Video on futurism

Thursday, June 24th, 2010

Oh, I know, it’s just a bit of emotional blackmail. But I couldn’t help but post this video as a nice short piece on the future to either send shivers down your spine or give you a misty gaze off into the distance.

Scrum sucks… or some great videos on real agile and lean software production.

He he. I’m sure I’ll get someone’s attention with that…

Obviously, scrum doesn’t suck, it’s just a large number of people misunderstand it, and get taken advantage of by ruthless ‘trainers’ who promise to solve all your problems with their magical new process. Maybe a more apt title would be “process sucks” but I like to enrage and make massive over generalised statements so there we go.

To back me up though, I am going to post these great talks by Dan North that I found recently. I’ve always been a big fan of his blog, and his articles about BDD and story analysis are massivly insightful.
