Taking a closer look at this it appears that the word “burnout” is being used incorrectly:
“Estimate stories and plan iterations or go with the flow. Analyze burnout chart or obsess about cycle time.”
These sorts of charts are called “burndown” charts in my experience, not “burnout” charts.
- scottndecker 7y agoAgreed. Feels like something got lost in translation and they meant for the concept of burndown.
- tablet 7y agoYou are taking this chart too seriously. Burndown, burnup, burnout...
- antisemiotic 7y agoI'm not sure if I'm not responding seriously to satire, but are you aware of what "burnout" means? From https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/burnout https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/burnout : "Definition of burnout 1 : the cessation of operation usually of a jet or rocket engine also : the point at which burnout occurs 2a : exhaustion of physical or emotional strength or motivation usually as a result of prolonged stress or frustration b : a person suffering from burnout 3 : a person showing the effects of drug abuse" I mean, by the looks of the landing page, I guess (3) could fit somewhat?
