In a time where Bigotry is at an all time high renaming India to Bharat seems reasonable to me. Because where's the B in India?

One month into my Software Development role and I already feel this true 😶

Scrum is a cancer.

I've been writing software for 25 years, and nothing renders a software team useless like Scrum does.

Some anecdotes:

1. They tried to convince me that Poker is a planning tool, not a game.

2. If you want to be more efficient, you must add process, not remove it. They had us attending the "ceremonies," a fancy name for a buttload of meetings: stand-ups, groomings, planning, retrospectives, and Scrum of Scrums. We spent more time talking than doing.

3. We prohibited laptops in meetings. We had to stand. We passed a ball around to keep everyone paying attention.

4. We spent more time estimating story points than writing software. Story points measure complexity, not time, but we had to decide how many story points fit in a sprint.

5. I had to use t-shirt sizes to estimate software.

6. We measured how much it cost to deliver one story point and then wrote contracts where clients paid for a package of "500 story points."

7. Management lost it when they found that 500 story points in one project weren't the same as 500 story points on another project. We had many meetings to fix this.

8. Imagine having a manager, a scrum master, a product owner, and a tech lead. You had to answer to all of them and none simultaneously.

9. We paid people who told us whether we were "burning down points" fast enough. Weren't story points about complexity instead of time? Never mind.

I believe in Agile, but this ain't agile.

We brought professional Scrum trainers. We paid people from our team to get certified. We tried Scrum this way and that other way. We spent years doing it.

The result was always the same: It didn't work.

Scrum is a cancer that will eat your development team. Scrum is not for developers; it's another tool for managers to feel they are in control.

But the best about Scrum are those who look you in the eye and tell you: "If it doesn't work for you, you are doing it wrong. Scrum is anything that works for your team."

Sure it is.

You pay (for Twitter Blue) to get paid (via X Monetization). X is wild!

The thing that the Metaverse (AR/VR/XR) would be disrupting in the near future is not digital economy but UI/UX

First day of job and I hear a Italian guy say mamma mia 🤌 live!

From today I'll start journaling the whole process of me building an app along with my fren @JishaCheriyan02 and taking it to the market. Follow this space for daily updates 🦄

[Pareekshit Joshi @pareekshit1620]

I have been thinking of building this one app for a very long time now and as my full time job is starting in another 3 days, now is the right time to start working on it :)

With the recent advances in #AI, #VR and #AR (or how @Apple likes to call it - "Spacial Computing"), It got me thinking are we already in the era of the @netflix anthology series #BlackMirror ? To find answers, I started watching the series again. Will post about my findings 🔍
