Atlas of Human Migration
Russell King
Firefly Books, 2007 - Social Science - 192 pages
How the migration of people through the ages has shaped the course of history.
The Atlas of Human Migration explains how humans have constantly overcome environmental and physical barriers and adapted to new social, political and environmental realities. From an estimated original 10,000 to 20,000 individuals, the world population has expanded to more than six billion. This book describes how it has spread over the world.
The compelling stories of the world's peoples and their migrations through time are enhanced by informative annotated maps and informative timelines. Photographs, paintings and artifacts bring to life the history of human migration. In easy-to-understand language, a team of academic experts examines mass migrations -the motivations behind them, and their impact on the world.
The book includes:
An introduction to the main causes of human migrations
The economic and social effects of migrations, traditional routes, and expected future migrations
The prehistoric migrations of early humans
Indo-European expansion, the Exodus, Polynesian and Greek colonization, and the Romans
Medieval civilizations on the move -- Barbarians, Vikings, Mongols, Arabs and the Bantu
Expansion through colonization, and the impact of convict ships and the slave trade
Industrialization and the emergence of modern empires
Famine, war, persecution and economic collapse in the turbulent 1800s
The emergence of the state of Israel, the Eastern Bloc collapse, the India and Pakistan partition, the decolonization of Vietnam and Algeria, and Africa's civil wars.
The Atlas of Human Migration is the definitive record of our planet's people and a volume that will be recognized immediately as an essential popular reference.
Russell King is head of the Geography Department at Sussex University in England. He has edited and contributed to numerous works, including Mass Migration in Europe, Writing Across Worlds: Literature and Migration and Exploding the Migration Myths.

LONDON: As Internet-connected and, eventually, driverless vehicles roll off production lines, traditional motor insurers need to adapt to ward off competition from car manufacturers.
Insurers have struggled for years to make a profit from motor insurance due to intense competition and a rising tide of fraudulent claims. Now they face a much bigger threat as new technology sends key information about drivers' behaviour, including their speed when an accident occurred, directly to car makers.
Kenny Leitch, telematics director at British insurer RSA , said car manufacturers will want to offer insurance directly to car owners to remove the risk of a Jaguar, for example, being sent for repair and the insurer replacing it with a courtesy BMW - which the driver ultimately prefers.
RSA is in discussions with car manufacturers on ways they can work together and "we will keep talking to them", Leitch said. One way forward for insurers is joint partnerships.
Japan's Toyota Motor and Aioi Nissay Dowa Insurance, for example, are planning to jointly develop car insurance based on a driver's habits.
Car manufacturers, including Jaguar Land Rover, BMW, Ford and General Motors, are already making cars that are hooked up to smartphones, letting drivers do everything from honking the horn remotely to recording the force with which they brake and accelerate.
The data from these connections could then be used to price insurance policies. Insurers, traditionally slow to embrace technology, need to catch up.
"We need to build our own spaceship," said Wilson. Insurers are also using telematics - black boxes installed in cars - to monitor behaviour on the road and lure safer drivers with lower premiums.
The advent of driverless cars, however, could tilt the balance further in the direction of manufacturers. At $500 billion plus, the global motor insurance market is large but Graham Jackson, a partner at consultancy PwC, warns of the threat of an "existential crisis" for insurers.
"As the car becomes more autonomous ... we believe more of the liability will be absorbed by the manufacturer or the entity that has made the algorithms behind the brain of the car," said Jerry Albright, principal in KPMG's actuarial and insurance risk practice.
"At one point, does that become such a large portion that carmakers say,'we will insure all these cars'?"
Insurers see their biggest threat as Alphabet's Google because of its strong brand and ability to use customer data, according to consultancy Capgemini.

