Getting lazier by the day are we? (yes I read the post in the turtle thread . . . . )
Um .... I wonder .... @udg and I are doing our workout together today . . . .so I already have a date....
Alan Turing programmed in base 32 machine code written from right to left. transistors changed the life of a computer. C and object orientation come from the late 60's. programmers need to get together and create a self-regulating body before governments start to make rules so that "we" don't create situations where cars crash and aircraft fail. apparently there could be 10million lines of code in your car so if anything goes wrong its the programmers' fault.
I forgot the rest.
? anyway it would take an hour-and-a-half to summarise the rest (come to think of it - less time than it would take to watch it ??
Well, standing up and then seating counts for squats..
Let's agree on the masks we will wear, so to identify each other. Today I will be Zorro; what about you?
On the couch: I will move left to right while you will do it in the opposite direction. BTW, for the malicious ones: a very pretty young girl will seat at the middle as an incentive for an exercise getting more strenuous day by day. Luckily there always a couch nearby to somewhat rest
Nope, it took me 4 lines to introduce it to one of my bosses :
1. Initial 45/46 minutes are about computer and programming history (watch it if you don't know it)
2. From minute 46/47 to minute 57 there are a few pearls of wisdom
3. Then it goes to Agile, Scrum and Project Management
4. @ boss: from 1:01 and following 5/6 minutes, you can't miss them
Ok, I admit it; the above summary is tailored on my audience. I know them very well so I drove their attention to what I could anticipate to be key piints for them
BTW, in early 90's I wrote an article about computer history. If I recall it correctly I named ENIAC but missed ACE .. so, my apologies to my readers (but consider that I let the history began well before A. Turing so an omission here and there..you know, space constraints, pressure to finish, date with some nice girl..)
Don Quixote
I've Got it.... You're the Boss and the audience is all those other voices you hear. How do you get them to listen?

Ehehe.. one of those voices keeps telling me "ask John who among the two uf us picked up Don Quixote?"
Unfortunately I'm not. I'm just the poor slave .. who is brilliant enough to do whatever he likes while letting the boss believe he's (she's) in command..
At home we are three: an adolescent guy (the big boss), my wife (the absolute power) and me (the designated victim). But I'm the only one able to manage the router..
it was the one who tilted at the Moulin Rouge accompanied by Rocinante, Dapple, Sancho and one @udg and now probably appears in a Bod Dylan cataloging song most probably . Quixote, here, was at the other Red Windmill reading the catalogue with Bob.
i had a job like that it was really productive for me, and for them incidentally, they got and now have something no one else has out of it, unfortunately i had not discovered B4X back then or i would have done even sneaker stuff.....
