Programmer Anarchy

I came across this refreshing ‘Post Agile Process’ video which revitalizes my earlier email on ‘Test is Dead’.

Here are some key takeaways for me out of this talk:

• No need for testing infrastructure.
  (This is a culture shift and a revolutionary way to solve a lot of problems existing in the software world)

• Break software into smaller more independent pieces.

• Experimentation drives Innovation. (Move fast break things)

• 2 key qualities for surviving in the ‘Modern Developer’ role:
  • Self-Leaner
  • Likes to Deliver (“Perfect” is the enemy of “Good Enough”)

• At times, think of Software development as Manufacturing rather than Engineering.
  (Being a geek, it was a bit mind boggling for me to hear this first but I get the point)

What are your thoughts ?
