That is the most amazingly disheartening thread. Apparently, it’s worse than I imagined. Complaints against agile where the specifics are the *same* specifics we were complaining about 25 years ago. I mean:
- X is intent on making people fungible. We said that then!
- X is rewarmed Taylorism. Taylor was *our* whipping boy!
- Micromanagment. We were all about “self organization”!
- Empty ceremony. That too.
Damn you all, all you who made it a management fad. https://kolektiva.social/@iarna/110894973836673348
