FWIW, I mostly agree with your article, but I did find myself rolling my eyes a little when you started out reminding us of the origins of "Agile" and its principles, and criticising the rigid frameworks and practices it's metastasised into, but then the first piece of advice about how to "do it better" is to assume a Kanban board... For me, the "What did you do yesterday? What do you plan to do today? Is there anything blocking you?" questions work pretty well, with the expectation than nobody spends more than about 90 seconds answering all three. (This might just be because places I've recently worked haven't had well groomed or curated Kanban boards, but have had a mid and senior-heavy dev demographic?)
