Fred Brooks was the author of "The Mythical Man Month" a book that was hugely influential on so many of us. Also his paper "No Silver Bullet" would be on most people's shortlist of most influential papers.

I just saw an article referring to story points as a “core scrum concept.”
Do you know that it isn’t?
Neither user stories nor story points are core scrum concepts.
Nothing in the scrum guide requires either, and story points are a largely abandoned XP concept.

The reason for decisions to happen at the team level is agility plain and simple. This applies even to strategic decisions, which are best made collaboratively at the executive-team (they are a team) level with input from the rest of the org. 1/5

Rewarding one person for a team’s effort is a great way to destroy teams. Rewarding one team for an organizational effort is a great way to destroy organizations. Reward systems are fundamentally suspect to me. Doing good work should be a pervasive norm.

Tech debt != bugs. Tech debt is the best job you could do knowing what you knew when you wrote the code. A TODO implies that you knew how to do it better when you write the code. That’s a deliberate bug, not tech debut. holub.com/tech
