I used agile before it was cool, back when it was a website and some rebel engineers frustrated at 6-month point patch cycles. In those days everything was a skyscraper, even getting MS Word installed on your company desktop. I hate what it's become and you're preaching to the choir. But some big projects do take real engineering, and coordination, and careful weighing of options before moving forward.
- deltaonefour 5y agoI've worked on these projects, they still exist but are rare. You'll find most of these projects are in high end defense or other embedded systems projects that are highly, highly connected with building hardware. Outside of this kind of stuff, software engineering is easier than most other forms of engineering due to an accepted lower bar of quality.
