- blfr 24d agoIf you ask them beforehand, you get a self-selecting sample, biasing your result. You get better results by not asking them.
- inanothertime 24d agoSure, you're right. I was rather commenting on the tone that Thoughtworks decided to "take 10 engineers and put them in one room". I took that wording literally, imagining how they grabbed these 10 engineers with a big hand and dropped them off where they wanted them to develop their airline IROps system.
