Hi Amir, I don't have enough evidence to support your "most teams" assertion and I would go beyond just "developers", but I agree with most of what you write. ...
I'm jumping into this late. I apologize if I repeat anything others have already said, but I'm just not going to read this whole thread ;-) I think Amir is...
I don't think we have yet covered the notion of how one teaches (or learns) innovation.. and how that intersects with the "Agile" movement. The Suzuki violin...
You put a group of well-rested smart people in a room and ask them to solve a problem. Feed them good food, make them exercise and play, and make them go home...
Hi Amir, ... Agreed. ... Agreed - although the distinctions are often nowhere near as clear cut as just doing one of these by itself. ... Agreed. ... Yes. ... ...
Hi Marvin, ... I think everybody has been seeing it as a minimum requirement, rather than an immediate cause. Innovation requires time. When people implement a...

Hello, Ged, I agree with you: The price of true agility is eternal vigilance. For NoSQL, I am the believer of the saying: for programming tools: the more, the...
No problem, thanks for informing me of the reason. I see you are going to attend LSSC2012. I will be there as well. See you in person then. Thanks, Helen ... ...
Hi, I'm sorry I jump into the middle of the discussion: I will have to admit I haven't read everyone's views so I wont address any. This quote however: I think...
Joakim, Thanks for that. It's a great video. You Tube linked that to a Steve Johnson video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NugRZGDbPFU&feature=related He...

Hi Patrick, The concept that Michael Kennedy talks about is quite relevant to hardware decisions, but I am not quite sure where they would fit in software - ...
I believe that trade-off curves should be used to preserve the knowledge about the business impact of the software that we produce. The purpose is to solve a...
I wouldn't necessarily call it the smallest possible effort. I would say that they got the most RETURN on their effort. The smallest possible effort would have...

Hi folks, So I'm a bit confused about cycle time and lead time as it applies from their original meanings in manufacturing to the SW development process. I'm...
Hi Ben, When I was studying for certification at APICS (American Production and Inventory Control Society), where I received a Fellow certification, the term...
Hi Mary, Thanks for the prompt response and for clarifying why the terms are what they are. That I know they are the same terms used for different things makes...
