Pliant: Build Your Own Rules Of Thumb

Seeing The Light

What a great post, by an as yet unnamed (I couldn’t locate a name on the blog) software developer realizing that there are people moving on from Agile and he or she is not alone in identifying the “dogma drenched blather of Agilism”.

From the blog:

The bottom line is that Agilism had a few good ideas and might have been the wake up call that the software industry needed to shift our thinking a bit. It’s like the 1960’s. Here come the hippies with all their craziness and feel good nonsense but with a few good ideas. By the 80’s we could see how goofy it all was and even how some things were destructive but it helped change things and release us from stagnation. That’s how I view Agilism, a little goofy but with some good ideas.

I love it when another person agrees with me and all the rest.
