The trick is to finish slightly ahead of schedule and spend the free time learning, refactoring, exploring new ideas, testing tools, automating stuff, etc.

- pm90 5y agoWhenever I’ve seen teams formalize this, it’s been cut down by someone higher up who wants to show how they’re saving costs or making the team more efficient. It’s possible I’ve only worked at bad organizations, but I’m willing to bet that s the reason why such “benefits” are not formalized. However it then leaves you vulnerable to the naive worker who will voluntarily push all gears because they’re such a hard worker.
