    In the end, the project manager is taken away to an asylum where he continues to tell the inmates, "I want to run an agile project."

    The video has a message. Most comments about the video miss the point of how difficult it is to change old ways. It takes time and a lot of effort to introduce new ideas and the video demonstrates some of the roadblocks that are likely to be encountered when trying to improve business processes in enterprise environments.

      I think the man's repetition of his dream to run an agile project is just a take on humour which you completely missed. EDIT: I could be wrong, I am autistic and want to run an agile project.

      New ideas and change are not necessarily helpful.
      Agile turns create people into factory workers and creates an aggressive atmosphere.

    This was not about running Agile projects, it was about the obstacles and the politics of corporate entities and their reluctance, inability to appreciate anything that is not "according to the book". That it particularly applies to Agile transformation is also true.
    The, "I want to run an Agile project.", statement being shorthand for the whole raft of painful explanation that is undertaken; the cartoon would have been several hours long to have inserted in full description of scrum / XP etc.

    Oh, and the binary conversion module was written by a novice programmer coding in C. He was an ex-air force pilot, flew C5-A's, did the Ethiopia/Somali airlift circa 1992... It was his first shot at coding in C. I let him code for two weeks w/ a 21 days book. I then taught him about unit testing & coding small & he had a working FAST system after 2 more weeks. We fleshed it out bit by bit, hacking as we went. The VP laughed his ass off, I didn't even know WTF a bookkeeping sanity check was....

    Why should it be so dificult to do(implement) the right thing?
    Three cheers for all those project leaders who work towards building better software development environments.

    It was very maintainable. It was written first as pseudocode, with a RAD dbms toolset. It was maintained by several subsequent developers & even ported into C++.
    We discovered that we could develop more quickly if we would pseudocode an entire process narrative & then drill down into the stack from there.
    We abstracted better, we refactored better, & the systems didn't break.

    This is why the only way to set up Agile is in a separate business unit that has adjusted governance to act like a seperate business with all of these functions at arms length with the funding already allocated for outcomes, it's really that simple.

    @codematrix Před 12 lety +2

    I've been involved with a few companies that run Agile projects relatively succesful. However, I just can't stand them from an architectural perspective. Through out time the architecture starts to suffer and becomes increasingly complex. This is becuase most companies don't want to spend the right time to refactor a set of complex constructs that spand beyound 1 or 2 sprints.

    Long time ago I sat down & wrote a data warehouse/mart (circa 1997). Did it in 3 months, by myself, had it cranking thru 1 GB/day of phone log data for traffic analysis, etc. It had to crank through mounds of binary switch, then converted ASCII, data on an already existing 486 Win NT4 box w/ RAID5 SCSI. Did it in 16bit FoxPro, on a $25,000 budget.
    Then the IT Dept showed up. They brought in Oracle & a "PLAN." They shat $2 million down the hole trying to create the same thing & it didn't work.

    You sir, must be a relic of the Cobal generation. I have been on Agile projects for almost a decade and have yet to have a failed project. I have worked with many contractors who used waterfall, and all but one of those projects failed! Please explain how getting itterations to the customers sooner causes failure. The way I see it, it develops a far superior product because the team is able to actually react to change, vs. delivering a useless brick. If it's so bad, why does MS use it?

  • @jewelmarkess
    @jewelmarkess Před 12 lety +1

    @codematrix This is my problem with the whole "agile development". One needs time to design and think about the architecture of the whole system, then you can get to development. Also, why deliver untested code to customers? It works in some cases, but not all projects lend themselves to breaking up in smaller tasks that you can deliver tested every 2 weeks or so. Anyway, in this video the guy isn't making his argument convincing "I want to" is hardly good rationale.

    Agile can actively manage risks and simultaneously add value to the business while completely meeting the requirements of regulators, auditors and agents of control. What amazes me is that this way of thinking is as unbalanced in approach as bureaucratic nonsense. This robot keeps stating that he "understands" needs that he constantly tries to avoid with exemptions and conversations without ever taking the time to show that the concerns of the business as a whole will be met. Good job tangential monotone animation....