About RZ Resources
Our ESG Commitment
Copi project
Mineral Separation Plant
What are Critical Minerals
RZ Resources is an emerging Australian critical minerals producer.
RZ Resources is an Australian-owned mining company focused on mineral sand resources – including critical minerals and rare earths – in the Murray Basin in New South Wales.
RZ Resources has a portfolio of 10 tenements, including the flagship Copi Project, with a further four tenements under application, for an exploration area totalling 3,362 km2. As demand for high quality mineral sands — specifically rutile, zircon and titanium, and rare earth elements — continues to increase, RZ Resources is well positioned to deliver the Copi Project and generate jobs for the local communities of far south-western NSW.
RZ Resources was incorporated in 2012 to identify high value mineral sands projects in tier one locations that support proven operations and existing infrastructure. In 2015, RZ Resources entered into a joint venture which controlled three tenements in the Murray Basin. In 2017, RZ Resources acquired 100% ownership of the joint venture tenements and a further five tenements in the area.
Critical minerals are metals and non-metals that are considered vital for the economic well-being of the world's major and emerging economies. Both the US and Australia have identified 25 minerals that are critical for development and among these important minerals are metals and semi-metals used in the manufacture of mobile phones, flat screen monitors, wind turbines, electric cars, solar panels, and many other high-tech applications.
Mineral sands typically comprise zircon, rutile, leucoxene, ilmenite, monazite and xenotime, which are the feedstocks in the production of Zirconium and Hafnium metal, Titanium metal and the Rare Earth elements vital in a low-carbon world.
This global demand for critical minerals is instrumental for the development and expansion of clean technology applications, like high-powered magnets and batteries, is growing exponentially. Australia is already among the world's top suppliers of some of the world's most sought-after critical minerals.
Titanium feedstocks are defined by their titanium dioxide (TiO2) content, with the higher the content, the more valuable the product.
The worldwide demand for Zircon is being driven by urbanisation of developing economies, world economic growth and the increasing end applications of zircon. However, the global supply of Zircon is declining due to current mines coming to their end of life and associated declining grades.
Rare Earth Elements (REE) are a group of 17 metals made up of 15 lanthanides, plus scandium and yttrium. At the Copi Project the rare earths bearing minerals are found in the form of monazite and xenotime grains.
At RZ Resources, we are committed to operating sustainably.

New, Emerging Tech Businesses Get Tax Break From City
For budding entrepreneurs who have ideas for technology-based businesses, establishing their business in Peachtree Corners may be one of their first best decisions in launching their new venture.
-----393----
-----1823----
Last summer the city council passed an ordinance waiving the occupational tax fees (business licenses as they are better known), for new and emerging technology businesses. The new law provides a three-year waiver of all occupational tax fees for those who are enrolled in an incubator program in the city. The waiver does not apply if a business generates $1 million in revenue within its first three years in operation.
"We thought this would be one way that the city could show its support for these ambitious men and women who are willing to take on the challenge of pursuing their dreams," said Mayor Mike Mason.

Who is the new European refugee?
El-Enany, Nadine (2007) Who is the new European refugee? LSE law, society and economy working papers (19-2007). Department of Law, London School of Economics and Political Science, London, UK.
This paper highlights the unforeseen or unintended effects of the European Union's refugee law on the world's most vulnerable refugees, those forgotten by the law. The paper focuses on those refugees automatically denied protection in Europe by being impliedly defined out of the EU's refugee definition. Not only must refugees seeking protection in Europe meet the legal definition, but they are also assumed to have the means to reach Europe. Due to the limitations on legal access routes, often only those who can afford to pay a smuggler have the chance to reach Europe. The great majority of the world's refugees remain outside Europe. Therefore, an exploration of the external policies of the EU institutions which are designed to counter the limiting affects of its restrictive migration policy is required. The paper examines the move towards the establishment of Regional Protection Programmes, Protected Entry Procedures and Resettlement Schemes as providing possible hope for enduring protection for those refugees trapped outside Europe.

