> So you do meetings on Tuesday or Thursdays, and rather than doing one thing a day, in fact you do one big task a day and many small tasks. That's all fine and good, but 1) it's not really what the OP's post says, and 2) it's not really very revolutionary at all.
I would go further than saying this isn't really very revolutionary, rather it describes a fairly normal working environment.
- GFischer 12y agoUnfortunately, there are a lot of dysfunctional working environments out there, where this wouldn't be considered "normal". Of course, in those environments, developers cannot say "no", they can either keep working under whatever unreasonable constraints they have, or quit. (I've found this a lot more common in companies where the main focus isn't software development) I agree it's not very revolutionary, but I still find it useful to read about how other people organize their teams and how it works, and very especially what tools they use (Slack and a few others are on my to-try list).
