Til both that he's trash and that Uncle Bob is trash. It makes sense honestly, Uncle Bob was always hyped to no end with his mediocre contributions to software. Also the agile manifesto sucks ass.

I have no idea who that guy is and I dont feel like I'm missing out

He wrote some hyped up programming books and he was involved in the creation of extreme programming (a bust), cucumber (an almost completely useless waste of time), and agile (an ok idea but in reality it's a huge bust, it's biggest effect is that management tells everyone "we need to be agile" all the time).

Tldr: you're not missing out

Oh he invented agile did he. I already hate him.

Agile just means that you don't have a project plan, but you see that's okay because you planned not to have a project plan, and therefore it's totally fine.

I'm happy to say I've never heard of the others.

Extreme programming is basically pair programming. It sucks and doesn't work. Cucumber is also known as "behavioral driven (design/development)" or BDD. It manifests as test documents written in "plain English" that are executed via code. It inevitably becomes unit tests but worse because it's based mainly around regex matches to bits of text within the steps.

Link for context…he didn’t know statutory rape stood for sex with children as he is not a native speaker. This does not excuse other things he has said that may be terrible, but cancel culture is a cancer.

While I sympathize with not knowing every random english word, the one next to it being 'rape' should've been enough clue
