waterfall:

• you want to go to mars
• plan to build a rocket
• sign contracts with vendors for every tiny part
• shit we didn’t need most of those parts but it’s too late
• continue to follow the plan anyway
• you now have a rocket but it doesn’t really work properly because parts needed shims to work together because the brochure didn’t mention that and the people making the plans weren’t actually building anything and also you actually wanted to drive to the beach

So most are Lean development?

I don’t care how we get him there - as long as we don’t give Elon a rocket to get back.

This was all pretty unrelatable. Makes me wonder if the author has ever studied how these methods are supposed to work.

Everywhere I’ve worked has been the last 4 combined.

Why do we like to pretend waterfall is this great old way to do stuff that had no problems at all?

Where does SAFe fall into this?
