  > Putting aside that most teams in the world aren't remote, do you seriously need to do that daily? Have you worked both remote and in person? In person you generally see people every day. Remote you do mot. > Something more fundamentally wrong is going on if people can't assign work more than a day in advance without stepping on each other's toes. Not always about assigning work. What if you are working on some task, and to fix a bug you need to refactor something. How do you spread that knowledge? Code review by entire team? Slack blast? Stand-up announcement? Somehow you should want to manage that.. > Daily standups are simply a form of micro-managing, the scrum guys have done a colossal amount of harm to our industry. Scrum is a tool. It can be used well, and it can be used poorly. There are times when over-communication (what scrum tends towards) is very good. There are times when it is bad. I think remote it can be better to slightly over vs slightly under-communicate.
