Modern agile is just a management framework used as an excuse to micro manage the shit out of your work force.
- imbnwa 6y agoYeah, it's not complicated. What's crazy is the way lots of engineers rationalize all this instead of just being empirical. I think software selects for authoritarian personalities to a degree, who are quite comfortable pretending to be avatars of rule of law (they are merely messagers who can also disavow merely being a messenger) rather than looking at what's actually happening in front of their eyes, like the adversarial nature of most Product teams in most mediocre orgs.
