This feels like a winning strategy

That ended much better than initially anticipated. Thanks.

... for now.

Moving the needle is so satisfying

Thanks for the education, and no worries! We all get a bit cranky sometimes.

Off to do some research!

You are correct in the first part. It's always good to learn things. Do you have anything to teach?

The sun is not the biggest star around

Think of the environment!

Less Delta-V to eject them from the solar system.

Yeah. I bet he wasn't looking for a Boeing maintenance video.

I fully agree. It's supposed to be the scrum masters job to keep that away from the devs so that they can focus.

Management and other stakeholders are also supposed to be in agreement on both the agile method, and also the book of work for the sprint.

Obviously, if some priority changes mid sprint which is important, the team can agree to pick it up at the expense of agreed upon deliverables

Yes. Yes it is. Well, sort of... Basically it's getting a physical deliverable out of the door in a set time frame. Your team agrees that they can do all the work to bring a feature, x, up to spec and out of the door in (usually) two week increments.

However, that requires some caveats. The work is agreed upon by all parties that it's doable - including testing, debugging and deploying. No other work (with the exception of fires etc) is to be introduced to the team in that period. All the dependencies have been highlighted and accounted for. There is a solid, agreed upon definition of done.

However, corpos don't follow this

Convention is to use the language extension (eg. .py, .sh, .rb, etc.), but I just put my scripts into my '$HOME/bin' directory without. Chmod 700 them and they can be used in my terminal.
