Does everyone need to have read it though, in order to understand its premise?
Surely they were at least aware of the basic premise that adding people doesn’t necessarily speed up delivery?

- dgellow 5mo ago> Does everyone need to have read it though, in order to understand its premise? Yes, it isn't a long read. You can reduce the book into one sentence if you want but that's a very low resolution understanding of the discussion at hand. Why is adding people not speeding up? Assuming that's true, what can be done about it? Why people still believe that adding more people will actually be beneficial? Also, it's just generally a good read. Engaging with nuance is essential IMHO, in a world where AI is incentivizing us to summarize everything