The Chinese government's move Wednesday to further roll back strict Covid-19 measures should boost the prospects for a host of Club holdings with substantial operations in China, including Estee Lauder (EL), Wynn Resorts (WYNN) and Starbucks ( SBUX), all of which have been weighed down by nearly three years of lockdowns. The news China's National Health Commission on Wednesday said people will now be able to travel throughout the country without showing a negative Covid test or health code. The new rules also allow those with mild or asymptomatic Covid cases to quarantine at home, rather than at designated facilities. Additionally, local authorities will no longer be able halt work or production unless an area is designated as high-risk. Beijing's decision to further ease public-health policies comes a little more than a week after protests erupted in China over the government's draconian zero-Covid policy, an approach that has severely restricted citizens and pressured the world's second-largest economy. China has taken minor steps in recent months to ease its Covid restrictions, but Wednesday's announcement amounts to the most significant policy shift to date. Impact on Club stocks Club stocks with China exposure largely followed the broader market lower Wednesday amid a day of choppy trading in equity and energy markets, fueled by growing fears of a recession. But, ultimately, the holdings which rely on China for a substantial portion of revenue — Estee Lauder, Wynn and Starbucks — should see their stock prices ultimately move higher, as China's economy reopens. For months, we have argued that China's strict Covid stance was untenable over the long term and eventually a serious pivot toward reopening would materialize, providing much-needed clarity to businesses and helping spur economic activity. As a result, we've exercised patience and held onto stocks like Wynn Resorts, which depends heavily on its casinos in the Chinese special administrative region of Macao. At the same time, we also know stocks are forward-looking assets, and decided not to wait for Beijing to to fully roll back restrictions before investing in Estee Lauder, which relies on China for more than a third of total sales. In late September we bought back into the cosmetics giant, and still believe it's worth buying here. Similar thinking informed our decision to initiate a position in Starbucks in late August . As Wednesday's announcement likely helps China's economy to recover, a number of other Club holdings should also see tailwinds. At a high level, our energy stocks — Pioneer Natural Resources (PXD), Coterra Energy (CTRA), Devon Energy (DVN) and Halliburton (HAL) — benefit from elevated crude oil prices. And increased oil demand from the world's No. 2 economy should ultimately lend support to crude, with knock-on effects for our oil stocks. Apple (APPL) is another potential beneficiary of China's policy shift. The iPhone maker has faced Covid-related production hold-ups at facilities in China , warning as recently as November about a potential hit to sales. On Wednesday, Morgan Stanley lowered iPhone shipment expectations for the December quarter by 3 million units, after having trimmed forecasts by 6 million units last month, on the back of manufacturing disruptions in China. Chip designer Qualcomm (QCOM) also has warned about the impact of China's Covid policy, saying that overall macroeconomic weakness in the country has weighed on smartphone demand. Increased economic activity in China could benefit Qualcomm down the road. An uptick in air travel in China could be good news for Club holding Honeywell International (HON) and its already strong aerospace business . The industrial firm makes parts for Boeing (BA) and European rival Airbus, both of which operate in the Chinese market. Honeywell also has a large commercial aerospace aftermarket business that has benefited from a recovery in international air traffic. China is Procter & Gamble 's (PG) second-largest market outside the U.S. and its been weighed down by Covid lockdowns. The maker of Olay skin care products and Gillette razors continues to bet on China, but management has said it needs consumer mobility to recover so long-term growth trends can resume. Bottom line China's decision to further ease Covid protocols is positive and we expect further reopening measures to be enacted down the line. Of course, Beijing has not officially dropped its so-called zero-Covid stance, and it's possible there could be temporary setbacks in response to a surge in cases. But Wednesday's announcement, nonetheless, signals an important development for Club stocks with China exposure. (See here for a full list of the stocks in Jim Cramer's Charitable Trust.)

South Africa Trip 10 - 20th February 2012
Dan Pratt used to be our BMS Link missionary in South Africa, where he taught at the Baptist Convention of South Africa training College in Soweto, Johannesburg. Dan was instrumental in linking up a team of 9 people from ABC with the Baptist Church in Tembisa, a large township, in February this year in order that we might learn more about life in the townships today, and to communicate something of God's love to them from across the world. We shared in the life of the church, and worked with the Community Project based on the church site - doing 'make-overs' of the homes of two needy families, visiting the sick and elderly with the 'home care-givers', helping with the meals for the 'orphans' in the nursery and older children after school, running a kids' club for those of school age. It was a very special time, and we gained far more than we gave, as you will see from the reflections of the team members which follow. Click on the link below to download the report.

