Thomas"Agile" als Vorwand für totale Überwachung?
@[email protected] zeichnet ein düsteres Bild: KI übernimmt das Coding und "Agile" wird missbraucht, um unmenschliche Deadlines durchzudrücken. Nichts mit Empowerment, willkommen in der Feature-Factory mit Turbo-Micromanagement. Das ist genau der Bullshit, der den Begriff "Agil" verbrennt.

Wie sieht's bei euch aus: KI als Helfer oder Sklaventreiber?

People tell me that AI is not going to take my job, but it already did. I was a full stack web developer in the past, you know the guy who knows a little bit of everything. I can't really design my own web stuff, I don't know a lot of UX, I know react just enough to make a web app. And it's very similar on the back end. I haven't done a lot of database plumbing, I know a bunch of frameworks just enough to make it talk to the front end, do some back end rendering and APIs. Now AI does both of the things better than me. It can come up with a generic layout that's going to look 10 times better than I would. It has much more knowledge about databases and can provide instant fixes for common problems. But the worst thing about it, is that it took my job in a way one would never expect. In tandem with "agile" software development it gave people a tool of performance optimization of a ridiculous level. I did not feel at work on my last job, I felt at a factory, I had 0 power to make any decisions or manage my own work in any way, but had to meet 100% of the artificially created deadlines. Why is the project not done in one week? Have you used AI? Let's put you on a performance improvement plan, the micro management you experienced before is nothing compared to that fancy new ultra micro managementTM. I can't remember dev jobs being so soul draining merely 10 years ago. #AI #devjobs #fakeagile #agile
Das war in der agilen Community los (Woche vom 28.11. – 05.12.)
Wir diskutieren, ob "Agile" + KI gerade die ultimative Micromanagement-Hölle erschafft, experimentieren mit fluiden Teams jenseits starrer Silos und suchen verzweifelt nach Tools, die nicht Jira sind. Hier die Highlights 👇

🚀 NBA30 – Warum Agilität nicht tot ist
In a nutshell:
1️⃣ Kritik an „Fake Agile“ & Kommerzialisierung – echte Agilität wird oft falsch gelebt.
2️⃣ „Back to Basics“: Agile Manifest & 12 Prinzipien zuerst verinnerlichen, dann Methoden wählen.
3️⃣ Agile Tech-Tree als Gedankenexperiment: Stufenweise von Manifest → Prinzipien → Frameworks.
❓ Welche Prinzipien holt ihr euch zurück in eure Praxis?

lostprototypePointing is finger pointing.
JassyWhat is your take on the concept of
- Discovery-"Stories"
- Delivery-"Stories"
Any opinion on it? What problem is solved here?
To me, that smells a bit waterfally. Is it just me?

Tormod HalvorsenClaiming “we want agility”, then turning around and asking for the three month deliverable plan.
LloydI can count on one finger the number of product people I've worked with that could answer "more than zero" to this question.
Jaime VisserWhen your tax authorities are working on a national standard to "objectively measure the performance and output of Agile teams" and the workgroup only contains "Agile" coaches, CTO's, Release Train Engineers and other management/consultant roles you just know this is going to be another massive waste of government funds.
