Software engineering topics I changed my mind on
Have never agreed with a blog post more. Every single bullet point, 10/10.Okay, okay, actually I have one qualm~> Standups are actually useful for keeping an eye on the newbies.Unfair. Standups are useful for communication between a team in general, if kept brief. If senior engineer X is working on Y and other engineer M has already dealt with Y (unbeknowst to X), it's a great chance for X to say "I'm currently looking for a solution to Y" and for M to say "Oh I had to solve that same problem last month!"Seniority has nothing to do with this. Communication/coordination/knowledge-sharing matter at all levels.
