#Agile is basically project management esotericism.
The smartest people have managed to build processes on top of it that work, the same way that some churches have worthwhile charities that do good work, but that doesn't mean the core of the methodology isn't mumbo jumbo.
(ah yeah, going for both developers AND the faithful today in one fell swoop, what am I even thinking?)
@kyonshi I know people who are very happy with it, so in the right environment it seems to do the magic. I have tried to get more agile in a traditional company for several years, and that really felt like Don Quixote and windmills.
@W99 my current company is not bad with that, for the first time it feels like stuff actually gets done. But previous encounters with Agile were basically little more than time getting wasted in daily stand up meetings where we never had anything to say and nothing ever was of consequence for us.
And from what I heard from my colleagues they had similar experiences in other companies.
