The point of dailies should not be to make sure that devs work on the right stuff, that should be part of managing backlog and sprint plannings. Instead the point of dailies should be to avoid devs hitting head on wall and clear out any blockers for progress. Having reserved timeslot for syncing also should reduce random pings during the day which should allow people then to focus more on their tasks instead of getting interrupted all the time.
- cauch 2y agoAgreed, but in practice, I think needing to wait for sprint planning is very time-wasting and in practice not efficient. If a dev has worked 3 days in the wrong direction, they will naturally try to salvage some of the bad things, or even try to pretend that their solution is "the only way". It can be negotiated, with more or less success, but the negotiation itself is a waste of time if it could have been caught earlier. 100% agree with planning the meeting to avoid flow interruption. It's strange to see so many people here saying that you can just "ask whenever" when the argument about avoiding interruption is brought so often.
