Mods, please add Kent Beck to the title
- e28eta 10y agoIt looks like you've been downvoted, but I think it's notable that Kent Beck, the creator of Extreme Programming, has written something that includes: "what if those waterfall folks aren’t wrong, what if they are solving a different problem than I’m solving?"
- wyldfire 10y agoI thought you were paraphrasing. That's exactly what he wrote! This is an interesting article IMO. I don't think many of the organizations I've worked in are mature enough to shift their process as they cycle through these phases, though.
- dang 10y agoHN tends not to include author names in titles.
- joshwa 10y agoI only suggested it since "facebook.com" as the domain is not really sufficient to indicate the prominence of the author, which what makes the article credible/interesting...
- dang 10y agoI get that, and you're right. But this is one of those obscure tradeoffs. Sometimes the author's name gets a post onto the front page, an active discussion gets going, and we can safely remove the name from the title without damaging it.