NASA Innovative Advanced Concepts
Flight Demonstration of Novel Atmospheric Satellite Concept
Completed Technology Project
The Dual-Aircraft Platform (DAP) is a novel concept for achieving a low-cost atmospheric satellite in the lower stratosphere which utilizes a combination of wind and solar energy capture. DAP consists of two glider-like unmanned aircraft connected via a thin, ultra-strong cable. Long duration flight simulations have shown the platform could literally sail without propulsion, using levels of wind shear persistently found near 60,000-ft, and substantially increase the energy available for useful payload operations. The central objective of the proposed Phase II effort is to perform autonomous proof-of-concept flight demonstrations of the DAP concept using a small-scale prototype at low altitude. Related objectives are develop specific flight maneuvers and mechanisms required for station keeping, and validate the autonomous guidance and control software. Flight demonstrations of the sailing mode of operation, as well as all other required maneuvers for stratospheric station keeping, will be conducted using the atmospheric onshore wind shear produced at low altitudes (< 500 feet) at Kennedy Space Center's (KSC) Shuttle Landing Facility. Optimal dates/times for flight testing will be selected based on an historical weather assessment. Off-the shelf aircraft will be modified for DAP operation. The aircraft will be remotely controlled by KSC pilots during the first year, and will gradually shift towards complete autonomous flight control in the second year. Flight software will be developed and validated within the hardware-in-the-loop DAP flight simulator at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. Atmospheric satellites represent a long-standing, grand challenge to the aeronautics community, and have enormous potential societal and economic impact. Such airborne platforms are expected to diversify and expand surveillance capabilities (e.g., NASA's earth science missions) and communications bandwidth and availability (e.g., for underserved remote areas of the US, emergency communications), at a fraction of the cost of orbital satellite networks. Successful proof-of-concept DAP flight demonstrations are expected to lead to commercial investment to build a large scale prototype. More »

Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Lead Organization Academic Daytona Beach, FL
The major focus of the Phase II effort described herein is to develop and demonstrate an aircraft capable of autonomously sailing (i.e., to cruise without propulsion or external assistance), and thereby prove that the dual-aircraft platform (DAP) atmospheric satellite concept is potentially viable. This sailing mode of flight was identified as the #1 enabling technology required for the stratospheric DAP concept (also known as Stratosat) in the NIAC Phase I effort. No scientific demonstration of this technology has ever been done or documented to our knowledge. This report describes efforts to take a major step towards the sailing mode of flight capability using a single aircraft connected by cable to a moving ground vehicle which uses sufficient crosswind to cruise without propulsion while "pulling" the ground vehicle forward (i.e., without external assistance).The development of a prototype aircraft is described in terms of novel and key hardware and software elements. A specialized prototype aircraft is described, including a novel cable release mechanism, novel "lateron" control surfaces, and a highly-accurate onboard wind measurement system. Additionally, a novel means to safely connect the aircraft to the moving ground vehicle is described involving a fishing rod/reel and integrated load cell. All of these devices were designed and developed in house and validated in flight testing. Software is developed to provide look-up tables that give the flight condition targets (i.e., 3-D position relative to ground vehicle, forward speed, aircraft orientation, etc.), based on current wind speed and direction. These tables are successfully validated in flight simulation and used onboard the aircraft. High fidelity analysis of the aircraft aerodynamics are described – required to produce accurate target sailing flight conditions. A novel wind tunnel measurement technique is developed to accurately assess the aerodynamics of the ultra-thin cable.A new specialized flight simulator is described which is utilized to develop and verify the flight software required onboard the aircraft, and to support training of pilots for flying the aircraft while tethered to a ground vehicle. The DAP flight simulator was developed within the Matlab-Simulink framework and included detailed treatment of aircraft/cable aerodynamics, cable dynamics, experimentally-derived propeller-motor thrust curves, actuator responsiveness, and realistic air turbulence. The specialized formation flight controller algorithm, developed using this flight simulator, and onboard the aircraft is described. Finally, a novel auto-tuning software is described and verified within the flight simulator that is shown to refine the sailing flight condition targets during flight using an optimization technique involving doublet maneuvers. Virtual flights using the auto-tuning software indicate that the prototype aircraft should be able to reach and hold sailing conditions despite moderate levels of turbulence provided there is sufficient mean wind available. An overview of the flight testing program is provided. Hundreds of short flights were conducted, primarily using a "dead" short runway at Deland Municipal Airport which permitted use of a moving ground vehicle. Additional flight tests at Space Florida's Shuttle Landing Facility are also described. First year results from these tests in which the aircraft is controlled manually, demonstrated that excessive flight testing would be required for a pilot to learn to sail with visual cues. However, second year results from autonomous flight these tests included successful demonstration of the closed-loop autonomous formation flight capability (i.e., autonomously determine, reach, and hold the required 3-D location relative to the ground vehicle required for sailing). The next step of using the auto-tune software to autonomously refine the aircraft orientation targets to finally achieve sailing remains the primary goal of future work. More »

