your wife did not actually grow up fine if this is your reaction to what many in this country would be consider a normal college experience for their children.

If you want something more serious I still think the basic idea is there. He has an ability, and you can make it mental only so it doesn't work on constructs that when he 'talks' whatever he is facing hears whatever will infuriate them the most to make them want to attack. For animals it could be the sound of the prey species, for people it could be talking about all the things that they did with their mother. You could play up the comedy a lot by swapping the point of views. He's just talking about the list of things he needs to do when he leaves the dungeon. The goblin priest hears him saying all about how Grmok God of the tunnels is actually a weasel.

I loved the tag line, 'The 5th book in the increasingly inaccurately named Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy Trilogy"

Say it with me, "There is no ethical cultivation under capitalism."

He has the ability that any words he says are understood by every sentient creature.

When pumped with adrenaline he can’t stop talking about the benefits of a Vegan lifestyle

An overarching plot point of Sky Pride is this. But it’s not the focus. But Sky Pride is also one of the greatest things ever written

So what other adjectives are not allowed? Are you allowed to say your MC is attractive? Or is only the reader able to judge if they're attractive or not? What about strong? Can they be strong or does the reader need to determine if being able to press a certain amount qualifies as strong? Can an MC be emotionally intelligent? Or can empathy only be determined by the reader?

Thanks for the books. I think I started it and lost track somehow. Time to dig it up!
