It would be nice if standup was actually about asking active questions only because then I wouldn't mentally fall asleep during it. In reality its almost always about just calling out names and hearing someone ramble until maybe you wake up enough to ask a follow-up question.
- randomdata 3y agoYes, once every thousand days (made up, but not too far from reality) when there actually is something for the group to come together and discuss, the standup is a useful tool. Although you're probably better to just schedule the meeting only when there is something to discuss. Gathering everyone each day just to see is kind of wasteful. Granted, that waste keeps people employed. The tech layoffs of late is unquestionably because "Agile" isn't cool anymore, and those hours wasted to standups are now, by and large, put to productive use instead.