Free golf solitaire game online - play Fairway Solitaire card game with no download: Solitaire games for PC, Mac, fun card games for young children (boys & girls), teens, adults & seniors to play online. Easy card games, simple strategy board games for middle, high school age kids, family at home.
How to Play: In each 'Course', there are 3 solitaire-style levels (Holes) to complete. At the end of the 3 Holes, if your score is Even Par or better (under par), you progress to the next Course. On each hole, you start off a long way 'Over Par', and have to improve your score by eliminating cards from the grid. Your 'Hole Card' is located beside the deck at the bottom of the game screen. This Hole Card dictates which cards can be removed from the grid at any one time. To eliminate a card from the main grid, Left Click on a card either 1 higher, or 1 lower than your Hole Card. For example; if your Hole Card is a Jack, you can eliminate any 10's or Queens that are available on the main grid.
Each time you eliminate a card, your score in the top left corner of the game screen reduces by one stroke (it reduces by more if you go on a run of eliminating cards consecutively.) If you are stuck, and can find no card within 1 of your Hole Card, click on the deck of cards at the bottom of the game screen to get a fresh Hole Card. The level is complete when you run out of Hole Cards, or when you eliminate all of the cards from the main grid. At the end of the 3 levels, your score is added together. If this comes to Even Par or better, you progress to the next course.
In later levels, there are special Bonus cards that can be used. Clicking on an 'Iron Card' places a random club in your bag in the bottom right corner. The number on this Iron can be used as a Hole Card whenever you like. If you click on a 'Chance Card', you can choose to 'Play' or 'Drop' it. If you Play, it could turn out be a good or bad result. If you 'Drop' it, one normal card is eliminated from the Deck. If you want to undo your last action, click on the 'Mulligan' button. This can only be called upon once, so use it wisely.

Myth 8: Organized labour is regressive
Labour union members have always been subjected to more or less constant assault from the wealthy on the grounds that they interfere with free markets and therefore with the creation of wealth. In Britain, the Daily Mail hails a renewed round of legal restrictions on union 'militants' as 'war on the trade unions'.1 In the US, the National Right to Work Foundation suggests that labour unions indulge in 'unreported campaign operations to elect and control congressional majorities dedicated to higher taxes and increased government spending'.2
But the idea that labour unions prevent the creation of wealth is simply wrong. If anything, the evidence from the rich Minority World shows the opposite to be true.
There are two related features of this evidence. First, at the heart of the Great Recession is what's known as a 'liquidity trap' – crudely speaking, the stagnation of real wages since the 1980s.
Unions have played a vital part in democracy, in the struggle against unemployment and injustice, and in international solidarity
The result has been a lack of 'effective demand' – the inability of most people to buy enough of the things that are being produced. That, in turn, has led to a reluctance to invest in producing any more things, and a glut of savings.
Second, inequality has spiralled, with astonishing accumulations of private wealth among a tiny band of individuals. This is bad for an economy as a whole, because the more wealth you have the less of it you need to spend, rather than accumulate, and the less there is for everyone else to spend. The 'liquidity trap' is opened wider. You create a society where the rich struggle to make productive – as opposed to profitable – use of their wealth, while the rest struggle just to get by from one day to the next.
These two features have been accompanied by three related trends. The first is a sharp decline in the density of labour unions – the proportion of all employees who are members. In 'advanced economies', this fell from over 45 per cent in 1980 to not much more than 30 per cent by 2010 (see graph above). Since the main task of labour unions is to improve wages and conditions, it is reasonable to associate this decline with the stagnation of real wages.
But, second, there's more than just a reasonable association. Recent research by the International Monetary Fund has found that 'the decline in unionization is related to the rise of top income shares and less redistribution, while the erosion of minimum wages is correlated with considerable increases in overall inequality.'3 So the 'liquidity trap' is set, in large part, by the rise in inequality, the stagnation of real wages and the decline in organized labour that contribute to it.
Finally, the economic performance of 'advanced economies' – at least in the conventional terms of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per head of the population – has fallen in parallel with union membership. In the 1960s GDP grew much faster than in subsequent decades, when its decline has continued along a steady downward trend (see table). The idea that by removing the regressive effect of labour unions you create more economic prosperity is patently false.
So, say what you like about labour unions, they don't prevent the creation of wealth. With a lot more reason, you might say that they actually promote economic growth, if that's what you're after. But that's not all that labour unions have ever been after. They have, historically, played a vital part in democracy, in the struggle against unemployment and injustice, and in international solidarity. Dispense with organized labour and you dispense with much of that as well.
It may be that the decline of large factories, the rise of corporate globalization, the erosion of union rights and the relentless push for 'flexible labour markets' – as well, to be sure, as unions' own shortcomings – have made it harder for them to organize effectively in wealthy countries. But none of that gives any more substance to the economic myth.

