Which part is bullshit? Prototyping? Shipping fast? CD? MVPs? If you are working at a company in 2015 and you are not working on an OS, and you are not doing these things, you are a dinosaur.

Yes, you disturb someone. You let them consider whether they want to pause what they are doing and join your conversation, and make it more productive, or put their headphones on and tune you out. The choice exists.

Too late. Train of thought already lost. Learn to do your own work instead of harassing those around you to help.

Looks like I inadvertently trolled a troll :)

No, none of those are bullshit. The idea that they are new is complete bullshit, and the idea that throwing those terms around justifies something is also so.
