I’m a PM and (perhaps not like the others, but) in my mind the standup is not just the status update, the important bit is to convey any roadblocks or problems you’re facing and the team or the PM can assist to resolve them. I think though,

To those in this thread denouncing these dystopian times my question to you is, how do we as technologists create a meaningful and successful career changing this? I’ve been against this for a very long time and can’t see any easy way to co