Q: Javascript formdata is empty when trying to append values in it following is my code when i do console.log(formData);  its empty. Cannot see a reason for it to fail down.
$("#add_meal_item").on('click', '#save_meal_item', function () {
                var meal_name = $("#add_meal_item_form").find('#meal_name').val();
                var meal_type = $("#add_meal_item_form").find('#meal_type').val();
                var logoImg = $("#add_meal_item_form").find('#meal_image').get(0).files[0];
                var formData = new FormData();
                formData.append('logo', logoImg);
                formData.append('meal_type', meal_type);
                formData.append('meal_name', meal_name);
                console.log(formData);
                var ajax_url = baseurl + '/save_meal_item';
                $.ajax({
                    url: ajax_url,
                    type: 'POST',
                    data: formData,
                    success: function (response) {

                    }
                });

            });

A: You need to get elements values first and then append them to formData, Like this:
var meal_name = $("#add_meal_item_form").find('#meal_name').val();
formData.append('meal_name ', meal_name );

And to show all formData keys and values you have to use FormData.entries method :
for(var pair of formData.entries()) {
     console.log(pair[0]+ ', '+ pair[1]);
}

A: FormData.append() doesn't create enumerable properties for formData, you need to use the iterator from FormData.entries to iterate the values.
Demo

var formData = new FormData();
formData.append('logo', "11");
formData.append('meal_type', "22");
formData.append('meal_name', "33");

console.log(Object.keys(formData)); //[]
console.log(JSON.stringify(formData)); //{}

//use iterator
var formEntries = formData.entries();
//console.log(formEntries.next().value);
//console.log(formEntries.next().value);
//console.log(formEntries.next().value);

//or simply use Array.from
var formEntries = Array.from(formData.entries());
console.log("formEntries " , formEntries);

Concrete appears to be a material that is virtually indestructible. It is heavy, strong and usually lasts for decades. However, there are some features of concrete that make it especially vulnerable to damage when used as flooring material. In most cases, the use of concrete floors in the home is limited to the garage and basement. Thanks to modern technology and the availability of quality concrete coatings, protecting your concrete floors is easier today than it has been in the past.
The primary reason that concrete has the potential to become damaged with chips, cracks and breaks is that it is porous. It has a system of little channels running through it that allows water to be pulled up from the ground below it or from spills and other contaminants from surface. Applying concrete coatings to the concrete surface will create a barrier against water and other spills. In the garage, this is especially important because of the potential exposure to gasoline, oil and grease.
Depending on the climate in the area where you live, weather can also wreak havoc on concrete. When it becomes wet, freezes and thaws, the life of the concrete floor can be greatly shortened. Preventing the water from permeating the surface of the concrete can greatly extend the life of the concrete.
There are many choices available in the coatings made to coat concrete surfaces today. While they protect the material against normal wear and tear, they can also help you create a more attractive surface. You can choose from a variety of colors, and decorative materials to create designs that are aesthetically pleasing.
Some concrete coatings are made to be absorbed into the surface of the concrete, making it stronger and more resilient against some types of stains. Once applied, the floor will require only regular cleaning to keep it looking great for decades.
When coatings are applied to concrete floors that already have damage, it will be necessary to repair any missing concrete or fill cracks before the coating is applied. This can be accomplished as a do-it-yourself project from repairing the damage to applying the final layer of coating. Making the right choice in products is the key to getting professional quality results that will be attractive and durable. There are many different products available that are designed for specific uses. Insure you get the coating that will provide the most durable finish for your concrete floor.

