It amazes me that the same people that consider “developers” fungible are upset when the resources consider them equally exchangeable. — Torbjörn Gyllebring (@drunkcod)

What happened to Agile Coaching? I’ve been in Agile for quite some time now What I see today doesn’t look anything like the Agile I got involved with I think it's time we talked about it

Nowhere in the laws of physics is it required that a commit, push, or PR can only be for a fully completed feature. Some people made that up, and it is likely not a good choice for your org. – at Montpellier, France

I find linear progression training fascinating. It begins so simple, so EASY. You just do 3 sets x 5 reps or whatever, and add 2.5 kg or 5 lb to the bar every time you succeed. 📈 At first...

Every so often there will be a burst of Twitter conversations on the “Reverse Conway Manoeuver” and related topics. I find this encouraging, but not for a reason you might suspect. Hear me out; this is important. 1/28

I often wonder why developers tend to underengineer the things that matter and overengineer the things that don’t. Then I remember a pearl of wisdom from @neal4d: “Meta-work is more interesting than real work” It’s also culture/leadership; agile favors simplicity & refactoring.

I do not buy, own NFTs or cryptocurrencies, and discourage my friends to do so. The space is filled with scams, pump and dump schemes and bad actors. NFTs and crypto is unregulated financial engineering that benefits insiders: the early investors & VCs involved. I stay away.

I'm going on record again just so there is no ambiguity. The current incarnation of cryptocurrency and NFTs can only lead to massive scams and fraud. It should not be trusted in any form. And we should be actively preventing our friends and family from getting sucked into it.

Remote work doesn't create issues. It reveals them. It reveals bad culture. It reveals poor strategy. It reveals low performers. It reveals uninspiring work. It reveals useless meetings. It reveals outdated processes. These issues existed IRL. Now, there's just nowhere to hide.

Paradoxically, the same organizations keep adopting cheap, half-assed solutions to the problems they DO have.

1/There are people who are genuinely trying to talk intelligently about cryptocurrencies, but can’t because they don’t have historical background. This thread tries to correct that by suggesting required reading. First, it’s necessary to know what problem it attempts to solve.

Be very wary whenever a technology becomes more of an identity than a solution to solve real problems. This path leads to bad places.
