Comment Canceled because... (Score 1) 91

...there were nothing left for me.

So, I seem to have very particular interests and since last month I could not find anything new - so I canceled.

However, next year I will probably check back as there are bound to be something new, or at least new seasons of shows I watched. But in the mean time there is no point paying for something I'm not going to use.

I'm guessing I'll do the same with the other subscriptions - with one exception: Amazon Prime - since that subscription is more than just the streaming content. In fact, I did not get Amazon Prime for the streaming content - it's just a convenient extra from my perspective.

By the way, I recently also read comments in another news subscription (no link now as I could not find it again quickly) about the renewed rise in so called piracy as a result of all these streaming services. It would appear the market wants a unified service with a single subscription or at least a more limited number of options. But I get it - if you are a hard core content consumer, it's going to cost you.

Comment Isn't that part of LEAN? (Score 1) 251

Just worked on a project using LEAN. What we would do is let all developers deliver the same prototype. At the end we evaluate each one, pick the best and move on. In diverse projects, different developers will excel in different areas. This was one way we could quickly see who is strong in which areas making later task assignments easier - especially when you are done with prototyping and now need to add all the other functional requirements. This sounds very similar...
