What is Agile? (2024 Developer Edition) 

AI just takes over everything! See, I watched til the very end. lol Seriously, I think you're spot on with your analysis and love how you explained the history of how we got here. So many folks in Management still seem to have the 'iron triangle' mentality, where time, scope and cost (people) are all fixed. Prioritized backlogs have changed all this, but we can't box the Teams into a date. Self-organization, trust, transparency. Also agree that SAFe is way too complex (they do have a simple version of it now, btw), and most companies have modified it to fit their unique needs. And yes, the certification racquet got out of control over the years; big money grab.

When Agile training became a business it was game over. With scrum there are a lot of processes that may not work for your team - in our case daily standups and even sprints (retrospectives don't seem that useful either). You do need to take the bits that work and throw away the bits that don't to be truly agile.

Great video! Keep up the great work man.

I really enjoy listening to some others perspective on the history, the intent, the malpractice and other follies in this topic. So many companies seem to just 'do the agile' while having lost sight of why that was a thing and how to help teams deliver, vs a management progress tracking solution.

Great videos. Thank you

Awesome video bro!!!

Okay, here you go, "AI just takes over..." Ah, never mind I can't do it.

It's a Great Video.. You touched upon the Good side & Bad side in General Agile practice.. I worked on SAFe was interesting coz I see there was a clarity on every bit of detail that was planned & divided into user stories. I felt the strong point is the architect & Businesses Analyst to pick the user stories to divide further into story points to deliver the peace of software by the end if the scrum both from the dev & testing team. I have seen the worst part in another project with project management switching from agile to waterfall at their convenience which made delays in delivering the peace that is planned. You touched upon dependencies & can you do another video on lean practice also don't know how much you prioritise on doing such video. Hope I can search you on LinkedIn to follow you.

Even some of the project release terminology that we still use today originated in the 80's inspired by NASA-style big-bang systems ("launching") and shrink-wrapped software packages ("shipping")...

Hi, can you suggest pdf to read Agile methodologies.

SAFe. Forced down the throats of hardware engineers that can "ship" 3 times ever. (Proto1, proto2, customer)

Eggheads that think being part of the human centipede is what's vital for career growth are what has led to BS like SAFe being a thing. It doesn't get challenged about how awful it is.
