The idea of trying multiple things and seeing what works is a good one, and doesn’t imply NHST logic.
Doesn’t sound like that’s what your quote is talking about though: they describe sharing ideas and “letting the group find the right answer.” Sounds like mob rule to me...
- nitrogen 8y agoThe quote does seem to explain why I now see many engineers turning first to blog posts rather than official documentation for projects, ignoring the experience of more senior team members, and diving into half-baked designs rather than thinking in advance about possible pitfalls. So maybe overapplied Agile is also a generational phenomenon [or maybe there's just a meta-eternal-September when prior generations realize it's eternal Septembers all the way down and every generation makes the same mistakes]
