In some places standups work, in others they don't, and it can change overtime as people move in and out of the team.
Standups don't work when the team isn't getting anything out of them. Perhaps we all know what's going on because its a small team and we all talk to each other. Perhaps. its because we don't talk to each other in or outside the standup. Reeling off a load of ticket numbers without challenge is not communicating.
From the article: standups aim to: "seek out and destroy misalignment". How can we do that without putting the mis-aligned on the spot and making them uncomfortable? I think standups start to fail when we're all being too nice and don't ask the awkward question. After a while we just stop listening.
