Ryan Campbell » Blog Archive » Adobe Flex and Google AdSense
From site: "I’ve recently launched a Flex-based classified ads product allowing anyone to start a classified ads service. Almost the very first question I was asked was how to place a Google AdSense banner in to their app. It turns out not only was it possible but it was a lot less complicated than I imagined."
James Shore: The Decline and Fall of Agile
A very very (!) good article (and comments) about the declining (and misused) state of agile (mostly scrum).
-
“I think this is very indicative of the desire among managers especially to want to believe in a process or formula, and to fail to recognise the comparitively massive impact of the quality of the people in the team on project outcomes.
Basically, great developers tend to do good work, and bad developers tend to do poor work, and no process or methodology can fix that.
The real problem that successive methodologies have tried to solve is that the majority of professional software developers don't actually know how to write good code.
Scrum is just the latest competence substitute, and it understandably falls just as short as all its predecessors.
Invest in the people, their skills and in helping them to exercise discipline and reward good habits. Sadly, it's not a quick fix, which is why most organisations don't bother.
The missing ingredient from the Agile Manifesto is CRAFTSMANSHIP. It's like a whole bunch of musicians running around trying to look cool and talking about their "art" when the vast majority can't play a major scale. The problem is that teams adopt Agile before they've learned all the "hard skills" that the Agile founders like Kent Beck and Bob Martin take for granted, like OO design. But they talk about software development as if they've mastered it, when all they've really mastered is planning poker and how to run a retrospective. They still write poorly constructed, buggy and ummaintainable code. Because it takes years to learn how to write elegant, well-constructed and reliable code. And why waste years honing those skills when you can get Scrum Certified in a week?
Sadly, all these apprentices don't know what they don't know and simply will not accept that they have much to learn (as do we all!) -
Now many people who call me already have Agile in place (they say), but they're struggling. They're having trouble meeting their iteration commitments, they're experiencing a lot of technical debt, and testing takes too long. So they hire me to help them with one of these things. When I go visit, I see a team that is nominally agile, but is suffering huge numbers of problems and is anything but the joyful, settled, smooth-running workplace I expect from an agile organization.
Other consultants I've talked to report the same experience. "Rescuing Scrum teams keeps me in business," joked one colleague. It's funny because it's true.
