The Post-Mortem Problem

소프트웨어 엔지니어링에서 포스트모템(post-mortem)은 흔히 형식적 절차로 전락해 실질적 학습 도구로서의 역할을 하지 못하는 문제가 있다. 효과적인 포스트모템은 사건 직후 감정과 맥락이 생생할 때 빠르게 작성되어야 하며, 단순 로그 나열이 아닌 사건의 경험을 이야기 형식으로 전달해야 한다. AI는 사건 요약과 초안 작성 같은 반복 작업을 지원할 수 있으나, 분석과 교훈 도출은 인간이 주도해야 한다. 또한, 포스트모템 작성 기준을 낮추고 읽기 기준을 높이며, 후속 조치를 구체적이고 책임 있게 관리하는 문화가 중요하다.

The post-mortem problem | Blog | incident.io

Post-mortems are one of the most consistently underperforming rituals in software engineering. Most teams do them. Most teams know theirs aren't working. And most teams reach for the same diagnosis: the templates are too long, nobody has time, nobody reads them anyway.

Many teams fall into Zombie #Scrum: Dailies become status updates, retros lack outcomes, stakeholders vanish. Nina Nitzsche shows how agility loses credibility—and what steps bring it back to life.

Agility rarely fails because of its principles—but because of how they’re misapplied. Nina Nitzsche shows how trust, transparency, and clear responsibilities prevent Dark #Agile—and why leaders hold the key.

Ask yourself:

"Am I, by using or promoting this tool, indirectly supporting and legitimizing people or ideologies I find harmful?"

Every contribution is a vote for the kind of community you want to support.

When toxic leadership or communities become a haven for people with abhorrent views, it:

- Drives away good, diverse contributors.
- Gives bad actors platform, influence, and legitimacy.

Dev Culture Is Dying The Curious Developer Is Gone

From tinkerers to metric seekers: How the shift in developer culture is impacting innovation and creativity.

„Zombie #Scrum“ führt zu Apathie, „Dark #Agile“ zu toxischer Kultur. Nina Nitzsche beleuchtet, wie beide Muster Teams ausbremsen – und warum nur echte Selbstorganisation Burnout und Frust verhindern kann.
