"We did unconventional things in unconventional ways and still got valuable results. Thus management had to tolerate us and let us alone a lot of the time."[3]https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young_Turks_(Bell_Labs)Richard HammingRichard Wesley Hamming was an American mathematician whose work had many implications for computer engineering and telecommunications.

It was concealed inside a gift given by the Soviet Union to W. Averell Harriman, the United States Ambassador to the Soviet Union, on August 4, 1945. Because it was passive, needing electromagnetic energy from an outside source to become energized and active, it is considered a predecessor of radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Thing_(listening_device)2023 JulyPartnering for a stable web3 Critical Reasons I Stopped Using Story PointsFundamentals of Product Backlog Management in Agile10 Essential Git Command Tricks for Faster DevelopmentEngineering Culture, Trust, and Accountability
