No, that is not obvious, more than you making money from corporate agile, which few software engineers seem to actually like. Too many meetings is one of the most common criticisms.

Playing "poker" at work and having agile helpers sounds like extreme dysfunction.

The LLM can replace the kinda smart "business person" easy before it replaces the computer scientist. Generating a kinda smart prompt in human language is really easy compared to good computer programs. LLM will write slide decks

Employers need to increase the sign-on bonus. Relocating for at-will employment is very risky.

It costs nothing amortized over the hundred hires you wouldn't fire in the first month. If you fire often, this law is good to stop you from doing that.

Not really. Giving employees the choice to work from home or not is the opposite of controlling them. Just like giving employees the option to work only forty hours a week is not controlling them but giving them liberty. It's such a go

It has nothing to do with getting your way but working efficiently and with respect for the autonomy of your colleagues. That's a bad argument. Sounds like we should not work from the office then. What comes after the "I like maki

You don't need an argument for a preference. If you try to coerce other people according to your preference, you need an argument, as you would in any other context. For some reason, the RTO arguments are very bad. Is there some part t

They have plenty of other office workers to talk to. For some reason, that is not enough, and the office workers need a better argument than "real product development happens at the water cooler". For the employer to make an infor

Unfortunately I suspect you might be right about that. Water cooler talk and synergies might mean I like you being forced to talk to me.

No, I am not controlling anyone in that case. I am treating other people as professionals and letting them structure their work the way they think is best. Maybe it would be even better for me if they all worked from home, but I am not tell

I think there is a big difference advocating for what's best for you and letting everyone else do their thing, and trying to control other people to please you better.

Office workers want to push the office on everyone. Remote workers are not trying to push office workers to work from home.

I think all of them still allow full remote. Unfortunately not everyone gets that anymore, in spite of the pandemic showing that WFH was fully efficient.

It seems like a tool for plagiarism. You could do the same thing before LLM grew in popularity by using Google Translate back and forth from English.

Engineers communicate just fine at FAANG. I don't see why they need an agile helper in non-tech enterprise. Lawyers don't need agile, and doctors don't. There is no reason why engineers would. The team members are too busy wi

Yes, you get paid to do research and there are theorems delivered. Just like software projects, some never get delivered and you don't know when if they're not trivial.

What qualifications does a "scrum master" have that a software engineer does not have when it comes to creating a self-managing team? The "scrum" pamphlet can be read on a lunch break and I don't think the certs eve

Why do you need a "scrum master" to prevent that? Linux kernel seems to be doing just fine without them. The real solution is of course not to have any "sprints" at all. A manageable chunk of work is a 3 to 6 month proje
