HN title is clickbait. Article title is much better.
The article makes a very reasonable argument, however I wish he wouldn't try to introduce some new term, Agile "governance". He's just describing what we already know -- that Agile isn't Agile and care must be taken to institute it correctly. via "governance" as he calls it but this isn't a new revelation.
- bb88 8y agoMods, please fix the title.
- greglindahl 8y agoThe entire thing is a thought experiment; of course it's easy to think up nightmare scenarios for Agile development. It would be much more interesting to read about actual disasters.
- amiga-workbench 8y agoIts a hypothetical that I have experienced on several projects now, project managers can have a totally warped understanding of agile in that they think they can change course at any point and it won't have any resulting costs in either time or complexity.
- greglindahl 8y agoSounds like you could have written a much better article than this one, then! Cautionary tales are much better when they're real and not imaginary.
- sctb 8y agoThanks, we've reverted the submitted title to that of the article.
- madeofpalk 8y agoIm curious, what was the original headline?
