Software Architektur im StreamIntro to Beyond Estimates with Woody ZuillLet’s explore the purpose and use of estimates in the management of software development efforts, and consider possible alternatives.
We say we depend on estimates to make important decisions, and yet we’re often disappointed by the results.
Why are we so challenged at using estimates? Are estimates for cost, time, or effort always needed? Is it possible there are other ways to approach our work? If we didn’t use estimates, could we be successful at building software?
The default use of an “estimate-driven” approach is pervasive in software development efforts, and while...2025-02-261h 12

Det blir tankar kring vad det faktiskt är, hur en gör det på bästa sätt, varför det är bra (eller dåligt?) samt hur det funkar att köra remote jämfört med IRL. Dessutom en hel del om verktyg, kunskapssilos, svengelska uttryck och att lära sig vim i en mobb.

Roasting MarshmallowsThe power of the pairWay back in episode 13, we discussed mobbing, or ensemble programming, with Woody Zuill. While we think this topic deserves more widespread recognition and adoption, there’s no denying that pair programming is more well known, and is being done more.Of course, pairing is not limited to just programming. For example, studies have shown that kindergarteners sharing an iPad enables them to learn more and score better on certain tests, most likely due to forcing them to collaborate, which in turn emphasises communication and sharing alternative viewpoints.Collaboration and communication are the key words here, an...2022-03-1551 min
