crowds rarely act in the absence of social influences

providing individuals information about what their fellow crowd-members are thinking is enough to wipe out the crowd's wisdom

Agile Manifesto reads, in its entirety, as follows:^[1]

 

 

We are uncovering better ways of developing software by doing it and helping others do it. Through this work we have come to value:

 

 

Individuals and interactions over processes and tools

 

Working software over comprehensive documentation

 

Customer collaboration over contract negotiation

 

Responding to change over following a plan

 

 That is, while there is value in the items on the right, we value the items on the left more.

Google Drops A Nuclear Bomb On Microsoft

«ll vero peccato di Berlusconi» è di essere uno dei peggiori gestori dell’economia italiana: l’Italia è sempre più oberata dal debito pubblico e sarà il solo Paese dell’eurozona con tre anni consecutivi di recessione.

6. Searching without searches. Amit finished off by teasing us with his vision of where information retrieval should be headed. He stressed that this is neither on Google's roadmap nor something that's doable today, while also reiterating that it would be done with user privacy and control as the number one concern. His search-less vision, then, revolves around the amalgamation of all those ancillary services that Google has being developing to deliver timely and relevant information without you having to ask for it.
 
 His example illustrates this well. Imagine that you have to buy a new cricket bat because your old one's broken and you happen to have an hour of free time between meetings one day. Your phone knows about your shopping needs because they're in your to-do list and it knows about your meetings because they're in your schedule. All it needs is your location (which, of course, it has) and some local area information, and it'll ping out a message advising you that you can just pop down the road, buy that wooden stick, and be back in time for your 2PM with Marty from the Synergy Department.
 
 If that sounds like your phone babying you and potentially controlling your life, then you're attuned to the exact same frequency that we are. We get Amit's point, our devices have come nowhere near to maxing out the intelligence or utility that we can extract from them, but this just seems like another step toward over-reliance on technology. Most people nowadays can't remember their friends' phone numbers -- in spite of being in constant contact with them -- and correct spelling is growing largely irrelevant when doing a Google search with all those ultra-smart (okay, sometimes they can be real dumb too) suggestions. So it's a nice dream and all, but we kinda like things on the search front as they are: functional, predictable, and not too flashy.