InfoQ Homepage Articles Silos, Politics and Delivering Software Products
Silos, Politics and Delivering Software Products
Laura Edwards
Silos and politics emerge when the path of action is unclear.
Lack of clarity leads to factions fighting over direction.
Software projects are complex and hard to structure.
Frameworks alone can't resolve politics as the optimal strategy and structure is problem-specific.
Teams can navigate politics by identifying impediments and routes of escalation early, building relationships in advance and working within limitations.
Technical teams tend to be unprepared for politics. This leads to political problems being either accepted as tragically inevitable or written off as due to the incompetence of others. But politics is not inevitable and is not caused by incompetence.
Politics in business emerges when direction is not set with sufficient clarity. This can be best understood through the work of Patrick Lencioni, which will be explored in the next section. When armed with this understanding we'll then move on to politics in the world of software development. Making software is a complex undertaking that poses special challenges. Nonetheless, the basic principle of setting direction with clarity is applicable. Better understanding the causes of politics will help us understand how best to either resolve or at least navigate politics in software projects.
Politics in the Business World
Some companies have a clear focus, well-defined objectives and a strategy for achieving them. Others have come to be what they are through historic acquisitions and growth, resulting in a confusing structure and unclear direction. Focused companies experience much less internal division and politics than sprawling, confusing companies.
Focused companies are less political because they are focused. If the course of action is set clearly and leadership make it clear that they are behind it, then departments will work towards it. Politics happens when there is ambiguity about direction. That leaves room for factions to push their own interpretation or fight for their particular turf.
Some companies, especially large companies, have organisational structures that breed politics. This can even happen as a side-effect of success. A company starts out as a small challenger with a specific strategy for taking market share from the big incumbent. As it gets more successful it grows and expands its business model to sell more related products and services. Perhaps it also acquires other companies, some of which might only partially fit into the original business model. Eventually the focus of the company becomes obscured and departments find themselves battling for status and budget, each making the case that what they do is core to the business.
Lencioni suggests to reduce politics by setting a thematic goal for the organisation and sub-goals beneath that. A similar approach is taken by the Objectives and Key Results framework, where top-level goals are linked with lower-level objectives throughout the organisation. Lencioni cautions that simply producing goals and objectives will not resolve politics unless the direction set is very specific and actionable and has a unifying rationale behind it. Teams need to understand the direction being set by their leadership and what part they can best play within that. Otherwise there will be misalignments that will develop into conflicts.
Politics in the Software World
Misalignments can very easily emerge within software projects. Software is complex and the process of building it is complex. A project might have a clear guiding objective at a high level but could still become political as individual sub-teams might have misaligned interests or interpretations of their part in reaching the objectives.
Misalignments between teams can focus on priorities, scope or direction. Imagine that a team finds itself blocked as it is unable to finish a piece of work until work is completed by another team. The other team might not consider this a high priority item for them, in which case there is a misalignment of priorities. Or the other team might consider the work outside of their scope, in which case it needs to be resolved who should deliver the work. Or more seriously it could be a disagreement about direction - the other team might understand the request but consider it a bad request that they do not want to see fulfilled (e.g. the proposed change would undermine the design).
The complexity and specialisation required to tackle large projects can give rise to various kinds of silos. One might find misaligned interests between any of:
Scrum teams within a large Scrum project.
Particular roles such as DevOps, Quality Assurance or Product.
Different stakeholder/user groups within the business.
Hierarchical arrangements such as different levels of management.
Ultimately disagreements must be played out and resolved in order to deliver the project. A key challenge for project leaders is how best to organise projects to minimise the effort lost on political battles.
Organising to Combat Politics
Larger projects can benefit from putting in place a framework so that working practices can be shared across the project. For projects involving multiple development teams, popular frameworks are LeSS (Large Scale Scrum) and SAFe (Scaled Agile Framework), as well as DAD (Disciplined Agile Delivery). There is a temptation throughout the software industry to look for stock answers to specific problems. Using solutions that others have arrived at has much to recommend it and often saves programming effort. But the devil is in the details. When it comes to arriving at an optimal way of organising for a project, there needs to be sensitivity to the specifics of the project.
