@theLeanKid Hope it's going well!

[Richard Powell @theLeanKid]

Today is the day! Its the start of a distributed 5 day event across 10 countries, 4 timezones and 80 participants! So excited. Starting in 2 minutes with a live Inspect and Adapt opener 🙂

It says something about a country when the people providing clear communication, innovative solutions and decisive decision making are the people who run the supermarkets.

Just looked at https://t.co/pXqInNXFFB to solve remote team PI planning challenges and it's pretty damn good... #scaledagile #SAFe

[Murad James @7Northfield]

@almudenarpardo @agiletourlondon Again, I have tried to get there and work prevents me! Good luck, I hope it goes well.

Every additional bit of security means "twice as hard to break".

The cost to break 256-bit RSA is seconds on a modern computer.

The cost to break 256-bit AES is on the order of magnitude of the energy released by a billion supernovae. https://t.co/1HOFErKqFh

'"Agile is a mindset" isn't very helpful in most situations. It tends to come across as slightly ineffable, and even slightly elitist. When we talk about values and principles, we are talking about "how we do things around here" - and that's culture, not mindset.' -- Guy Maslen

I've been too busy to tweet. That's saying something...

[Murad James @7Northfield]

@ipreuss @Scottmcl @allenholub @CoreyCondardo Indeed it is - we start teams on Kanban and move them to Scrum when they are ready.

[Murad James @7Northfield]

@almudenarpardo @ScaledAgile I like this!

#SAFeSummit keynote from Dean himself... @ScaledAgile

America. Justifying the virtue of rich people by making up stories about their immense, personal sacrifice. The world is full of poor people who are also sleep-deprived, and suffer the health and mental consequences for it, but they rare use the fact as some fucking trophy.

[Murad James @7Northfield]

Thrilled with my new @MOO business cards!

When will companies realize that Accenture & McKinsey, and other large firms are not actually good at modern software dev?

Shop small. There’s a ton of small shops out there that would have KILLED this, and also done it for a fraction.

Oh good - I've just proposed "measuring the number of live releases in the last 3 months" as a rough guide to a team's agility - so this is handy!

[Tim Ottinger @tottinge]

“the world’s simplest agile maturity model” https://t.co/hYb4mzhJDP -- Interesting.

[Charity Majors @mipsytipsy]

The inability to push to prod (or fear of pushing to prod) is the symptom.

The fact that recovering from a deploy gone sideways is often a harrowing, multi-day event is the problem.