A common practice is to dedicate teams to particular features with an intended system. Each team has members with different specialisations and is intended to be able to build a 'vertical slice' of functionality that could be delivered to users. For example, the team wouldn't contain only frontend developers so that they would have to wait for backend developers from another team in order to progress. Teams that provide outputs for other software teams rather than for users are called component teams rather than feature teams.
Frameworks can help by providing guidance on structuring teams. LeSS recommends preferring feature teams, so as to reduce inter-team dependency. But how you break down which features are managed by which teams is up to you. It's also very likely that you will have inter-team dependencies no matter how you organise as complex systems have interwoven features. Moreover, there will be cross-cutting concerns such as design principles that will need to be aligned across teams.
On larger projects not everyone can realistically be part of the core high-level vision setting. Instead, that vision needs to be communicated effectively. Visions evolve over time and projects need to regularly set specific goals for particular phases. Keeping teams in alignment tends to require time from team members. Time spent on this can be reduced by using representatives but using intermediaries can lead to misunderstandings.
The fact that there are competing frameworks is further indication that there's no single right answer when it comes to project organisation or practices. Much as OKRs alone do not produce company alignment, project frameworks alone will not produce alignment in software projects. At best they provide tools for getting to alignment. It is up to the projects to apply those tools in a way that makes sense for them. Regular messaging about priorities and direction can be key to alignment. The more specific and focused, the better.
Navigating Politics as a Team
What if one finds oneself in a delivery team within a larger and politicised programme? Navigating inter-team politics can be a key challenge for a software team. Even for teams that are not part of larger programmes, there can still be big challenges in dealing with external teams (e.g. infrastructure teams) or stakeholders.
Politics can be a lot easier to navigate if one anticipates it. Teams can be much better prepared for political challenges if they anticipate potential issues early in the project. A useful technique is to map out what could potentially be an issue, how big the impact of it would be and who would be able to help with it. This is called an Impediment Impact Diagram:
Image source: Impediment Busting: Designing an Impediment Removal Process for Your Organization
These diagrams and more are discussed in Ken Power's article Impediment Busting. If used early on, as a kind of pre-mortem, it can be used to cultivate relationships with key stakeholders. It can be especially helpful to establish early with senior stakeholders that they will act as a route of escalation. This way if their help is needed then it won't come as a surprise to them. It might also be possible to call on these senior figures to deliver key messages to help align teams and ward off conflict before it happens.
Stakeholders and other teams naturally have their own priorities and need to be approached sensitively. Appreciating the priorities of others helps to phrase your approaches in a way that is more palatable to them. It can also make more apparent possibilities for negotiation. For example, perhaps you need another team to make a service available for your project but they're currently swamped with other work. If you're able to negotiate on timing of delivery then this can show understanding and help to build empathy.
Sometimes negotiation fails or isn't possible without more senior representation. In some environments bringing in more senior managers can be a smooth step towards aligning priorities. In adversarial environments any escalation can be a delicate matter. Escalation can be seen as highlighting that expectations are not being met and might involve singling out a certain team's course of action as presenting an obstacle for another team. Naturally this makes things delicate as people tend to be sensitive about how their managers see them and managers can become defensive when their team's actions are challenged. One has to be sensitive to how the escalation is likely to play out if and if it will be further escalated up the chain. It can be valuable at any points of escalation to emphasise the bigger picture for the organisation and to find common ground or pointers toward resolution. This can help move the focus on to paths of action and the wider business impacts.
Resolving differences takes time and energy and not all battles are winnable. Building relationships can greatly increase influence but only within limitations and can be especially challenging in an environment which is already politicised. Sometimes compromises and workarounds are the best realistic options. It is important not to overestimate one's range of influence. In politicised environments a key to success can be picking one's battles carefully.

Q: Is there a way to change the python max path length setting after installing in Windows 10? I'm having an anaconda installing issues with being unable to find directories, and it seems it stems from Python for Windows having a max path length setting enabled on install. Is there a way for me to disable this setting after the fact?
Thanks!

A: Try running this as an administrator.
reg add HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem /v LongPathsEnabled /t REG_DWORD /d 1

Are you aware of the incompatibility this setting may cause with older systems? I'm completely all for enabling long paths, just wanted to make sure you're aware of the side effects.
